I have a real soft spot for Olympic Marseilles
I think there's something that people tend to have affection for teams that were big when you first got into football
back when I was a young idiot, they had JPP and went quite well in Europe
Salzberg can **** off though
Buffon says there should never be pens called in the last minute of a big game.
Good old Gab Marcotti went in the way back machine to ask where Buffon's protests were when Australia got pinged in the last minute in 2006.
cant believe anyone still remembers that except Australians.
Impressive.

I was in England at the time and quite a big deal was made about some English dj on Radio 1 predicting Italy winning by a last minute penalties to get through games they didn't deserve to win
most people hate them the way we do, not always from experience though
Bayern v Real
Liverpool v Roma
Bayern Vs Real
Liverpool Vs Roma

the luck of the draw funny how both Europa and Champions.. 1 big match vs 1 even matchup

Just shows if Barca got through they would have been kept apart from Real.
Well they did a good job of disguising it by having to play most of the match a man down.
Everyone in the house that day could tell that even with an extra man Aussies were never gonna score
Our death was merciful (I'll be ****ed if I was sitting through extra time). It was time for us ( the team and the fans) to leave Germany. We'd had enough.
Here comes Frodo quack talk of the day.
I'd rather face Athletico over 2 legs than in the final.
We need to do a big job at home and get at least 2-0 up. Otherwise it will be tough to win in Spain. We have the weapons to win, mostly Elneny the Egyptian god, just need to make sure we play at full intensity for at least 180 mins.
I think Marseille will do RB Salzburg over 2 legs.
Love it

i honestly believe that 'Europa League Cup talk Frodo' is the best person on the foz.
Don't know how genuine but the internetz has stories of Roma selling tickets to the Liverpool game BEFORE the draw was made.
Sounds legit
Discrepancies involving Italian teams is simply unfathomable

Just trying to keep you entertained until the membah returns.
Absolutely loving watching Buffon tarnish the end of his career. He just doubled down on his comments in the media. Idiot.
Basically he is happy for his fans to send death threats to Oliver's wife and children, which he has been made aware of, just because he feels that the referee should have cared more about the drama than the rules.
No liverpool kids up this morning??
Did really well and then did not so well.
I got up at 6 something to a failed alarm n 5-0.
Maybe I shoula stayed unwoke
Mo will get em home. Just leave the talisman on longer Jurgie....
Conceded 2 late goals gives Roma just a sniff. However they're going to have to score 4+, I just cant see Roma keeping a clean sheet.
I'm definitely not going to say that Liverpool couldn't score anywhere in the world right now, however Roma have been amazing at home this year in the UCL.
Normally a 5-2 lead would be unassailable in a UCL semi final but the return game could still be a cracker of a game. Roma did start really well this morning and almost led through that thunderous shot from Kolarov.
Roma will change to a back 4 in Rome you would think. Jesus and Fazio needed more help nearby to deal with that front line. Liverpool running diagonally at that back 3 was scary to watch.
