Today’s Football 2020/21 Season

If you were City, which of these teams would you rather face in a final?

I think they'd rather play Madrid

Chelsea will choke the life out of them whilst Madrid will actually try and play them

 

[DanB90]

Thing is finals are are often a let down anyway, as far as entertainment go

Karius in tears was pretty good viewing imho.

 

[TheBigIguana]

After the back to back Titles with two different clubs where he was a key factor

He wasn't better than Messi or Ronaldo in either of those years for me.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

He wasn't better than Messi or Ronaldo in either of those years for me.

I think he was far more important to both Leicester and Chelsea than they were to their respective teams

His defensive performance was better than their attacking performances, attacking just carries more weight (Wrongly IMO)

 

[Goat]

He's one of the Premier League's best players in the past 5 years. Easy

Nar, he went on holiday after winning the World Cup.

 

[Martin Alvito]

If Chelsea win then I fully expect the Final to either end 1-0 or 0-0 with penalties

If Chelsea coughs up an early goal, sooner or later they'll have to chase it. I would also expect Pep to have concluded that he's only cracking that defense by getting after it early.

Kante is so bloody good

Crime of the century that he never won a Ballon D'Or

Flat out won a World Cup final and carried his team to it. Modric got that Ballon d'Or by playing for a better club team, and also by being really good.

Can't agree with that either on Messi, Ronaldo yes, Madrid have loads of talent as evidenced by being in this match today.

Christ a Chelsea vs City final is unappealing

Attacking counts more than Defending when they work this out I feel

I'd like to see how often defenders and keepers win it in relation to attackers

Kante was an absolute beast in the CDM position, but he didn't have the highlight reel goals that Messi and Ronaldo did

You take Messi and Ronaldo out of their respective teams and they still challenge or even win

You take Kante out of that Leicester team and there's no Title, and you could argue that Chelsea really struggle to do it without him too

 

[longers]

I don't remember it because that didn't happen

Yes ive got it confused with the season prior to this. They didn't look anything like a potential champs league finalist when we beat them 1-0 back in December though

 

[Kantareller]

Nar, he went on holiday after winning the World Cup.

Think Sarri and Lampard used him wrong. With Sarri didn't he use him as a no. 10?

 

[Goat]

Ramos is King.

Ah yes that makes more sense.

They were bad at Goodison this year but so were we.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Yes ive got it confused with the season prior to this. They didn't look anything like a potential champs league finalist when we beat them 1-0 back in December though

They've always tended to be a traditionally good cup team

They certainly were in the 90's when I was growing up

Oh for sure he was used wrong or just dropped, doesn't mean he didn't go missing for 2 years.
