Makes no sense, simon constantly critisizes southgate for failing against the big teams and not being able to get it over the line. Real madrid is basically the opposite
The guy is delusional and a hypocrite. How in his smart mind does he say things like that. Let's wait for England to fall short again and he will criticize them for not getting over the line. The guy just wants to debate and is obsessed with trying to make the other person look wrong and stupid.
ââ@@vincentvries9854I like Simon but on this one I disagree with him. There are things to debate against and things to use context and common sense that tournament or KO football is about eliminating and qualifying to the next round cause possession and stats don't appear on the cup trophies just like the Carabao cup and the FA cup unfortunately champions league is the hardest considering the teams available.
Just another english man trying to use the word lucky for their opponents, but when an english side wins is on pure merits lol
Yeah i really dont get the comparison, whether you like RM or not, they are the team to beat in the CL.
Think he means in terms of Southgate getting lucky draws. But I agree with yourself, itâs a really weird comparison for Jordan to make
Unlike Southgate they win trophies lol . What a silly comparison đ
They are just coping with silly comments like that. City literally scored from a ball that crossed the line last season and yet today Simon is talking of Madrid's luck...they really are coping, the EPL fans.
Imagine not getting the simile and what he was saying đ
Extremely silly
Everything he was saying prior to the match and made to look stupid thats why he's making this silly takes
What's truly silly is someone like you misconstruing what Simon said and then making a post about it. How can you have not understood him? [SMH]
English pundits diminishing the UCL when their teams are out. đ
Yes and if De Bruyne was English they would call his goal world class. đ đ.
Johnny foreigner delusion everyone
Simon Jordan is delusional
Yep, not only in this subject but most things of late. Very odd
Simon Jordan hates spanish teams with a passion. Its obvious if you see his opinions and takes whenever he talks about madrid, barca or Atletico. I wonder if he was bullied by the Spaniards when he was living in Spain.
â@@kosare95obviously đđ
Not really, Madrid are awful to watch at times.
â@@MrBarry465there not here to entertain in cup games...win and go through..end off
It gets under Simon's skin that Madrid is so successful and revered. If they were an English team he would go overboard with praise.
Bingo! He keeps calling Manchester United and Liverpool the biggest clubs in the world and you can tell he hates bringing up Real Madrid and Barcelona as arguably both can be seen as bigger (I'd argue Real maybe not Barcelona)
đŻđŻđŻđŻ
@@Degrasinboth those clubs are known cheaters though, getting backhander deals from the Spanish government. Why would anyone rate cheaters?
5 of Real's European cups were won when most of Europe didn't care much about it.
â@@user-re9mp2nh5ewill we won 9 ucl....keep crying
That is massively disrespectful to Madrid. For Simon to be effectively comparing Ancelotti to Southgate makes him look a fool. If Ancelotti managed England we would've won something with the current England players.
Just give them credit they defended well
English media and their EPL fans don't know anything about defending and yet they waffle on about "total football" and "pure football", Mourinho went there to school them about the art of defending and now that's all they brand him, he whooped them so hard that they convince themselves into delusion that Mourinho teams are bad offensively.
Reason why is hard to give them credit is because after a week another team will pull this same defensive masterclass and everyone will rubbish it and call it anti football. U cant rubbish Arsenal for doing that against Man City few weeks ago, and praise Real for doing it now. One day it is Big Sam's ball, the next day it is world class for Real Madrid.
@@danielalfresco969 that's just hypocrisy if a team holds man city to draw any team in the world they should be applauded because man city's attack is something else
We dont care about defending we want good footbal
@@zakariaaisset325 real madrid wasn't there to entertain people with good football they only had one goal which was to go through to the semis and they did
What a load of BS from Simon. Arrogance like this and the obnoxious commentary from Steve McManaman is why I was happy Madrid won. They're the biggest football club in the world and of all time, yet arrogant English pundits act as if they're just a stepping stone because they're not a Premier League team.
Totally Clueless he talks BS
Itâs hard to believe that Macca scored in the final for Madrid. Along with Fletcher, just two complete clowns who canât hide their biases.
In a 2 club tin pot league
@@markrobinson1369 yeah, cause the Premier League is so much better with City winning every year.
@@markrobinson1369 PL is a 1 club tin pot league
Simon talk a lot rubbish letâs be honest. He said united is bigger club than REAL MADRID đ
That's REAL.
@@Jim-qm9xf đ
@@Jim-qm9xf Any team on planet earth knows Real Madrid is the dream team â€
It's close, let's not lie
Yes his right mate but he forgot to say in England Utd are big while Real are the biggest in the world
RM and Ancelotti knew what to do when they scored early and to catch city on the break. That's how they adapted their games and won. Ancelotti did an Italian job.
English arrogance is our worst trait. Well done Bayern and Madrid, both teams deserved it. Apparently City and Arsenal aren't bothered though because it's not that elite of a competition according to Mr Jordan
Mate Simon is smoking some good quality stuff, he makes a lot of sense when he talks about FFP and financial aspects but from a footballing perspective, he's shite lad
This might be his worst opinion yet, and thatâs a tough thing to achieve
If you think Real Madrid was just hanging on last night then you just donât know ball. Simon proved that everyday.
@@theimmaculated6480what đ
If Real Madrid werenât holding on last night, what were they doing.
Absolute delusion.
You think they planned to be penned in their own half for 100 minutes and concede 34 shots on their goal and 18 corners
Grow up.
â@sidbob1215 I think they do in a way plan for it because they have done this on more than one occasion. They go all out attack at home, and are very comfortable sitting back and being opportunistic in attack away from home.
There more than a couple of examples of them taking a handful of shots and with the opponent taking more. But Madrid still go through. One game they had 3 shots whilst PSG had 21. Another at home they had 10 shots with Chelsea taking 28. They won both ties on aggregate.
Most notable example in the final against Liverpool. They took 4 shots whilst Liverpool had 24. And they won. That's why they do so well in the UCL. They are comfortable playing any style needed to get a result.
@@JR-sj1jz stop teaching idiots about football
â@@theimmaculated6480delusional at it funiest đ
Real Madrid had a lot of injuries this season and was only beaten twice ! What a stupid comparison. They are only salty because the English clubs all stink in Europe this season and the only possible rep that will be left is Villa đ
He can't even name a single English club that would beat Real Madrid this season. What's he gonna say if Madrid beat Villa, Arsenal and Liverpool in the UCL next season? "The luck continues"? He's a one dimensional analyst.
Y Benzema se fue por sorpresa, y nos dejó sin delantero,Ancelotti ha hecho magia este año
Such a baffling comparison. Nonsensical.
I used to really respect Simon but his arguments are getting so weak. He changes tune more often than the pied piper
How he couldn't use his brain and use Jose Mourinho is baffling. That was a Jose performance through and through. Not flashy, gritty, and we're fine to let you pass 1,000 times but we're going to bend not break. Nobody loves a win like that more than prime Jose.... not pathetic southgate
He does flip flop. For him to intimate that he wouldnât be singing the eplâs praises had the English teams gone through is ludicrous.
Don't think the pied piper was particularly famous for his extensive repertoire
@@samuelratchford862 very fair point
Possession doesn't mean you have a god given right to win a game.
Thank you. I don't understand why people don't understand this. Having more possession doesn't make a team better than the one with less possession.
Preach lad, well said. How do these so-called "pundits" don't get it?
Finally found someone with coherent and logical thoughts. Have these stupid pundits ever witnessed any Italian defensive tactics? Seriously its like football 101đ
In the great sport of Foutball only way to win is score goals and win games at the end simple as that đ
they held possession the most, but Madrid score goals much more efficiently than them over the two legs. lmao
Imagine Simon Jordan , a former owner of a football club in England speaking like someone who has zero knowledge of the game. How could any sane human being compared RM to Southgateâs England National Team? Very reckless and utterly ridiculous
But he doesn't he just love to hear themselves. All english ppl are like this
There's more managerial talent in the eyebrow that Ancelloti doesn't use than there is in Southgate's entire body.
real madrid are just above anyone else. they have european pedigree. they were defending like it was a normal day at the job for them. everything they do is without stress. the commentators was stressing more than the players and ancelotti. just remember their final against liverpool when casemiro and marcelo was laughing and joking in like the 55th minute. these players are experienced and seasoned
Big game team, big game club, elite mentality club, elite club. They can win games and trophies even when they aren't amazing.
I also remember that final against AtletiâŠ.
Winning on penalties it's pure luck, nothing else
@@brunokalonji9874if Oil cant buy you luck then nothing else canđ
â@@brunokalonji9874 Vazques in 2016 was spinning the ball om his finger before he took the pen in the UCL final, he was juggling the ball yesterday đ. RĂŒdiger told Lunin where Kovacic would shoot and Kepa told Lunin where Silva would shoot. It wasn't luck, these guys were looking like they just got out of a lunch session at Madrid's training complex and were about to do a penalty training.
When a single club have more champion leagues than all England teams combined is luck ... Damn! Something must be wrong in the best league in the world with club priorities.
I support any club that ain't mine and wanted the results last night. I can't stand Arsenal and Hate city. You are factually wrong English clubs have 15 Madrid 14. No excuses Madrid are top . The first 5 were played and won when many teams especially English teams didn't play in Europe. It was Manc united that went first at playing . I think it could be PSG's year they look good but are bottlers . So, it could be Madrid's 15th for REAL.
â@@Jim-qm9xfso we shouldn't count the first world cup won by Uruguay? What kind of argument is thatđ . How about every world cup before South Sudan officially become a country?
@@danmero6864 who is arguing? Oh you! Did I speak to you? See ya. I am watching the footie . To your question đ€ yes , probably. Why can't you read and make a discerning judgement? Oh, you think it is edgy to argue . I am staying facts. Bye.
@@Jim-qm9xf @Jim-qm9xf no, I think you should make a better argument and don't hide your point between the lines. The fact that RM is so consistent that it holds the best record of any team in Europe even without the first 5 titles that didn't include the precious English teams reflects pure class
Crazy how is these English pundits are making excuses all of a sudden. If his beloved English team won he would have changed his tone. Come on mate
People forget that Madrid scored 4 goals over 2 legs in this clash just like city
3 absolutely lucky goals may I add, 2 deflected goals at the bernabeu 1 being a Ruben Dias own goal, and the ping pong goal at the etihad, luck plays a massive part
â@@scottpearce288bohohoho keep crying đ
@@scottpearce288ahahahaha what a sadistic cry. Schitty scored 3 long range goals that are more luckier and that fumble goal by Rudiger though. hmmm tough luck
So you want them to play to Manchester City strength??? Real Madrid came with a gameplan and they stick to it and it worked... They even scored first. Whats wrong with that. Isn't defending part of the game now ??
Madrid said to city ok bring it on show us what you got. City folded when they threw everything at Madrid to no avail. đ đ
SImon Jordan
"Manchester City will bash Real Madrid in England"
Now he can eat his humble pie not a single EPL team in the semi finals...
đđđđđđ. He is like that always. He is a clown
Check the stats he was right except for the result. Not a fan of Simon but City better in both legs. That's cup football.
He wasnât wrong was he.
Battered them in Madrid as well.
đ
â@@sidbob1215â madrid are not the ones in their prime its city .madrids kids are not even peak prime yet and a few old legends. They don't even have a striker. I remmeber city without a striker struggled for few years.. plus city have one of la ligas best coach to back them. What do u expect...
@carlheald9228 Except for the result đđđ thatâs a massive exception
That pretty much sums up his knowledge of football
also when he repeatedly calls Leverkusen "levercowzen"
The so called better team by a magnitude has been knocked out by the "Southgate of domestic league" twice in 3 years but some guy who knows nothing about football still calls it luck. Football is not not possession, it's about winning.
Simon Jordan's sitting there trying to downgrade a Club's accomplishments in the European Cup by stating it's only 13games!!! WTF đđđ
Madrid are winners they found a way to win in difficult circumstances yet they are being likened with who barely ever wins anything đ
đđđđ
Yes they have all the money but arenât allowed to spend it, because the old elite clubs (of which I am a fan of one - Liverpool) bricked it and forced the powers to introduce not fair - fair play rules
It's not luck, Real Madrid are the dream destination for more of the best players than any other club are, they literally have first refusal on the majority of players so they'll always be up there & possess that superstar quality.
He's acting as if non of the City players wouldn't dream of joining Madrid.
They have been objectively lucky in the competition for a long time nowâŠ
@jimmytoothpaste1757 luck helps you once or twice not your whole history.
Which has rubbed off on Bellingham since he arrived. A "superstar" quality which sees them continually throwing themselves to the ground screaming in agony to miraculously jump back to their feet in an instance. The time wasting even before they scored and the constant whining to the officials was hilarious.
â@jimmytoothpaste1757 it's disingenuous to label it "alot of luck" - if you're unlucky all the time you suck at what you do, if you're lucky all the time alot of skill is involved too
Southgate of football??? Are you kidding me? Madrid is the king of football. Is that comparable to whatever Southgate is? Simon ... you are delusional
Simon Jordan is BIG MADđ That smug little man is BIG MAD
The most successful team in la liga is the Southgate of la liga
Makes a lot of sense
Real Madrid is The most successful Team in Europe
Most successful team ever more like.
@@Rodney231uefa killed seri a to promote la liga
Jordan thinks Man Utd are bigger than Real Madrid lol, that should tell you everything about this character.
This is probably Simonâs worst take and thereâs no other way to put it. Youâre talking about a club with 14 champions league trophies and a manager whoâs won 4 himself and 2 with Madrid! đ itâs laughable to make the Southgate comparison, a man who has no CV outside of a World Cup semi final (loss) and Euro final (loss)⊠Madrid were never going outplay City especially away from home. I think Simon is just upset thereâs no English teams left in the competition đą
Premier league delusions destroyed simons football knowledge
Shows why his ownership at crystal palace was what it was like. No knowledge at all.
Simon is a sad individual. We keep hearing how the PL blah blah blah better but teams like Bayern who have been horrendous still knock out Arsenal who have been far better this season. Real dont have a good defense yet the amazing City couldn't knock them over. If Madrid win the CL this season then all the English wins in total will match them. No respect hence they almost always beat English clubs. Even though i support a PL club i love it when the PL clubs except mine đ get bumped as we hear so much disrespect. How many WCs and Euros england have won? Yet they supposed to be the bestest ever.
So then Southgate = Greatest Of All Time.
Southgate = 14 international trophies đ
The REAL slim shady.......
Real Madrid are the biggest, most iconic and most decorated team.. EVER⊠Simon please row back. City are a tiny little minuscule club in comparison. To mention them with Southgate is outrageous and delusional across all facets. Ridiculous Simon

â@@MrBarry465keep crying
â @@MrBarry465man city must be trash if they got knocked out by them at home đ
@@dannybradley8391 Small but important correction: Man City are better in the *ball possession* department., which doesn't always equate to a consistent creation of high quality chances when facing a style that hard counters possession-oriented teams like the catenaccio pulled off by Madrid for 100+mins. City had 33 shots with only 9 on target and an xG of 2.7, compared to Madrid's 3 on target with an xG of 1.4. Taking an even closer look, Man City's xGOT (for shots on target) was actually only slightly higher than Madrid's at 1.79 vs. 1.46, meaning that City potentially only had a second goal in them the whole game after all of that possession, after all of those shots taken and all of those crosses and corners put into the box. That second goal was probably De Bruyne's missed sitter but what Madrid did so well for so long is to reduce all of that control over the game that City had (particularly after Rodrygo's goal) to just ~2 high quality chances in 120mins.
One of those went in and the other, well if you're playing a calculated numbers game to get to the penalty shootout where arguably you might have the upper hand with more experience (and intel on the opposition thanks to Kepa and Rudiger)...reducing the opposition to a coin flip on one, maybe two chances is as good as it gets in reducing the effectiveness of the opposing team's high possession percentage. City are obsessed in having control of the ball (like most Guardiola teams do), but Madrid and Ancelotti made sure that obsession was largely inefficient and far more ineffective than usual with a disciplined and resilient display of Catenaccio while still maintaining a somewhat reasonable xG of 1.4 across the few chances they had overall. It's neutralising your opponent while still maintaining a credible threat on the counter attack.
The difference between Madrid's Catenaccio display and the park the bus of say a Luton Town or most other teams is that Madrid can still keep high enough xG numbers on the break while also holding City's to within arm's length, resulting in a low xG difference between the two that unsurprisingly led to the penalties. A 'park the bus' team would also have 11 men behind the ball but crucially with something like 0.5xG or less, and typically in a league game where that side are playing for either the 1 point draw or even to simply avoid racking up the numbers in the Goals Against column, and then roll on next match.
Conclusion: Wednesday night was just one example of what Madrid do best on this stage: they know how to win 'ugly' when necessary and play the numbers game to seize victory out of the jaws of defeat, more than any other club in the history of the UCL.
Madrid deserve credit for defending so well
Defending so well??? A big club park the bus with a trailer attached to it for 90min, and you call it defend so well really???
@@brunokalonji9874yes they got their goal and weâre very good defensively, Man City had lot of possession etc but weâre limited to hardly anything in terms of chances, Madrid gave them no space at all in the box, They done a job on City and went through, outstanding defensive performance.

same here. it was fun while it lasted!
City failed to beat real in some 200 minutes of football across two games...so real was not lucky to go through...they did what they had to do to go through perfectly...period
How can you compare Real Madrid to Southgate? Says they get through games that they shouldnât; Southgate doesnât do that? He bottles it against the big teams and beats the smaller teams? And Madrid win things unlike Southgate, the disrespect given to none English teams is crazy đ€Łđ€Ł
Someone check on Simon. He's been out of it recently. Southgate? Are you serious?
Well at least Madrid win trophies, 14 Champions league btw.
Simon is losing his mind. Real Madrid scored FIRST and is a relentless team with or without the ball. WINNERS WIN.....Hala Madrid !!!!
Simons just embarrassed after his prediction that City would brush them aside at the etihad
U can always count on Simon to say such stupidity so eloquently. Madrid is Madrid donât compare.
As Bellingham said when Madrid showed interest in him he didn't want to sign for anyone else not even Man city.
Jim white says itâs THE elite competition and simons answer âitâs a knockout tournamentâđ
Simon, Southgate can merely dream of being the Madrid of international football.
The difference is they end up winning the whole thing. They are not the Southgate of anything they are just Madrid in Europe they just win.
if Arsenal wouldâve dug in at Bayern n came away with a 1-1 penalty win, Simon would praise them for doing whatâs needed to go through
How long are we going to act like defense isnât 50% of football? And Madrid dominated the game defensively?city wasnât the better side ..they conceded from 8 shots ..and only scored once from 30+ shots ..itâs a results business
Defense is also part of football,,,
U can b good in your attack and i wll b good in my defense
So wat he saying đđđđ
Here goes the English bitter bias

Pure nonsense man. From both managers. Yous have all the money in the world. Even compared to Munich and Madrid. Excuses as per.
A penalty shootout isn't a complete lottery. Some of those City players seemed to bricking it and some bottled taking one (Rodri). On that basis you won't win if you don't have belief you will score as you won't take it with conviction
Simon's logic: holds a domestic league which by the way has only one champion, at a higher standard than a champions league because a champions league is 90% non champions. What a logic
12 semis in the last 14. Beat you so-called best team ever. Typical little England pundits. This is why you will never win anything

New low for Simon
In two games Madrid scored 4 goals. The went behind; they equalized. They scored first at City. I havnt heard any British pundit mentioning Phil Foden at all. They havnt said anything good. They havnt said anything bad. âïž Halland had like 2 shots total over both legsâïž. If this was chess; city play to eat up material while Madrid just try to get checkmate as soon as possible. So all that âcity dominating possessionâ talk is irrelevant because Madrid always posed a serious lethal threat on the counter. (In order to beat Madrid in two legs city NEED Kyle walker. Madrid doesnât depend on any individual player to beat city) âïž. Even though he missed his pk Modric taking the first pk displayed the difference in mentality between the two teams. What these guys need to know and understand is that in sports and the rest of the life. More often than not âITS NOT ABOUT BEING THE BEST; ITS ABOUT BEING THE WINNER, THE CHAMPION, VICTORIOUS!â How can 3 đŠ be fav for Euro when other countries have multiple world class keepers and they donât have one?

I quite like Simon but itâs moronic takes like this that are making me really wonder
Winning city that way makes me and many others happy we saw the most feared and most dangerous players among them asking their coach to change them, suffered and lost the game and exhausted đ© bringing city to their knees
The old inexperienced excuse. Perhaps they should sign the champions league experienced man of the match Eric Dier đ ?
Boring Assnal were lucky to win on pens against Porto, played Bayern at home with no visiting fans and still got exactly what they deserved, nothing!
Yeah, right.. Southgate has been winning trophies left and right. What a nonsense. It's astonishing how every time English teams are spanked out of CL, the English Media's sourness finds a new limit. Real Madrid has not spent a fraction of Man City in recent times and getting every ounce of juice from their veterans (35/34/38) on the run is astonishing albeit painful to swallow for defenders of English teams. One has to just compare these 2 teams benches to stay a bit rational... but Southgate comment was just a whole new level.
Real Madrid just know how to win tough matches.
Refs and brown envelopes đ°
Bro almost criedđđđ
Real Madrid are a better defensive team than City are offensively. The best team didn't lose just because you like they playing style more. City need to learn how to play in different ways especially in the champions league. They still haven't learn how to navigate this competition and grind out wins on nights where your opponent is not Burnley
Thatâs nothing to do with luck but fortune favours the best. Big clubs and big teams know how to adapt to win and Real is the biggest of them all.
3 top City players asked to be subbed off, can't push on till the end, that's just throwing in the towel. That's the difference, Madrid defended well till the end and got the win, that's all that matters. Both City and Arsenal bottled it.
Simon probably cried himself to sleep yesterday
The penalty kick was an example of genius and not accidental. Real chose the old, the mentally tough and left the usual goalscorers out. It was 3 from the back row Vazquez, Nacho and Rudiger that made the difference. Brilliant move and not English at all.
What??đđ
It's literally the opposite đđ€Ł
This is why we don't take most English pundits seriously. Always spewing a bunch of rubbish and excuses when it comes to English teams
History will never remember you for possession or number of corners ,when you loose you are done..end of your story
Yes like Aston Villa won European cup. Don't even remember how the game went just remember Villa winning the trophy.
It's pedigree & game management.
So the best league will have the same winner for the fourth consecutive time and no team in the semi finals of the elite competition. đ€š
