Because Barcelona are absolutely self destructive. A red card in each leg and some truly hideous defending. Barcelona are amazing in La Liga but very fragile in knockouts.

This is a 60/40 game in Woolwich's favour imo. With the players Atleti are missing, their current form etc. I can see Atletico winning but I’m not going in to this expecting them to do it over two legs at all.
Barca are amazing in La Liga cause other teams aren't allowed to touch Yamal (like Messi before him), and cause of all that "ref consulting" they paid millions for couple years back.
 
Get you . Aals thank you for explaining your reasoning.

But very much hoping you’re mistaken btw .

I could be - it’s close. Woolwich are not good at the moment either. They are tired and lacking confidence. But my view is that their ceiling is higher than Atletico’s.

Can see almost any result. Alvarez is brilliant and Griezmann is still a bit of a rolls Royce. They have better forwards, Woolwich have a better midfield and defence.
 
Agree ; but it’s far classier not to do so .

And , for another thing ; it’s not the whole reason we are where we are .

You’re free to disagree obviously.

Forget classier not to do so in many respects. We are too often like a dog eho likes his tummy tickled.

I didn't actually cite it as a reason why we don't get decisions as opposed to highlighting our silence, but I'm sure it's contributory.
 
26mm below? That's an inch. And their ground staff can't see that? Or don't they know the rules.They should fine them for wasting people's time.
Not 26mm below the limit, 26mm, below the limit, as in it was 26 mm, (which is) below the limit...

I'm not defending Woolwich in any way but there's nothing to mock here beyond the very fact that they were making an issue of grass length at all.
 
They get so much love from the press it is insane, all raving about how well they apparently played... they created the some total of f all against a poor madrid side with key players out... even we went there and scored a couple with a decimated side. Everyone focusing on decisions rather than the fact Woolwich just do not create. This madrid side arent even defensively storng
 

Fcuk Arteta but we need to be calling out decisions against so much more, and doing so vociferously.
Agree ; but it’s far classier not to do so .

And , for another thing ; it’s not the whole reason we are where we are .

You’re free to disagree obviously.
It's the performative way they go about these things that's so embarrassing - they actually had people filmed on their hands and knees measuring the grass FFS
The absolute cheek of complaining about not getting A SECOND PENALTY in ONE GAME is staggering!!

Try not getting one ALL fucking season you moaning cunts!

....don't see them offering to return all the 'gained points' they've had from MORE THAN A FEW QUESTIONABLE decisions this season!!!!!!
