Thats probably one of the best matches I've witnessed in a long time. No one wanted to defend, it was like a basketball match! You attack; we attack. There was great football from some of the best players in the world right now, and I can't wait for the second leg.I do think the winners of the competition will be one of those teams, and its a shame that it wasnt the final. Both teams going forward are just so electric. And looking at Arsenal - I know they're good defensively, and Atltico as well, but sometimes you just can't stop teams like that when they have those attacking qualities.Clinton was speaking on behalf of FreeBets.com, the home of the best UK betting sites You may like 'Liam Rosenior deserved more time at Chelsea' Clinton Morrison's Top Top Column 'Chelsea have issues behind the scenes and Enzo Fernandez could end up costing Liam Rosenior his job. Leaving him out of the team is a big call to make' Clinton Morrison's Top Top Column 'Martinez hair pull red card was terrible' Clinton Morrison's Top Top Column Clinton Morrison: 'John Stones is a Rolls Royce centre-back. Chelsea should sign him'I would have loved to have been a centre-forward in either of those teams. Harry Kane drops deep and plays brilliant passes, but I wouldn't even try to get involved in all of that. I'd just stay in the box and wait for the crosses to be delivered to me! All that aside, there was so much beauty and quality on show. That's why we love the beautiful game.Moving on now, and the big breaking news this week concerned John Stones announcing hes leaving Manchester City. He's won everything there and could still win the Premier League and FA Cup again this season.Injuries have caught up with him in the last few years, and theyve now got the likes of Abdukodir Khusanov and Marc Guhi, so he's not going to be a regular starter. But if he's fit, I think he'll start for England this summer because I hear that Thomas Tuchel loves him.He's been a great servant to Man City and is a Rolls Royce of a centre-back. I still think he could do a job for a Premier League team. If I were Chelsea I'd go and get John Stones - they need that experience at the back.Get FourFourTwo NewsletterThe best features, fun and footballing quizzes, straight to your inbox every week.Contact me with news and offers from other Future brandsReceive email from us on behalf of our trusted partners or sponsorsBy submitting your information you agree to the Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy and are aged 16 or over.Another one of the big talking points this week concerned referees being able to give red cards for players covering their mouths during confrontations at the World Cup. I understand thats it all come from the Vincius Jnior incident. But getting a red card for covering your mouth? I think that's a bit over the top. When I was playing, you just spoke freely and there was no need to cover your mouth.But the fact it comes down to the referees discretion makes its a recipe for disaster. Because one game someone does it and gets sent off, whereas the next game someone else does the exact same thing and doesn't. You can't have that inconsistency at a World Cup. You send someone off in a huge game and they might not qualify or lose a final due to a decision like that. If you want to experiment with rules, do it beforehand, not at a major tournament.Looking ahead to what might happen next season now, and there are reports suggesting Jos Mourinho could return to Real Madrid. Theyve got some top players who want the freedom to play, and you dont really need to coach them too much. He's won so many trophies, and is respected by so many players. So, if Jos Mourinho is available, why would you not take him?

You can say he's outdated, but he's a winner, and at a club like Real Madrid youre expected to win things. It looks like they're not going to win anything this season, so they need a manager to go in and shake things up. He could be the perfect fit.It'd be interesting to see how he's received by the players and the fans, but Jos Mourinho is a top manager.Theres also plenty of talk about what might happen at Manchester United this summer, and whether Michael Carrick gets the job long term. Hes come in, given the players confidence and played a formation that suits the group. It's not rocket science he hasn't signed anyone.Ruben Amorim could have done that, but he was stubborn. He was playing Manuel Ugarte ahead of Kobbie Mainoo, which I think is ludicrous Mainoo came into that team and he's been outstanding. He was playing Bruno Fernandes as one of two holding midfielders when Bruno is probably one of the best number tens in the Premier League or in Europe. It was all bonkers to me.But credit to Michael Carrick it was a hard job. Man United fans didn't think they'd get where they are, and Champions League football is almost secured for them. There was a sticky spell a couple of weeks ago, but he went to Chelsea and beat them 1-0 without any recognised centre-halves apart from young Ayden Heaven, who was outstanding. And they held on the other night against Brentford, so he's getting results.He should get the job. But I know United will be speaking to other managers in the summer. Personally, if I'd done what Michael Carrick has done, I'd be very disappointed if I didn't get it. I understand people's reservations like what happened with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer when he was interim, got the job, and it didn't work out. But if you're a young English manager and you don't get the job after performing that well, you think, what's the point? He deserves the opportunity.TOPICSJohn StonesManchester CityChelseaPremier LeagueClinton MorrisonColumnistClinton Morrison is a former international striker and prominent sports broadcaster best known for his two successful spells at Crystal Palace, where he scored over 100 goals.
