f***ing linesman! Lol at Bayern though.
I am not one for gloating, but it’s almost a pity tomorrow is a public holiday in Germany, as there might have been some epic banter to be had.

Why don't teams put it in the mixer any more at the end of games, where has that do or die gamble gone from the game?

Send up the centre backs and get your full backs and keeper to knock it long... that's just disappeared.

Madness.

What kind of madness is a bank holiday Thursday?

It’s a legacy-holdover religious festival, and pretty much everyone takes the Friday off as well, to make a nice long four-day weekend.

Just realised it's going to be Jude Bellingham against his former club Dortmund. Imagine how gutted he would be if he lost that final.

Then you've got Hazza Kane going into the Euros on low spirits too. Blooming eck :LOL:

Who remembers when Carlo Ancelotti had Everton in 1st place in 2020 and was never out of the top half of the Premier League all season?

Genius manager to do that because the Everton squad didn't look too dissimilar to how it looks today.

He gets too much credit for that.
The brains behind the operation was definitely Big Dunc - as he has since demonstrated @ Forest Green Rovers

Seriously though - Ancelotti is a serial winner and seems to be a a nice guy with it.
No histrionics, always remains calm, generous and honest in his match appraisals
I wonder if he is available for next season

Jude Bellingham, who will now face his old club Borussia Dortmund in the final, said: “I don’t think Joselu will be sleeping much tonight, he’ll be useless in training tomorrow! He deserves it all, he’s been an amazing member of the squad all season and it’s his night.”

Watched the Madrid game last night in a tapas bar full of Madrid fans, great atmosphere.

More inept refereeing though - not for the controversial goal that never was...but the referee playing 15 mins injury time when 9 was signalled. The controversial incident at the end should never have been allowed to happen.

Oh no... the fairy tale is over.

Never mind, FC St Pauli's return to the Bundesliga can flourish as the final fable of the season.

De Rossi has a surprised everyone after taking over. He was very much a continuity appointment to buy time but seems to have forged a winning team.

Reminds me a little of when Roberto Di Matteo took over as caretaker manager at Chelsea and improved the team immeasurably - and won the Champions League.
