Greatihex: Wolfsburg are not in semi because they played Madrid. For emphasis vs the same madrid City could only get 2 shot on target in 180mins. I am sure Eibar would have done better than the 4th place EPL team 3 Likes |

raumdeuter:it doesn't back up your claim of Madrid not wanting to take the chance of destroying the easiest opponent they have faced so far. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 12:22am On May 06, 2016 |
Greatihex: WHy would they expend their energy on a team that gave up before kickoff? They just needed a 1-0 win and City wasnt going to score even if they had given them 2 days vs 5 madrid players That is the 4th placed EPL team go check what the 9th placed Bundesliga team did |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Greatihex(m): 12:24am On May 06, 2016 |
raumdeuter:but mancity were in the semi because they played psg, right? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 12:25am On May 06, 2016 |
Greatihex: Yes PSG which is inferior to madrid. Go check their groups |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Greatihex(m): 12:27am On May 06, 2016 |
raumdeuter:just give up on this one. you are not sounding intelligent with this claim. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 12:28am On May 06, 2016 |
Greatihex: Give up on the fact that the 4th placed EPL team cant muster a shot on target for 90mins vs Madrid? What other evidence do you need to know the league is useless 2 Likes |

I'm sure if Liverpool had not qualified, Ibime would have sworn with heaven and earth that Liverpool did not take it serious! |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 4:19am On May 06, 2016 |
homesteady: Exactly. I showed him the team sheets of teams he still said he knew in his mind that they didnt take it serious 2 yrs time they would argue they dont take the CL serious is why they have been woeful there they take the Carling cup more serious |

raumdeuter:and this 9th place team which is stronger couldn't smell semi final? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by LordEmperoris1(m): 6:25am On May 06, 2016 |
Who said madrid can score 10goals if the feel like against city which kind lie be that .. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Nihilist: 6:38am On May 06, 2016 |
LordEmperoris1: Didn't they have 2 goals disallowed? City were disgraceful on Wednesday mehn....utterly disgraceful. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Ibime(m): 6:59am On May 06, 2016 |
homesteady: More to the point, you should be ashamed that a midtable EPL team just sodomised your 4th place La Liga team so badly from start to finish, I thought I was watching Barcelona vs Wikki Tourists. You mean to tell me that crap of a team is 4th in Spain? 4 Likes |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Nihilist: 7:02am On May 06, 2016 |
GBR1: From a purely visual perspective, i.e. watching with my eyes alone, I think Leicester are an attacking team...or to be more specific, a counter-attacking team. When you watch them play, you always feel that they are capable of goals despite ceding possession. Both their games against Arsenal this season are perfect testaments to that - Arsenal had the individuals to hurt Leicester, but could not escape getting wounded by the Leicester team. I'm beginning to digress now. Anyway to try and answer your question, I think attacking intent can be expressed statistically in terms of goals scored and key passes. What do you think? 1 Like |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Nihilist: 7:16am On May 06, 2016 |
sinizia: This is the exact same point that the article is challenging.According to the writer, Individual names can and should mean nothing. It should be about the team. Atletico dont't have a single player in the la liga top 10 goal scorer's list this season, yet they are 2nd on the log, level on points with Barca...and in the UCL finals with Torres upfront. Which coach would take Torres for free? I don't think Leicester and Atletico are that different....Infact I think that they are very similar. Leicester: 64 goals 9.8 key passes per game, Atletico: 60 goals 9.7 key passes per game Some people could even draw an inference from this that Leicester are a more attacking side than Atleti. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Greatihex(m): 7:26am On May 06, 2016 |
Nihilist:fact remains that they could only score 1 own goal in 180 minutes of ucl football against city; a first time semi finalist. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Nihilist: 7:50am On May 06, 2016 |
Greatihex: Its also a fact that Madrid didn't actually need to score more than 1 goal so.... |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Greatihex(m): 8:12am On May 06, 2016 |
Nihilist:so you are telling me that madrid were comfortable to just have 1 own goal (ronaldo happy nt to score), knowing fully well that 1 goal from city can send them parking? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Nihilist: 8:13am On May 06, 2016 |
Greatihex: Did thar city team look like they could score the one goal? Or more to the point, did they? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Debroslink: 9:02am On May 06, 2016 |
Ibime: Villarreal are through to the UCL next season, Liverpool ain't. So they took the match for granted. Let's see what Liverpool will do against a non top 4 side like Sevilla. I'll take them serious if they can manage to beat Sevilla. 1 Like |

LordEmperoris1:Honestly, Madrid would have scored more if City were interested in playing in a UCL final.Right from the get-go of both games, it was evident that City was content in being in a UCL semi-final.Why would Madrid break a sweat when City had already given up before kick-off when we have tougher games coming up against Valencia and a then possible UCL final with Atletico. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Greatihex(m): 10:33am On May 06, 2016 |
Krasid:look at the statement people who claim to be intelligent in football are making. |

raumdeuter:Wolfsburg tried no doubt about that but still fact is Madrid was dominating and even had a goal ruled out for offside until Wolfsburg suddenly hit them with a goal from counter. Understandably this disrupted madrid who were still riding the euphoria of their win against Barca leading to frustration that lead to Danilo tackle that caused the penalty that led to the second goal. Madrid tried to gather themselves but Wolfsburg were quite content to sit back and counter them. If Man utd could score two goals against them Madrid could do worse which they finally did trumping them 3-0 |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by pamcode(m): 11:35am On May 06, 2016 |
Krasid:Let face facts here homie . Madrid havent been wonderful of late the last two games or more were gritted out wins with late goals from Bale saving the day. Let say city had really given up before the start of game then madrid would have surely killed them off. Madrid arent the type of team that would let easy outlet for goals to pass by. Ronaldo wouldn't let them do that. So it all boils than to either City didn't turn up for the game and Madrid themselves couldn't take advantage because themselves weren't in a good form or City gave the best they could do against an opposition that was just better than them even though that opposition itself wasn't itself |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by pamcode(m): 11:55am On May 06, 2016 |
Real Madrid forward Gareth Bale, speaking to
BT Sport: "It doesn’t matter who scores or whether it's an own goal or not. The main thing is we have a chance to win the Champions League again. "I felt we were close to killing the game off but couldn’t get clear cut chances. http://m.bbc.com/sport/live/football/35947314?live_variant=nonjs The above is what Bale and others have to say about the match. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by diggz: 12:07pm On May 06, 2016 |
pamcode: The match I saw,Madrid were utter rubbish from start to finish. Mancity actually made it way too easy for them, even with the rubbish Madrid dished out to go through. If I have my way I will substitute this Madrid team for Bayern because they do not deserve to be in this finals. I hope atletico get to win the finals though because they have played the finals already against Bayern. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by pamcode(m): 12:09pm On May 06, 2016 |
Debroslink:By winning europa villareal qualify automatically to the group stage tho so i believe they should have taken that match seriously. Anyway Liverpool should just vindicate EPL by winning the Europa. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by diggz: 12:10pm On May 06, 2016 |
We can also pulse and visualize Mancity with the rubbish they played up against bayern instead of Madrid. I am sure the score line would have bin Bayern 8 - Manshyttie 0 instead of 1 - 0. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by pamcode(m): 12:20pm On May 06, 2016 |
diggz:Exactly bro imagine a personality saying Madrid could have scored more goals If city were ready to be in the finals but couldn’t score more than one own goal tho city didn't turn up. You go fear logic. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 1:30pm On May 06, 2016 |
lordfalcao: They couldnt smell the semi because they played Madrid, If City had played Madrid in the quarters would they smell any semi |
