conte has always struggled in europe, no? wonder why. what a terrible season for atletico to shit the bed, had they won their two games against the weak team they would be in first and chelsea would be in danger of not advancing
Terrible. CFC's backline has been suspect for a minute though. I logged on to that match right before that play. Perotti should have nailed the game for a that. Perhaps he would have done better with El Shaawry as his target. I kid..I kid . Back to the defense: I head that Rüdiger had several lapses during the match. Maybe he was shook by being back in Rome. Nevertheless, he's been rather disappointing as of late.
At Juve he complained that it was because he didn't have the quality players to compete in Europe, and blamed management for not spending more money on players, he said something to the effect "you can't go dine in a 5 star restaurant with only 100 euros". Funny enough Allegri took basically that same squad to the CL final the next season.
Despite the lack of quality goal scoring opportunities, this Spuds v Real match is very entertaining.
I'd pull the trigger on Dele' for sure. Kid is legit. I'm not big on Kane despite the wonder season he's having.
Apoel is a straight up pub team. The fact they are drawn with BVB ATM speaks volumes about the current state of Schwarz-Gelb. SMH
Actually, I had originally put Tuchel but changed it to Dembele. But you tell no lies. I actually rate Tuchel better than Klopp.
