Champions League 2019/20

[Smith's right boot]

They were part of the English domination that was incoming after last year's European finals as well. 

 

Needed a calculator to keep tabs on that score.

Bayern rag dolled spurs tonight, some stadium though. The shots of the outside looked fantastic. 

 

 

Bayern were shooting from outside the stadium? 

 

Ffs, proper piss take.

Joking aside it was impressive display of how to score goals by Bayern. Top class finishing in every one. 😊

Spurs couldn’t get the ball back at times and Bayern had more gears, defo. Their shooting was incredible.

Growing number of young players leaving England to get some games. Gnabry's rise is unexpected though, he's absolutely brilliant. 9 goals in 10 caps for Germany.

Spurs can be classed as under achievers throwing money at everything, last night was an eye opener a total football show. the EPL is an elite hyped up over priced junkshop, Bundesliga sides play entertaining football backed by passionate supports. That was excellent especially pleasing to see them shown up at the highest level.

 

Oh what a beautiful morning

Spurs the first English team to concede 7 goals in a European tie.

In fairness to the EPl; Bayern have easily spent as much as Spurs on players in the last couple of years. They're a team in disarray at the moment and their results don't really tell you much about the rest of the league.

 

Did Man City vs Shalke last year show up the Bundesliga as being an over priced junkshop?

If you believe the EPL is entertaining compared to the Bundesliga anything said is meaningless. I Agree there are sides Liverpool Man city who can stand up to many European sides.

My point was more related to the football played. Learn a lot more watching German football than EPl

You're point seemed to largely focus on money. All I was saying is that part is really true given the teams involved. On a whole, I agree that Bundesliga has more entertaining football played but as a league it's had the same winner 7 years on the bounce, so yeh, I'd say the EPL is more entertaining than Bundesliga.

Bayern won't win the competition.

My point was more based on the over priced predictable product wasting money paying for dead end football. As a football fan the bundesligas offer a product for the support who easily beat anything on offer in England. The EPL is a money shredder nothing more causing major financial struggles throughout the leagues forcing clubs into the wall playing catch up. Your a fan of English football you regard it as the best, I blame it on the TV broadcasters brainwashing the deluded Scottish fan base who have to watch eye bleeding football due to the lack of a similar level of financial injections. Anyways more riddles from me

 Hearts are the only side I support, as a young lad I had a thing for west ham but that was a blip.

 

I appreciate the EPL has major sides in it but it's plagued with absolute dross football

Did you predict Liverpool would win it last season , if you go by them defeated in the final 2018 . Then winning the 2019 final says 2020 is Tottenham's year ?

 

I see a Liverpool final v whoever as Klopp who happens to be German can match anyone out there when it comes to winning with a smile and a wee riddle to enjoy. 

 

If Hearts could play in any other league for the qaulity of football and atmosphere , I would choose the Bundesliga or Argentina the type of class I appreciate and kids out there can learn from.

Have can you level predictable at the EPL when advocating the Bundasliga?!  One league has had the same team win for 7 years in a row and the other has just had the same team win it for two years in a row for the first time in a decade.

 

as always with entertainment the truth is somewhere in the middle of what you say.  There are some sensational games in the EPL and there is some dross.  But it’s the exact same in the Bundasliga.  Great games and also some dross.

As you will know 1-2 sides dominate most leagues at any level. I'm on about the fans experience involvement paying for guff over hyped football. The EPL the EC are money bag parachutes. The Bundesliga has a full on fan assisted / funded system that Hearts are a double of we lead the way in the UK about to be members of a unique group of clubs who's fans have a deeper involvement in the boardroom.

 

Last night my kids watched the game. Not Roblox tiktoc likee.

Shocker they had the ball out the back for ages had to drag them in.

Hearts were unlucky against the former Liverpool, got mugged off bale at tynie had a go at white heart lane . Look we have a chance to learn something about standards Klopp knows failure as a friend to learn from. Will Tottenham teach us anything other than they have under achieved,  in football anything is possible I don't  think Tottenham will teach any of us anything. Liverpool Man city  Wolves teach us there's hope.

Bayern are Rangers and Celtic combined.

I was thinking that this morning, Spurs and Hibs have a lot in common in their respective leagues, both absolute bottle merchants and under achievers, there's giant rifts in the Spurs dressing room just now apparently too with Erikson's missus being rather generous to Jan Vertonghen (allegedly), and quite a few of them wanting away. 

[Sir Gio]

Watched Leeds United and West Bromwich Albion, cracking game of football, brimming with atmosphere, strong challenges, heart on sleeve stuff. Interestingly, Tony Pulis was the guest pundit.

Might watch Liverpool tonight though, reckon there could be quite a few goals, expect them to prevail, but without having it all their own way.

Don't find the CL has any real oomph at this stage, though that is a signature result for Spurs, looks as if the manager and the players have a bit of a malaise going on. Happens to the best I suppose

Seems Humping and Tottenham is a pattern, players raging they didn't get their shot in open legs oops play caused a rift.

The people's football wins against the indebted in my opinion, the way you use resources not how much their worth. Its like anything ' expensive' it's worth the highest bid creating an over exaggerated value economy , I was going to use ' false'.

 

I'm not going to lie about the fact I'm an addict for fine football I choke on the fact we are in need of a clear out, if I was fortunate to be part of a second bid part control of my beloved HMFC 1874 I would bring a set up worth singing about.

 

 My two youngest have football blooded into them by me as a form of art in fact without art our life's would be dull. I don't know if opening up here about my experiences in football or plain competition, I'm in it to compete win be a success.

 

So here's the crutch grab.. 

 

Wait it's worth it

 

 

 

[Nookie Bear]

I think, the way football at the top level is played these days by the majority of clubs, the focus is on attacking and getting forward so results like this are always possible when one team just loses the plot and the other just keeps going.

 

A few years ago i reckon the game would have wound down to a 4-2 win, possible 5-2 at most, with Bayern knocking it about for 20 minutes. That doesn't seem to be the way these days, and football is all the better for it.

 

 

[benny]

Bayern are the old firm of Germany.

They plunder the German league the same way the old firm do ours.

By all means like German football but this shower are #####.
