SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2024/2025

Or like he's been digging too deeply & too greedily in the mines of moria

 

"Come back to the Shire" begged Colleen, as Hobbit Wayne buried another 12 pack of Hobbit Sauce and sank further into his maudlin pursuit of geriatric prostitutes.

 

Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises, Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not. Ready to drop upon me that, when I waked, I cried to dream again.
















That said it's hard to see past Dortmund

 

We'll see what happens. If nothing else i can see this being a really good game, Celtic will go at them, press aggressively & i think our attacking line has pace & is decent, even at this level. I also feel like we're significantly better playing out from the back & less vulnerable in transition than previous celtic teams. This is the best drilled Celtic ive seen. But Dortmund will have individuals with talent & athleticism beyond what we can live with one on one so it can all go badly pete tong & unravel at a seconds notice, especially with a makeshift defence

 

@whiskey
What you thinking? I watched the highlights from the weekend it looked like you've got mad talent & pace but also a bit incoherent? Quite vulnerable in behind, not very press resistant. New manager? I can see it playing out pretty similar a) a high scoring game b) celtic doing quite well for the first hour or so then c) the sheer weight of talent off the bench blowing our doors off as our legs start to go

 

Celtic being played through easily enough, could get ugly. 4-1 as I type, Celtic are not that bad and Dortmund not really that good but it's just one of those nights.

 

Arsenal 2-0 PSG. Could win this by more. Celtic down 5-1 now. Blimey.

 

Celtic are being ripped apart. It's been an ugly watch.

MTF

 

Holy shit. It was a pretty busy at work today so i didn't have too much time to pay attention. I checked the scores at one point and BVB were winning 2-1. Didn't think much of it. Had to runs some errands after work and just got in.

I'm not even sure what to make of it really. I don't even recognize a lot of the names on the current squad. At this rate Adeymi will be playing in England or Spain in the next transfer window.

Happy for Celtic this result didn't happen to them at home.

 

Brendan's a dummy.

 

Whoooooosh. That Celtic result looks rough...

 

Arsenal not having to get out of second gear to beat a PSG side going through a transitional period. I'd like to see them go all the way.

Villa play Bayern tonight. Hopefully Kane isn't injured for it.

 

Don't lie...these errands involved making sure the Celtic players' food and drink were contaminated. Expect a knock on your door from Brendan.

 

It wasn't necessary. What happened was Celtic were celebrating Octoberfest a tad too early.

 

The last time Villa played Bayern Munich was the 1982 European Cup final. Villa won and lifted the trophy. Would be great to see Villa win tonight. Kane should be fit for it. Shame it's on TNT Sports. £30 a month subscription. Madness.

 

I love seeing a "new" team involved in the champions league. Obviously Villa aren't technically new and have won it before, but it's always nice to see a team outside of the closed shop (which it was for ages).

 

Bayern all over Villa at the moment

 

Villa 1-0 but goal being checked

 

Fuck. Disallowed.

 

I'm listening on the radio. 0-0 at half-time. Commentators not happy with the ref. They're saying Kane should have been booked and others, but the ref bottled decisions.

 

Liverpool a goal up at home to Bologna.

 

Villa 1-0 Bayern

 

Duran may have delivered the knockout blow to defeat Bayern.

 

Kane gone missing in a big game?

 

Martinez man of the match?

Massive win. Well done, Villa!

Hard luck, Harry..

 

Great win. Yes I also agree, Martinez was superb. Best keeper in the world? Would be hard to argue against it.

 

Why do does it have to say Former Leeds Striker? Who doesn't know Lucy Ward?

 

World Cup and Copa America winner and claimed the Golden Glove in both tournaments. Saves penalties. Makes outstanding saves from open play with both feet and hands. It is hard to argue against him being #1. Seems to improve each year.

 

Rangers gettin a French flogging.
