Faaak, leg 1 without Chiello and Benatia would be pretty damn tough.

:D Damn straight! Is he finished, or is he done?

Bullshit. He's talking about a very real, and obvious difference, and doing it in his 2nd language. He didn't shit on Spurs, he was complimentary of their team in the same fucking interview. Not rich at all, coming from one of the finest central defenders of his generation, who has had a...

His point wasn't to shit on those clubs. His point was that clubs like Madrid and Juventus have pretty damn incredible footballing histories, while clubs like PSG and Tottenham have not had the same historical successes. That history gives the players for teams like Madrid and Juventus the...

Loved that body check on Alli! That little punk was diving all over the place, was good to see him actually take some real contact before hitting the deck, for a change.

Colossus. Just an absolutely fantastic performance, really couldn't have asked for much more. Chiello is a warrior, and a true Juventus legend. Knew he would bounce back for this one after his underperformance in the first leg. That's what champions do. :vidal:

My flight landed in the 83rd minute, so I actually missed this match. Will still assert that anybody who wants Chiello to retire, or thinks he always bottles it in CL, is hugely overreacting -- or brain dead. Also: this guy is a fucking legend, give your heads a shake and show some respect...

Thought he was fantastic. Really good. And that was an absolutely garbage non-call on their goal, it's not a 50-50 call, it's a very clear foul. Even the homer UK announcers repeatedly mentioned how poor a missed call it was by the official behind the net. Our defenders were great tonight...

Absolutely gutted that he'll miss the game; it obviously means everything to Giorgio, he's worked so hard for this. Thank goodness Barzagli has a couple full days of practice, we all know that he is one of the world's finest CBs. One thing we can all be damn sure of is that our team is going...

The captain was not to be denied today! Big time performance by Georgio!

Still have a huge soft spot for this guy, but I've gotta agree with Andy in that Chiello's antics are over the top. Not talking about the biting incident, but more him going to ground at damn near every opportunity. Probably as much as anyone on the team. One of the strongest guys we've got...

Massive goal. Forza Chiello, nicely taken.

:lol: Gotta agree, JFG.

That looks delicious.

Get this man some treatment, if anyone can recover in time for Napoli it's Giorgio! Forza Chiello!

:lol: Look out world, here comes the 'Nooch!

:D You won't get an argument from me there, they're both worthy of consideration. Chiello has the pedigree now though, definitely an advantage with the voters. I guess we'll have to see how these guys boss the last 8 games. It would be kind of cool to see them share the award, too. Great...

He's gotta be in the running for his 4th Serie A Defender of the year award (Well, 3rd and a half I suppose). We're so lucky to have this beast. Our future captain, right here!

Colossal Chiello! So imposing back there, so effective. Forza Giorgio, our future captain!

Space Cowboy! Love the reaction of the ladies as he's walking away... Hopefully he cracks some heads this weekend.
