    Would probably kms (or less dramatically, stop watching sports) if Madrid was my team's biggest rivals. Pool and City did this s*** like once each and I'm still shook.

    Let's be honest

    It started with Ancelotti first spell, Mou got close too

    Before that they were known to always find a way to f*** it up

    What? Did you start watching football yesterday? They have 14 CL titles. The next closest side has half of that number.

    Started watching in the 2000's

    Pretty sure there's a span in the 2000's where they couldn't get past the R16

    Obv every1 knows the history but there was a long time with no CL trophy

    We do this every 2 years

    The cycle continues

    why did the linesmen raise his flag tho? should lose his job over that imo, or at least be pulled down to lower league and referee our europa conference league fixtures instead of UCL semifinals.

    Tuchel for me would probably be quite boring football

    Probably overperform

    But it would crumble, unless INEOS are what they say they are.

    Tuchel despised Chelsea's transfer business, left Mainz because he couldn't rebuild etc - he's got a clear history of not getting on with the leadership above him, and if there's a terrible leadership to hate - it's United.

    He's been done badly wrong, like not being backed after his team bus got bombed at Dortmund, and Chelsea's new US owners getting rid after he massively overperformed during the spending blocks etc

    Very good manager, very successful, but I don't see him fitting at United.

    He’s been done badly wrong, or he’s just an a****** who can’t get along with anybody for longer than a year. I think it’s the latter

    Yeah but like 7 of those are from the Stone Age lol. They didn’t win s*** for decades. Their record over the last 10 years is insane tho

    I’m sorry but this guy can barely play good football with this Bayern squad, imagine him trying to do anything with our players

    … and where do you think Milan’s and Liverpools are from? The two closest rivals in titles? Lmao

    I get that they’ve revived massively recently but they are the club in the CL. They always have been.

    Oh yeah no I agree completely. It’s just that it’s insane that like most of their titles have come from the last ten years and first ten years of the CL. These mfers on track to win 6 out of the last 10 lol

    I can already see Ronaldo absolutely fuming that he’s not gonna be the record CL holder anymore if Real win, cus of Modric and Kroos

    I get it about Real tho. Their stretch from 2002 to 2013/14 was underwhelming both domestically and in Europe when you consider what they spent.

    Obviously their overwhelming success in the last decade has rehabilitated their image, but there was a time where the curse of La Decima was real.

    No one talks about how badly the Galacticos project failed, especially with all the REALLY questionable coaching hires despite all the frivolous transfer fees

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borussia_Dortmund_team_bus_bombing

    The CEO allowed the game to be rescheduled the next day

    Tuchel was publicly furious, which is quite fair lol

    Apparently it was the beginning of why he left Dortmund

    Damn this entire case crazy man. The guy who planted the bomb bought derivatives to go short on Dortmund stock cus he thought that if he’d kill a chunk of the team the stock would tank, and he’d get rich lol

    Yeah it's mental, I can't believe they actually played

    Don't get me wrong Tuchel is a d***head but he's definitely not always the one in the wrong lol

    Not really the full truth. Uefa rescheduled because they had decided play or forfeit.

    Tuchel claims they weren't consulted, while the CEO says they were.

    UEFA are f***ing morons

    Tuchel testified in court that he fell out with the CEO after the bombing and how it was handled by them

    But taking a look at this old Reddit thread - it's very very interesting to see what Dortmund fans thought of him after he went;
