I hate Ashley Cole.

Ricardo Rocha is available on a free transfer. What the hell happened to him at Spurs? I remember him being class in the Champions League for Benfica.

Inter, could pull a historic mauling today. Should really go for it.

We dismantled them at times but our finishing was very very poor today. We got rather lucky at the end with the Carr mistake. On a negative not (for us anyway) King, Modric, and Defoe all taken off injured. Doesn't look good for any of them. Well that's very refreshing to hear.

Fuck off Liverpool, fuck off Gerrard.

Tamir Cohen

Bilyaletdinov has played most of his career in the centre of midfield by the way, wont replace Pienaar on the wing.

Good enough draw.

Even if we did, I can't see him being anywhere near match fit. Good point, I didn't really think about that.

We should really push through a deal for Lovenkrands for Monday.

Don't even get a shootout out of this shit.

Worst. Game. Ever.

What a shit game.

To say he's flopped at Inter is calling the contest before it's over. This is his second season. He got 6 months in Milan before being shipped to Chelsea, he's been horrendously man managed much like he was with that t*** Rjikard. If he could get a manager that showed confidence in him and just let him play his game like Jesualdo Ferriera. He looked good against Bari, then Mourinho in his infinite Wisdom goes and puts Suazo in, another player he signed then dumped on another side 6 months after joining. Give him 5-7 games in the team on the left wing, with no pressure and he'll finally settle. And to those who say "Oh it's just cos the Portugese league is so s***" Two quick questions i'd like answering. How did Diego and Luis Fabiano fail in this "Easy league" but now went on to much bigger things. How do you explain Quaresma's brilliant performances in The Champions League? A competition Zlatan has failed to score in, he was nothing short of brilliant against Chelsea. I'm not saying he's a bad player, he's just not good enough for Inter. Maybe he can prove the doubters wrong if he was given the chance, but it seems strange that two of the most successful managers in recent years have dropped him because they clearly don't rate him as good enough. Also, the Portuguese League is substandard, to argue otherwise is ridiculous. It's like Scotland only with 3 big clubs, the rest being far below their level, and even then only Porto seem to be able to ever compete in Europe. It's clear that he excells in Portugal because he's alot better than the standard of opposition he is against. He shone for Porto in Europe on accasions, I'd agree with that, but he never really showed enough to back up claims that he is good enough for the likes of Inter, Barca etc.

Exactly, he looks brilliant playing in Portugal yet flops at both Barca and Inter. Is it a coincidence or is the Portuguese Liga just making him look far better than he actually is. He's all style and no substance tbh, like Ronaldo but minus the goals, assists, and general end product.

Quaresma was stupidly overrated. Has twice flopped when making the move to big clubs and should just settle into his natural level.

Hopefully this isn't for sure, if it is mind, we absolutely must sign atleast 3 players between now and the end of the transfer window. Not gonna happen like.

That's fucking brilliant

Shakhtar's Dmytro Chygrynsky all but signed for Barca, will play his last game for Shakhtar against Barca tomorrow. Fee looks to be around €25m, mega money, but from what I've seen of him he has all the attributes to be a top centre half and is still only 22.

Guy next to me after their third goal, "Fuck this, this is why I didn't renew my season ticket" and then subsequently left the stadium with his 2 mates.

That was brilliant

Oh dear

Linky not working for me

What a bunch of morons.

Looking forward to this actually, will be nice to see how our youngsters cope in a competitive fixture. Won't be bothered if we lose either, this cup is not important for us.
