Say what you like about Ronaldo, but he’s the ultimate big game player.

Can’t say Juve didn’t deserve it, and out of the two I dislike Atletico more. Although Cheillini is a complete and utter ****.

Morata is absolute dogshit, totally gutless player

I’ve written before about his complete lack of mentality. I think I posted an article about it which has an interview with Buffon about Morata and his time at juventus where Buffon talks about how weak the player is. Made me think at the time that he actually need mental help.

It’s why I knew his time at Chelsea would be a failure.

I really hated watching Juve's antics at the end. Chances are if Atleti were ahead they would have done the same thing. Was always going to be an antifootball last 10 mins - two shithouse teams.

It's exactly what we will have to do if we need to hold a lead. And I'd defend it to the hilt if we did it.

Kane has learned from the experience against Juve last season. You can see it in his game. He drops to the floor under high balls if he feels a touch and he usually gets a free kick. He did it a good few times last week alone v Dortmund.

Fucking delighted with the Juve result. Simeone was always a shit stain of a player and I'm glad his idiotic gesture from the last game has come back to bite him in the arse. Forza la Vecchia Signora!

We lost to Juventus last year and they've added Bonucci and Ronaldo.

While we've lost Dembele and Eriksen is a shadow of the player he was last year.

I wouldn't fancy our chances.

Unless we’re supee lucky and get Porto every team is hard

Ajax would be a nice draw because of the history between the clubs, Man United would’ve been nice too because we’re better than them and Poch can show Ole what’s up, Juventus wouldn’t be as bad just because I want revenge

Anyways let’s pray we get Porto, the Football universe owes us something nice

7-0 City. Holy fuck they've got a couple of extra gears.

It’s amazing what unlimited money can do.

Results like that are just embarrassing for modern football in general. Knock out stages of the top club competition in the world, and an oil club like them destroy the opposition like that? Games like this make the entire sport less meaningful, to the point where it’s hardly sporting at all.
