Bayern v City would be an even better script but I'll settle for Abu Dhabi v Qatar.

Bayern v City semi final followed by Bayern v Barca final. Oh Pep...

The earlier City gets knocked out the better it is for Pep. The further Pellegrini takes them the more pressure it is on Pep to replicate it.

I say knock them out! Then he can do what BVB are doing this season in the Europa League - domination! Easier trophy to win in his first season than the CL.

So what if you think he should have started the game. You asked why he was brought on? And he showed it. Whether or not he starts the game has no impact on the decision to sub him in which has paid off. By your logic if a player who should have started the game but did not, should not even be considered to bring on even when the manager for whatever reason realized his mistakes and tries to rectify it albeit late. Heard of better late than never?

No like I said. Decision to bring him on as a sub has no relevance to the decision to not start him. Completely different cases here. I'm not disagreeing with you that he should have started the game instead of Oscar. You questioned the decision/point of bringing him on yet it was immediately justified. The criticism should not have been "what's the point of bringing him on" because the point is to rectify the mistake you just mentioned, that he should have started but it doesn't mean the substitution is wrong, just that the mistake of not starting him shouldn't have been made in the first place.

Note that I'm in complete agreement that Oscar is overrated and shouldn't have started. A "lazy" Mata would still have been more productive than Oscar's overall output. Remember there was a time people thought Oscar>Coutinho?

Both Martinez and Rodgers have used it with some degree of success but only in short stints. Martinez's was when he saved Wigan from relegation in the final run in of the season quite a few seasons back. Rodgers' was when Liverpool had quite a streak mid season after switching to it due to early season struggles.

No one has yet to use it full/long term and has had success with it in England. But that maybe due to a lack of sample size since it is not popular with managers in England and probably not something English players are used to playing in.

Lol arguing over some hail mary dream signing. Forget Pogba. Think Radja.

KdB MotM vs PSG

Luis MotM? vs Barca

Good guy Chelsea!

Nope. Only applicable to teams who are already title 'contenders' in the first place. See Arsenal. Sell them Cech still can't win shit.

Nope. How about keeping the exact same squad and going on to win the league out of spite for Wenger because why not?

Second only to Florentino Perez's Real Madrid.

Yup can confirm. Spurs will be at 70pts with a draw with Leicester at 77pts and 2 games remaining. This is a must win game for Spurs.

Oh and please don't be a party pooper like United. The world wants to see Leicester lift the title and they decided to spoil the party.

Then again it would be pretty anti-climactic for Leicester to be confirmed champions away from the pitch. I want to see their emotions after them winning the game on the pitch and celebrating with their fans at their home stadium next week.

google lah

her nudes are all over the internet

At least you are making the Newacastle v Sunderland relegation battle much more exciting

Chelsea sitting in midtable somehow played a deciding role in both the title race and relegation battle.

They already want him in. Clearly winning is more important to them than anything. All those talks of stylistic points by playing the Utd way is BS. Bunch of glory hunters just wants to get back ahead of the pack to regain their bragging right.

Well, remember Moyes? Not sacked until mathematically impossible to achieve top 4. I think they waiting to see if he can deliver it plus the FA cup.

Lol. And before anyone roasts him for tripping the kid...
