Real Madrid (H) | CL SF 2nd Leg | Post-Match Thread

Just hope we get over the line now against Inter, it won't be easy
 
I’ll be at the download festival on June 10th, good job I’m there for 4 days as I’ll get to see Metallica on the Thursday night, they can get fucked on the Saturday (they’re playing twice)…sorry Lars, City are more important.

I’ll proudly have my City flag flapping about above my tent….and the shirt will be on from the Wednesday to the Sunday!!!
 
Just rewatched it, absolutely superior all over the pitch. They didn’t have a clue on how to deal with it and it showed. We choked the life out of them before we’d even got the first goal, that was just the first of 4 nails in their coffin.

Superb. What a time to be fucking blue.

My favourite thing about all of these “Liverpool, United, Arsenal, Real Madrid, Barca, Bayern can’t compete with unrestrained, unlimited financial power” articles is that they completely ignore the fact that multiple levels of financial accounting and spending rules were devised and implemented—mostly at the demand of the clubs referenced—specifically to restrain and limit our spending and finances.

They are laughable bad faith arguments meant to distract from the fact that all of those clubs employed similarly high spending for decades before City won the lottery, and most continue to spend as much or more than us today.

And several only have that financial power because of similar massive cash injections (United, Liverpool, Chelsea), government subsidy (Real Madrid, Barca), and/or their leagues allowing them to have a near monopoly on talent (Bayern, Real Madrid), which includes allowing them to tap up the beat players to sign them on frees after they run out their contract, with no independent compensation determinations or regulatory intervention.

This is not about “financial doping”, as if there is such a thing we only adopted the program originated by the other dominant clubs in world football.

This is about the established order pushing against the tides of change and weaponising captured media and governing bodies to try to stop it.

But, as the old saying goes, they’re just pissing in to the wind.

And, once more, they know it. This is them raging against the dying of their light.

Yeah, united fans today crying and saying were like a kid buying all the best packs on fifa

No club has room to talk when they're pissing 80 million plus on players like Maguire and Sancho. Let's not forget these pricks were spending nearly £30m on Veron over 20 years ago, that was obscene money back in the day, as was the similar fee they paid for Ferdinand. Even back in the 90s they used money to take players like Andy Cole of one of their nearest competitors halfway through a season.

We haven't bought success any more than they did for a long period of time. And the only difference between the clubs in the past ten years in terms of transfers is we have bought well and they have pissed money up the wall on mediocre players.

Plus we are playing and dominating in a era when the likes of Chelsea can spend a lot of money, Liverpool can drop 80 million on a striker, the rags can spend that amount on multiple players, whereas they dominated an era where pretty much nobody could match them. What other Premier league clubs were spending £30m on central defenders like camel gob nearly 25 years ago?

But people are just bitter and have short or selective memories
