You can't be serious. Outstanding in what? He was invisible. Did absolutely nothing for a player of his calibre.


I am serious. He was probably their best player. Constantly on the ball and weaving through the Real outer defence. He faded badly in the second half mind you. As did they all.

Many would argue any team other than Bayern, Real, Barca or Atleti getting to the UCL final is, in itself an overachievement.

Disagree, I think Juve's squad is on the same level as at the very least Atletico and Barca (who have been a disaster defensively all season). Bayern and Real might be a level above but I disagree that they over-achieved this season. They have a great squad, including the best defensive line in the competition imo

Constantly on the ball doing nothing. For someone who's arguably Juve's best player, Dybala's performance was completely lackluster, so much so in fact that he was subbed.

Him, Pjanic and Higuain, the three that were supposed to make the difference, were invisible. Compare that to Modric, Isco and Ronaldo's performances, and you get the picture.

Juve's best performer was by far and large Mandzukic.

Juve were by far the better side in the first half. Had far more of the ball and did more with it. Not sure how you rated any of those three as better than Dybala but then it's all about opinions and we've more pressing issues to deal with than who was better last night.

From the highlights it looked like Juve had the better chances in the 1st half and then Real completely turned the tables on them in the 2nd

So that's probably the reason for the differing perspectives

Far better side? I'd say in the first half they were on equal terms. Obviously in the second half Madrid showed what they're really made of and Juve just crumbled altogether. Ronaldo and Modric were the best players of the game, Isco was great as well. Can't see how you can even compare Dybala's performance to theirs.

Real became UCL Real in the second half while Juve had a meltdown. Equally conceding two deflected goals knocked them out.

And yet remains unpopular with supporters. He's had an astonishing debut season in management, arguably the greatest ever for a rookie, and yet he still isn't the popular choice with fans.

Honestly, what more could the Madrid fans want FFS? Best team in the world, play great football and they get the results as well.

They must be getting board of winning, that's why they try to find little things to nit-pick and complain about

PSG have officially signed Neymar.

I disapprove of the digures being circulated as you can build a whole team with such numbers; take Milan as a perfect example. Nevertheless its done and dusted; Neymar is a PSG player.

They keep thinking he's a fluke. I guess a team like Madrid where players are such great individuals - you don't really need a massive tactical supercomputer of a coach to have them winning, you need a guy who's got the dressing room.

But hey this is Madrid. They booed their own player when he won a Ballon d'Or. Their own player!!! WTF. Great club, sh!t fans.

Both of the Spanish duo suffer dreadful fans.
