  • Bayern were much better secomd half, never looked in doubt after the goal.

    Neymar got some front crying. Jacked it in after 60 minutes. One man you wouldn’t wanna be in a trench with. 
  • For Bayern to build this team for less than 100m is incredible work.

    Although they have some expensive subs, not a single player in their starting lineup cost more than 30m.
    They've got some aging players but then also got Sule, Sane, Davies, Gnabry and Coman who shouldn't have peaked yet. 
    Kimmich is quality too, and he's only 25.

    I can't believe Muller is still only 30. He seems to have been playing for 15 years at least. Fabulous player and would love to see him have a crack in the PL before he does retire though.

    I can’t believe Muller is 30. That’s insane.
  • As if things couldn't get much worse for Barcelona right now, they apparently have to pay Liverpool another 5m for Coutinho as an add on after winning the Champions league.

    Allegedly the clause never specified that the win had to be with Barcelona.

    millionaires committing too many fouls ruined what should have been a classic .. the football authorities need to get to grips with persistent niggling fouls which seem to occur every few minutes and spoil the game as a spectacle .. if a player makes a break, gets away, your defence is not in place, then just commit a 'professional foul' .. or alternatively roll around injured hoping for a free kick/yellow card for an opponent, basically cheating .. this happens not just in European prestige games but in lower league and park football .. more yellow cards and and 10 minute spell on the bench for a yellow card please, as in Rugby Union

    No specific thread but in the women’s version of the competition, Lyon will be aiming to win the title for the 5th consecutive year when they face Wolfsburg on Sunday.

    Couldn't find a 20/21 thread but Upamecano is so similar to Sarr, both in being a giant at the back and defensively terrifying and exciting.

    Kylian Mbappe absolutely electric tonight. Carved through the Barca defence.

    Billion pound in debt; Barcelona are a spent force in Europe for now.
    Mbappe with a masterclass in finishing with some great assists from Verratti and Draxler.

    That Veratti assist was brilliant, great feet by Mbappe there too. On fire
