UEFA Champions League 2017-18

[A Lighter Shade of Blue]

Don't forget you've also got Ivan Gazidis who grew up in Manchester supporting City

Anyway, I'll drink to that. Always happy to reminisce about what was a fantastic season following City in the 3rd tier - whether it's the dramatic finale against Gillingham, losing 2-1 at York which saw us plummet to the lowest league position in our history, or Wycombe Wanderers doing the double over us - and The Goat played a big part in it. He wasn't at all popular with some fans during the early part of his City career though. I remember one bloke on our coach to Burnley away that season saying if Goater gets a hat-trick he'll buy everyone on the coach a pint afterwards. I'm still waiting for him to buy mine nearly 20 years later:

One of my favourite seasons ever. Went to 43 league games that year, only missed Wrexham, Chesterfield and Northampton away.


Cosseted fans of clubs that never change division, will in no way be able to understand that. I wouldn't swap that for anything.

While everyone seems to be talking about Liverpool vs Man City, I think Juventus vs Real Madrid could be another epic tie between those two big clubs.

Think that Real will win it.Juve didn't impress against Sp**s and they have some injuries.

Sevilla v Bayern, Real v Juventus.
I'm excited for a great night of football!

Real in full CL mode tonight

Ronaldo doing Ronaldo things. Szcz would've saved that though.

 

[KrissKringle]

It's that man Ronaldo again!

 

[Batman]

You've got to respect his ability. The man is good.

 

[GoonerJeeves]

Dreadful by Juve

 

[razörist]

Ffs I went to the toilet! Anybody have a clip?

 

[Rimaal]

It's that man Ronaldo again!

Won't see his likes again.

 

[GoonerJeeves]

Chiellini trying a Maradona there.

 

[razörist]

How good are Ronaldo and Messi?! If one of them was not part of this time, the other would be best footballer in the world for like 8 years in a row. No other player has been so much better than everybody else for so long, not in my time anyway. Ridiculous. Wonder how good they would have been if they were not playing at the same time.

 

[Juan Matas Beard]

Scored in every CL game. Also got a brace against Dortmund, PSG and APOEL.

I've never seen a player go between looking dire and class on a moment to moment basis like Higuain does.

 

[say yes]

Think I'm just gonna have to start supporting Real.

Life's too short to not enjoy football.

They've been my 2nd favorite side since the moment R9 joined them. It seemed like almost all the non Arsenal players I admired back then became Galacticos.

This is a cracking wee game.

He almost never performs in big games. While at Real, he was invisible during the El Clasicos.
