And that is precisely why I think that Bayern fans have taken their crying way too far.

I don't even think we were bad in the first few months either. Sure we were not awesome, but nothing truly disturbing. Like I said, that Celta defeat was sheer bad luck, we pummeled them that game only to leave the stadium with zero points. Losing to a great RM side (let's be honest) at their...

I think that is only in the case of non-deliberate handball stopping the ball from finding the net.

He hates RM even more than we do. And if anything, there was zero controversy over Madrid's goals last year.

Sure they were better than us that season, never said anything to the contrary. But the 4-0 was highly misleading. With our situation back then, Bayern would have gone through anyways but it would have never been 7-0.

Not every handball is a penaldo mate (unless you are RM in La Liga) it has to be definitely deliberate.

Rest of Europe getting dirty and desperate in their efforts to avoid even more embarrassment at the hands of Spanish clubs in the near future. The severity of the punishment is grotesquely disproportionate to the alleged "crime".

1) First goal was a foul on Alves. It was not 100% a foul, but I would say, 80% a foul. It should have been disallowed imo. 2) Second goal, clear off-side. Not by a big margin, but still clearly offside. 3) The third goal is one of those mysteries in the annals of football. I still can't...

There are 3 types of Barca fans here: 1) A minority that is pleased with your injuries. I disagree. 2) Those who say that this is a good chance for revenge. I disagree. 3) Those who say that it's better to face a full-strength Bayern so that if we win it will be hailed as triumph, and if we...

My God! Cesc as number "9", along with washed-up Villa and Pedro. Song (!) in midfield. Bartra-Adriano in defense! Jesus, it was a good result to lose 3-0 in that game now that I come to think of it. Edit: my memory has largely blocked out that 2nd leg since it was a dead-rubber and such a bad...

Yes, the tie was a dead rubber after your 3 first goals in the first leg that should never have counted.

Moreover, Ribery is expected to make it for both games. So, to be honest, their only serious absence is Robben.

The actual game itself may force Bayern to park the bus, not a cautious decision.

That is still a very good team, and you could park the bus, play on the counter etc. It is not over by any means. In fact the odds for the tie only changed a little bit (from 3.55 for Bayern to win the thing, to 3.7) Plus, Lewandowski may in fact play. Ribery might even play. So, who knows? In...

The primary reason for winning the CL is for us to reach five as well as break our recent CL drought (if it could be called that) The second reason is for Leo to get the Golden Ball for the 5th time and at the same time deny CR7. The third reason is to deny all the other 3 clubs, and of course...

I had to go away for a while and was too busy, then I lost my password etc. I also prefer StarLord as nickname. And yes, you are right, I was not the only one, but we certainly were the extreme minority.

In what sense? This is part of what I said back then, right before the Celta loss when people were losing their shit over Lucho after the narrow PSG defeat: And right after the game, when everyone was calling for Lucho's head: and:

I was Schumi before.

I know, but how much longer do you think can this last?

If the EPL financial advantage (which is all but inevitable for the foreseeable future) is kept in some kind of proportion, then I am not worried one little bit. But if it continues to grow (and it is growing at an appalling rate) then we (as well as the rest of continental Europe) are bound to...
