TBhW, the spud's first goal yesterday was ridiculous.

Edit: Raul was younger.

I quite like the look of Rodrygo. He's the more natural footballer vs. Vinicius; better finishing, passing, decision making.

Probably will spur Real into dropping ungodly amounts of $$$ on future Brazilian kids.

Brazilian kids are ridiculous. Just see how Martinelli made that transition from amateur football in some 3rd division regional league seamlessly to here.

Speaking of Martinelli, he had a beautiful move, some close control to wriggle free of two Vitoria defenders in the bottom corner of the penalty box yesterday. The guys technical skill is some of the best on our team, maybe just below Ozil. It's so frustrating seeing someone like him starved of the football

Spurs 2-0 down at home in 20 minutes

I feel like your post doesn't say what it's trying to.

Spuds 0-2 at new Shite Hart Pain.

That VAR decision in the PSG game was absolutely abysmal.

Shady

Abysmal from the Olympiakos defender 😆

Just seen that Dybala strike! Xhaka-like.

Missing a key word there

Did you guys see the VAR penalty reversal in the PSG-Real game. The referee initially judged Courtois to have fouled a PSG player outside the box so immediately awarded a free kick on the edge plus a red card. The replay showed it was in the box. The referee spent a long time at the monitor, the assumption being he would give a penalty and reverse the card and give a penalty per the double jeopardy guidelines. Instead, he awarded areal a free kick for a slight push on Marcelo that had happened at the halfway line about 5 seconds before the penalty incident. I was sitting in a plane. I burst out laughing so hysterically I thought we were going to have a troublesome passenger incident

Like one of the guys in the studio said, was more of a gust of wind than a push.

Chelsea so, so bad defensively. Should be 3-0 to Valencia by now. Although Kepa should have saved the goal Valencia do have.

And as I type Kovacic scores a somewhat lucky goal. Cillesen's a joke not to cover that at his near post. 1-1.

And now Kovacic misses a sitter after lovely work by Pulisic to set him up.

Despite their defensive frailties, don’t you think their passing play is day and night compared to us ?

Ah the days of G Paulista; take me back

Southampton's passing play is better than ours right now.

Chelsea are a just a team in good form with everything going for them at the moment. We played some decent stuff this time last season or even when we smacked this same Valencia side last April.

They will come crashing at some point because they're really not very good and are just the pits defensively.

Ricky1985

Surely Valencia have got to score soon? They've got Chelsea penned in, attempt after attempt, but it just won't go in.

QuincyAbeyie

And score they did.

Chelsea is the luckiest side in this year UCL. Snatched 4 points when they should have had 0 against Ajax. Got a lucky win against Lille and now Valencia miss an absolute sitter in the last minute to win the game
