Howmanheyman 33877 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 We couldn't do a Leicester. Too much weight of decades of hopes to carry. I'm still fucking scarred by 95. Leicester didn't have that worry. We'd have collectively turned into wrecks by February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 31217 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Still. It's a great example of how belief and teamwork mixed with a few match winners can take you to extraordinary places. When you look at the lack of heart and belief among our squad you wonder and dream that if we had that same attitude whether we could now be breathing in the dizzy heights of mid table mediocrity.

McFaul 35 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Aye. Just like Tom Hanks had a £500 bet on them. Bet slip or GTFO. Tom Wanks more like. I thought it was £100 that was mentioned but even that would be half a million quid. Nee chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how many Leicester players were giving interviews in the last year or so of wanting to move on to a CL club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McFaul 35 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Quoted for when Shakhtar and Liverpool get through tonight Would be typical of me that. Surely Sevilla are guaranteed to get through and the worlds luckiest club will never run out of luck, irrespective how shit they play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Liverpool are at home this time and only have a 1 goal deficit to turn over, if they show up then they can absolutely wallop Villareal. The other game is 2-2, a 1-0 there isn't beyond Shakhtar, they've a lot of quality and experience in europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 7492 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) Even still, Spain is killing it currently. There's a common perception that there are only two strong teams in Spain with a huge gulf, Atletico are singularly breaking that perception but even going beyond them there's a lot more depth in la liga than many realise. They're a lot more economical with their spending, the English league is I think at its weakest point in a long long time which is made even worse by the average wage bills which are the highest of all the leagues.

StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 The Spanish and European teams never make excuses either, they play there strongest teams weekends and midweek and on the other hand you have our lot of clubs making excuses for being tired, basically throwing in the towel before a balls been kicked. It annoys me how our clubs spend all season qualifying for Europe to then make excuses to get knocked out, only to then qualify for it again next season and repeat excuses.

essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Spanish teams conserve their energy by letting the ball do the work.Before Rafa came,we were fucked during most games by chasing shadows and trying to retrieve the ball after bad first touches.

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 There are a lot more foreign mercenaries in English football than most other countries, there has been for a while now which explains the distinct lack of success in European competition.

Doesn't really make much sense as foreign players (non-British) players are winning European titles abroad but they're not winning them here? Imo it's the failure is okay attitude over here and the pursuit of averageness in the English game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
