too bad for Villa, but i guess going out with a win, is better than losing twice (like Real Madrid)


and they are still very much in with a chance of european football next season (either CL or EL or the ECL, all of them still up for grabs the final phase of this PL season)





LOL at Harry Kane wanting to win trophies, but it ain't happening again this season in terms of the CL :hehe:

I've not watched any of it but the Utd game looks absolutely mental!!

[Candy Annie Cane]

The Utd game was unbelievable. We were amazing first half and the first bit of the second half, then reverted to Utd of this season, rubbish.

The last 5 minutes were brilliant :dance:

Doesn't it say everything about the europa league competition that both Man U and Spurs are in the semi finals and are currently sitting 14th and 15th in the league :laugh:

[Nicky91]

Bodo/Glimt through after penalties against Lazio

:o




Djurgarden semi finalists in conference league :)

[Nicky91]

a good day that was for nordic teams i guess



i reckon the final will be Fiorentina vs Chelsea, but Fiorentina/Betis could end up being a entertaining semi final, and who knows what more Djurgarden can do in the underdog role against Chelsea

[Zizu]

Well after weeks of drab uneventful games we have had Newcastle v Palace , then Villa v PSG , Real Madrid b Arsenal and ManU v Lyon

[Zizu]

Watching ManU over the months

The only two players that have really impressed me are Ugarte and Zirkzee

28 minutes to the latest bloodbath


Aston Villa v Newcastle

McGinn , Kamara , Mings and Cash


V


Joelinton , Guimarães , Schär and Burn



Let the PAIN and cheating begin


I’d prefer Villa to win then there’s a chance they will both miss CL qualification

[Zizu]

https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20250419/20b263c07136bc8fae72cc89d270f9d2.jpg

[Zizu]

Wjoo hoo

Trippier smashed into McGinn after 7 seconds then Villa scored seconds later

[Zizu]

No way Isak finishes this match

Mings , Cash or McGinn will get to him sooner than later

[Zizu]

Watkins crashes a shot against the crossbar

[Zizu]

Love watching Rogers

[Zizu]

Burn just took Rogers out then Trippier stood on Watkins’s face !!

Accidentally ?

Joelinton smashed into Kamara


Not one yellow card shown !!

This is what happens - refs are too soft or lenient so teams will just keep on fouling till someone gets hurt

[Zizu]

Asensio just did a Sterling ( scuffed a sitter)

[Zizu]

Guimarães with his FOURTH really bad tackle - still not booked !!

Ref actually gives him a stern lecture and Guimarães argues back angrily

Still NO booking

What the actual fcuk !?

[Zizu]

Gordon on and up against Cash

I dislike both of them so hopefully they clash repeatedly over the last 25 minutes

[Zizu]

Fabulous

Villa 3:1 up

Two deflected own goals by the thuggish Scharr and Burn

Karma

[Zizu]

4:1 to Villa

Newcastle have been by far the dirtier team today so it’s nice to see them getting a beating

Watkins has also hit the woodwork twice as well

[bots]

newcastle losing is a great result for city

[Zizu]

newcastle losing is a great result for city


.. and the others going for top 5

Newcastle are an embarrassment to football

I hate watching them kick and elbow opponents , body checking , time wasting .

Then these tough guys go to ground so easily

Arsenal v Palace

8pm Sky Sports

Looking forward to a good game from Arsenal plus the bonus is we get to see Eze and Wharton

[Zizu]

This maybe wishful thinking on my part but we seem to be seeing fewer female pundits and co-commentators !!!

Long may it continue !!

Oddly enough, I have noticed an increase in female pundits/ co-commentators on TalkSport which is extremely annoying - usually Lucy fcuking Ward or that big -boned lesbian who is a proper cockey beggar ..https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20250423/f6ef09e803f336569c11b9aa031ba10d.jpg

[Zizu]

Whoooo hoo

I will have to start paying more attention to the Championship mow !!


Wrexham and Norwich ( Jack Wilshire )

[Zizu]

The Hollywood dream is one step closer to reality: Wrexham have won a THIRD successive promotion to move up into the Championshipcourtesy of a 3-0 win over Charlton Athletic.

The Welsh outfit's latest triumph means Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney's side are now just one division below the Premier League. The Hollywood megastars have transformed the club and the local community since their takeover in 2021 and both were on hand to celebrate their latest and greatest feat yet.

PSG are looking better man for man than Arsenal .. playing AWAY from home as well

Class player

[Zizu]

I think I’d prefer PSG to reach the final even though my beloved Barca will probably find them harder to beat than Arsenal.

What a final of beautiful football it will be

Gawd willing

It’s refreshing to see two teams on show- who like Barca don’t have any hatchet men …

Arsenal just hanging on- they only have Nwaneri to bring on

PSG will destroy Arsenal next

I don’t think the Parisians have got out if 2nd gear yet

[Zizu]

The word out of PSG is that they would take a 1:0 DEFEAT - pre match

[Zizu]

What a poor free kick from Rice

All that top corner area to aim for and fires it into the crowded box

[Zizu]

Just shows why Arsenal are so keen on keeping Partey in the summer.,

When he plays well Arsenal play well


Same applied to when Barca had Busquets

[Zizu]

As for the run in ..

It seems that Forest have a far easier end to the season

[Nicky91]

PSG should've gotten a penalty as well honestly


that one arsenal defender was blocking very clearly with his arm




and LOL Merino asking for a penalty :fan: while PSG very clearly first played the ball and then accidentally brought down Merino




was a stunner of a goal by Dembele, also a super slick, clean assist by Kvaratskelia

[Nicky91]

tonight

Barca vs Inter


idk why but i don't see Barca having a 1, 2, 3 easy ride even though Inter have been in a meh form in the league lately, you never can underestimate Inter tbf, especially if Dumfries is in form, he's phenomenal down the entire right flank

[Zizu]

Mbappe scored his first goal from a direct free kick last Saturday ending drought of 3, 036 days. !!!!!

[Zizu]

One down … https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20250430/16261b04f3cf374b93a0c00b072b7db6.jpg

[Zizu]

One down

Inter score after 30 seconds

[Zizu]

Barca already in the groove playing beautiful , beautiful football

It’s not ideal to be trailing by a goal to an Italian team though

Inter go 2:0 up

A second fabulous goal .. dangerous play though scissor kick next to Pedri’s face


They are saying if Pedri stuck his head in and got kicked in - they would disallow the goal for dangerous play FFS

[Zizu]

Wow

Barca now running riot

Hit the crossbar then score twice

2:2 after 38 mins


Inter 10% possession
Two shots two goals

[Father Chris Mouse]

Mental first half! Inter will most likely put up a fight, but it's Barca's year i reckon.

[Zizu]

Pity Lewandowski has gone lame just as the quadruple was looking ever possible


Lamal is an amazing talent .. loads of people aren’t even aware of him yet but his stats are even better than Messi at similar ages

[Zizu]

Barca playing with complete second string defence !

Even the keeper had to be brought out of retirement when we lost Ter Stegen

[Zizu]

Barca started the second half slowly
Maybe tiredness

Time for Gavi or Feran Lopez maybe

[Zizu]

3:2 to Inter !!


Barca struggle to defend against this team of comparative giants

[Zizu]

Fcuking hell !

3:3

Raphinha with a 30 yard screamer !

[Zizu]

Lopez on for Barca

[Father Chris Mouse]

Mental mental mental!!!

Inter continue to kick Barca players as the ref is too lenient

Lewandowski is such a big miss

Barella has fouled about 12 times .. no yellow yet

[Zizu]

Gavi on !!

[Father Chris Mouse]

Ref favouring Barcelona, like they always do. Something should do about it really. Barca has the officials in their back pocket, always have done.

[Zizu]

Lamal hits the crossbar again

[Zizu]

3 minutes extra time ??

All the fouls and substitutions and a head injury?

Definitely the worst .. starting with their manager Simione and now his son who plays and is even worse than his dad ever was !!

He hacks people down then dives to the floor

I honestly dread playing them ..

[Zizu]

Crazy to think that Arsenal have had a relatively good season plus their keeper is top of charts for clean sheets whilst ManC appear to have a disastrous season and YET we see ManC are favourites to now leapfrog Arsenal into second spot !!!

[Zizu]

Earlier I sat down late to watch the big game Villa v Fulham only to be greeted by the relentless chatter of Lucy Ward .. she was co commentating not a pundit !

Chatting relentlessly whilst play was going on ..

I considered muting her and syncing with the Talksport commentary but instead I turned over and watched Atletico Madrid

[Father Chris Mouse]

Nobody would have put a bet on them losing 51 games between them before the season ends

How can you say it was a clear penalty

The ref thought it was a good tackle as did the pundits after watching many replays

It was VAR that told the ref to take a look even though it wasn’t a clear and obvious mistake ..

Inter kicking Yamal relentlessly without yellow cards

Ref doesn’t bother checking our penalty claim but checks and gives theirs.

Ref stops our attack because Inter’s star player was down with an ankle injury !!

Wtf is happening

at least Chelsea are going to play a european cup final (and no i don't see Djurgarden suddenly winning 0-4 in London lol), its only conference league but any prize is better than nothing to play for i think



tonight PSG vs Arsenal, i think last week proved that PSG aren't Real Madrid, and Arsenal thought they'd do it the same as against Real


i see chances for Arsenal but i just think PSG might have the edge but it'll be a tough and exciting match for sure

for me this weekend

Fortuna Sittard, 3 points are a must in this weeks home game vs NAC Breda if we still want to stay in the contention for european ticket play offs and hoping for some bad results from our direct competition (Groningen play away vs AZ) (Sparta play away vs Almere City) (Heracles play away vs Willem II) (NEC play away vs Ajax) so yeah 3 points are a must

[Zizu]

at least Chelsea are going to play a european cup final (and no i don't see Djurgarden suddenly winning 0-4 in London lol), its only conference league but any prize is better than nothing to play for i think



tonight PSG vs Arsenal, i think last week proved that PSG aren't Real Madrid, and Arsenal thought they'd do it the same as against Real


i see chances for Arsenal but i just think PSG might have the edge but it'll be a tough and exciting match for sure


I will be rooting for PSG

Arsenal have zero chance against Inter

[bots]

inter are a phenomenal force when they are on their game

[Father Chris Mouse]

So happy Inter beat that scummy team full of spoiled brats. Brilliant stuff :joker:

Disgusting how they acted, spitting at another human being is revolting, knew Zizu wouldn't say anything about it. All their complaining, tantrums and crying makes it all the more sweeter they got beat in such a devastating way :D

Barca's disgusting behaviour aside, it was an epic 2 legs of football. Best team went through.

[Zizu]

I’m already over it ..

We are going for the treble - that’s enough for such a young team .. next year we should be unplayable when the youngsters are a year older and we get the injured players back

Missing both fullbacks , the main CB , the keeper and Lewandowski was always gonna be a tough ask .


As for the alleged spitting incident

It probably never happened …

“ Poor quality footage appears to show Martinez's head jerk towards Acerbi as the Inter man runs into the box.”


Roll on Sunday

Come on the Toon !!!

[Father Chris Mouse]

Lol you hate Newcastle, always crying and complaining about then being brutes, dirtiest team in the league, yet you want them to win just to spite me :joker:

But hey, you're "already over it"

Childish, just like your "beloved" Barcelona. Fwiw, Chelsea fans aren't even that bothered about CL football next season, we're a lot more focused on building the team up and finding a bit more balance. The Europa League would probably be more beneficial anyway, will give us a chance to try out new players, get them some experience. The goal is to be challenging in the season after next. Lacking consistency, but still humbled Liverpool at the weekend, we just need to find the right balance. A work in progress.

Chelsea aren’t a team as such and show no signs of improvement - one inconsistent right winger and motley set of useless defenders

The keeper is a nightmare and no goalscorer

The saving grace is the midfield three who cost around a third of a £Billion !!

Don't be ridiculous, we beat Liverpool 3-1 on Sunday with ease, are 5th in the league and still have a chance of finishing 2nd (we won't but it's still a chance). We were the last English team to win the CL too, not even that long ago. Saying Chelsea aren't a team is just a massive cope from you. It's sad.

If you wanna talk about teams who aren't "teams" go look at your Spurs team this season :joker:

[Father Chris Mouse]

Also, you say we've got no strikers, yet before last night, you rated Jackson. You are changing all your views on players now, and even more shockingly, for you, you're now a NEWCASTLE fan, but because you're "already over it".

Yeah, ok Zizu.

Jackson has potential nothing more - inconsistency


You were slagging home off 6 months ago and I defended him ..he acted went on a decent scoring streak but things fell apart when Palmer turned into a normal player

Im never gonna let you live down your incredibly childish support of Newcastle over Chelsea now, especially after your pure hatred for them over the years, every single week. Even others have come in asking what you have against Newcastle, and yet here you are supporting them now. What a joke.

I didn't slag him off, i just said i didn't rate him all that much. Palmer just having a bit of a drought, same as Salah atm, it happens. He was phenomenal against Liverpool on Sunday, he'll get back into the groove, he is far from a normal player.

[Zizu]

If you are gonna support a roughneck Inter team over a football playing Barca .

Then I am perfectly within my rights in hoping Newcastle kick your guys from pillar to post ( and back again) on Sunday





Then I will go back to hating them


Incidentally How come you can be childish bit no one else can

LOL

You're making yourself look like such a nob. I don't care what you think, or how many teams you support, all you do is cry and moan about Newcastle every single week, and now you support them. You've really shown yourself up. Say what you like about me, call me what you like, cry about Inter beating Barca, means nothing. But you supporting Newcastle now just shows how petty and childish you can be.

You say you HATE brutal teams (yet like Spurs which ish weird), you say you want the flare players protected against brutes like Newcastle, but now you're wishing them to smash Chelsea players all over the place, just to spite me being happy Inter beat your cry baby, spitting, bitch team Barcelona. What a wanker.

[Father Chris Mouse]

LOL

You don't see the irony in this post? You call me childish, yet just to spite me, you'll be cheering Newcastle on at the weekend, a team that you passionately hate. Wow. Your self awareness is nil.

[Zizu]

Yawn

Oh and remember you are the one who started dissing my beloved Barca

All this other stuff is a bit of fun [emoji2956]

Sooooo Partey back which massively improves Arsenal though they may still be toothless against a decent defence .


How will Arsenal cope with PSG’s front 3 or 4 ??

[Zizu]

Interesting

[Zizu]

Wow

No Dembele !!

That should inspire Arsenal ???

[Zizu]

You can tell after just 90 seconds that this will be a great game !

[Zizu]

What a missed chance from Rice with 2 minutes on the clock

[Zizu]

Amazing save !!


Arsenal should be two up after just 4 minutes

[Zizu]

6 minutes of total dominance by Arsenal

[Zizu]

7 minutes and another amazing save to stop a fabulous shot from Odegard !

Could easily be 3:0 to Arsenal !!

PSG keeper has hurt himself making the save UNLESS he was pretending to throw Arsenal out of their rhythm ?

[Zizu]

Football is a crazy game


PSG in form and rested TEN players at the weekend wheras Arsenal with two defeats and played this team against Bournemouth and LOST !!


One team rested playing at home cant get a kick - 15 minutes of Arsenal dominance

[Zizu]

PSG hit the post in their first attack after 16 minutes !!

[Zizu]

Saliba with another stupid mistake !
That’s the third game in a row he’s switched off

How bizarre

[Zizu]

Arsenal still totally dominant yet Arteta has all the subs warming up on the sidelines


???

[Zizu]

1:0

PSG

27 minutes

I bet Arsenal have had 90% possession

[Zizu]

Soooo when and why did footballers start covering their mouths when talking to each other ?

Even managers do it talking to assistants !!

I haven’t noticed it in any other walk of life

[Zizu]

Partey having a very good game thus far

[Zizu]

This would have been a great finale

[Father Chris Mouse]

This would have been a great finale

Inter/Barca was one of the best semi final ties of European football ever. PSG have pissed it against Arsenal. Last nights game would have made a MUCH better final.

PSG have done enough to go through to the final



Arsenal's Calafiore then, arguing with the ref :joker: unnecessary waste of time if you're hunting for 2 more goals, i'd bench him if i were arteta for the upcoming PL game

[Zizu]

Wow

Yeah haha, Maresca rates him quite highly.

[Father Chris Mouse]

Beyond any doubt its a Utd/Spurs final, and Chelsea in the Con final, only tie left to decide is who will Chelsea play in the final, Fiorentia or Betis, currently 3-3 agg in that game, 20 mins left. Both will be a tricky opponent for Chelsea

[Candy Annie Cane]

Utd only turned up when Amad and Mount came on

Came back from 1-0 down, Spurs/Utd is gonna be such an entertaining final i reckon.

I want Mount to be a success at ManU

He can’t be that bad after winning player of the year TWICE

[Zizu]

Wow


Excellent timing

He just scored from 35 yards with his weaker left foot !!

[Zizu]

Heard on the grapevine that the Saudi people have offered Bruno Fernandes a deal worth £1 MILLION per WEEK !!


At 32 that may just appeal to him ??

That is life changing money

[Candy Annie Cane]

Wow


Excellent timing

Him and Amad coming on turned the game around. He was amazing

Well he can choose his poison so to speak

He ain’t gonna go to ManC , ManU , Chelsea or Spurs .. which leaves Liverpool or Arsenal in the UK ..

Unlikely to go to Real Madrid or PSG

Don’t think Barca have any funds ( hence why we are playing 6 or 7 youngsters every game )

Maybe Bayern Munich ?

[Father Chris Mouse]

Silly to say he wont go to City or Chelsea considering how much both teams would pay him.

He’s nearly 26 so he ain’t gonna take a punt on club who maybe sacking their manager soon .

Plus even with the midfield 3 and Palmer that’s only 5 good players

The keeper and the keystone cops in defence are a liability

Chelsea's defence isn't as bad as you think. Only Liverpool and Arsenal have conceded fewer goals than Chelsea this season.

That’s mainly down to the protection offered by your excellent midfield three - especially Caceido .

If Liverpool aren't in serious trouble, by your logic that means Arsenal finish 2nd with Isak next season, what would be the point?

It means there will be a two horse race with the rest trying to keep up

Liverpool are supposedly targeting two top strikers ( presumably Isak is one option and they will get at least one of them

Oooh how we have been missing Lewandowski ..

Barca score ….


I am expecting it to be ruled out for one

reason or another but fingers crossed ..

Goal stands !!

1:2 - Real Madrid still lead

[Zizu]

Barca have missed about 8 decent chances in front of goal .. we are the Spanish Arsenal without a CF

[Zizu]

Yamal getting getting kicked from pillar to post as usual … you would expect the officials to give him some protection given he’s only just 17 years old

[Parmy]

Forrest score to go 5th as it stands.
