The local lids must be made up that he’s brought this one up now - even I’d have thought you’d want to let it go - but no, when everyone else is on about preseason and looking forward the Unsuccessful & Hypocrtical One takes us back to that magical evening in Kiev to remind the world that somehow they were unlucky. Forget the fact they were out passed, outplayed, embarrassed if the truth were ever to be told and rarely strung three passes together in Madrid’s half, they were somehow cheated if I am to understand their view of Klopps’ Kiev Carnival. Self deluded nobs, every one of them but thanks for bringing up one of the most enjoyable weekends of my year. I know we were bad last year but good as gold you lot came along at the right time to cheer me up that night.
A lack of humility to forget the favourable offside goals against City, the unbelievable offside decision v Roma and probable red card, the handball on the line not given, but somehow the fact Ramos tangled with their biggest threat that saw him injured somehow manifests itself two months later when everyone has forgotten that there were two teams in that final. Hope he keeps sharing how unlucky his team are.....those plucky little underachievers with world record defender in toe, plus goalkeeper now and football arm of the famous Red Sox baseball team are really up against the odds this year..
If he keeps playing that card to divert attention from his early crash bang wallop, if it doesn’t work, bleat about something else style of football, he may not be the man to revive the fortunes of the 1990 Division One League Champions. Personally, I think they are only one or two away from it being their year again this year. There again, I’ve heard that every year since I was in primary school but still gets rolled out every summer. But this time, it will be, because......God Only Knows
