Ever since Australia’s untimely exit from the 2006 WC (yes, I’m still harping on about that incident!), I’ve had an insatiable hatred for all teams Italian, so I really didn’t care that Juve took the lead last night and then in true German style, had their arse’s carved out of their bodies and handed to [...]
As the final matchday approaches, we can only be left to assume one thing… my match predictions are already on their way to football purgatory! As most of the groups in tonight’s matches have been decided, teams that have qualified will more than likely be putting out second / third string teams, which should theoretically [...]
Portuguese man-o-sex Cristiano Ronaldo made his long awaited return to the Real Madrid team last night, which is quite exciting given the biggest match of the Spanish calendar, the ‘El Classico’, takes place this weekend. And even though he didn’t really contribute much in this game and won’t be match fit for the weekend, it’ll [...]
As expected Porto made Chelsea work hard for the win last night and yet again that arsey bastard Nicolas Anelka delivered the goods with the only goal of the game. Shiiit, I don’t mind it when Chelsea win, heck I don’t even mind when they play like a pack of morons and only just scrape [...]
Group C is another group ready to be blown wide open tonight. Both AC Milan and Real Madrid have turned a corner in recent weeks and have started playing to their respective potential, with Marseille a further point behind also knocking on the qualification door. Seriously though, if the Frenchies don’t come out kicking and [...]
Well it’s official… Liverpool have hit a new low point. I mean I’d been “suggesting” it, but I didn’t actually think they would be playing in the Europa League. Goes to show, if you put your mind to something, sooner or later it’ll actually happen. Well guys, good luck and here’s hoping you can do [...]
With only two group matchdays left in the Champions League, I’m still scratching my head about why Group F is as wide open and ready for the picking as your sister was last night dude… but that’s a story for another day. In fact, by now you would have expected that both Inter and Barca [...]
You haven’t felt cold till your nuts have shrivelled back up inside you or till you’ve been to frikin freezing Russia… or both, which are the conditions Barcelona face on their travels tonight. However, as much as I can see Rubin’s Cousin putting up a fight in front of a home crowd, I seriously think [...]
The thing I love most about the Champions League is the weird and unpredictable score lines you get right across the continent. I also love it when a manager makes a substitution and within minutes of that player stepping onto the field, he scores a cracker to put his team ahead. And what’s even better [...]
AC Milan seem to have their mojo back as they prepare to host Real Madrid in this crucial UCL match. Will they be as lucky as last matchday?… I don’t think so, but I do think both teams will have to settle for a share of the points and that can’t really be a good [...]
After watching highlights of the match, I had this whole spiel about Chelsea’s strength and experience in Europe and Atletico’s sheer lack of anything really, but instead I’m going to sit here with Blues fat-man Branislav Ivanovic and over a bucket of fried chicken discuss how inappropriate it is to claim a goal you didn’t [...]
Until midway through the second half, I couldn’t understand how an attack of Ronaldinho, Seedorf, Pato and Inzaghi had only managed three shots at goal and none were on target! Then out of nothing and as unexpected as Iker Casillas’ goal keeping errors, Andear Pirlo snuck in a long range effort to put the Italians [...]
The early match of the night saw a lively CSKA (coached by none other than Spurs and Real Madrid castaway Juande Ramos) host a dour and uninterested Manchester United, who once again left it very late in the game to score. Man, I’m so over this United mob and their poor excuse for grinding out [...]
When you become complacent, you give up your guard and when you give up your guard, you get knocked the f**k out! POW! Last night, AZ’s equalising volley came courtesy of some ‘route 1′ football and an unmarked header into the path of the on coming Mendes da Silva, whose knockout strike would have even [...]
I predict: FC Girondins de Bordeaux 1 v 1 FC Bayern München Juventus 2 v 0 Maccabi Haifa FC PFC CSKA Moskva 1 v 2 Manchester United FC VfL Wolfsburg 2 v 3 Beşiktaş JK Real Madrid CF 3 v 1 AC Milan FC Zürich 2 v 2 Olympique de Marseille FC Porto 1 v [...]
