Milan has lifeline

PSG is going through with a draw if Milan/Newcastle wins. This pen weighs gold for them.

Dortmund might go for it just for fun, eliminating Enrique. I would love that.

So, Milan have to win last match, and hope that PSG will lose.

Marciniak lost the plot.

I mean that was blatant handball even if it hit the chest first and all that nonsense of reading the handball rule, and probably deservedly given since the arm was extended all the way during the situation... but that was the softest of them all.

As funny as this is we don't need them alongside gobbi breathing down Inter's neck in Italy. Milan finishing third would be perfect, but I don't give them many chances vs Newcastle.

PSG are garbage, no matter how much money you want to throw that them.....

Hakimi needs to come back and play in a real team.

PSG are garbage because they don't have a real project. They don't sign players based on what they need. They just buy names and expect them to play well together. Well it doesn't work like that.

Not a penalty at all unless the handball rule has changed recently. If it hits you and from there bounces to the arm/hand, it shouldn't be a pen.

Watch press photos of Nasser going for a dinner with Ceferin tomorrow, both smiling.

This soulless club can buy itself out of the group, but the jury always punishes them later on. I don't want Meelan to go through so they will miss out on Club World Cup ( means a world to their budgeting owners and superscouts) , but PSG has come a long way distrupting the football world.

Most of Spanish teams would be first in their group, I don’t want to meet them yet, we need to be first.

If we are 2nd, I can see they “push” for City - Inter again

It is funny out of all 3 potential penalties, only the one that is not one is given as a penalty.

Still PSG doesn't have the gear to handle low block, but they improved from last game that's why went from 4-1 to 1-1; they learned how to get the ball across midfield, handling the pressing, better movements for that, so conceding less; but they simply don't have a big man, clinical finishing, small area drills (you can tell by seeing them move to keep possessions, but not attacking), neither are they good at creating crossing opportunities or have methods to stretch compact positions (or switch sides and hit them at position transferring), normally I would blame PSG as the whole organization, but clearly Enrique has no gameplan for the final third, most of the "chances" were created by individuals' brilliancies, but moving Mabappe to the mid and cut in with the wingers did some help, but they are wingers so you get that kinda finishings.

Atletico, Barcelona, Real Madrid, City, Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Leipzig are through. As of now they're all our possible opponents. Apart from City, Bayern and Real I think we're at least on par with the rest and we can beat them.

Lazio, Sociedad also through but we won't face them in the next stage for sure.

Six teams left to be decided, Napoli and Arsenal are almost certain as well.

Actually PSG would be out with a draw if Newcastle wins. Newcastle have the better h2h.

It's just nice that the only team with a soul and without foreign investment will likely top the group.

Milan is not beating Newcastle away. They’re done for. Dropping out of Europe altogether is probably a good thing for them. They don’t have a strong enough squad to fight on several fronts despite several people on FIF randomly ranting how good of a summer transfer they had.

Erm...

As for the soul part, have you seen our logo?
