One last thing. Joe Cole - **** off. Anywhere you like. It'd be funny if Man Utd or Liverpool signed you, because you're not good enough. I don't believe their interest is anything other than a ploy to try and con us to keep you. If Chelsea fall for that then they're worse than the League 2 defenders who would fall for your worthless stepovers.

Quote: Paddy Evra "I thought it was pretty harsh decision. But tonight, Inter looked really good. Sneijder especially. I don't want them in the next round.'"


TBH the game was set up for Sneijder. Defend with defiance and then try and work something on the break. They had the players to do it and they did it well.

Quote: Paddy Evra "Does that mean Jose has still not lost at Stamford Bridge?'"


We got done by Barca at SB when the ref sent off the left back in the first 20 minutes.

I think we lost a Carling Cup game on penalties, but Jose was insistant that the 120 minute result of a draw was the one which should be on his record. :CROWN: [color=#4000FF:3cyxr5nr]RLFans.com Soccer Prediction League Champion 2011/2012[/color:3cyxr5nr] :CROWN: [url=http://www.christie.nhs.uk/the-christie-charity/donate.aspx:3cyxr5nr]The Christie - please donate[/url:3cyxr5nr] [url=http://www.popbitch.com/home/2009/10/05/red-pepper-news:3cyxr5nr]Greatest headline ever?[/url:3cyxr5nr]:20672.jpg

After watching the game at the Sanchez Pizjuan toneet you'd have to be happy if you landed CSKA in the next round.

Knowing our luck, we'll get CSKA, but be away the Wednesday before we play Chelski in the League decider.

Hopefully, the defeat tonight will deflate their confidence and f*ck them up for a week or two.

CSKA looked flat and Palop was cringeworthily at fault for the eventual winner. Zokora was the only standout player for Sevilla and now the only Spanish team left in the competition is Barça who play tomorrow night. Viva La Liga!

The only upside of going out tonight is that is should concentrate our minds on the league. We can use this and really kick on. TBH I saw the potential fixture list if we were to stay in the CL and it was frightening, now it won't be anywhere near as bad.

But if I was to guess over the reaction of this side, my guess certainly isn't positive.

I watched the last ten minutes of the game again.

The ref gave a foul against Drogba when he won the ball for an aerial challenge. Can't for the life of me work out what Drogba had done wrong.

The incident where JT got booked. He had the ball and was barged into by the Inter player. JT went down because of the collision and tripped the Inter player because otherwise Inter would have a clear break. If JT hadn't been fouled then he'd have 100% deserved the yellow, but again I cannot work out why the ref hasn't given us the free kick for the initial foul in the first place.

Same thing for the Drogba sending off. Chelsea are attacking down the left, Drogba's in the middle of the box, waiting for a possible cross. Thiago Motta barges right into the back of Drogba, Motta then falls to the floor and Drogba possibly steps on his foot. The ref then blows up, awards Inter the free kick and sends Drogba off. If Drogba has stamped on the Inter player's foot then he deserves the red card, but I'm puzzled that if the ref has seen the incident clearly enough to red card Drogba, he hasn't seen Motta barging into Drogba in the first place.

Good appointment. A Championship manager every day of the week. Forward thinking by the Hull City board.

Hope Inter are drawn against Arsenal in the next round. Wenger has never beaten Mourinho.

Want that to be the final TBH, with Inter winning.

Want Arsenal to be humiliated by Inter. Even if they aren't humiliated, I want them out of the CL as soon as possible.

They got lucky last time with Porto. CSKA are the weakest team left in (should Olympiakos go out) and unless they get the Russians I think your wish will come true.
Living in Catalonia, Barça winning in the Bernabeu would obviously have its benefits (eg free beer and a day off work).

Quote: MrPhilb "Quite correct, Wayne Rooney is the complete player'"


Define; complete.

I'd say Torres is quicker, has better movement, is a better finisher, is a better 1v1 dribbler and I believe he leads the line on his own better. Who's stronger is a kinda strange debate, Wayne is stronger on the ball but I believe Torres is strong when it comes to aerially challenging defenders. Wayne may well help back in the defence, but Torres is no slouch and I don't consider that a vital aspect of a centre forward. Wayne's passing and involvement in play is better, he's more versatile and his new found consistency is hard to match, but in terms of attributes a centre forward needs, I still feel Torres is stronger. Having the ability to play out wide and help out in defence doesn't make him a better player, the best striker of my generation - Ronaldo - never had these attributes but it never stopped him being the dog's nuts.

As I said, if Torres' past two seasons hadn't been hampered by consistent injuries, I believe he'd have fully established himself as the best out and out striker in the world. I know it'll be funny coming from a Liverpool fan, but if next year (always next year etc.) he can stay injury-free then I'd back him to finish the league's top scorer and probably Europe's, even if he leaves us.

[img]//www.cantstopthebleeding.com/img/malcolm_glazer.jpg[/img] Thank you, Malc:



Makes you wonder why clubs are, appaerently, willing to pay over £30m for Sergio Aguero, but if clubs were willing to part with about half of that last summer, they could have signed Sneijder.

I know they are not similar players but smeone like teh Dutchman could make, for example, us into a top 4 team. Aguero would be a risk.


As for Robbie Rotten's post - as much as I like Rooney as a footballer, I'd agree with your post. If I could choose any centre-forward in the world at this moment, it would be Torres
