I watched the highlights. Honestly 8-2 is flattering for Barca. Bayern missed a number of sitters.

City...was Vincent Kompany really the glue that held that defense together?

If Kompany were still around he's probably in the lineup in place of Jesus or Sterling.

The announcers on DAZN were questioning City's lineup as the game was starting.

Guardiola coaching Juve next year?

And of course...

Just too cute again. I’m sure if you think about it for 100 hours you can convince yourself of the strategy but this felt like an instance of simply going out and being the better team. Even if you have to do the double pivot, why have five other defenders? And why Cancelo if the strategy was to push forward?

Long long time gone. I follow him on twitter. He’s usually Barca and Spanish league insufferable.

That’s just sensible. Wearing a psg shirt in Marseilles is a good way to get yourself jumped.

That was a really good game - LOVE seeing PSG lose, and also enjoy seeing Neymar do nothing on the big stage.

And Alphonso Davies is Canada's new sweetheart.

new?? pffft some of us watched him play for the shitty Whitecaps when he was 15 ;D

(seriously tho, he was captivating from the day he started in Vancouver - we all knew they'd have him for 2 years tops. nice job Caps - taking advantage of him while you had him, jeez...)

Gonna be fun to see who offers Messi more oil tankers, Man City or PSG.

I think they would just offer a very large weekly wage, Degen.
