Do you not feel that the same corruption exists domestically as well though? We've just managed to overcome that a lot sooner and because it's 38 games it's a lot harder for bad decisions in a few games to derail us?
When you look back at our experience in the CL in previous seasons, there's the penalty at Anfield which could have made it 3-1 (we'd have possibly missed it anyway!). There's the Sane goal wrongly ruled out in the return leg which makes it 2-0 at halftime and therefore advantage City at that stage. Then the Spurs game where we get a penalty and miss it (but was it a penalty?), the handball goal from Llorente which would be ruled out now... and we're out.
There are a lot of close calls and definite corruption but we beat them in the courts, we've stayed in the competition and we're now in the final.
For me, my mentality is that the best way to make our point is to win it. They've tried so hard to ban us and quite probably given us some dodgy calls too, but it hasn't stopped us and winning it would be the ultimate insult for them. The same way winning the league was monumental. Not just because we won it, but because the rags were so close to. It was all the more special for how it happened.
I feel like, in not caring about the CL, we're at odds with the club and players across the world. We're giving into UEFA whereas we should be taking them head on and trying to dominate their competition to prove we can't be stopped.
