    UEFA Champions League 2023/24

    Second rate tournament against second rate teams yet taking a 3-0 home drubbing by one of those second rate teams.

    Or are you just giving them a head start?

    You couldn't make it up could you. Arrogant, entitled and totally lacking in self-awareness. No point arguing with them though as they're never wrong.

    I’m sure if the club could they wouldn’t choose to not be in it at the start of the season.

    I’d rather win the FA cup / league cup that a Europa.

    But you supported the European Super League and said The League Cup should be scrapped .

    Why wouldn’t I want us to win a euro super league rather than the league cup ?

    Self awareness of what ?

    Just because Newcastle haven’t won anything for 100 years doesn’t mean any other clubs need to be amazed to play in the Europa league.

    No big side wants to play in the Europa.

    As I’ve said 2nd rate tournament.

    West Ham are going to have to go some to overturn Leverkeusen's two goal advantage.

    Hopefully have Alvarez and possibly Bowen back for the home leg.
    Cheers,
    Neil.

    Such a strange guy you matey.

    Arrogant and entitled for not being interested in a second tier European competition ?

    What top European sides would be interested in it.

    Literally baffling stuff from you.

    You’ve got this weird obsession with Liverpool and their fans. It’s actually unhealthy the amount of venom you post regarding it.

    It’s just entertainment buddy, some teams are better than others, some teams have more fans, some teams have won more things.

    Do your own mental health a favour and just let it go, you’ll be a happier person.

    TTC is bang on about your arrogance and lack of self awareness as I'd reckon even Liverpool fans will be hard pushed to get on board with you.
    Was sort of rooting for Liverpool in the run in but you make that difficult.
    Your sign off on your post would get you a smash in the jaw I'd expect had it been said F2F.

    What are you on about ?

    No Liverpool fans want to be in the Europa league. Why would they ?

    I make it difficult for you to root for Liverpool in the run in by saying I’m not bothered about the 2nd tier of European competition ?

    And I’d get a smash in the jaw for advising someone to not take football so serious it affects his state of mind ?

    Strange stuff.

    Have a good day Mr Hood.

    2nd tier competition or not, whilst they are still in it, they will want to win it.

    Even to most Liverpool fans, I’d suggest that any trophy in the cabinet is better than none.

    No obviously not.

    Would city fans like to be in the Europa ?

    The atmosphere last night was the worst all season. Completely flat, no ones interested in it.

    Well why would they bother going then ? Why spend your hard earned money on something they(you) have no interest in ?
    I might not want to be in it ( you already know I’m no fan of the Chumps League) but I’d hope we’d treat it like any other trophy we challenged for .

    When I talk about yous being entitled, this is what I mean.
    Not to mention the same fans saying what a non event the league cup was when City won four in a row.

    What fans said that about City ? I’ve never said it, I’ve never heard any other fan say it.

    Are you just reading stuff off Twitter? That’s not real, it’s people from Timbuktu talking waffle.

    yes you don't ideally want to be in the Europa league but to say you dont want to win it is just stupid.

    So if they did win it, and did a open bus celebration you recon no one would show up? and just be sat at home saying " its a crappy cup"

    Wasn’t it a certain Mr Klopp who said he wanted to finish the group stages as winners and thus avoid the qualifying round of 32. If he thought it was a second rate trophy I’m sure he would have just put his kids out and not bothered about trying to get through.

    So even if the fans weren’t bothered, the club at least was giving it a go.

    Switched over once PSG went 3-1 up.
    This Dortmund v Athletico is crazy fun

    I might have a one man sweepstake on how many times Savsge shoehorns United into the commentary

    Incredibly defensive line up Bayern have put out against Arsenal. I'm confused as defence hasn't exactly been their strongest suite this season.

    I think Arsenal can do it tonight, so will watch that one.

    Would love RM to win, but somehow don’t see it. After about half an hour they will probably be struggling to stay awake.

    I'm confident in Arsenal's chances tonight. People say Arsenal are bottlers and don't have experience of winning titles, yet they forget the Arsenal squad is packed full of Community Shield winners and multiple 'Top at Xmas' Champions. That experience has to count.

    Bayern were better, but a terrible performance made no chances, just passed it around the back, to many no shows, havertz shi1te as always, and why take off Jourginho and put havertz in the middle, we lost all our shape. No urgency at all. Said it last week if we don’t get a striker we won’t win anything in the next few season.

    Agree desperately need a striker and some cover on the right for Saka who looks like he’s been running on fumes for the past month.

    Arteta hasn’t managed Saka’s minutes at all well, he just flogs him into the ground.

    Whenever I watch Arsenal I feel they’re trying to win the possession and pass stats as priorities over winning the game. Another five passes sideways or back rather than being brave with the ball.

    Season over in three days. Must be frustrating for you Gooners.

    Was Saka even on the pitch, don’t recall seeing him.

    One of England’s finest, I don’t think.
