Incidentally, we still havnt played a game since 1st Feb. Liam Mogan 2 Posted 23/06/2025 at 20:21:03 I see Allan is in the midfield for Botofogo. Thought he'd retired. Michael Kenrick 3 Posted 23/06/2025 at 21:59:25 Bit bigger crowd in Seattle for the PSG game — but still not full. 50,000 or so. Michael Kenrick 4 Posted 24/06/2025 at 22:02:35 Bayern just can't score against Benfica.Sounds a lot like our Rossi on comms. In another stadium less than half-full. Christy Ring 5 Posted 25/06/2025 at 17:17:41 A lot of discrimination in the Club World Cup: European teams received £28M for turning up South American teams £11M African, Mexican, US £7MChelsea have already got their money back for Delap. If Man City or Chelsea win it, they'll win over £112m — a big help with transfers. Dale Self 6 Posted 26/06/2025 at 02:22:22 What a fantastically awkward competition. Dumfries admits Inter players discussed Inzhagi exit rumours before PSG destroyed them in the final. Inzhaghi then cites a lack of energy to continue at the club and moves to Al-Hilal. Both are invited guests of Gianni to this sad spectacle. Michael Kenrick 7 Posted 26/06/2025 at 09:01:02 I suppose that it's thrown up a couple of surprises as the final group games play out: Inter Miami getting through ahead of Porto in Group AAtletico losing out to Botafogo in a three-way tie in Group BBoca Juniors without a win, even against Auckland City in Group CMonterrey edging River Plate in Group EAl Hilal still with a chance in Group H?Hard to generate any enthusiasm really… Bring on the tense drama of the knockout stages in the Round of 16!!! Michael Kenrick 8 Posted 26/06/2025 at 20:17:03 Good goal from Doku for Man City against Juve.But daft 'playing out from the back' sees them level again 2 minutes later. Liam Mogan 9 Posted 26/06/2025 at 20:28:29 Great finishing for the OG 2-1 City Michael Kenrick 10 Posted 26/06/2025 at 20:30:10 That was genius. Brilliant pass. All alone in front of goal, only the keeper to beat. What a finish! Liam Mogan 11 Posted 26/06/2025 at 20:46:06 What the hell is that weather! Cripes! Danny O'Neill 12 Posted 26/06/2025 at 20:55:15 City in control, but not riveting stuff.Florida Liam. Four seasons in one day. Starts off clear blue skies. Clouds start gathering after midday. Storm and horrendous downpour in the afternoon. Back to clear skies in the evening. Repeat. Michael Kenrick 13 Posted 26/06/2025 at 20:57:42 Crowd seems better… but stadium still not full. Liam Mogan 14 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:02:18 Just read an article on the BBC which says Brazil is going wild for this Club World Cup. All 4 teams are through and apparently their teams have been working to get in best shape for it.Conor Coady just come on at HT with his analysis. Liked him as a leader, pity he was so slow. Danny O'Neill 15 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:08:01 Liam, I liked Coady. Yes, he lacked pace, but made up for it in other aspects of his game. To go vernacular, a proper "arl arse". Danny O'Neill 16 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:11:08 Bad timing / miss by Haaland or too much on the drilled cross? Liam Mogan 17 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:16:52 Erling soon made up for it Danny! Michael Kenrick 18 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:17:29 Offside surely?No, he was behind the ball. Liam Mogan 19 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:21:40 It's difficult to say if City are much improved or Juve are just not very good?Juve look a pale imitation of some of their previous teams. Danny O'Neill 20 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:26:14 Yes, good running off the ball for the tap in Liam. Michael Kenrick 21 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:27:29 My screens are on the fritz so I'm jacking it in for the night.Ciao! Dave Abrahams 22 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:32:54 How did Rodri play while he was on the field? Liam Mogan 23 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:36:06 Played well Dave. Makes a massive difference to them.I forgot how big he was. He's huge. Just dominates the middle of the park. Dave Abrahams 24 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:39:56 Liam (23) Thanks. I think he was well missed by Man City last season. He makes a big difference to how they operate. Liam Mogan 25 Posted 26/06/2025 at 21:41:16 City are destroying them. 5-1 now. Juve look to have given up.Yes, Rodri is a fantastic player, Dave. Jay Harris 26 Posted 27/06/2025 at 04:03:04 Just down the road from me but I can't get interested in going to a game. I am catching it on TV though because I can record and play later. I think all the teams are going through the motions after a tough domestic season but some players will stand out in any company.Rodri is an outstanding player who does the job of 2 men and is the link for most of City's build-up play.Doku is also exceptional. City going through the gears looking good now they seem to have been excused their 115 charges.
