lol pana didn't cam through
no doubt. i heard friday real quick on one of the telecasts i wasnt sure on the date.
i think it will be tough for an english team not to win it. statistically they have a 50% chance. realistically its probably 75%.
id prefer...
barca-playing superb football
bayern-luca
villareal-rossi
chelsea-be nice to see gus win it managing a team half a year, when jose` couldnt in his time.
liverpool, arsenal, man u, porto all bottom. i really dont want any of these teams to win it. i like a lot of liverpools players, just dont want them getting closer to milans amount of titles. i like some arsenal players, but more so they dont deserve to win it imo. man u is just the antichrist to me. porto would be a joke if they won 2 CLs in the 00's.
Finished off by Beckenbauer, Cruijff & Yashin.
I don't know why so many people shit on Porto. Look at their 04 team and see how many are at Chelsea now or playing in Spain and Italy. That was a mad team playing some slick football and in 2009 they have the Incredible Hulk.
Only English team we can beat is Arsenal.
i know. i guess it actually wouldnt be that bad of a thing if they won. provides a break from the usually suspects. but i dont really give them much of a chance.
Since we won't win it I'd like to see Barca win. They only have 2 cups in their history, they need to make up ground. They play the best football to watch of anybody. Their defence is a problem though.
I think most ppl would like to see Barca go as far as possible. they play the most entertaining style of football. but usually those teams never really win.
Porto are a solid team, to think they werent even gonna be in the champs league at the start of the season. now they in the quarters, good for them.
uhh don't deserve it? how do you figure?
next i'd like to touch on a subject a lot of the duesh bags on this site bring up when they say why the US isnt good at football. they claim because the united states's best athletes play other sports that is why we are behind, and that if our best athletes did play soccer we would be sick at it. this is where their lack of comprehension of the game comes in.
goal.com just ranked the top 25 MLS players. not something most of you care about. but it proves my point. the number 1 player on the list was Guillermo Barros Schelotto. now he is no where near the best athlete in the mls. probably on the bottom side in fact. however what seperates him is his touch, vision, and immense soccer knowledge that he possess. that is what the soccer haters in this country dont get. sure athletisms plays a big part, not going to lie. but the zidanes of the world are not the best athletes (again very good athlete but you know what im saying), but they are the most skilled, smartest players there are. thats what really seprates the sport in general. it is much more a mental game than most others. thats part of the beauty, you cannot be some mindless plug but be a sick athlete and expect to earn a paycheck other than in leagues like the mls or other shitty leagues.
rant over. 8:48 am. leave to go to store to pick up beers and start getting shitfaced for st.pattys day before the parade. holla holla holla.
Half Time
Man Utd 1 - 2 LIVERPOOL
that penalty settled the score... FUCK YEAH! C'MON 'POOL!
Well well well if Torres and Stevie G keep it up that way till the end, who knows...
Anyway, feels great to see Man U losing, especially against Livpool.
Poor United.
Damn Aurelio! too bad for vidic. ManU's not gon catch up now.
Wutage will be overdosing right about now
Vidic is a little bitch.
Man Utd 1 - 4 LIVERPOOL.... sorry Alex.
Dossena... hahahahaha... you know how to finish a match off and get 2 goals in 2 games, against 2 of the best domestic teams in the world.
ManU really got hammered this time.
Now all I want to see is Rafa and Fergie's interviews.
It's going to be a great end of the season.
just got back form work so i didnt see the match but I did tape it. i almost got in a fight lol with the chef pool fan at my bar who was rubbing it in past the limit i could cope with lol. cunt.
idk how the fuck we possibly couldve conceded 4.
like, impossible.
we still have a game in hand.
im gutted. it all depends now on the chelsea-city game 2moro.
i just watched the first half taped and we didnt play all that badly, didnt play great but nothing that indicated a 4-1 pisstake.

dinho to pato. tricked the shit out of the goalie, it was a nice.
I am a Man Utd fan (I like Barça & AC Milan too). We got hammered by Liverpool for the first time since years, but I must admit that they desreved to win.
We made a lot of mistakes; especially by Vidic (fist goal) and Evra.
But don't fellow Man Utd fans, we'll bounce back soon.
^we beat you earlier this season aswell.
wutang36, Man Utd chiefs have setup a help line for despondant Man U fans... the number is...
0800 4-1 4-1 4-1
... thankyou, come again.
Klose is injured so our Champions League run is FUCKED.
the big man and the little man are just going to have to step it up.
although that is a big blow.
anyone have thoughts on the 6+5 system they are trying to push through the EU?
They're injured too. That's why we're fucked. We have Podolski and Donovan.
SMH. They let Schlaudraff go this year too.
they arent gonna be fit for the either leg? they still have a couple weeks.
its bull.
They shouldnt be holding back the best players from playing together. Its FIFA's JOB to be increasing the quality of football, not restricting it. Everyone wants to see the best teams, with the best players together, a few peopl jealous of the EPL's success shouldnt be stopping that, they should just adapt better to the new face of the game.
i see both sides of it. i think yea it will decrease the quality of the club game, at least in the beginning.
however on the other side of the coin i feel especially the english would be worried because yea their club success would definatly suffer at first. can you name 24 english players that should be playing in the champions league? i doubt anyone could. because i dont think they exist. its not only the big english clubs, you can even look at the mid levels. boltons, portsmoths, everton, they dont even field that many english players. while almost all italian sides minus inter field usually 50 to 75% of their team being italian.
but at the same time i think there is a reason why england doesnt do well on the international stage and i think this would no doubt help them there.
i guess my opinion is IDK at the point.
the ONLY thing FIFA cares about its the World Cup. Thats where they make their moneys, and keeping national teams relevent and strong is all they focus on.
but no one really gives a shit about their national side anymore in comparison to their club. If you asked any United fan if they prefer England to win the World Cup to United wnning the Champions League again 95% would say United.
FIFA knows this, which is why they are taking these drastic measures aimed at England because they know England is the most powerful football nation in the world right now, and it scares them
