    Rio Ferdinand is a terrible terrible commentator. It was bad enough when he was a pundit in the studio but now you have to listen to his absolute drivel during the whole match as well.

    I don't get him. He offers absolutely no insight at all, despite all his experience. It's like listening to an annoying cunt in the pub make comments like "unreal bruv" or something. Prick.

    Didn't Eintracht Frankfurt get done for 7 by somebody in a 7-3 or something?

    If you’re not watching this & don’t at least go back to watch the highlights you’ve missed out.

    We had 15mins at the start of the second half where it was normal, but the rest has just been full on entertainment.

    This game has been a bit like rugby, in the sense that it's not about traditional tactics but more about line speed and breaking the lines.

    Yamal at times feels like he's playing a different game than every one else on the pitch.

    Barcelona can't be taken seriously. Ferran Torres, Eric Garcia, Wojech Szczesny, a couple of schoolchildren, and a high line that would make Ange wince.

    Villa and Palace have done it recently (and far better), also it gave us Alan Pardew the Ghostbuster that time.

    Arsenal would score about 10 against Barcelona from corners alone.

    The Barcelona inter game was a great bit of football. First time I've seen Yamal since the euros and he's another level. I'm not sure if he was trying to chip it in near the end but I wouldn't put it past him.

    The offside was ridiculous as well. It benefits no one that having that type of goal disallowed.

    Rio Ferdinand's World Cup wind ups probably sums him up. Brap brap brap innit bruv. Yeah man. Hahahaha. You got merked bruv.

    Ole's at the wheel. Give him da contract. He's doing his ting. Let him put his numbers there. Whatever he wants. Let him sign it. United are back.

    Ok Rio.

    He's lucky he became a footballer, otherwise who knows.

    He completely shanked it. He may have been going for the far post / top corner, but not like that.

    I was amazed Dunfries' first one stood, or perhaps more amazed that the proximate Barcelona defender didn't immediately start rolling around on the floor holding his face trying to get it disallowed. Refreshing.

    lol if Yamal ends up with the golden ball [clear direction of travel] as the Madrid chimp out will be off the scale, even for them.

    Who is this Plymouth manager? He's wearing an untucked white shirt, blue dress trousers and a pair of Yeezys. He looks like a school kid on his last day of primary 5 (or whatever you English cunts call it).

    Just read that Kane is missing out on Bayern's potential title winning game today after picking up 5 yellows over 31 games

    What an incredibly stupid fucking rule.

    Bundesliga a deeply unserious league as it is.

    Look at this goal in said game:

    That's the kind of goal you'd see in injury time over here with a team pushing on. Not the 11th minute.

    Apparently he made his way down to the sidelines to celebrate winning the title and RB scored in the 95th

    Surely this is entirely emblematic of the 'robotic style'? High press, high line, sweeper keeper. It's the latter's fault in that clip.

    Southampton must be fairly nailed on to break the Derby record now, what is it, 13 points? City and Arsenal at home and the last game at Goodison between them and their rightful place in history.

    Ah, sad times. Minus 69 goal difference as well, fucking hell.

    Elsewhere I'd missed this whole "first the points then the pints" thing with the Wolves manager, what a legend, and entirely not in keeping with modern football and perhaps culture more generally. Good on him. I suppose football culture is still somewhat in the past given the average age of match going fans must be about 60.

    If they're still in Europe at that point, I'd encourage them to throw that match if it means SEVEN English sides in the Champions League.

    United resting a lot of players for Bilbao as expected.

    Be very interesting to see how Obi does in his first start.
