Atletico (A) - Post-Match Thread

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

Picked on foden both games nothing but a bully love to see him do that to haaland next year if he signs and we play them.

No chance!

Still remember his arse going in the league cup semis v Liverpool.

Looks like Richard Ashcroft doing an Ali G impression.

They didn't have to reduce in the end as UEFA suspended the punishment.

?? what

uefa are a joke and rules are for manchester city only

That is why it was right he wasnt playing last night , no self control or awareness of how to play in the grown ups cl

Doubt he was the only one. Would think it was pretty widespead last night. Doubt Zinchenko was saying please sir leave him alone when dragging him off Phil. Just that you have it in for Grealish and to be honest you did before he signed and now won't let it go.

Only after it was referred to CAS by AM. Hope UEFA want revenge like they would if it was us!!!

Are Atletico today's equivalent of Leeds United in the 70's? Talented individuals but a bunch of dirty bastard's.

It was reported yesterday that the attendance reduction was not enforced after AM appealed it. If that’s true, UEFA again demonstrate that they are a joke.

For once that isn’t true. It would have been a joke if they had reduced the attendance by5000 given all the tickets were sold. How do you pick who can’t get in anymore? Sorry Pedro - I know you travel 200 miles and stay overnight but now you can’t go. They should reduce capacity for a game in the future not with 2 weeks notice. Otherwise that is more Uefa arsehole decision making

100%.

Imagine seeing that last night and thinking any of our lot were at fault?

Laughable.

Let’s just imagine, for a second, we were 1 down with 2 minutes left and Suarez is fouled off the pitch. He then rolls over 4 times to get back on the pitch and Cancello tries to get him off and it all kicks off. I doubt we’d be criticising anyone other than Suarez.

NB: I’m not criticising Phil here but him, Fernandinho‘s ‘cruciate’ and Eddies ‘dislocated shoulder’ were all things that would be universally criticised if the Spaniards had been ‘practising the dark arts’. I, for one, am glad we finally get it and, if the referee isn’t going to take control, we are prepared to employ whatever we need to to get through. I’d rather be in the semi final following a game like yesterday than have played a beautiful game and got done 1-0, after trying some fancy flick or such like, then lost on penalties.

 

[yerwot?]

the ref obviously tried to live up to his "reputation" of letting the game "flow". He now has a reputation for being fuckin' 'opeless. Out of his shallow.
VAR could be used to highlight the times he bottled out on thuggery causing the game to spiral into anarchy. But it wont.....surprising no one....

Would have loved to have andy Morrison in that tunnel at the end.
Someone would have got hurt haha

 

[The perfect fumble]

The ref was trying to play until they scored but had to give in eventually!

The sun was coming up.
