^ Reading gave us a scare, so I'd be afraid if I were you

That's the All-Stars team as it is at the minute. I wonder who the other 4 will be.

utd won!!! even though they were the second best team.. lucky!

Well that match said it all. Just as much as we will win the league, West Ham are destined to be relegated. Went into the 2nd half with a 2-0 lead, Spurs go and win the match 4-3, with the winning goal scored in the 95th minute. Unbelieveable match which shows how cruel football can be.

yeah... reminds me of the european cup final we had with bayern munich

^ That was amazing. I couldn't sleep after that match digesting what happened.

Back to sat's match. I was happy we won, but unsure now on how the race for the title will unfold. Though i'm glad we don't play chelsea immediately as scholes will be back by then. I hope rooney as well.

On the other hand, i'm not afraid of our team not being able to score. The greatness of Man U lies in their ability to score from anywhere. Who needs a striker when our midfielders are getting double digits in goals. And our 2 full backs are heading in timely goals.

damn Juninho is really good *_* he must be my new favorite player now.
I don't understand why he is in the A-team of Brazil.

Oh man, what a crazy night and one I'm sure will cause UEFA more headaches:

- Barcelona beat Liverpool but the scousers win on aggregate so at least there will be a new name on the trophy.

- Chelsea went through a rubbish 1st half to win through luck, apparently, with 2-1. Of course Mourinho will see no problem in that when his own team wins even through a poor performance, but it's just jolly unfair when someone else does it.

- Lyon are out!! In the biggest shocker for me, Roma beat Lyon 2-0. Fair play to Roma though, their second goal was an absolute peach. But controversy struck when Juninho went for a high, and almost certainly deliberate tackle. Then Fred, cowardly struck a player in the face with his elbow and didn't even get a booking.

- But the craziest event of the night was Valencia v Inter. Valencia got through, but when they started celebrating, Inter started causing a huge fight with Valencia. David Navarro rushed onto the pitch and struck an Inter player in the face which then evolved into a kiss chase between the Spaniard and the Italians.

What happened after Valencia vs Inter was crazy indeed. It's saddening to see stuff like that. Good game though! I'm biased, but I think Inter deserved a win there. Nice to see Matrix making a good game, and from what I saw he didn't even participate in the chaos after the game, rather the opposite, he shook hands and thanked the Valencia players. It doesn't really surprise me though. He is one of those players that will do crazy shit during a game, whatever it takes to win, but he leaves it there.

Lyon vs Roma sure was exciting too. Lyon weren't that far away a couple of times. The elbow however was nasty.. real nasty. Only Matrix should be able to get away with stuff like that.

I'm looking forward for tomorrows matches. Man Utd will walk through them french. The other matches might very well be slightly more even.

my my players these days are getting dirtier arent they?
i think soon, even fights are going to be common if UEFA doesnt do something soon

Wow, what a night...it can never be easy can it? Liverpool always feel tehy have to make things that bit more "interesting" for you.

pokki · « **Reply #434 on:** March 07, 2007, 04:47:11 PM »

haha but one day, it will not be that interesting if liverpool needs to win, and they played really only for the other team to score at the end....

redux · « **Reply #435 on:** March 07, 2007, 04:55:01 PM »

Y'know it's funny you should say that...

BakHamNoi · « **Reply #436 on:** March 07, 2007, 05:46:16 PM »

LOL at the fight in Inter vs. Valence match.

And Ferguson's behavior is starting to get on my nerves.

Sev · « **Reply #437 on:** March 07, 2007, 11:01:41 PM »

Henke is God! Unexciting match however. But Utd surely walked through them french like I said. Not much of a match.
