    Thought Ronaldo's celebration was justified, the man is just passionate and completely dominated the Champions League this season.

    As for Simeone, I love him too. Hate Atletico but Simeone is fantastic, another passionate guy. Would people rather he just slumped in his chair and took the huff? It's the biggest game in the biggest competition in club football and his team was seconds away from winning it.

    Some great players in the Atletico team that I like aswell, Koke, Miranda, Juanfran to name a couple. But my hatred for them, their fans and their star man Diego Costa far exeeds any love I have for Simeone and their players. * them. Go on Bale.

    Are you implying that we could have won La Liga and reached the European Cup final if we had Diego Costa in our current squad? :smiley-laughing002:

    They have one of the best defences and keeper in Europe.

    We are a 4th seed European side. Did you not see that in the CL this season. None of our players would get in that Atletico side.

    While I detest RM, I really hate Ateltico even more.

    I'm glad that scummy * club didn't win the CL, and their dirty cheating * thug of a manager when he was a player was left with nothing as were their cuntish scummy fans.

    I feel quite sad when I think about David Villa. He was immense at Valencia and for Spain, and as weird as this sounds, maybe moving to Barca wasn't the greatest decision. Of course he won plenty of trophies but he was always shifted out to the left wing. Feel like since going to Barca he's never been the same player.

    The few times I've seen him play this season, he has been so average. Shame, really.

    Did anyone notice last night that when the Real Madrid players went up to get the trophy there was one of their players wearing a t-shirt with a Union Jack on the front and some Spanish writing on the back?

    Anyone know what the t-shirt was about??

    I was half canned last night but I'm positive the player was Arbeloa and I'm pretty sure it said 'Live Forever' on the front with the UJ. Have no clue as to the meaning of it though.

    This is as stupid as that John Terry trend. Ronaldo has as much right (if not more) as any player to celebrate.

    Obviously not. I never said anything like that.

    I said none of our players would get in that team but I was just commenting that as individuals those players are not that much better.

    When we played Atletico in the EL a while back they didnt embarrass us and we were unlucky not too take at least a point from them. Most of last nights team played in those games:

    Courtois
    Godin
    Miranda
    Filipe
    Juanfran
    Gabi
    Koke
    Tiago
    Adrian

    None of those players stood out as world class against the like of Loovens and Majstorovic.

    Just goes to show what a great job Simeone has done there.

    Arbeloa, known for wearing random t-shirts, that's Oasis merchandise I believe, may be wrong though.
