I can't imagine what the atmosphere will be like for both teams when between them there will be less than 10,000 of their own fans to support them.

These finals should be played in the countries that add something to the game. Whatever possess the powers that be to play then in these out of the way places is beyond me.

I'm reality both final should be played over here. I can't believe that Wembley couldn't have put the games on at short notice or even Old Trafford for ours and Wet Spams for the other.

Good for them. I doubt it will bother UEFA as I’m sure they’ll have corporate companies waiting in the wings to take them off their hands, but voting with their feet is the best thing they can do.

Obviously I have no love for Arsenal, but it’s a European final and the fans should be able to attend without a costly hike to the arse end of nowhere.

Apparently a lot of the sponsors aren't going and media outlets have refused to travel. It's getting pretty embarrassing for them now.

To make matters worse, the stadium in Baku has a running track and looks like the Olympic stadium!

Apparently, Arsenal and Chelsea fans are few and far between in Baku. Who would have guessed that hosting a European final in a country that's, geographically speaking, in Asia would be poorly attended?

I see Chelsea are fighting each other in training and Sarri has stormed off.

These idiots cannot be relied on for anything - they only show any enthusiasm for bothering us.

To be honest if they qualify for the CL with their existing squad I doubt they’ll even get out of the group stages.

If there is one hugely over rated player it's David Luiz...the guy goes 'walkabout' some games or just stands like a statue as forwards run rings round him. I have never understood what clubs see in him.
Am I missing something ??? ( No sarcastic answers to that question, please)....:whistle:
