Has anyone ever loved playing Barcelona more than Kylian Mbappe? 14 goals in 11 matches against Barca.

Unbelievable finish from Evanilson. The ironic thing is, if he misses it, it's exactly the type of chance that makes people go: 'He's got to score that'.

Hearts have faced the fewest shots on target in the Premiership this season (28) but have the joint-4th worst defensive record. Beau Reus has saved only 46.4% of shots on target he's faced. Next worst is 63.3%.

After Lamine Yamal equalised, Barcelona managed 2 clearances and no other touches before Vitinha made it 3-2. #PSG

Wait... the offensive players don't even look at where the ball's going!? This might be the downright dumbest thing in sport.

One of my favorites ever was the fake punt return the Rams pulled off. Just an incredibly unique play that is so rarely used.

They gave Moyes one major summer signing - Marouane Fellaini. Fergie had just won the league, but it was clear even at that point that the squad was failing. xitter.cf/ThatBudgetLad/status/2…

Michael Carrick has been left hung out to dry by the Man Utd board. Everyone knew they needed 5-6 signings to improve the depth of their squad. He got 3. This is the result.

Insane how wrong this is. Dembele played 61 times in the 2024/25 season - the season he won the Ballon d'Or for. Lamine Yamal only played 57 times last season, by the way.

Insane that Ousmane Dembele is a Ballon d’Or winner playing 30 games per season.

PSG deserving 4-2 winners over Barcelona in a spectacular match. First-half performance devastating in its intensity, second in its efficiency. While the result ultimately doesn't mean much, it's another strong message from Luis Enrique's side. #UCL

It's obscene that Pacho has to go off for a minute after clearly taking a full on kick to the face. Ferran doesn't deserve further punishment in the context, but neither should PSG be punished with losing their CB. Stupid law in that situation.

Joan Garcia has only made 15 saves all season in La Liga. He's made 7 in half an hour against PSG. #UCL

Cumulative inflation in 🇫🇷 from 2016-2026 is 22.9% Cumulative inflation in 🇬🇧 from 2016-2026 is 41% The french are rightfully protesting the cost of living (hijacked by looters) We’re being fucking robbed blind but we’ll just head to our work when we should be doing the same

Translation: PSG's squad is so good, they have 3 Ballon d'Or nominees and a World Cup winner among their weaker players
Remiee@remiexxyOct 17
Luis Enrique has benched all his key players vs Strasbourg because of the Barca game next week, he might as well give himself a break too and not attend the match and keep himself fully rested and fresh for the Barca game.
