UEFA Champions League 2023/24

"Tragedy Chanting" was the Spurs crowd on Monday.

Usual aside...I read so little about the absolute tragedies at games in Scotland....selective "sympathy"..with a nod to Khobar.

Made better still by them thinking they’d equalised. The European’s hate them too!

Man U and the arrogant Geordies out.  Magic!  Shame the Gooners haven't followed suit but their time will come/  Glad to see the flat track bullies of Europe Sevilla also sent packing, they may be great in the Europa League, (now they don;t even have that o enjoy), but are just crap in the UCL, why everyone raves about them is beyond me.

It doesn’t matter to us anymore, fortunately/unfortunately.

I still think it will end up with the PL on top.

Still don't think an Italian team will be winning the UCL anytime soon

JT doing the CL Draw summed our current state up really didn't it.

[Ham]

City and Arsenal getting easy draws.

Year after year we got Barca or PSG.

In the later rounds sure.
Athletico M, Dortmund and Lille in the last 16 for the last 3 years.
Can't complain much when it gets to last 8.

How frustrating. Got to 35/52.  Could see the faces of the other players but couldn't for the life of me remember their damn names. 

Lost hours doing that 🙈

Managed to get 50/52. 

Painfully blanked on  question #4 and then #14 after trying several other players.

I ended up getting them both, they were just ones I had to look up. 

Got the other 50 straight off the bat, just missed those two initially which was frustrating because neither are difficult guesses.

50 was far better than me, before I enlisted help (cheated). Like @Ham I could see most of their faces but names ?? Guti was the one I would have never guessed.

I got 49 and I’m so annoyed with the ones I didn’t get…

Was never sent off during his 17-year playing career, turning out for Real Madrid, Schalke, Al Sadd and New York Cosmos.

Brazilian defender whose 43 senior titles make him the most decorated player of all time.

Spanish midfielder who won the Champions League four times with Real Madrid.

Yeah, when I saw the answers it made it more annoying. I probably wouldn’t have got Guti but the other 2 I should have got!
