Yes... good stuff.

 

PS: great tackle by the security bloke.

last ditch stuff there. get him in the newcastle side!

Evra is aiming for the Film Actors Guild

 

F.A.G

 

Good player but that is just wrong.

to be fair, it was a solid boot to the face.

i'm glad they brought henry on with enough time to actually make an impact. i think he will.

nani should have scored there probably

i know OT is usually pretty dead, but sounds incredible tonight.

 

thats because they got an early goal i think.

well it sounded just as good before the goal i think

i know OT is usually pretty dead, but sounds incredible tonight.

just some unbelievable football. spine-tingling. its like a combination of arsenal's unbelievable passing with forwards that can actually finish brilliantly. unreal.

Barcelona cant even beat Betis.

 

Just like Man Utd couldn't even win away at Bolton, you mean?

barca has what, 1 win in 7? not exactly shining right now, especially without messi and ronaldinho

Thank f*** these c***s wont beat Barca

no way. barca is in terrible form, man u is likely to crush them sadly. tevez isn't even playing today, and they are on the road in rome. The CL is clearly Man u's to lose this year.

hes got it all now, the tricks, the power, the brilliant shots, the headers, even the courage. he may still dive every now and then (which would seem to be the opposite of being brave or a warrior or anything), but somehow when hes really playing, hes got those qualities that people always make deride him for not having him.

carroll on for owen, btw.

unbelievable cheek by ronaldo. when things are going well, they are really going well.

Geremi's freekicks have been pretty firece today tbh!

but still only getting it past the first man rarely.

but can't complain today!

i loved kev's water bottle celebration

i cant believe i'm saying this, but we do look much more likely to score if it will be anyone. doesn't mean it will actually be anyone, but come on, make it happen!

can we get a winger in there please: martins, barton, butt and geremi as a midfield is not going to get any service in at all to whoever is pretending to play forward. please god, just one goal, is that too much to ask for?

haha Cruz

PKs in Porto/Schalke

he shoulda won the penalty for sure, but won the ball back, and then a great rocket goal. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Dempsey seems good.

agreed. he's getting better all the time. has a great first touch, saw that today a few times. we could use an attacking central midfielder like him.

was a great free kick by Bullard.  Fulham are really too talented to go down, if only they stop giving up late goals.

Does anyone think they will be talking about Ronaldo in 20-30 years time like people talk about Pele and Maradonna?

 

Dont know about that but he's definatly better than a certain Brazilian playing in Italy.

 

At the same age? Not a f****** chance.

 

Really? I think it you mean Ronaldo btw? How many goals did Ronaldo score when he was C.Ronaldo's age? Im not saying he WASNT better, but to say he wouldnt stand a chance is abit much, C.Ronaldo could well score more goals that Ronaldo did in the season he was CR's age, and considering CR is a wide midfielder and Ronaldo is a striker, that is pretty pretty special.

 

Ronaldo was younger than C.Ronaldo. when he scored 39 goals in 44 games in one season for Barcelona.

 

Fair point, but C.Ronaldo has 27 in something like 21, could easily beat 39 with the form he is in. Its great for us that we can have this debate now tbh, could never get bored of seeing this kind of player about

 

It's not even a debate tbf.

 

No player since that period has reached the heights Ronaldo did for those couple of seasons, nobody has shown they are that good. Not even Zidane, not even Rivaldo nor Ronaldinho and many others.

one point is that ronaldo is a winger, not technically a striker. Not only does he score that ridiculous amount of goals as a winger, look at his assists, he sets up so many more (partly a result of having a good striker like rooney to score on his nice passes). Hard to compare across different times, and across different leagues, and across different positions, but if you asked me which player I would rather build my team around, C. Ronaldo now or Ronaldo at the same age, I would seriously consider C. Ronaldo now. Forget who's "better", just being able to say that much is amazing.

If N'Zogbia starts the second half at left-back then questions have to be asked of Keegan. He is getting raped.

who would you prefer to play left back? edgar? there's no one on the bench, and no one else on the field, who can play the position. so much of the team is out, the team is threadbare. can't really blame them or keegan for this, there's just no one available to do what is needed to have a shot at this game. just gotta get some players in and move on to saturday, when there's a real shot with what we have now.

so with the defence we have out there, we're going to need to score a bunch to have a shot at a draw. if you add up all the goals we've scored in the last couple of months, and transferred them all in this game, we might have a fighting chance. so basically...we're fucked

not a premier league quality pitch. ball taking very random bobbles. of course everytime it bobbles, the only person it seems to trouble is bramble.
