    He's still 11th in minutes for us and is still disputing the fact that he wasn't fit to play the world cup. He's saying he was perfectly fine to play.

    Manage what better exactly?

    He gave a report that ref favoured Barca in that game to Bartu. That was obvious to anyone who watched the games anyway. Don't think he had the power to pick and choose refs in CL like for La Liga, CDR games. That's upto UEFA committee.

    That Lyon was something else with Big Benz. He was so silky smooth in movements prior to his many injuries. It's easy to see why he was so widely compared tot Ronaldo Nazario.

    That 2009 was so special. Getting Ronaldo almost felt like an obvious and sure thing, but Benz coming as well was like stealing the crown jewels - everybody wanted him. We really did get a generational striker in him. What a legend.

    Off topic, but what a world where people call Dani Carvajal a bootlicker amongst ton of other insults, a guy that basically grew up in the club.

    I think he's having a terrible moment in terms of performance but the insults are pretty tasteless. Just because he said he feels there is no manipulation going on with VAR.

    Like, what the f is this

    So apparently there are leaked pages from the reports Negreira delivered. One of the reports is about Lahoz, the way he interacts with players and how he sees the game.

    You kind of have to feel for Lahoz. Gets treated like dirt from Barca because of his way of officiating, accused of being a cheat from Madrid, at the end of the day, it's an absolutely shit job to be a referee at this level.

    There's nothing on him to suggest he took money or was influenced in his decision making.

    And in that same time period, Barca got a grand total 2 PKs at home vs Madrid ... :ROFLMAO:

    Technically, that is a 100% difference.

    It’s natural that if the integrity of the game is in question in domestic leagues, then so is qualification for European tournaments.

    Knocked out PSG and he still might get fired early. Big club shit.

    Can't lie, I feel like we should be considering doing the same to Carlo... it's harsh but it is what it is

    Meanwhile Galtier and Potter still have jobs lol

    Sounds like they want to sign Tuchel before there's competition in the summer. Sacking Carlo right now makes no sense. Just like we didn't care La Liga race being over early in 2017-18 and ZZ ended up winning the CL. We still have a solid chance of winning CL with Carlo.

    I feel ZZ will return in the summer if Flo calls him. ZZ told Flo "Madrid is my family" during BDR ceromony few months back so whatever tension there was in 2021 has eased. And then we had ZZ on the Bernabeu pitch presenting BDR to Benz along with Modric.

    Zidane is a must after Carlo! No one comes close.

    I don't get where it went wrong with a stronger squad and resources. He's on his 3rd year too.

    Bayern, a club of that size has to take action. But I'm suprised how he didn't live up and more key where he will go to next. He's only 35 lol.

    Hahaha

    The same organisation that is giving refunds on UEFA Champions League final tickets to Liverpool fans for their shocking treatment in a final.

    The same organisation that takes back handers from clubs avoiding FFP punishment.

    Meh.

    I’d be giving someone else a chance before Zidane. Seriously.

    I don’t want to see Vini and Valverde knocking in 100 crosses per game for there to be zero players in the box again.

    They're probably cheaper than Negreira too.
