UEFA Champions League 08/09

[Hobo]

Who was that? Vidic? That was a free kick.

[The Future]

That Hulk fella seems to be as good in real life as he is in FM>_>

You talking about the push? the flag had gone up already I think

John O'Shea is awful.

[The Future]

You need O'Shea's and Fletcher in every squad to balance out the Ronaldos and Berbatovs.

He's not as technically gifted as the other players but he does a job whenever he's called upon

[Hobo]

I hope that Macheda guy turns out to be wank. Because he's 17, and just happened to score a useful goal and suddenly he's important

[The Future]

Heh he could be the next Neil Mellor

[IAceI]

Leave him alone, he's aged terribly. He looks about 30.

And Hulk helps sum what I hate about these shirt names now. You're called "Givanildo Vieira de Souza" - use something there. If I was in charge I'd have to resort to a Supernanny method or something "If you can't be trusted to have your names on your shirt properly, then no one gets their names on at all." God

Quid says he never scores a premier league goal again/

[The Future]

Huk is too awesome of a nickname to ignore.

[Crybaby Bunting]

I've heard Macheda's name mentioned at least 30 times already during this broadcast... and that was BEFORE he started doing stretches on the sidelines.

I like how he's scored a great goal... on his début... but does anyone LEGITIMATELY think that he thought it'd go in? He was probably just trying to get a corner out of a risky shot.

[therockbox]

The wankfest was inevitable. In this country it doesn't matter how well you play, if you score a goal then you're the best player to have ever graced a pitch for a few days. Macheda was pretty poor before he scored (although that's excusable given his age), but because he scored a decent, well-timed goal people have got hysterical. The same thing happened with Mellor. There are still idiots out there that think he genuinely could have made it at Liverpool because of the goal he scored against Arsenal, and have airbrushed his dodgy knees and otherwise poor-to-average performances from history.

[Hobo]

Are ITV interviewing SAF at Half Time? Surely he has better things to do?

[METALMAN]

I have been pleasantly surprised by Porto's competitiveness.

[Matt]

Almunia and Gallas have been taken off injured, now lets hope they're medium term injuries so that Villa can overtake Arsenal but they'll be back in time for the Scum/Arse game.

Edit: Hobo, they always do... I've never seen anyone other than SAF interviewed to be honest, but I'm sure they do other managers (or at least assistants) too.

Yeah I've seen Wenger interviewed at half time once, and some League 1 or 2 manager in the FA Cup earlier on this season.

[Matt]

I wonder if Rooney's going to get Shrek on the back of his shirt next year

[METALMAN]

I wonder if Rooney's going to get Shrek on the back of his shirt next year

That's brilliant.

Man Utd are looking better now. Shame. I want Giggs to score a hat-trick and be awesome but for Man Utd to still lose.

[Matt]

Unfortunately Metalman, I don't this game is going to end 5-4

And Rooney needs to learn that just because you go down when you're tackled doesn't mean you automatically get a freekick

[METALMAN]

I like Tevez. Why must he do this to me?

[AJ]

Tevez you beauty.

edit: Knew I'd spoken too soon. Fooking Porto.
