I heard the funniest statement yesterday. Ryan Giggs for Man U, quotes this: "to say Chelsea is 15 points ahead does not mean Chelsea is better than us. We are actually better. The only reason they are winning the Premiership is that all we can do is draw against teams we should be beating." Did that make any sense?

That is typical Man U and what makes me ABU, - their arrogance is breathtaking. They cannot stomach the fact that they are third rate, when they go down they always get physical as Scholes antics typified last week, and Fergie always strarts whining about and putting pressure on referees. Today he said the only way Man U would get a penalty was if one of their players was shot. By all accounts they should have had a penalty agianst Newcastle Utd, but that's football - it goes both ways.

Gary Neville Otherwise OK. Surprised Rooney didn't make the line up though.

Yeah i saw that. At least there is a Liverpool man on the team even if he isn't going to be a Liverpool man for very much longer.
How did Neville make the team? Surely there is someone better thatn him.
Andy Johnson deserves it. He has scored almost everyone of Palace's goals and they don't score that many.

I thought he was Liverpool's team!!

 

[J.A.B.]

yeah right, Liverpool's CL hopes rest on the shoulders of one man: LUIS GARCIA. he is a sensation

 

[J.A.B.]

ok, here is my idea of Champions League team of the year

GK- Dida
RB- Cafu
RCB- Alex
LCB- Terry
LB- Carvalho
RWM- Luis Garcia
RAM- Ballack
LAM- Lampard
LWM- Ronaldinho
RS- Schevchenko
LS- Drogba (maybe Adriano???)

Drogba i wouldn't even play him on the Chelsea team. The man cannot score unless the ball is on the crossline, with the goalie outside the 18 yard box. i am hoping he does much better next season. I would put Cech in goals though. And what about Robben - there is aman who lights up any game!

 

[Ezekiel]

Robben hasn't played much in the Champions League because of his injuries.

Stephen Gerrard isn't the whole Liverpool side. In fact, i like Xabi Alsonso or Luis Garcia better than him.

I think Drogba kicks. get it? he plays soccer so he kicks? I know it was corny. Anyway i think he is he is really good but i would go for Adriano for the striker.

 

[J.A.B.]

Robben has been virtually non existent in the CL. but drogba, i put him there because he is a truly great striker. does he score great goals? no. but i have never seen a better player this year to set up his teammates in scoring positions, and is the best headerer. as for Cech, he allowed five (four ACTUALLY, i dont count the cheesy Ballack penalty in the first leg) goals against Bayern Munich, and four against Barca. Dida hasnt allowed a single goal in the knockout rounds.

The San Jose Eathquakes.

Earthquakes huh? I am a Chicago Fire man myself in the MLS. They haven't had a bad season until the last two games.

I am a Fire fan in the MLS as well. They have been doing pretty good lately.

 

[Squire Robertsson]

Who says all we can talk about is the EPL.

 

[4His_glory]

Thats right! I know the MLS is looked down upon by the rest of the world, but hey it is the start of soccer gainning popularity in the US, it does provide some interesting games, and it has improved the US national team- somthing that was noticable in the last World Cup. (even though the rest of the world thinks the US team doing as well as they did was a fluke)
