Huge thanks to everyone who made the last 30 or so hours in Liverpool so special. So many memories. Tugs on the heart strings what a special place our home city can be. Topped off by that performance. Enjoy all 💙🙌💙

What happened to my club…?

Nervous goalkeeper equals nervous defenders equals nervous team equals nervous performance equals nervous fans! #EveChe

I think partly their confidence is shot. The negativity they get from the fans at the Bridge doesn't help. But obviously we've needed a new goalkeeper for three years and should have bought a centre back when Colvill got injured.

38,000 for a Round of 16 game against Lille and the takeaway from that is to raise prices for Bologna? You can’t keep asking fans to bring the noise, back the team, and create big European atmospheres while actively pricing out the very people who make that happen. At some point, you have to decide what actually matters more. #AVFC @DV1874

Anybody interested in what's going on at Eagle Football, OL and Botafogo, this one's for you.

Vamos lá, continuem com “assina logo isso aí, não tem outra solução”. Lá na frente quando a merda for ainda maior, não vai valer pedir desculpa pelo que está falando agora não. O certo é: montar um plano sólido para o pós- Textor, retirar o Textor na justiça e trazer profissionais especializados em restruturação de empresas para que sejam eles os verdadeiros gestores do Botafogo. Quem fala que não existe outra solução está apenas escolhendo o caminho mais fácil e 100% voltado para o imediatismo. O remédio que precisa ser tomado é amargo e impopular, mas o associativo precisa agir. Ninguém confia no associativo, mas a permanência do Textor pode ter efeitos ainda piores. O momento exige coragem para fazer o que precisa ser feito.

🚨🎙INTERVIEWER: Mason Mount, it's been two years since you joined Manchester United from Chelsea. What motivated you to make that decision, and what exactly went wrong between you and your former teammate Enzo? 🗣🎙Mason Mount: "Well, it's a long story. I really love Chelsea, my boyhood club, as everyone knows. Leaving them for Manchester United was one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make. But we couldn't reach an agreement on a new contract, and that was one of the main reasons I left." "I grew up playing for Chelsea, but the offer on the table just wasn't good enough for me. There were doubts about my future because I wasn't at my best at the time, after suffering injuries and I understand that. But judging my entire future based on that period left me with no choice but to move on." "As for my relationship with my former teammates, especially Enzo, I don't really know what went wrong. I think it was just the heat of the moment. Players often have small issues with each others (opponents) on the pitch. He's a very emotional guy with real passion for the game, not just for Chelsea. And with the big rivalry between Chelsea and Manchester United, maybe he's not happy that I'm playing for United now. But that's normal in football." "I still love Chelsea, maybe one day ill still wear the chelsea shirt again. And I'm not happy with the current situation there. Chelsea is one of the biggest clubs in Europe over the past 25 years and shouldn't be handled carelessly like it's been handled now. The fans deserve better, and I hope things start going in the right direction for them soon. That's all I have to say for now. Thanks."

@fft2106 It’s been a while since we’ve had a 40,000 attendance.

Pathetic for a game against the European Champions but the rise in prices plus the first leg scoreline didn't help, of course. Barely 10,000 inside by the end, many of them of PSG persuasion.

Agreed.

Wishing all the best to Trevoh Chalobah. #CFC

Will Chelsea reduce ticket prices ahead of Tuesday's game against PSG? Might lift the team if there's a decent crowd. Prices were set quite high and now we're three down. But miracles do happen.
