Cliff Englewood Posted April 9, 2009 Report Posted April 9, 2009 John Terry suspended for the next match! ......... and Javier Mascherano should be back for Liverpool which will make a big difference. Quote
B. Goren. Posted April 10, 2009 Report Posted April 10, 2009 Man United/Porto match was a thriller! Can't wait to see the next leg of this one. I had higher expectations from Man United. Also from Manchester City I had higher expectations. Hamburg beats Manchester City 3-1 in UEFA Cup. Quote
JohnJ Posted April 10, 2009 Report Posted April 10, 2009 Probably Barcelona Vs. Chelsea at the semi final, sounds promising... Oh ye of little faith, don't think it's cut and dry yet for Chelski, wait until after the weekend games to see who's still available for Tuesday. Chelsea were so superior that it is difficult to see any way back for Liverpool. They were made to look very ordinary and it will be interesting to see how they respond in the premier league. Quote

Agreed but I think a lot of that was down to Lucas in midfield, Javier Mascherano makes such a difference it's like having an extra player. An early goal on Tuesday will make all the difference, for whoever gets it that is. :cool: Edited April 10, 2009 by Cliff Englewood Quote
Cliff Englewood Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 So what about the Chelski/Liverpool tie now, considering the weekends results. Quote
Van Basten II Posted April 12, 2009 Author Report Posted April 12, 2009 Gotta say, the second legs except for Villareal-Arsenal could all very well be foregone conclusions. Quote

Van Basten II Posted April 14, 2009 Author Report Posted April 14, 2009 Liverpool just scored on a free kick that looked like more a bad approach shot at the Masters. Quote
Van Basten II Posted April 14, 2009 Author Report Posted April 14, 2009 Holly shit, pk converted now 3-3 only difference now is the away goals. Quote
Van Basten II Posted April 14, 2009 Author Report Posted April 14, 2009 Well it was a lot more entertaining than i expected and the Chelsea fans wished. Quote
Cliff Englewood Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 So it was all over then was it, fuckin' hell I'll have to stop watching football or start smoking again. It's just too much work being a fan. Quote
Van Basten II Posted April 14, 2009 Author Report Posted April 14, 2009 That is why games are played on the pitch not discussed by pundits, the day i will figure out most of the time what happens next, i'll stop watching. Quote
B. Goren. Posted April 15, 2009 Report Posted April 15, 2009 It was an amazing game. I wonder why Guus Hiddink refuses to stay in the premier league for the next season. Quote

Stress isn't a factor for Guus, it's because he already has too many other commitments, one of which is the Russian national team. Edited April 15, 2009 by J.A.W. Quote

Stress isn't a factor for Guus, it's because he already has too many other commitments, one of which is the Russian national team. I should have added some smileys. I think it's becasue he's very very smart, the Chelsea squad, despite last night's result, needs some fresh blood, not just a few big name/big money signings. There are quite a few players there who are past their best or not really that good anyway. Without another massive splurge by Roman, he would always be failing to live up to the expectations, however after saying that, if they win something this year there will be a lot of pressure on the Chelski Board to keep him so don't rule it out.

No matter what the reason is, Guus Hidink is someone I would like to see on the lines next season. His name was mentioned more than one time as one of the candidate to replace Mr. Ferguson (if he ever retires). Edited April 15, 2009 by B. Goren. Quote

No doubt he's a great Manager, his record proves that, but he's got quite a nice number at the moment with Russia and I doubt he wants the work load at this stage, if he did he could probably go to any club in the world. Very lucky win for United.................... again. Quote
JohnJ Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 Very lucky win for United.................... again. Have to disagree there, perhaps a little Liverpool bias showing . United thoroughly deserved to win and Porto never really troubled them. Quote

United thoroughly deserved to win and Porto never really troubled them. Really, one goal in the 6th minute away and conceding 2 at home??? Not sure about that, maybe a bit of Man U bias on your part there. :D I was expecting a bit more from Porto though considering how good they were in the first leg. Liverpool did not deserve to go through, simple as that. Edited April 16, 2009 by Cliff Englewood Quote
Cliff Englewood Posted April 21, 2009 Report Posted April 21, 2009 Liverpool 4 - Arsenal 4, wtf, a maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad game. :crazy: Quote
B. Goren. Posted April 22, 2009 Report Posted April 22, 2009 Arshavin is a bad motherf*cker! Yossi Benayoun was great!!! Quote
Cliff Englewood Posted April 22, 2009 Report Posted April 22, 2009 (edited) Arshavin is a bad motherf*cker! That's almost the exact phrase I was using last night, except there was no "bad" there, it was more "Arshavin you ...." "total", "complete", "absolute" etc, etc. Yossi Benayoun was great!!! Agreed, he has been fantastic in the last few months and althought he'll perhaps never win any of the top awards, I don't think he gets the credit or game time he deserves. He is way above the average in the Premiership. Edited April 22, 2009 by Cliff Englewood Quote
Cliff Englewood Posted April 22, 2009 Report Posted April 22, 2009 Yossi fighting for the cause... Quote
