Classic MU

Most preferred to least preferred UCL teams that I want to face as a Real Madrid fan:

1. Manchester City. Sure they are the weakest team on paper, but they do have some match winners: Aguero and De Bruyne. The lack of experience of City could be exploited as few players on their roster has never been this far in Europe. Their back is fragile and they are the most inconsistent side remaining in the UCL.

2. Bayern. Sure Bayern has more star power than Atletico Madrid and I am not doubting that. But Bayern plays a system that Madrid is well equipped to counter and I think Zidane can expose Pep's Bavarian Tiki-Taka just by playing off the breaks with pacy players in Ronaldo, Bale and have some long-balls from former Bayern player: Kroos. Playing against a possession heavy team in Bayern that likes to pass around and sometimes is direct requires a competent defensive midfielder and we got one: Casemiro.

3. Atletico Madrid. Goddamnit, I hate playing Atletico Madrid no matter what. If there is any side that Real Madrid tends to struggle, it's against overly defensive sides and guess what? Atletico Madrid has one of the best, if not the best defense in Europe. They also have some good firepower with Griezmann leading the line, and the revenge factor of knocking them out in the QF's and the UCL finals will surely be a motivating factor for Atletico. Point and simple, they may not impress you in the paper, but they are SOOOO annoying.

So Leicester can win the league tonight if Spurs do not win.

Going to be an awesome game, Chelsea would love to end Spurs title hopes (they have even said they would let Leicester beat them if it meant they win the league instead of Spurs).

Spurs cannot afford a loss or a draw, they have to win.

This is gonna be a good one

Match fixing BEFORE the Italian comes in??? Talk about a change.

Of course Chelsea are going to say that, doesn't mean they would.

The majority of their players don't give two fucks about the Chelsea-Spurs rivalry and even if they did, you only have to look back to the end of the 94/95 season where Blackburn needed any kind of result against Liverpool to win the league to stop United winning the league, Liverpool, despite being eternal hatred rivals to United, still beat Blackburn 2-1 while United bottled the chance to win the league against West Ham, Chelsea aren't just going to throw away a game for the sheer lulz when most of them are playing just to have stay in the team next season.

Hopefully there will be no "Calciopolli" in EPL. As much I'd love to see Leicester to win this year, Spurs are on fire as of late.... sure it will be interesting.

haha I know right


and I am sure they wouldn't actually roll over but frankly, even if Spurs do win tonight I fancy Leicester to win next week at home against Everton.


I live very close to Stamford Bridge so can hear what is going on at the moment haha

I do hope Leicester wins this EPL season, would love to see "another" team wins the EPL (outside Man. City, Man. United, and Chelsea. It's been a while already for both Arsenal and Liverpool to win the league)

Making fun of Arsenal is great, though. I don't want to lose that.

NOTE: The Spurs wins won't hurt as well, but yes. I root for Leicester.
And xD. I actually root for Arsenal in EPL, but I always want Reading FC to come back.

As much as it stings me as I am a Liverpool fan, since we last won the league

Peter Schmeichel won the league with United
Had a son
And now his son is on the brink of winning the leage.


Great first half so far, very fiesty affair

Set up for a tense finish now. Chelsea to score a last minute equaliser and ruin Spurs' day?

Fair fucking play to Leicester, honestly were the best team this season by a mile! deserve it so much and i'm happy for them

plus, fuck spurs!!!!!!

Can't believe it. So happy for them. What an underdog story

Football, bloody hell.

Congrats to Leicester. They deserved it

Now to wait for the FA to cite all of the players fighting in last nights game. They're gonna have a busy week

When a Real fan calls Atletico the biggest threat and for that I thank you sir.

Horrible first half by City

I suppose City were just happy to even be in the semi-finals. City was rather fortunate that they were even in the game if it weren't for Joe Hart. Pep got a lot of work to do in shaping City. As for the UCL finals? A derby in San Siro that is actually meaningful? Say wha?

A derby in the hottest derby stadium.... too bad they are not the two Milans

Glorious moment of the Foxes, the moment that will be cherised through history of the club and the league.... Well deserved, Leicester!
