These sevilla boys are just useless. They should have decided this match tonight but can't just make their chances count. They have themselves to blame when they are eventually eliminated.

No be lie..Them dey play like say them don forget say na Champions league them dey..On the Flip side though,Jose Mourihno time don pass,he just dey shagidi ni

Kante whaaaaaaaaat?

007author:
Useless cheats. Look at the way that unless Alba is starring at Suarez.

This is actually very funny..I was laughing when Suarez and Alba went down..It was so obvious they were trying to waste time..Everyone does it though only that they made it so obvious..See their teeth.

So Ronaldo has never scored at Stamford Bridge before despite spending 6 years in England?



Yet Messi was subject to Trolls all over for not scoring against Chelsea..




Answer these Trolls at your own peril.

2009: Messi assist- Iniesta goal


2018: Iniesta Assist - Messi goal.

Highest goal scorers in.the Champions League against English Oppositions


Messi: 18 goals
Ronaldo: 11 goals

Muller: 9 goals

Rivaldo: 8 goals


Eto: 8 goals.

Also We should thank Chris and Azpi for that pass and madness..We never really looked like scoring in.that 2nd half..It was a masterclass from.Chelsea..We kept doing the same thing over and over again and Kante and the Chelsea Defence kept.forcing Messi further away from.the danger zone..We kept moving the ball around and the passes were slower and less intricate,No one was moving,We were only passing from one wing to another,Iniesta to Jordi Alba,Jordi Alba crosses the ball to no one,Chelsea looses the Ball and We repeat the same.thing,this time trying Roberto's wing and Messi.
Whereas I like the fact that the We are playing better away in the Champions league(Na this time last year we chop 4 away), I also believe EV still has a lot of work to do in the CL this season.and resting key players in the league would b a Fuuuucking start!.

Dembele couldn't have played in this game.. No way..He was warming up when we were a goal down..Suddenly Chris misplaces a pass and Azpi wanted to form superman and lunged in...Messi scored.
Dembele was planned to come on and try make something happen(I.e a goal)..Since we scored the goal there was absolutely no reason to remove Rakitic(Who had a bad game though) and expose the defence again for an attacking player.So Dembele not playing made Perfect Sense.

Nicolars:
We r coming

Low key there's a problem between Semedo and EV..Semedo is suspended for this game against Chelsea..Yet he didn't start against Eibar,Didn't come on until the 88th minute..Not tactical in anyway it was only to waste time..Valverde knows Roberto would start against Chelsea yet he allowed him play almost 90mins straight and yet we have another quality RB on the bench..The fire is spreading low key and I hope it doesn't damage Semedo's confidence and he's also a gem and is even younger than Roberto.

Cuneyt Cakir would refree our game against Chelsea on Tuesday.



He also refereed out 2012 game against Chelsea where we drew 2-2 and got eliminated




He also refereed our 2015 final against Juventus and we won 3-1

Meanwhile Malaga....Loool

ClumsyFlimsy:
I know it's quite hard but I think it's high we start ignoring that Twitter bot


This same lunatic trolls other clubs

I was in Chelsea thread yesterday and the psycho was all over the place


Abeg let's try and ignore him henceforth


The robot feeds on attention

Them no go hear.They'll still reply him and argue all in the name of setting d records straight..I dont know which record,records that are there for all eyes to see..Let them keep replying that Oaf.

Valverde starts them all.

Nawa o.

RoyalBlak007:
I feel Iniesta should be on bench in place of Cou'

[color=#F5A215] Since he'll be playing against Chelsea [/color]

Iniesta shouldn't start..In fact if I have my way I won't mind a draw today..We'll.beat Altletico at d noucamp at it'll go back to 9 points..We have less than 2 days to prepare for Chelsea,I'll prefer he rest all them key players and keep them fresh for Chelsea..Chelsea I'm suspecting won't be an easy nut to crack.

Squad list for Today's game


Denis left out again...Nawa.

Well... As much as anything can happen, I can say that Madrid are through already. Don't expect anything worthwhile from PSG. You know why? They ain't got the mental attitude to turn such a tie around. And, there is absolutely no way Madrid are not gonna score at the Parc des Princes.

For me, the tie is already over.

You'll agree that on their day PSG can score 4 goals easily yea?..Their attack doesn't lack firepower its their defence that is always shaky..So they might concede..And then there's the Coach that makes terrible foolish decisions..Y didn't he start Do maria and Thiago Silva on Wednesday..All in all sha I still maintain its not like PSG are climbing mount everest to go through..They can if they want it.

dmcdad:
The problem for me is that most of these other teams respect Madrid too much. Same way City respected us until Pep came in. Noticed how we always defeated them pre-Pep? And even with Pep although we beat them, but then, they returned the favour.

No respect this season o..Liverpool knows the only chance of silverware is CL..Pepito wants d CL too..Barca go wan die there..Even Bayern would want revenge.So even if Madrid get past PSG it still won't b an easy ride..Main koko b say make we first beat those blue cuuunts from London cos I dey fear that game walahi

monerozi5590:
We would have even score more had CR7 converted the two one on one chances he had.

If not for that crucial save Kross would have been on the score sheet.

We deserved to win.

With this too can I deduce that Madrid would qualify yea?

sebod:
I beg to disagree sir!

City lost to Liverpool because of Stone's error and the injury to Delp which led to the introduction of Danilo. The pairing of Otamendi and Laporte would definitely fare better. That said, Madrid's defence is known to be conceding goals here and there even against the farmers of this world. With KDB in the midfield coupled with the attacking foray of City, they will kill whatever confidence left in Madrid. If there's any team I wish to avoid, that's City. Pep has instilled his style in them. They would press you like mad when off the ball and pass life out of you when on the ball.

Blame Emry and his boys for PSG loss. You can't expect much from a coach that bottled a 5-goal advantage over his rival. Even a team of Barca fans captained by dmcdad and coached by jonsnow92 can't surrender such a lead.

As regards Liverpool, I also believe they stand a chance of knocking out Madrid. Their attacking firepower is better than that of Madrid. CR7 adds nothing to the attack other than....... you and I know that Benzema is a deadwood in attack already. their defence too is nothing better than that of Pool. The strength, ability and agility of Salah, Mane and Firminho would be too much for Madrid to handle.

I can't also write of Spurs at this moment, if they could do it in the group stage, they can do it all over again. There's nothing special about this Madrid team. PSG can only blame themselves for their woes.

My point? Any sound attack minded team with a solid midfield and a decent defence will knock Madrid out in a balanced match devoid of referees one-sided favouritism. Their defence is porous while their attack is not really great.

Despite appearances,I'm actually a very good coach o..Really though I agree with most of what you typed up there,City are actually Challengers mainly because of Pepito but they have their Weakness too..Mainly have your attackers running at their center backs,their center backs are very very vulnerable..We saw Liverpool expose that to perfection..Overall though point is anyone can beat anyone and we won't have a clearer picture until the Semis..I'm just certain Madrid won't retain the title again

monerozi5590:
PSG didn't dominate Madrid in that match.

We had more corners than them.

We had more shot on target than them.

Ball possession 50 50

So tell me how did PSG dominate Madrid?

Do u honestly think that 3-1 scoreline is a factual representation of what happened that day?..

dmcdad:
Relativity beckons... Football is about creating and scoring chances, right? The thing with the less experienced sides is that, they can create several chances, but will they have the ruthlessness to convert? And I also think too much respect for their opponents play a role too, which was why I stated it categorically clear that this Madrid would defeat any team from here on bar Barça.

Now let's do a bit of reminiscing... In the last Clasico, we won three nil, right? And deservedly so too. But Madrid would have killed the game in the first, but they didn't convert their chances. You see? And we went on to win the tie by a good goal margin. The scoreline might have translated to a flawless display from Barça, but for those who saw the game they would attest to the fact that it wasn't a flawless one despite the scoreline as we would have lost the game in the first period.

So, I'll have to reiterate that, conversion of chances matters as much as creating chances. Would they other teams have the ruthlessness to convert their chances against Madrid? That's the question. Tottenham did it in the group stage, but we both know that was then. It's a different ball game now.

Funny thing is Lots of teams this season are creating lots of scoring chances and scoring lots of goals..Liverpool, City comes to mind.. If a team.creates lots of chances,I mean real chances..No matter how profligate,over two legs they would still go through..PSG's problem on Wednesday wasn't structural,meaning it can be fixed next match day..They dominated that game and played well on a difficult away ground..In the second half,Madrid rarely came out of their shell until Ororo's 2nd Fortuitous goal..So It can be fixed and they can beat this Madrid side 2-0..They really can..



Whether they would is another question entirely

tesppidd:
The game against bayern last season comes to mind.

3 offside goals and 2 red cards all against one team.

And then real madrid became the next best thing since sliced bread.

Exactly..The luck they have is incredible..Turn.the table and put Barca in their position and cuuunts allover starts Uefalona trash..Truth however is It wouldn't happen again.this season..Madrid won't defend that title again

phaamsaam:
that madrid defense is suspect big time, so Tottenham can do it again and again, psg really bottled lots of attacking moves. We all know madrid had 13players..thats normalcy

I'm not even mentioning teams that can defeat Madrid..I'm just saying Madrid weren't better on the night and the tie can still b turned around next matchday..

dmcdad:
Aa much as it would be wise to give credit to other teams in terms of how they could match Madrid, it should also be known over the years they've all failed. Yea, Man City are hot, but they are vulnerable at the back. I watch their games and if a team has enough attacking fire power, they would have it hot, and little wonder their game against Liverpool was a goal fest as Liverpool has the necessary firepower to trouble them at the back.

Now imagine an attack like Madrid's against City's shaky backline... It's gonna be suicidal. Liverpool? As much as one has to give them credit for their attacking intent, playing against Madrid would be a not-too-good experience for them. Yes, they would score eachother, but their back line would definitely be more vulnerable ro conceding than Madrid's. What Tottenham did in the group stage they can't repeat against Madrid. Madrid would almost beat them home and away at this juncture. Even the likes of Bayern are a piece of cake.

I reiterate, only Barça have what it takes to take down Madrid. The rest will only try, but they'll fail woefully.

I slightly disagree..Madrid won that game fortuitously..Another refree might have overlooked that penalty given for Kroos.Yes the defender was clumsy and very stupid but another ref would have overlooked..Also the deflection goals and all that..For most of the game PSG had several opportunities to punish Madrid but were profligate and less clinical in front of goal..
Trust Madrid to punish them when the chance came because Madrid had more experienced players and were relatively calmer.

Infact A more clinical PSG in Paris can beat Madrid and turn the tie around..2-0 would turn the tie in Psg's favour so you see its not so bad as first thought.


This Champions league Quarterfinals would be very interesting really and anybody can beat anybody.

In all fairness to Neymar he had a good game.Other attackers just didn't grow into d game as much as expected..Cavanni was off and Mbappe too was overwhelmed by the Pressure.



Experience saw Madrid through that game,Ofcourse with some fortuitous turn of events too but overall Madrid were relatively calmer and took.their chances more.



Emery might be the next coach sacked it PSG dont turn this tie around next CL match day..You can't have a big squad like that after spending that much money,yet making stupid substitutions and finding it difficult to stop the fragile mentality PSG players have..



That team should be achieving better than exiting the CL at the round of 16..

Abeg I'd like to name monickers. Because you can't make mouth like that and refuse to eat your words when things go sour

jonsnow92 (we argued just this afternoon) I really really want to tell you 'I told you so' but I know there's still a 2nd leg so let me not rush

phaamsaam and every other Barcelona fan making mouth that PSG would do this and that, what say you?


People like Royalblack007 and Debroslink said it on this thread. I said it too. I hope Cules that have been making mouth that Barcelona would do this and that to Chelsea learned something tonight. I'm not saying you shouldn't support your team but be cautious. Caution is the key word.


God I know you know I've not made any mouth about how we will beat Chelsea silly, so pls help us eliminate them next week. Amen!

Did u take weed?..Are u basking in d euphoria so much that u are seeing double?..Didnt u see my post just yesterday morning on page 2909 where I urged caution?..Do u have comprehension problem?..No mention my moniker while typing drivel jhor..

Happy Valentine's day.

mcdreeezy:
But 'expectation' and 'wish' are different.

Yeah..The idea is to not b so certain even though I want it to happen.

mcdreeezy:
I still expect Madrid to knock PSG out.

No dey talk Haram for here alagba..Today is the day we have been waiting for..The only expectation is to wish PSG knocks Madrid out with Snake scoring a brace.
