SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2021/22

You ever seen that movie "In Bruges"???

Well that is where FC Bruges should stay. In fucking Bruges.

 

Get off the fucking field Keita you dead weight.

This is where Rafa will ALWAYS be Klopps father.

Klopp couldn't see out a game against this lot to save his fucking life.

What's this, his third go round?

Shocking shite

 

Madrid playing all the football. Honestly, the ONLY thing Liverpool can ever do after scoring is try to do it again. They've no clue how to kill an affair

Now Allison is playing silly buggers.

 

Matip loves to play people onside. Now Van Dijk is at it too.

Atletico could have 5 by now.

2 nil up after 17 minutes.... Liverpool gagging for halftime. Cant get a sniff. Absolutely no outball right now.

Milner...Keita...not cutting it right now. Nothing from Salah this past 30 minutes.

Mane been marshalled into anonymity.

 

Yeah it's one thing to smack Watford around isnt it..... totally totally different test, this..

 

Off you pop, frog bollox

 

Simeone can fuck off. Hes impregnated Atletico with steel and resolve at the cost of likeability and sportsmanship. That last 6 minutes was TOUGH!!!!

 

Yeah that was disrespectful from Simeone. Very good win that against a top side. I can't remember the last time an English side beat Atletico at their own place.

 

It was a hard 90 minutes. Keita had shocker and was rightly pulled. He's missed so many tackles in the games I've watched. Simeone was whipping that crowd up something insane.

I think Atletico are the hardest team in Europe to play against. I was dreading tonight's game.

Gamesmanship, tackling , their negative style, how they swarm in the tackles. Awful stylistic matchup.





Pity about the red card but high boot to the head in Europe leads only one place

 

Great game!

Has Steve Bruce been asked to pick up his P45 at the Saudi Embassy yet?

 

Steve Bruce is a victim of bullying, says Gary Neville.

That's what I despise about Neville and cunts like him........he want's to lash out at the Saudi's, but he he knows what side his bread is buttered........so he does it in a roundabouty kind of way.

The lowest of all shits, the hurler on the fucking ditch.

 

The Saudi deal is great for Sky, another storyline to boost the pl 'product'; contrast with their hysterical response to the super league which would have been exceptionally bad news for their business

 

Atletico under Simeone are like Bernard Hopkins. "Hard" men that play physical, foul all time but cry like bitches every time the favor is returned at even 1/4 of the same fashion.

If they were your neighbors they would have "rescue" pit-bulls that mauled children but call the police if you played music too loud on New Year's Eve. Faux hard men cry bullies.

 

Agreed 100%.

How anybody could cry about the monstrous Superleague having nurtured the Grendel that is the Premier League is beyond me.

Well it's not beyond me. It's all money and politics.

The latest bollox is that the other PL clubs have joined together to block NUFC sponsorship deals despite themselves having been up to their eyes in same.

Standard Chartered are money launderers for every tom dick and harry

 

I respect what he's done at Atletico and sympathize fully with his setbacks vis a vis the European Cup vs Real. That was brutal. He's turned a local dwarf into a giant.

But there's a clown-like nature to him. The redonkulous hair. The big shoes. The suit. The constant whining and bitching. And he puts his team up to it too. Surrounding the ref and whining like stuck pigs about every fucking thing.

Suarez was booked for it. It was his most significant action.

 

I loathe that kind of behavior and tactics. I don't care if he's had a lot of success. I'm not an "the ends justify the means" kind of person.

 

His bullshit tactics really only came after the success though. That's the thing. He's trying to augment his style with a healthy dose of cynicism. He probably feels after the Euro finals that that's how you win games.

Like I say I really dread them. Its that blend of passive defending, counter attack, snidey attacking players and their crowd.

Carrasco, Suarez, Griezmann, Trippier, Koke, Oblak are all very good players

Hope we put the group to bed next time, Porto getting a win last night was a downer. Milan have gone badly downhill since their good start.

 

I don't know if people remember Boavista in 2002/2003

Fucking hideous diving time-wasting outfit.

Quite simply tried to dive and time waste their way into the UEFA final vs Celtic having gotten the away goal at Celtic in the first leg.

Never seen a team get the finger out so fast after Larsen did this....

 

I'm glad Celtic beat them but I had a bit of a soft spot for them because I liked their chessboard kit and they managed to briefly break the hegemony of the most uncompetitive league in Europe.

 

I hated early 2000s kits everywhere

 

Bruce fired by evil Saudis.

(Bruce also had 3 points from 8 games)

 

Kyogo & Jota are fn class....wee January raid of the J-League for two guys this good to replace Rogic & Turnbull....a really mobile ball playing centre back. We'll be in good nick.

Oh man that goal, i literally collapsed and didnt get up for some time. Wasnt even happy....more like a parents reaction when a presumed dead child comes home

 

Yup. He probably ate it, though.

MTF

 

Some Shellick team, that.

MTF

 

Yeah, Atleti under Simeone are a real bunch of nasty, cheating cunts alright.

MTF

 

Everton, who used self-sponsorship of their fucking training ground to get around FFP and other associated rules, and Leicester City, who renamed their stadium 'The King Power', two of the loudest hypocrites rallying the troops.

MTF

 

I remember where I watched that game. It was definitely cathartic.

 

Way to go Atalanta. Handing United a major fillip like that.

 

Solksjaer always seems to pull a result out of his arse whenever he's on the verge of being sacked. Thought Scholes nailed it post-match, United were poor and aren't winning anything with those types of performances.
