    It's a fine example for any one of us as human beings; no matter how much pressure you live with, how much adversity and when you set the highest standards for yourself, it's all possible. I know we all got different opinions but he's the GOAT to me, hes 34 and still amazing!

    Simeone played into Juve's strengths by sitting extremely deep, Cancelo & Spinazzola tore them to shreds and when you have CR7 & Mandzukic going for headers it's a recipe for disaster. They also defended individually horribly and because their midfield line was so deep they couldn't win any 2nd ball to initiate a vintage counter, horrendous shape leaving Morata & Griezmann stranded with Chiellini & Bonnuci, who won every duel. If CR wants to, they're going to the final.

    I really have nothing much to say anymore about this man... He's done it all and we've seen him do it over and over again on the big occasions when it matters the most. Living Legend.

    I'll be flying to Berlin tonight for 3 weeks!! Think I should be seeing another Hertha Berlin game this season lol.. I'll also be around for the Dortmund v Bayern game which will be absolutely crucial. Hopefully find a nice bar for that!

    Swear I've been following Hertha more than Chelsea this season lol. Nice to see a couple of Hertha boys play in the U/21 German squad. We have a lot of young guns :D

    Should experiment with 3-4-3 next few games. Back 3 of Bailly, Lindelof (sweeper), Smalling. Dalot and Shaw wing backs. Fred and Pogba CM. Lingard, Rashford, Martial front 3

    Dalot and Shaw are the complete wing backs/full backs they are basically wingers with pace and stamina who can defend

    Wish I caught the game, I did see that horror tackle that brought Ajax to 10. That result def brings this to a close title race, let's see what happens!

    You guys did tremendous today, a repeat of that intensity and you guys have a solid chance of sending them out on their home field, a very tall task but certainly possible.

    I'm seriously impressed at how well you guys press as a unit, especially when recovering 2nd balls there's always like 3-4 people close to or hounding the player in possession. The problem I see is if that fails, you guys are easily exposed on the counter, something that's deadly against a team with CR/Bernadeschi on the counter. Should be an exciting return leg!

    In the meanwhile Barcelona are smoking cigars in the Nou camp
