This is kinda feeling like our Juve first leg. Barca really need to get another to kill it.

That's the champions league for you. Barca haven't even played very well yet they're 3-0 up. Have to make the most of it and score when you're on top.

I’ve still never seen Messi play in the flesh and time is running out. So want us to draw Barcelona in Europe. He’s amazing. Will be a real regret if I never see him play live.

The dark art that proper gets on my tits is the intentional bringing down of a player to break up a counter attack when there's absolutely no attempt to try and win the ball. It should be a red imo.
It's blatant cheating. Not 'taking one for the team,' a 'proffessional foul,' 'a bit cynical' or 'clever'.
Its blatant cheating and spoils the game.
All the good teams including us do it but I'd like to see it stamped out.
So there lol.

That's called a tactical foul, we do when there is no other option under Poch

lmfao Messi is so damn cunning.

Yeah. It’s one thing thinking it, it’s another executing it. They way he accelerates and slows his body back down to give him time to steady himself is just unrivalled. Does it so often and the ball is always under his control, even when it’s in front of him.

Just wow. Messi is simply unplayable, what a magnificent footballer that we have all had the privilege to watch over these years. It will be a long long time before anyone even comes close to the brilliant that is Lionel Messi.

My dad talks about watching Pele, my uncle talks about watching Maradona and I’ll be the one that talks about watching Messi.

If only Messi was better at penalties Chelsea would never have won the champions league causing us to miss out.
