More whining
So to summarise, the ref maybe shouldn't have allowed the advantage for Ajax during which Blind rightly was awarded a second yellow?And a handball shouldn't have resulted in a penalty because people at a later review thought it might have been accidental?
Get a grip - Football is always unfair if you lose - time to move on.
But a penalty and two red cards in one decision is unprecedented in the history of football.
Chelsea and Tottenham, 2 lucky escapes.
Well.....
So much easy TV right- and scummy ownership money while circumventing FFP rules and then still needing a lot of help from an incompetent ref. to draw against a feeder club.
I can only imagine how the average old school Chelsea fan must feel watching this empty, shallow Russian Oligarch make belief football fantasy. Full of mercenaries and many, many dozens of bought youth players send out on loan but never ever for Chelsea's first team.
Clubs like Chelsea, City and PSG should've gotten a lot more punishment then they already have. Except UEFA is a spineless organization.
Clubs that grew from European minnows to European "giant's" in less than 10 years, Making up sponsorship deals in the process as a way to circumvent FFP rules.
Clubs like the above are a farce, discusting shallow, nothing clubs, an insult to every football club build from the ground up.

To be honest FFP was designed to keep the big clubs big and the medium and small clubs...well...medium and small.So much easy TV right- and scummy ownership money while circumventing FFP rules and then still needing a lot of help from an incompetent ref. to draw against a feeder club.

I have no problem with external investment it keeps things churning. Without it it would still be a Top 4 in the PL. Instead it's a Top 6 and could grow to a Top 8 in the next couple of years if Wolves, Everton etc continue to grow. Just look at all of the European leagues for evidence of what happens when you don't have churn. Same old winners EVERY year.
Bayern Munich
Juventus
Barca/Real
YAWN
It's why the Premier League is the best in the world and is the most viewed by far.

I'm one, a fan for 50 years. To answer your question, it feels pretty good actually. How old are you? I'm guessing you decided to support a club that were already a European giant before you pitched up on the scene, had won 3 European cups in a row, had a legendary history with a legacy of fabulous players. And you think you can lecture me, who decided to support an unsuccessful club that were arguably not even in the top 3 clubs in their own city.
I know it must be hard for you, supporting a club that was part of European royalty, only to be usurped by a nothing club like us, but it happened, so you need to get over it.

Does the lady in Starbucks get a tearful diatribe on tax avoidance and independent cafes if your coffee isn't to your liking?
Be a good signing for you
BREAKING: Chelsea have AGREED a €45m deal with Ajax for the transfer of Hakim Ziyech in the summer.
VERY good price for a player of his quality!
