Lol. Don't blame it all on Beckham ( I take it you must really hate the guy). The turning point was when Antonini was injured and an awful Favalli came on. Hunterlaar did fuck all also. Dida could've done better with the first goal.

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^yes thats true. But they had no other option but to play them really. Favalli is their back up left back. I think Zambrotta is injured and so is Jankulovski. Borriello is injured so Huntelaar had to start. Abbiati has a long term injury so Dida is first choice.

But Beckham is the one playing while Seedorf and Gattuso are on the bench.Thats what pisses me off. two far greater players than him. Beckham was brought back by Galliani to sell shirts. thats why he gets picked. its a disgrace to a club like that. They also had Flamini as an option

 

[Flipmo]

How does everyone feel about Ambrosini? Past it? Or still has juice in him?

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^i never rated him that highly tbh although he wasnt too bad last night.

A bigger disgrace is their pansying around when trying to buy fullbacks in the summer. They had chances to buy top quality fullbacks but didn't. It's more of a disgrace they sign players like Mancini rather than fix their problems at the back or buy another goalkeeper.

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^yea what they did with Cissokho was a disgrace but i thought Bonera did ok and so did Antonini until he went off.

Apparantly Berlusconi was angry that Mancini was signed. He seems to have little say in the club these days. Galliani runs the show now and he is a total idiot.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Cissokho played amazing last night also. Just proves AC Milan are becoming a joke.

AC Milan need probably 3-4 players to be awesome. 1 or 2 fullbacks, a goal keeper. Another midfielder.

Huntelaar did fuck all, you can't expect him to. He's not that type of player. Tactically, Huntelaar is the same type as Nistelrooy. Give him the ball in the box. Don't expect them to make an action for themselves. They can't.

 

[Bobby Sands]

I was very disappointed with Pato as well. I expected Beckham to be rubbish but i though Pato would do something. He doesnt have the skill levels of Ronaldinho anyway.

 

[Flipmo]

Pato just returned from an injury, so gets a pass in my books for now.

 

[Bobby Sands]

yea thats true. was up against a good defender last night as well.

Evans was rubbish for Man Utd last night. Ferdinand wasnt great either.

Worst I've seen Evans play. Ferdinand was meh, didn't really do nothing wrong but he's nowhere near fully fit, third game in four months I think.

We were fortunate to be 1-1 at half time.

:love: Rooney.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Rooney is awesome in fairness.

i dont like the guy but as a footballer he is excellent.

 

[2Pax]

It's not every day you hear a Liverpool fan praising Wayne Rooney.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Pato was rushed back. He played 30 mins in 3 months before last night.

Porto 2-1 up. Lol @ Fabianksi

 

[Flipmo]

Edit: My bad it was Klose. Either way. Huhuhu

 

[Bobby Sands]

It's not every day you hear a Liverpool fan praising Wayne Rooney.

i still hate the fucker

but i think most Liverpool fans would acknowledge that he is a very good footballer. no point saying he isnt.

that said, this white pele bullshit is taking it too far and Messi is still the best player in the world.

Fiorentina were robbed by that stupid ref. they can still beat Bayern though.

I felt sorry for the Arsenal keeper. his confidence must be very low.

 

[Bobby Sands]

How was Klose not sent off? bad tackle.

Gobbi sending off was harsh. play acting from Robben. goal was offside and Klose should not have been on the field to score it. this ref is a disaster.

Also should have played advantage and allowed Gomez to score for Bayern's goal.

 

[Duke]

Props to Van Gaal for admitting that Bayern's 2-1 was a clear offside.

The guy should have been banned forever for robbing Ballack of his well deserved champion league trophy.
