Forest have been good this season, no doubt they'll blow it in the playoffs



i think they'll go up

[Sir David Gray]

Just a pity Villarreal winning the title won't prevent Celtic getting to the Champions League group stages anymore.

[Hibby70]

Hope Lee Wallace is ok after the pitch invasion

[Lago]

i think they'll go up
Hope so

i think they'll go up

Hope so, be good to see them back up. Play offs are tough though

[Booked4Being-Ugly]

Yeah, I never saw the Forrest fans pile on the pitch to save their players getting assaulted.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Anyone else watch Mane and think at times he's brilliant and other times during a game he looks like a sunday league player with the touch of an elephant, cross in the 1st half came over everyone in the box and Mane just didn't anticipate it coming near him and he miskicked it.

That's exactly what I mean, took that goal so well but in the 1st half he was really poor, I think the great stuff overshadows the occasional bad stuff :greengrin

Or he just encouraged them and changed things? We desperately need to move away from the idea that having a right go at someone achieves anything

Yes having a right go at them doesn't necessarily mean shouting at them but being honest with them and telling them in no uncertain manner what their fans expect from them as players.

I don't think any city team has been Liverpool this season.

Were comfortably the best team for large parts of the recent home game. KDB, Ederson, Dias, Rodri, Laporte, Walker and Mahrez didn’t start the semi final.

I think City will win the league even with one or two injuries but they will need a fully fit side to win the final if they get there.

Nah, 2-2, 2-2, 2-3.

How does that sit with Klopps touchlline antics he is yelling like an idiot every game. Of course he needs to be able to stay calm and make changes when required however to suggest he wouldn't have used harsher words on occasion is a little fanciful given what we see every week.

Because he's a tactical genius first. Not some roaster who yells. Good managers win matches, not the loudest ones.

Good chance he yells a lot on the touchline to be heard over 50k fans.

He is demented on the touch line. He will have all sides as a coach at that level including being harsh when he needs to be. Must be brilliant to play for.

Exactly, and Pep can be very angry on the touchline too. Of course they know their stuff tactically, but to say they are not capable of giving their players a rocket with both barrels is just daft, they both do it and do it well.

I posted that Klopp probably had a right go at them at HT, nowhere in my post did I say shout/yell etc, you can have a go at players who are underperforming with shouting, it's called home truths and reminding them who they play for. They were certainly fired up more in the 2nd half.

Great result for Edinburg City.Hard to see Dumbarton pulling that result back.

If City can deal with Forfar or Annan in the final wil get them up to League One.

Would be what they deserve as they are a well run club.

If Bonnyrigg can dispose of Cowdenbeath in their play off that would make things even better.

I saw it completely differently to be honest. I thought Liverpool were very physical in the first half (ref was lenient and out of his depth) and basically caused the star man Moreno to get injured. Why Emery kept him on for the second half and they introduction of Diaz changed the game. Also a stonewall penalty completely ignored. It didn’t even go to VAR which I find curious.

Did you see Pep the other week when Marez failed to score when he should have squared it to the unmarked player in the middle, he shouted, yelled and nearly jumped out of his top and trousers giving him one hell of a rollicking for being so selfish.

Home truths you would probably call it, me it was a bollocking even bullying as some have said.

Klopp and Pep have extremely high standards and expect their high earning world class players to play to those standards and when they don't they'll bollock them like you just said.

They’ll not be desperate to play Madrid. What a team they’ve been in the Champions League this season.

Reckon they’d have fancied themselves more against City.

[QUOTE=Aldo;6948112]That was a foul. If that had been a RM player the ref would give it! /QUOTE]

He's brought it on himself, though. Nae sympathy. He's a diving cheat and, rightly imo will have a reputation for being a diver. I wouldn't have given it either. Watch him. He looks to hit the deck every time. Went down like a cheap whore.

So Man City are still the best team in the world then?

[cabbageandribs1875]

fair guttin for those man city players/fans, hopefully a 14th win for RM

[JimBHibees]

😂😂😂😂😂😂 That’s why I always refer to City as European minnows, best team in the world aye? One foot in the final and they have failed again. A final with two European giants and not a minnow in sight. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Well said Scouse spot on. Bottlers

No chance.

We are all Madrid.

[Paulie Walnuts]

Has Guardiola ever won anything when he didn't clearly have the best individuals? He can spot talent and coach individuals, but I have doubts about his ability to manage a team when the opponents are of comparable ability.

He’s won 31 trophies as a manager. I’m not quite sure it can just be put down to always having the best individuals.

Never in a million years. He gets away with it in England every week. Glad the ref seen him for what he is. A little cheat.

Man City bottlers.....owners won't be happy....

I prefer Liverpool but I appreciate them both as fantastic football teams

I’m no city fan but that ref was so bad it makes me question what his game was? Almost Scottish ref levels of terrible.

They are embarrassing. Every foreign player is a diver and a cheat unless he plays for an English club. And no English player would ever cheat.
And you think the Spanish commentators are totally neutral, come on.

Yes they are a top team but bottled it tonight.

Liverpool are better.

[Hibernia&Alba]

Unbelievable, Jeff!

Truly unbelievable. It will take a long time for that to sink in. There is no excuse for losing a two goal lead when going into the final minute, but that is beyond cruel.

Will City be able to keep their heads for the title run-in? They will be knocked for six now. Even I feel for them.

if Liverpool go top on Saturday, City will be feeling the strain immensely.

Aye, Liverpool will smell blood now. Klopp will be grinning away, his new teeth sparkling in the Merseyside night.

[Ronniekirk]

Finish. But superb run and pass from Silva whose been excellent this evening!

Game still not over for me given it is RM they are playing and a player called Benzema

Has he ever won something a trophy when there was another team in the competition with clearly better individuals?

I'm not saying he's no good, but Bayern were European champions when he took over, but didn't win again till he left, and Manchester City with all their resources are out again. His two Champions League wins with Barcelona were with a team that was clearly the most talented around.

He was certainly lucky that he inherited a Barca team which, IMHO, is the best ever club side - certainly the best I've seen. However, he is a great manager and winning the Champions League is very tough. They should have won tonight; those are the very fine margins that can decide things at the elite level. You can't blame Pep for City conceding two goals right at the end. The players panicked.

Another point, mate. How many chances did City waste in the first leg, and what about those two Grealish chances tonight? Pep can do nothing about that. I would put the responsibility on the players for this. Pep can't be on the pitch to take those great chances and can't do the defending when two goals up in the last minute.

Glory hunters all around have the final they want. Supporting Liverpool or real if not from there, is like Supporting the old firm from Edinburgh. Wanted villarreal but ach well.

Hope the final is as good as the semis

[MWHIBBIES]

Love when city bottle it. 2 big teams in the final while the sportswashing front are gone.

[Since452]

Rarely watch any champions league games these days but glad it's not two teams from the same country in the final. Good luck Real Madrid.

The glory hunters who support city never got the final they wanted so don’t really get your point.

Agree to an extent taking off De Bruyne and Mahrez didn't look a great move going into extra time and especially when they needed a goal.

Really hope the Huns go out tonight. Don't want any Scottish Cup final distractions.

[mjhibby]

Whichever way you look at it citeh bottled it again on the big stage. They should have had the game out of sight but don't have a top class centre half to shout them over the line. I don't think it will stop them winning the league and I'm sure klopp knows winning the champions league is the big one. Klopp to me is the closest thing to fergie and cloughie. Pep not quite at that level. IMHO.

They will win that. Its more them getting millions from the champions league and them and celtic making the gap to the rest of us even bigger.

I think they will win it but can’t imagine any European final against Madrid being comfortable, it’s going to be one hell of a tough game in my opinion.

I think the semi (2nd leg) proved that Liverpool can be vulnerable - esp at the full back position so its deffo not a gimme.

I do think that Liverpool have a far better central defence than City though and couldnt see you losing those two last minute headers as they did last night.

Two excellent teams, both of whom have amazing attacking options and decent subs. I suspect and hope it will be one of the better European Cup finals.

I'm no city fans but Dias and Laporte are brilliant centre backs. Both would get into Reals side ahead of Militao.

Not seen much of Militao but thought he was different class last night. Thought Camavinga was the best player while he was on the park also.

Don't think they willl relatively comfortable win for Leipzig though playing on Monday past wasn't ideal preparation

I watched a lot of Camavinga in ligue 1 and he dominated every game I saw, I'm not sure how much time he's getting for Real but he's a quality player. Can do everything in midfield.

It might have been that they just lost to two bits of genius from the sub, and a penalty from probably the best player in the world.

Sometimes teams get beat, it does not have to be they bottled it every time.

The manner of the defeat last night was absolutely bottling it, they were literally a handful of minutes away from it. To lose one, let alone two goals of a lead is unforgivable.

And absolutely hilarious.

Conceded two goals at stoppage time.

You can excuse one and write that off as a goal out of nothing. Two is a different matter.

Is that bottled it though ? Or just switching off at a critical moment - and then a goal charges a game and changed the whole momentum ..the second was hard to defend ..unless you stopped the cross

I watched 2 evenly matched teams play out a gripping game of football, never at any time during or after did i think either side bottled it.
