I can just see Scouse and Spuds Life putting up their congratulations Charlton threads as we whoop Doncaster 4-0 turning around a 3-0 first leg deficit .....
Fantastic matches and now a mouth watering final. I like both teams and their managers but will be rooting for Liverpool (assuming City win the league) because they so, so deserve something this season. If Liverpool manage to snatch the title I’ll be rooting for Spurs to win the CL.
My Hubby is a Spud & I’m over the bloody moon for him. Especially as he chose to be a CAFC season ticket holder all those years with me when he could have demanded it be the other way around (yeah right, good luck with that). Fantastic couple of nights of football.
Funny thing is that Arsenal might get to the final but be jealous of Spurs. World you bé happy with Charlton in Europa final if it meant Palace in champs final?
City - PL champions (probably), League Cup winners and FA Cup Final Liverpool - CL Final Spurs - CL Final Chelsea - EL Final possibly Arsenal - EL Final possibly Man U - er.............
Would Liverpool be happy with champion's league than league title?
Weirdly (or not) I think the league would mean more given they won the cl in recent memory.
Nice conundrum to have
And City would prefer the CL to the league title! That was their big aim this season

I had this discussion with an Arsenal fan. He'd rather lose in the Europa if it meant Spurs didnt win the CL.
Probably the best thing for English football would be to have Liverpool win the PL and then Spurs win the CL. You could make an argument afterwards that maybe the best 3 clubs in the world reside in one league.
If you were Lucas Moura you'd be mighty p***** off to be dropped from the final having made the contribution he did towards them getting there in the first place!
Don't get me wrong I rate Kane highly but can he just walk straight back in because he fancies it?

Son (on tonight's performance) would be more likely to be dropped anyway

Kane has to be in the side. The one who shouldn't be is Dele Ali who is a shadow of his former himself.

The magic of the champions league, a team with a tv income x20 that of the other wins out. Sets up a battle of the champions of 1990 against the champions of 1961
Quite right - the ‘Champions League’ is a complete misnomer. But maybe it has a better ring than the ‘Top 4 League’.
All that said, I like both Spurs and Liverpool, in part because of the lack of recent league success but also because of the genuine heritage of both clubs and for what Klopp and Pochettino have brought to the English game.
As to the match itself, Ajax perhaps paid for a lack of experience when the heat was on and, much as I was delighted at Spurs’ late winner, it is sad that the break up of Ajax’s young team is probably imminent. This was their moment before the best young talent is snapped up by the self-perpetuating Champions League elite.
A second night of fantastic drama, when all looked lost for Spurs and a fascinating final to look forward to. The only down side is that it will ramp the Premier League, Sky and tabloid hyperbole up a notch, especially if Arsenal and Chelsea make it an all-English Europa Final as well.

Not sure that I'd agree with that mate.
Thought that Ali looked back to his best tonight, and his lovely little pass set up the winner.
Would agree that he has plateaued a bit, but he does have a lovely touch and awareness around the box, if he could get back his goalscorring habit, then he would be very useful to the England team again.

Yes, I agree......by his standards he had a surprisingly poor game last night.

Brilliant the difference between the games is Liverpool dominated from start to finish spurs had a go 2nd half and we’re like a different team - your not supposed to have them but spurs would probably be called my 2nd team always like to see them doing well and in recent years they have quite a few England boys playing for them. if arsenal could manage to get themselves knocked out tonight or failing that get to final against chelsea and giroud scores the winner would please me immensely.
Don’t really get the hate for spurs and there manager he was tasked with bringing champions league football to whl within 5 years he’s surpassed that and he’s in the champions league final with a 0 spend in last 2 transfer windows, you can’t ignore that

Not having won the title since 1961 is a start.
Most hated London club(by the London fan base) by an absolute country mile.

@ElfsborgAddick not for me apart from the obvious millwall and palace arsenal run pretty close maybe different eras but I find there fans petulant and self entitled.
Regarding the final it’s a fucking disgrace.

I bloody LOVE football.

Fantastic couple of nights of football.
Kane could be fit for the CL final. That would be a massive mental boost for Spurs, good news for the Nations League too

All rather ironic, given our exit from Europe...
Imagine!

will be a cracking final.
