Chelsea 0 Bayern 3

Last 3 visit to London
You deserve every trolling tonight bro!!

Raumdeuter don suffer for Chelsea fans hands.. I don't believe that a club from a farmer's league like Bundesliga can smack Chelsea at home like this.

Bayern will like to be playing in London every week

The world starts and ends in Chelsea's fans reality.


Useless club

Barca's away form in the UCL KO is very worrisome.

It has been an age long problem. Even during Guardiola's years in Barca.


We cannot win UCL with this problem. Things need to change. Camp nou cannot save us every time, especially if the result was too bad away in the first leg or when we play the first leg at the Camp nou.

Let's not forget that ourown Asisat Oshoala is having a very good season.

She scored another hatrick today.

It will be good if they win the female UCL trophy. They are on a very good run of form.

I am not even marvelled by this.
This is something that has been for the past 5 to 7 years. And we know!

But the one that is paining me is when they bring one goal merchant named Cristiano Ronaldo to come and compare to this complete all-round genius of a footballer...

The media and his fan bois...

Dammnn!

cry cry cry
Forget the hype bro!!

Imagine this...

In the next fifty years, when both Messi and Ronaldo have retired, the kids of that time who are unable to watch them play live will resort to YouTube to watch their highlights. They will watch Messi's countless of goals, his breathtaking passes and assists and his mesmerizing dribbles. But as for Ororo's part, they will watch goals, goals, goals until they get tired. By that time, the international trophy theory for him would have died.

Messi's legacy will last longer bro.

Messi is unreal.
That goal drought brought out another amazing fact!
That is.. Since 2014, He has not failed to score in four consecutive matches.
That's Class A consistency.

As per the Anfield debacle. Many people have forgotten that we have done a greater comeback against PSG some years back.

We are the King of extraordinary and the king of extra nonsense at the same time. cheesy

PSG's comeback was more difficult because

* It was a four goal deficit

*PSG scored during the match which put us in a nearly impossible task of scoring up to 3 goals in the last 15 minutes of the match, which we did.

Not to forget that we also overcame a two goal deficit against Milan in 2012, when Milan was still close to their best

Sorry but Atletico Madrid is not Barcelona. Just because you bottled your advantage at Anfield doesn't mean others are as spineless as your team. Atletico are the perfect team to go to Anfield and come out with a result.
I don't have much fate in this Atletico side, they have lost a lot of key players in recent seasons and they are the shadow of the team they were five years ago.

This is not an opportunity for you to troll my team. What happened last year was "unfootballic" And it can only happen once in a blue moon. Even Eyimba won't bottle such opportunity

If you don't watch Messi on a weekly basis, you will never know how great he is.


Imagine the gap between the first and second.. Baba ni father jo

Owner Felipe Moreno understood why the player wanted to go, but he now has to deal with the mess that Barcelona have left behind.

"The truth is that we're very worried. After what happened with En-Nesyri, staying in this league gets harder every day,” he admitted.

The debacle highlights the injustice of Leganes’s position and the total absence of a coherent transfer strategy at Barcelona.

The Madrid minnows have long been hanging on to their Liga status by a thread and the Catalans may have just cut it.

Football is just cruel sometimes, you've gat to feel for Leganes, They were made to pay for Barca's stupidity. Football is like the food chain where the strong feast on the weak

Guys, make we no deceive ourselves

Liverpool will beat Anfield to qualify for the quarters.

Going by their antecedents, Atletico will try to defend the lone goal, but it won't work.

This one of the poorest Atletico's team in recent time

If you are following the trend, for the past five years in England, The clear favorite for the title would have emerged by Christmas.

Things happening in EPL nowadays are not even happening in the French ligue 1

The is not the first time a team is dominating its league and UCL concurrently

Bayern lost the 2012 final and came back to claim the trophy a year later.

Barca won 2 UCLs in 3 years whilst dominating their league

Madrid's UCL treble team also dominated the league at some point

Even Juventus played 2 UCl finals in 3 years.

All these years, why don't you admit that these teams have been heads and shoulders above the rest in Europe. Instead, you condemned their leagues as a whole, Did you just wake from your slumber.

I'm not here to troll Liverpool's defeat because I know they will surely win Atletico at Anfield.

But EPL fans are being beaten in their own game. You cannot accuse other leagues of non competitiveness over the years yet flare up when you are accuse of the same defect using the same formula you used. That's double standard

Man city 100 points, 3 seasons ago 18 match winning run

Man city 98 points, Liverpool 97 points, about 12 matches winning run

This season, Liverpool don win 25 out of 26 matches already, bound to have up to 100 points.

Liverpool and man city just dey tap awoof anyhow

The numbers are just too outrageous. How can you convince the outsiders that EPL is competitive now. Raumdeuter suffered on top Bundesliga head. Despite the fact majority don't even watch their matches, not even the Classical derby. Chop your L

Come to think of it. I can't find any relative reason on why Chelsea fans hate Gurdiola so much. I mean I don't get the connection.

It is normal for :-

a United fan to hate City,
a Barca fan to hate Madrid
a Milan fan to hate Inter
a Brazilian to hate Argentina..

But Chelsea fans hating Gurdiola/city, I don't get it.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Upnepaa(m): 12:10pm On Feb 15, 2020
Some people are just horrible in thinking and mentality.

Many people here see City's recent UCL ban as Pep's lose rather City's . You've forgotten that Pep is not a city fan and he has every legal and moral right to move to any club of his choice.

I don't know why people here can't see this as England's lose than Pep's. If city did not play in Europe, how many English clubs will have the chance of competing for the UCL? Only one which is Liverpool. The only other option is if Chelsea and United could get their transfer targets right and get the necessary players, which is very uncertain.

At the end, it makes it minus one big club for England in UCL.

Y'all don't need to hate blindly. You don't need to hate someone together with his shadow. Hate like a PRO.

Oloshious fellow, no loyalty, after helping them to burn their money, with less productivity (he's been wining local trophies, no CL titles), he now wants to jump ship because they have some problems.

Pap Fraudiola is a failure!
Do you really need this?

You are banking on a newspaper rumor to castigate pep, even if you hate someone, you have to be honourable about it.

�Messi: “Obviously I like scoring and If have a chance I'll take it, but every time I go on to the pitch I'm less focused on scoring goals and more focused on the game. I've never been obsessed with goals."
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by Upnepaa(m): 11:08pm On Feb 09, 2020
E be like say people are forgetting Messi's words so fast. Ironically, he has not been chasing the goals over the years but the goals have been chasing him


�Messi: “I think less and less about scoring goals. I'm starting to step back more and more to be the creator rather than the one who finishes."

So many sweet-sour experiences from Valverde's era.. so many near wins.. Valverde will raise your hope from the onset only to destroy it with one stupid decision. Valverde really played with our hearts oooo.. Kai..


What Ikon360 don't realize is that some players like Messi, Ronaldo etc... are the club's biggest attacker and biggest defender at the same time. Players like Messi will pose threat in attack, so much so that even your strikers dare not move forward hastily and carelessly


Messi's presence alone in that Levante's match will not accord their attackers so much freedom like they did. Why do clubs come to Camp nou and play 9-0-1 formation? It is partly because of Messi..

Clubs that have been using 4-3-3 all season long will change to 5-4-1 partly because of Messi. But then our defence were too vulnerable and porous that day. That's life sha, no excuse for failure, what will be will be surely be, sometimes it is just too hard to accept.

“Yes, I received an offer from Barcelona in the presence of Eric Abidal and Oscar Grau, but I didn't accept it. It's too soon to coach Barcelona, but it will continue to be my dream to be Barcelona coach in the future.”

To be honest, I agree Barcelona is the most hated club in world football. And I attribute that mostly to the fact that the world loves an underdog and with the exception of a very few sides, everyone is an underdog when they play Barcelona.
I myself used to like Barcelona, but that 2009 debacle changed all that. I don't like cheats.
Tagging Barca as cheats because of the 2009 debacle is hypocritical. commmonnn sing another song Jo.

Let's just agree Barca cheated for the sake of argument. Can you name another three cheating incidents that went in favour of Barca without searching Google huh

This might sound strange, Football is like a food web where you feast on others to survive. Bigger clubs cheat there ways to success sometimes but that doesn't reduce there status in any way. The Lions feast on Wolves to survive and the wolves on the hand, feast on antelopes to survive in the jungle. I don't think the wolves have the moral justification to tag the lions as "cheats"

Can you swear that your club have never benefited from a wrong call in the past?

I don't see you tagging United as cheats because of the officiating during Fergie's era, you remember Howard Webb can penalise you for breathing Oxygen back then.

Point is, everyone has benefited from wrong calls in the past. Barcelona had a goal wrongly ruled out for offside in the last match of the season against Atletico, which consequently cost us the League trophy . So no club has the moral right to call another as cheats
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by Upnepaa(m): 7:22pm On Jan 15, 2020
The topic is ridiculous sha cheesy
But Barca is the most hated club the world o.

Whenever Barca crashed out of the UCL like this.. football fans will celebrate it like Abacha death.

If you a Barca fan in a football viewing center and you lost a Final or UCL KO, you will think it is you against the whole world. A lot of people hate barca with Passion.


The Paramount reason being that Barca/Messi have hurt all the famous big clubs in the past (Yes, you can ponder this)

Real Madrid,Man U, Chelsea,Arsenal, Man city, PSG, AC Milan. ... Barca don show all of them pepper and Messi has also hurt all of them at one point or more in the past.

That's why we usually trend on social whenever we lose...

But who cares, We are Barcelona, We are more than a club. cool

Advice yourself first Ogah Adviser!!!
Have your heard of what we call a "A New Manager Bounce"huh I think you have.

Well I know your type, if Xavi comes in and things change for the better, you I'll go mute. If things turn out sour, you'll come back here to rant that
YOU SAW IT COMING, YOU SAID IT BLAH BLAH BLAH, YEN YEN YEN!!!!

Ogah there is no time bomb, go and time bomb yourself first, for all the crises they are top of the league, and in the UCL round of 16 just like any other TOP team.

Valverde is an EXTREMELY limited coach and this is a fact, any good to decent coach will do a fine job at Barca

Enrique was shit at Roma came to barca and won the Treble, Pep was at Barca B came to Barca, well the rest is history. Zidane was just an assistant at Madrid, came in and won treble of UCL titles.

Other young coaches are also doing decent jobs for thier respective clubs, Lampard(from Derby, a championship team to the Almighty Chelsea) Arteta(City assistant to Arsenal) Pochetino(sacked) to mention a few.

Managing a football team is difficult enough but it's certainly not rocket science.

Yes and Yes he's coming.

It may not be in the winter but sooner rather than later, HE(Xavier Hernández Creus) will COME and the world will hold its breath as he brings back the breathtaking attacking football back to the Nou Camp and also to the rest of the world!!!
Here we go again!!!

It is a shame you looked at my opinion from an objective point of view and not from a subjective point of view.

I've never been part of the "I said this before crew" please, even if I hate the coach, I will never hope for his failure, isn't that a detriment to the club success as a whole? abeq


Your only problem is that you are living in a wild fantasy. The fantasy made you believe that every legend that come back to coach his club will be a success. but that's wrong.


The fact that you are a good player doesn't necessarily means you will be a good coach.


You painted me like a Xavi hater which I'm not in all sincerity.


What I'm saying is clear... I don't want Xavi to come now because the club need overhaul of almost departments of the pitch.. So Xavi coming in presently will be a huge gamble that can make or mar his career. if he is successful I will be happy as a Barca and Xavi fan, and if he fails, I will be sad as a Barca and Xavi fan. Xavi is still relatively a rookie and a new coach. Anything can happen. Xavi as a player as entirely different from Xavi as a Coach


I'm happy he refused to come now. maybe he read my earlier post who knows huh


You brought the example of Gurdiola, Zidane and Lampard. I agreed with that, even though it is too early to judge in Lampard case, he has not pass the test of time.


Why don't you cite the examples of Henry, Gary Neville and Gattusso as example. They failed woefully in their first major coaching test.

Chrisus:
There are talks Xavi is in line to take over from Valverde

What are your thoughts??
I will advice him not to come now. Let's face the fact,the team's problem is magnificent and it won't automatically change because of Valverde's sack like many fans believe. We need an upgrade from the present version of Pique, Alba, Suarez and Roberto. We also need to be independent from Messi as much as possible.

Xavi coming in will a dangerous career mistake for him, Barca is a time bomb waiting to explode right now, his coaching career will just end even before it starts. We love, we don't want to see him suffer.
