It feels like just yesterday Kai Havertz slotted the decisive goal against Manchester City that saw Chelsea be crowned champions of Europe. However, it's been three and a half months and the champions league made its dramatic return this week. It was a goalfest at the 'Empty-had' stadium where Man City slotted in six goals. While Vishnu had lots to be happy about it was the same old story in the Barcelona camp. Playing at home but without key players due to injury Bayern Munich eased past Barca who still seem to have not come to terms with Messi's departure.
The highlight of this week's off-field drama was the release of FIFA 22 player ratings. As always there were some suprises and absurd facts but there was nothing but a smile on Varun's face when we discussed how Messi continues to remain the highest overall rated player.
