Nice, that was a good end to the football season.
I know its funny to laugh at liverpool but please tell me you are not seriously comparing the agurably best rb of last seasons cl to calabria
Is it okay to support for Atalanta?
Frankly it should be treason to want any team other than Atalanta or Napoli to win it.
Either they're bigger teams getting closer to our titles or scum sides.
Barca! Rather them at No.3 than the thieves from liverpool
Or bayern.
Only team that shouldn?t win are Juventus
Ligue 1 has played their last game on March 8
Bundesliga has played their last game on June 27
La Liga will play their last game on July 17
Premier League will play their last game on July 26

Lyon will play their first competitive game since lockdown while ladri arrives with an exhausted squad. This is going to be an interesting tournament
ladri would have won the league long before.
yeah probably true, I just wanted to show how big the contrast is between some teams
New question, is it possible for current Napoli to beat current Barca?
France Football has confirmed that the Ballon d?Or 2020 will not be assigned. ?The winners of last year?s edition will have no successors?.
Lionel Messi won the 2019 edition, his sixth so far, and will therefore keep the title for another 12 months.
"It's always hard for a club like Real to go into a game saying 'we'll surrender the ball'. It is the same for United," Rooney told The Sunday Times. "But we lost two Champions League finals going toe-to-toe with Guardiola's Barcelona, by trying to press high and get round them, which was suicidal.
"I remember Alex Ferguson saying 'we're Man United and we're going to attack, it's in the culture of this football club' and thinking 'I'm not too sure about this'.
"I think all the players knew, deep down, it was the wrong approach, that we were abandoning the way that had brought us success in that 2008 semi-final, and sure enough both times we got outplayed."
The Red Devils' all-time record scorer went on to reference Liverpool's 2-0 win against Tottenham in last year's final as proof that pragmatism often reaps rewards on the biggest stages.
"There is being true to the club, but then there's sitting back afterwards and thinking 'we lost'," Rooney added. "For me, it doesn't matter how you do it in these big Champions League games, as long as you win ? look at how Liverpool ground it out in last year's final ? and I think [Madrid boss Zinedine] Zidane has the same mindset."
I feel really bad for Juventus.
Would love to have seen them in the finals.
Guess they're gonna remain 7uve for a while..
