Zatman Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 There really should be an amnisty for player suspensions when the Champions League reaches the Semi final stage. Suspensions should only become part of the game where they're needed to discourage inappropriate behaviour. agree should only be banned from final if get a red card in semi final (I'm aware how the away goals rule works, but I seem to remember some rule whereby if the game was tied at 90 minutes, then extra time was played before the way goals rule came into effect). that only applied to Carling Cup for some strange reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 25, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted April 25, 2012 Especially when yellows are so easy to pick up these days. You can basically miss the final because of a couple of accidents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 25, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted April 25, 2012 Did anyone cringe last night when geoff Shreeves broke the news to Ivanovic that he was missing the final? He looked absolutely gutted. I can only assume Shreeves is spending today stealing sweets off children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Why was he booked and Drogba wasnt for the penalty? Shreeves is a massive word removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Messi - 8 games against Chelsea, 0 goals. (even had it the easy way - penalty but still can't score) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only assume Shreeves is spending today stealing sweets off children. I thought that was amazing. Cashley didn't know where to look and Ivanovic looked like he was about to burst into tears.

Voinjama Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Except against Arsenal he has struggled against English teams in general Didnt he score against Manchester United in the champions league final in 2009 and 2011. Manchester United are an English side arent they? And remember he has only played against Manchester united 3 times. 2 goals in 3 games. So he does well against Arsenal and Manchester United.

wiggyrichard Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Glenn Hoddle - "Dont get me wrong...Chelsea were brilliant, but Barca really need to find another way of playing!" Yeah, because you would take them to another level and put Madrid to the sword...you complete tool!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eames Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 It did look like they ran out of ideas though. The problem is the they are basically a team of nippy skillful midgets and the best way to put a stop to that is bully them. Get everyone behind the ball and then watch them pass it sideways infront of you. The also failed to nick any chances when they were laid out for them on a plate.

kurtsimonw Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 agree should only be banned from final if get a red card in semi final Yeah I agree with that. It's a bit unfair to miss a Final like that. He's missing it for arguing a debatable penalty and Meireles missing it because of a dive.. sickening for them really. Barca really did seem to lack any good chances after the penalty miss. I remember Cuenca had an effort from inside the box, otherwise it all seemed a bit nothing.
