Getting their stories straight no doubt.

I’ve been one of FSG’s biggest critics on here, but this is superb from Billy Hogan. https://twitter.com/robgutmann/status/1530930740879400962?s=21&t=15x0f4j-huPjYsHo8u4btg

I’ve never been to a European final, but this isn’t the first time Uefa have been negligent. There were similar stories in Athens from memory. Istanbul was a s*** show, people hiking hours to the ground because it wasn’t finished, and not able to get as much as a bottle of water for miles. It’s not f***ing ok. I’m really sorry you and others have to put up with this s***.

I hope people sue the s*** out of them, because money is the only thing those c**** understand. Has to be a class action or similar.

Have spent today getting leathered. Has helped. absolutely heartbroken that season doesn’t have more to show for it, but sometimes the worst comes before the greatest highs. Most teams would dream of one cup, we won two.

Yeah I think tiredness played a huge part in it.

Gutted. We didn’t turn up.

Not happening. f***.

I feel sick

Trent and Mo both not on it yet.

They’re very deep, 10 behind the ball.

We appear to have Ted Lowe commentating here in Singapore, which is pretty odd.

I know. f***ing hell!

This reminds me of the 'Hodgey's lad' rumour. Believable, but made up for a laugh.

The conversation may have changed with Sadio since he moved into the middle. The offer certainly should have done. Hope he stays because he’s been immense.

Although it is only Wednesday, I'm s***ting it. If Thiago and Fab are fit, I'll feel the opposite. Just don't want another Kewell situation. Jurgen and the lads will have planned for every eventuality.

He's better coming on to s***house our way to closing a game out. I think I'd go Fab, Hendo and Keita, swapping Keita for Thiago if he's fit. Although he kept passing to the wrong side yesterday, I'd be tempted to start with Bobby, Mane and Salah as the front 3. Bring Diaz on at 60 and put Mane through the middle. That should give them a load of problems to start, and even more for the last half an hour. Pretty sure it won't happen though!

Has anyone read any good articles on recovery / sports science in football? Surprised there hasn't been more chat about it. I wonder how much a long season takes out of players, and what they'll be doing between now and Saturday to give us the best chance possible. I think we'll go hell for leather in the first half and try and bully them. My only worry is our legs go in the second half.

Hope we've got a buyback clause. Imagine the scenes! Good luck Divock, we'll always love you.

No one will give a f*** about City if we win next weekend. Proud of the lads.

Neil and Rory Smith did an excellent TAW show this week. I wasn’t co platelet aware that you he PL have been in litigation for 4 years. Separate to the clusterf*** UEFA made of it. Im not sure how something could go on that long under UK civil litigation rules usually. No doubt City are spending a fortune on being lying b*****ds.

Never mind lads. If they keep Lampard, he'll take them down next year!
