(Jump to his 2nd goal at 2:35)

Lewandowski's hat trick on Saturday puts him at 39 goals in the Bundesliga on the season, only one behind Gerd Muller's record of 40 which was set 49 years ago.

The GOAT 9. If only he'd been healthy for either match against PSG, then we would have had a much more entertaining CL final.

Worst possible appointment for Pep & City. This man has a long history with Pep in La Liga and Champs league and it is not a positive one. (I know nobody is going to feel bad for us, but I just needed to vent.)

Ridiculous that UEFA has not even decided on a venue yet for the final, but already has the referee appointment figured out. All anybody should want in a final is for the ref to not be a talking point, and sadly it will be now because of this guys history with Pep and City. UEFA absolutely know that, and are just giving a big middle finger to City because of our history with them.

Going to be a fun top four finish in PL.
Apologies to the Liverpool supporters in this thread, that got absolutely hosed by Manchester United playing a second eleven vs Leicester yesterday, because United's fans actions led to a fixture pile up for them. Very unfair.

As much as my heart pumps piss for the Manchester clubs, I think this is pretty shitty. The officiating is terrible from top to bottom, especially in England, and I get UEFA is butt hurt over City but this sucks. Plus it stands to benefit Chelsea, so in the end nobody wins.

There are bad guys and bad guys.

If this match is played at Wembley between two English teams, it might as well be a Community Shield friendly.

Liverpool have no one to blame but themselves. Droppoing points to the likes to Leeds, Newcastle, Fulham, on and on it has gone since February. The season is a red headed bastard that can't be over soon enough. Sadly it might mean Europa League for Liverpool but a top four team should win the Champions League and United will likely Bruno PK their way to Europa, which should open up a couple of Champions League spots for 5th and 6th in the Premier League I believe. If they can somehow sneak in the back door and avoid Euorpa, great, otherwise I hope they finish 8th and don't have to spend Thursday nights in Ukraine.

Well, there's that. I think that's a good spot.

Compare this roster to 2017 and it's night and day... let's see the results on the pitch now.

I will believe in Berhalter fully if leaves Gyasi at home when they make the roster cuts.

I swear to god if Roldan, or Will Trapp even sniff the roster for WCQ im done.

I actually like Roldan. I don’t think he’s a starter, but if you wanted me to pick the 23 best players in the pool, he probably be somewhere between 20-25. Trapp is a zero though.

Nat Phillips and Rhys Williams starting at CB at Old Trafford because Virigil, Gomez, Matip, Kabak and Davies are all injured. It's utterly mindnumbing.

All the injuries, poor form at home, bad calls, no fans, Covid.

And they still have a chance. Still shaking.

Yesterday Stevie and Brendan lifted trophies elsewhere. Felt like a weight was lifted from 2013/14.

I don’t want to take sides but Israel and Palestine have to stop this shit. Both of them. It’s awful. I can’t stand seeing masonry piles littered with little kids burned by white phosphorus or bus bombs in Jerusalem anymore

Liverpool still need a proper striker who can put the ball in the net. Outside of Salah, no one is a threat to score and he's a winger. They need someone up top who can finish. Period.

I also think they need to finally get an attacking mid/#10 to replace Coutinho at long last. Everything is on the wings with Trent/Salah and Robbo/Mane, and with no presence on the ball in the middle of the park these lower half of the table clubs can park the bus in front of goal and make Liverpool break them down. A presence down the middle who is a threat on the ball and a threat to score goals and or create would make this a much better squad.

If this team finishes fourth somehow, it's a major accomplishment considering the multitude of minutes they have lost due to injury this season.

England has 26 players better than Trent Alexander Arnold. They’re winning the Euros.

Gets a summer off and England is going out the first decent team they face.

I’m settled with it.

Let the Harry Kane madness begin.

My guess is either City, United or Chelsea land him.

City: Kane wants to win trophies. He is guaranteed a League Cup here at worst.

United: The opportunity to take PKs every single match.

Chelsea: London

France could put out a B/ U-21 team and they'll still win it IMO
