All new UCL 24/25

QuincyAbeyie

Rodrygo definitely belongs in the "insane player" category.

TambourineMan

QuincyAbeyie Absolutely, He's the most aesthetically pleasing footballer in the world today, The guy is magic.

Claudius

This is a proper hat trick. All three of these goals require high skill. That first goal is mind blowing. It’s like an Ibra goal, followed by a Vini goal, and then a Saka goal.

Sicario2

Claudius anyone that wrote this guy off doesn’t know football.

Bloke is won a WC at 19 and has unbelievable pedigree. That performance in the 2022 WC final is one of the best individual displays I’ve ever seen.

Coombs

Ancelotti's eyebrow is wild.

Claudius

Sicario2 he's one of the few players I'd pay anything to go watch in a post Messi world. He's entertaining.

TambourineMan

We're on the wrong side of the draw. Hopefully Atletico knock Real out.

daredevil

TambourineMan

Rather face Real than Atletico.

Qwiss

Semi-finals: 29/30 April & 6/7 May 2025. Arsenal vs Liverpool in the league 10th of May.

Don Pacifico

How come we're playing the second leg away? Given we finished 3rd in the group stage, I thought we'd be afforded a home tie in the second leg.

TambourineMan

Don Pacifico we're not, second leg is at home.

Don Pacifico

TambourineMan sorry, I meant in the QF.

QuincyAbeyie

daredevil you think Real will run riot against us but Atletico will run even more riot against us, or are you talking about entertainment rather than the best chance of advancing?

TambourineMan

Don Pacifico ah, both the QF and SF fixture orders are determined by a draw and we came out of the bowl first for the QF.

Don Pacifico

TambourineMan ah right, thanks!

samthegooner

Yeah count me in the camp that would rather play Real than Atletico. This is Champions League and I want to see the entertaining fixtures. An Atletico-Arsenal tie with our depleted attack would be a slog and I'm not sure it would be any easier to progress in. Hope we can get by PSV so we can see what we can do.

QuincyAbeyie

Atletico will be a pain in the arse to play against. With Real, there's some hope we could fight fire with fire and have some joy against them, even though they obviously have way more firepower than us. With Atletico, it's going to some ugly Frankenstein game where I could easily see it go 180 minutes without more than 1-2 goals.

Coombs

I'd rather lose to Real than lose to Atleti.

RowJimmy

I'd rather grind out a set piece 1-0 against Atleti than lose an exciting 4-3 to Real.
Edit: Actually I'm not sure about that, but that's the contrast.

USArsenal

Well, all of this talk is great, but its not a guarantee that we get past PSV considering our current attacking predicament.

USArsenal I thought I was going crazy and had misread what our next game was. These guys took their eye off the ball already, looking for glamour tie. Smh
