    Some crazy score lines there mate.

    I take it they all drew Arsenal?

    Carlo Ancelotti is the only manager to have won the Champions League three times, with Milan in 2003 + 2007 and Real Madrid in 2014. He also won the old European Cup twice as a player with Milan in 1989 and 1990.

    Bob Paisley was the only manager to win the old European Cup three times.

    Multiple managers have won the modern Champions League twice: Heynckes, Guardiola, Mourinho, Ferguson, Del Bosque, and Hitzfeld. Numerous managers won the old European Cup twice: Sacchi, Happel, Clough, Cramer, Kovacs, Rocco, Munoz, Herrera, Guttmann, Carniglia and Villalonga.

    Dortmund V Monaco game in doubt seemingly as there was an incident at a Dortmund bus and a player injured.

    Explosion in Dortmund. Brother just texted me from there to say that it's off.

    Edit: probably off. Bartra in hospital.

    Barca team looks a bit of a state...

    Ter Stegen
    Mascherano Pique Umtiti Mathieu
    Rakitic Roberto Iniesta
    Messi Suarez Neymar​


    They will badly miss Busquets as the other 3 in the middle dont defend too well and then no real fullbacks either.

    Surely It's Roberto at RB and Mascherano in the centre?

    Maybe, thats just how they showed it on BT. I thought it may be that and Umtiti at left back instead of Mathieu too as Juventus have Cuadrado on the right who will roast Mathieu for pace.

    Well considering Roberto has played there most of the season, you'd imagine BT have it wrong.

    Having been there six miles from the stadium seems like an odd place to do it. I've never seen that before in any German games. Near the stadium, sure. But not that far away.
