Can't see it, even the Italian League is trying to become more attack minded and Roma are completely broke so he will have to do it on a shoe string budget. I can't believe a club has given him a contract.

Agreed, plus Jose is a busted flush. Roma will struggle next year.

I saw bits of it and PSG really don't like it when things go against them. It was nice to see them getting upset when City players didn't jump straight back up after they have been carved in two. Imagine what they would have been like if City had acted the way they do! The game would still be going on now cos of all the ET that would have to have been added.
Good riddance to PSG. Th club hierarchy may be fairly likeable, assuming we ignore the fact they are owned by a sovereign wealth fund with questionable human rights records, but the team itself are the epitome of what is wrong with modern football.

All English CL final then, can't decide who I would prefer to win. It's a bit like having to choose between AOTC and The Last Jedi!

Save your tenner, Jose's old tactics are long gone now even in the notoriously defensive serie a. It'll be Juve after losing the title this year.edd_jedi said:

I think Arsenal have a good chance of winning the Europa League, can see them winning tonight and beating Utd in the final. That would be nasty! lol

Ehhh the club that employed Jose TWICE, employed John Terry, Ashley Cole, Didier Drogba and who have never played good football. Over a club that have employed none of them, do play good football and don't seem to attract the same idiot self entitled, ever so slightly racist, fans!?
No brainer for me.
Both Clubs are rich men's play things, but City are passably likeable. Chelsea are a horrible horrible club.

I would choose Chelsea over a club that breached fifa fair play rules, and avoided punishment. But you know money talks. All clubs have **** fans dident mean it's being run by scold hitler because of a few ski headsweasel said:DarthHamblin said:theforceuk said:

. And I can remember Chelsea playing good football maybe not under mourinho the second time round. But his first time at the club was totally different they were a hard team to beat.Anyway I'm a united supporter that's why I want Chelsea to win.

No Arsenal were poor by all accounts, thought they would get a goal. Man Utd's away record gone.

Nah, they were more workman like than good to watch. It was effective, the titles confirm that, but even then they weren't the sort of side you would choose to watch on a random week night.
As a Pool fan one thing I can't begrudge Fergy is his Utd sides almost always played, or tried to, good to watch football. Ditto Wenger. Granted there were games where they didn't or where it didn't work and they got hoked. But if you were given a choice of who to watch between any of those three clubs, club loyalty aside, I doubt anyone would pick Chelsea.
As for you being a Utd fan.......(reaches for his "banning hammer" :wink: )

We're soooo SLOW!
I heard they were poor last night. No urgency. Which is strange given it was effectively a season decider.
Also, a surprisingly strong side from Utd. Given they have 4 games in 11 days, why not play Mata, Matic and a few of the other EL squad boys? Seemed strange to basically have a first choice 11, with VDB and Bailly.

It was a bit of a strange choice from Ole, thing for me was that we haven't played for 7 days because of the Liverpool game, so perhaps trying to keep them sharp? I think pretty much the best team will be put out against Villa, complete second string against Leicester and Ole's best 11 against Liverpool.
David De Gea was outstanding last night, Roma had 12 shots on target. I've been a critic of his in the past and rightly so at the time. But their is no way Henderson should be first choice while De Gea is still at the club.
