I don't think it can be understated what Leao did on that assist to Giroud. There aren't many players that are capable of just cruising through a defense like that. I know dude was Serie A player of the year last year so he isn't flying under the radar or anything but the man is a STAR and should be mentioned as such.

All that and i still think Napoli could have at least tied up the series. The PK miss on both ends aside, they were non stop pressuring Milan the whole second half. Great defensive stand from Milan.

Also crazy how good Rodrygo is, i think Vinny is the best winger in the world which is the only reason people aren't gawking at how good Rodrygo has been. Benz + Vini + Rodrygo is the best from 3 in the world. They are all direct and dangerous and fearless.

If Felix doesn't get scooped up by Newcastle then I can see him playing in the MLS

All these years you guys have been blaming Simeone for his struggles when in reality he was just an overrated player.

 

[Verde Shuttles]

That's a lot of jargon

 

[rolaholic]

Would be glorious having it hosting both legs of a CL semi tie

 

[Verde Shuttles]

That Bayern midfield looks light?

 

[rolaholic]

Kind of a weird XI leaving the likes of Davies and Muller when they need 3 goals at least...

Also felt Mane should've for sure started today after the last match but I guess the optic reasons are more important rn

 

[Armada]

Same 11 as last match no changes.

the ref mic'd video is dope indeed. Does amazon have viewership rightss] to Ligue 1? I've seen several videos now with their watermark. I've been missing out

 

[cs02132]

No Muller again

Still think there's a potentially great player in there but yea he hasn't put it together yet at club level for different reasons.

Don't think a poor loan spell in a terrible situation at Chelsea should be enough to write him off imo.

Think he'll need a fresh start elsewhere though to really kick on.

Always rated Kempes

It didn't exactly hurt them in Qatar but definitely would love to see him in the current Albiceleste set up with someone like ADM nearing the twighlight of his career.

Uphill battle for Benfica at The San Siro today...

It's for balance. They want to score without further conceding.

 

[Coupé It]

I’ll tell you guys one thing…

Watch Chelsea fans get rid of Todd Boehly before United fans get rid of the Glazers.

WATCH

well vtotheinay said davies has a sprained heart so that might be why
also davies was terrible in the first leg and cancelo is much better option to handle city's press

 

[rolaholic]

Sprained heart

 

[rolaholic]

Fans can get rid of billionaire owners now??

 

[fluid hips]

Pep disasterclass?

He got cooked on the counter by Silva especially but before the floodgates opened he was the main outlet in attack for them. Cancelo doesn't have the same recovery speed though so not sure how much of an upgrade that is defensively...

Maybe it is a mental thing and a motivated Cancelo against Pep is worth taking a chance on.

Think they're gonna miss Muller's creativity too again

 

[MetalMario]

4 CBs by pep again. The tactics game is crazy. Gonna be studied for a while
