Champions League 2015/2016

Motta is probably the most underrated defensive midfielder ever. Almost nobody rates him.

PSG is chocabloc with beautiful players. I don't even see mention of Matuidi, another guy I would snatch from them in a heartbeat. If Wenger said he was dropping even 40m on Matuidi, I'd go fetch the Frenchman myself.
Cavani has been one of the top 5 strikers in Europe this season. Let's not hate on him.

There's a lot of very over rated and over valued dross at PSG too, relatively speaking.

Isco is some player

Wasn't always the case.

Yeah, I remember when he came through at Barca together with Rochemback and Geovanni. I always thought he looked the most talented of the bunch. Barca were dead certain that he was going to become a club legend for them.

Clrnc

Back then he was an attacking mid isn't it?

I mean when people talk about the best defensive midfielders, nobody ever thought about him but he has got to be up there. In almost every big game he has played he is top class.

Rex

I reckon it is not so much that people don't rate him as they don't want him; he is a quality player, no doubt, but he is also like 56 years old.

Rex

Have to say, that Rabiot fella was very impressive. Switching the bench of PSG for ours seems a sideways move at best though, from his perspective. He wouldn't be first choice here, but he looks like a guy who would improve us as a squad quite a bit.

Klaus

Rabiot would start for us inside a year, probably much less.

jones

Yeah, if he develops at the current rate he'd be our best CM within a year or two. PSG's midfield is better than ours and he got more than 30 appearances last season, he'd get a lot more here with our players dropping like flies.

Clrnc

For what PSG wants for Rabiot, I would rather we go for Gundogan.

Yeah but he can be sure Wenger wont spend £40m to bring in someone ahead of him next summer.

Rex

Yeah, there is that. 🙂

Bergkamp esque pass by Suarez as Szczesny tries to better his Camp Nou record.

I caught myself being just impressed by the assist because it's Messi on the end of it but that's an outrageous finish

arsedocmd

barcelona are just ridiculing roma now. that second messi goal was through such quick touches from suarez and messi

Clrnc

6-0. Szczesny really bettered his record there.

Rudi Garcia is awful in UCL.

jones

Just seen the goals in the Barcelona match, one better than the other. They're in ridiculous form, ten goals in two matches at Real and Roma. They could play Squillaci and Silvestre in defence and would destroy pretty much every team out there

Hope they draw Bayern sooner rather than later. Last year's 3-0 at the Camp Nou flattered them, hoping for a complete annihilation plus a Suárez celebratory slidetackle into Robben's face

arsedocmd

think it'll be a little more competitive with robben and costa's pace on the wings this time
