No dey cap, Oga. When Liverpool eliminated man city in the UCL that year, Liverpool were just having a resurgence after being away from the champions league for many years. Heck, they even played in Europa the season prior. Man city were clearly everyone's favourite to progress. Stop those nonsense talk of how many champions league person get. Inter has 3 ucl and man city has none, so by your logic Inter is the favourite in this final?

Last season also, City were most people's favourite to reach the final, but Madrid beat them. No dey reason like this abeg.
Na English be your problem.

Madrid is the most successful club in UCL with 14 titles. Liverpool is the most successful English club in UCL with 6 titles. Yet, you called these two clubs that are much bigger than Man City wey never win spoon for Europe underdogs against City in the CL.

I see you don't know what underdog means, calling two of the biggest clubs in a tournament underdogs.

In this season's final, there are no favorites, but Man City has higher chances of winning. Based on achievements, Inter are the bigger club.

In yesterday's game, more people predicted a win for Madrid than they did for Man City.

Madrid, being the biggest club in the tournament, were the favorites to win yesterday.

He is a genius, but you will be a fool to call for the same players to play for Chelsea without Pep overseeing things. That's the naivety of leprous fingers

I was actually handing Ibime a lifeline on Rodri and the Robust DM issue but Baba no wan gree grin
Rodri is actually a Robust DM, if we are being honest here. He has the right mix of physicality and aggression. The man is a tank at 6'2, strong in duels and regularly uses his size in shielding and retaining the ball.
Na my own be that. I wonder if Ibime can offer some clarification on what the qualities of a Robust DM are, so we can identify and differentiate them from the weakling DMs grin grin

I'm telling you what I witnessed in the viewing center where I watched the game yesterday. I don't care about your odds as I don't gamble.

Maybe Madrid was the underdog yesterday then if you don't know who an underdog is.

What you witnessed in the viewing center is meaningless. How can favourites be having 5 odds while the other team a measly 1.50? You think bookies are stupid that they will give favourites 5 odd or what. Madrid were never favourites yesterday. Even at their home stadium they had the higher odds than City. City have been the favourites all through the tie.

You've not made any single sense so far. So a team with 14 titles at the semi-finals coached by arguably the best manager in the tournament isn't the favourites, but another one with zero titles are.

So Madrid was the underdog yesterday abi? Check what underdog means in a dictionary before quoting me unnecessarily.

The bookies even gave Madrid 6 odds yesterday ,that should tell you who was the underdog

Being the most successful ucl team doesn’t mean you are the best team in the world currently.

He is robust except recovery pace. Everything else is agenda from people looking for banter. My only problem with him is his ability to get back in time, which is an important aspect of DM work, which Pep has made allowances for.

My point is very clear - Rodri inability to track back in time will not achieve the same consistency as a Fernandinho and that is evident in all the defensive numbers comparatively. Everything else is banter from clowns who want to turn every discussion into trolling.

Ibime:

And don't compare your useless Jogginghoe to Rodri. Rodri would never hide from the ball, he can ride players off his back regularly and controls the ball in order not to be exposed on counterattack, and he has body strength to claim the ball in duels, long legs and height that limit his weakness only to foot races which Kyle Walker is kept back as a safeguard against. Your Jogginghoe does none of that, except when he is playing against Crotone. He is weak on foot races, weak on using his body to claim the ball, weak on jumping to win the ball, weak on riding players on his back, weak on absolutely everything but belleface back-to-sender football which means more pressure and more ways to hurt our midfield, not just foot races

Clowns. Getting higher odds means that their opponents have more chances of winning. That's simply probability and doesn't make the team an underdog.

So, against a Man City with zero CL titles, Madrid, the defending champions coached by the most accomplished manager in the tournament, were the underdogs. Lols.

So, if Madrid had won yesterday, you'd call that an upset. Lols, clowns full this thread sha

As of now, only a clown puts Madrid and underdog in the same sentence as far as UCL is concerned.

Some people might expect their opponents to win a game, that doesn't make Madrid an underdog. Do you even know underdog means? I don't think so.

Teams you can call underdogs in the UCL are Celtic, Shakhtar Donetsk, Club Brugge, and the likes.

Stop saying nonsense.

Because Madrid have won 50 ucl they cannot be an underdog to man city with zero ucl and a better team than them currently ?

Madrid winning yesterday won’t be an upset and that doesn’t stop them from being an underdog ,despite the achievements both are big teams so no upset

But there is a reason the so called under dog have 1.50 odds and the so called superior team have 6 odds

If this isn't an upset, then why will they be termed underdogs?

Do you think the absolute opposite of favourites is underdog?
