    Well you were talking about football being cruel and all that. Obviously my sympathy or lack thereof isn't a factor in the trials and travails European football. I was just making the point that they had favourable group in the CL but they blew it. I don't know anything about their performance against Olympiakos but it seems similar to last night from your short analysis. Maybe that's their major flaw, just not being able to finish teams off.

    So Diego Costa starts after all. That horse placenta is magic stuff.

    My son hates Gareth Bale. He calls him Gareth Fail. Anyway, he relished that miss.

    And that's why Casillas should never start for Ireland.

    Does Coentrao ever do anything other than pick fights with people? I don't think I've ever seen such a narky player.

    With all that match practice Casillas got in La Liga, he really should have done better.

    Absolute stupidity starting Costa. Egotism running wild.

    Our Roy is one mean pundit, talking as if this has been a failure for Atletico.
    They have already achieved the "impossible" and were an inch away from the European cup. Yes i suppose they did fall short by an inch of achieving one of the most magnificent seasons ever, in the history of european football

    Oops. But totally right with the last post.

    Disappointing to see Franco's Former XI & their fascist supporting presence win in the end!

    I don't think I've ever seen a player rescue so many poor performances by scoring a massive goal. Fair play to him, he should be able to kick on further next season with less pressure/expectation.

    A goal doesn't rescue a poor performance. It means he scored while playing poorly. Can't believe he cost as much as he did. Game completely bypasses him if defence plays deep.
