Well at least we don't get our opinions from the [iTiempos Alegres[/i, you Spanish wannabe.

| Interesting to see the papers getting excited about Wazza saying he hates Liverpool, as if we didn't already know.

Well, AC Milan are already out, but if we finish the job next week, we shouldn't be too scared of anyone left in the competition.

Indeed. We look good in Europe. Probably because European teams let us play football, and because we can play on the break - always useful away from home in Europe. If De Jong and Bonjovi were eligible for the rest of the tournament, I would be much more confident.
RE Aalborg: I think it will be tough next week but I do fancy us to score, thus Aalborg wil need to score 4. We did well last night considering we were missing De Jong and Bojinov (both not registered), while Kompany, Petrov, Bellamy and Sturridge are injured.
Some of the stuff produced by Ireland and Robinho last was phenomenal. Ireland has gone from annoying and inconsistent, to one of the best midfielders in the PL this season. Highlight of the football season for me.
It disappoints me that people get excited by one-trick ponies like Ashley Young but won't even mention the likes of Ireland. The lad has a great engine, very good tackler, has vision, a great touch, good passer and is scoring goals. He also performs well in games against the better teams - arguably MOM at Old Trafford last season.The press though get all excited by Young after he dribbles past the happless Stoke full-back and nutmegs Scott Carson.

Agreed. We also seem to have learnt to be able to play sensibly and rely on countering (well, at least we managed last night). Very pleasing not to concede – which would have been typically City.
I also don't think it's any coincidence that Richards and Dunne have finally started showing some form – since the arrival of Given. We're not solid at the back yet, but we are beginning to show some more stability.

Agreed.

Ireland has been a revelation this term – not least because he's managed such consistency. And some of the tricks and flicks last night were an absolute delight.
Quote: Enfield Exile "AaB are having a bit of a poo season TBF, you should easily do them'"
Well, we've already disposed of the team that is top of the Danish league.
Quote: Enfield Exile "... although should have been a penalty for that awful challenge on Robinhio'"
Sparky's comment afterwards was rather funny: he said that the ref had obviously been too mesmerised by the quickness of Robinho's feet to actually consider the foul.
The Other Half, who is not a football fan, even came out with something between a guffaw and a sheer whoop at those six step-overs.

The good thing about me is that I have a mind of my own, and don't just project the knee-jerk opinion of Rupert Murdoch, or any relevant media mogul.
A few on her ought to try it sometime, though I'm not sure they have the mental capacity.

It appears that Hughes has got his message across to the players, judging by our last 4 or 5 performances. We now have some steel and resolve.
Quote: Mintball "Very pleasing not to concede – which would have been typically City.'"
I was waiting for the Aalborg goal.
Quote: Mintball "I also don't think it's any coincidence that Richards and Dunne have finally started showing some form – since the arrival of Given. We're not solid at the back yet, but we are beginning to show some more stability.'"
Richards had a good game last night. His first in a while. He looked strong, fit and looked to have a bit more pace in him. I am convinced that he has been carrying an injury all season.
Quote: Mintball "Ireland has been a revelation this term – not least because he's managed such consistency. And some of the tricks and flicks last night were an absolute delight.'"
He's become my favourite player. Thankfully we now have plenty of money. If we were struggling financially, we would be fending off suitors or even considering selling him to pay off debts.
A Spurs fan told me the other day, and he was being serious, that Stephen Ireland is no better than Jamie O'Hara. I obviously laughed at him and called him a typically delusional Spurs fan.
Quote: Mintball "Well, we've already disposed of the team that is top of the Danish league.'"
Just to add to that....the Danes had an appalling start to the season. However, they have been unbeaten for 16 games, drew with United and Celtic away from home, and beaten Celtic in Denmark and hammered Deportivo home and away. Granted there are better teams, but there are far worse.
Quote: Mintball "Sparky's comment afterwards was rather funny
Funniest moment of the game. It's about as funny as football gets.
I have to say, I like Hughes. I think he's doing a grand job at the moment. I like his calm assurance, and his ability to spot a player. Everything he has promised, has come true- we will be better in the second half of the season (check), Given will help to add some leadership and stability to the back four (check) and Bellamy will improve our team (check).

You're right. Sorry.
Have you got Sambora as well, to keep him company? You know how these things work.
The step-over thing was like the Ronaldo cartoon posted on here a couple of months back.
