That CL final was entertaining.
Well deserved Chelsea.

[Thorn]

Yep fair play Chelsea and in particular Tuchel, another great job done on City.

[Emphyrio]

I wonder if City will ever win it at this stage.

[Thorn]

If they nab Kane then yeah I think they will but out from that , no.

[Blackout]

Poor enough CL this year.

Jaysus I enjoyed that. Was a great game for 70 mins and a bit of squeaky bum time at the end but I reckon the better team won.

Just seen that Matt Holland strike vs Cameroon was 19 years ago today. I remember staying up all night on the sauce before the game at 7 a.m. and I was fuckeyed by the time the thing kicked off. Decent goal as well.

Aye great goal. If both Keane and McCarthy copped the fuck on we could have made a run at winning that World Cup. And I'm serious when i say that. With Keane we were as good as anyone else that year.

[astfgyl]

I honestly believe we had a chance at winning that World Cup as well. It hurts to think what might have been and also that we will never get anywhere near it again. Well we might but I'll be too old or dead to give a fuck

That team we had in 91/92 was the only comparable one. If only we hadn't fucked up on the last night, Euro 92 would have been a serious opportunity.

Are France the most obvious favourite after the first round of matches? I thought they'd a good handle on Germany last night and should have won by more.

[Trev]

France are just unreal at the moment, even a team made up of the players that weren't selected would have a good shot at it

I'd say it's a toss up between them and Italy who've been in great form since Mancini took over

[Emphyrio]

I liked the look of Belgium in the first game but ya, Italy look a very good side too. They're the top 3 teams for me. I find some of the French players hard to like. Griezmann in particular.

Oops.

That fella's bank account needs to be investigated!
