Messi to the rescue!!!!!

Lescott has been comically poor from the first minute.

Mehhhhhh... That was expected.

i totally overlooked Lescott when I said Milner was the least skilled. lol

The officiating in this match has been quite poor, to say the least.

TheAdmiral · Post #986 » by **TheAdmiral** » Wed Mar 12, 2014 9:21 pm

at this awful referee.

I dont want to see this ref in europe again

Don't see the penalty.
Need a replay.

Yeah its technically a penalty. grazed his boot. They owe us a penalty for Messi too so I'm ok with it Ref hasn't been that good.

i don't see a penalty either but announcers adamant about it

TheAdmiral · Post #991 » by **TheAdmiral** » Wed Mar 12, 2014 9:23 pm

Definitely a penalty.

If people thought Barca should have been given one in the first half, then this is a no-brainer as well.

MaliBrah · Post #992 » by **MaliBrah** » Wed Mar 12, 2014 9:27 pm

that looked like a no brainer decision to me. This ref is awful , has killed both teams. He can't be put in place of another CL game.

Not sure why Pellegrini's not wearing his hoodie

Well theres there morale goal. Looks like offside.

Post #995 » by **magik9113** » Wed Mar 12, 2014 9:33 pm

I think thats offisde 100%. Lescott was in offside position, barely one yard away from Valdez

EArl · Post #996 » by **EArl** » Wed Mar 12, 2014 9:35 pm

Take that. Dani Alves!!!

On to the Quarter Finals!!!

TheAdmiral · Post #997 » by **TheAdmiral** » Wed Mar 12, 2014 9:36 pm

Kompany wasn't offside, but Lescott blocking Valdes' sight (in that position) should have resulted in an offside call.

The ref in the Paris Leverkusen game was horrible as well.

It is at a point where I cant even take the competition serious anymore because everygame one team gets screwed by the refs.

Kompany talks quadruples. Gets eliminated from two competitions in 5 days.

same. it is every time they do a British team vs non-British team

No matter the scoreline or the way a team played English clubs will always be described as "brave" and "heroic." Lol.

Clive T said, "job half done" yesterday after 45 minutes. Umm no, Arsenal was still down 2-0 aggregate and only 45 mins to turn the tie lol.
