This season was the first that Hazard ever scored more than 20 goals for Chelsea in all competitions. I'm not sure Real Madrid fans are getting the player they think they're getting.

RIP

This feels like a pre-season friendly. No atmosphere because of low ticket allocation and hardly anyone being able to get there.

Arsenal have had to leave Mkhitaryan at home because the final is in Azerbaijan, and Armenians are not allowed into the country. Fans with Mkhitaryan shirts are being stopped by police to make sure they're not from Armenia too. Well done UEFA.

Big game today.

You don't need to compare him to Mbappe to make his tally look unfavourable though. He has 8, while Willian has 17 and Pedro has 16. Heck, even Theo Walcott managed 15.

Based on the way he struggled with Llorente I'm not sure going straight from the Eredivisie to the Premier League would be a good idea for him, let alone to a club as calamitous as United right now.

Loftus-Cheek now out with a ruptured Achilles tendon because Chelsea thought it would be a good idea to fly to the USA for a friendly with New England Revolution on a crappy pitch before a European cup final. I don't know what clowns are running that club at the moment...

Zaha is the most dispossessed player in the league, and by quite a distance too. He would drive you absolutely mental at Barcelona.

You are detached from reality if you genuinely believe that Liverpool would rather win the Champions League than the Premier League. That is 100% not the case. And City have never won the Champions League, they can't feel like a true elite team until they have. Same for PSG.

There's a lot more luck involved in winning the Champions League. A domestic league is much better at sorting out which teams are better than others. You can win a Champions League by only beating one or two top teams along the way, and even then you might only draw and go through on penalties...

I have no idea what the FA will do about the Nations League situation. The semi-final is so close to the Champions League final that many in the squad are not going to get the proper preparation. It's going to be a struggle to get past Netherlands at the best of times, never mind now.

Spurs actually have a lower wage bill than Juve, Atletico, Dortmund etc. and they didn't sign anyone in the summer either.

I wouldn't take Mané over Sterling. Yes he has one more goal this season, but eleven fewer assists. I think two assists all season is pretty poor for a player in that position and especially in a Liverpool side like this. I would probably have Salah over him too.

Choudhury. Not very creative, but he's an immense ball winner.

It's probably not what it seems like, but Arsenal are all but out of the Champions League for next season, and this was just after today's game ended.

How many leagues are good then? Just one?

It's a horrible injury. The fact that he was able to walk on it somewhat might offer some small glimmer of hope that it's not on the most severe end of the spectrum though.
