^True, thought Villerreals first goal was 11 v 11 and they were the better side with even teams.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Yea, Villareal were the better team.

September 1
FT Bolton W. 1 - 2 Everton
FT Fulham 3 - 3 Tottenham H.
FT Liverpool 6 - 0 Derby County
FT Middlesbrough 2 - 0 Birmingham C.
FT Newcastle U. 1 - 0 Wigan Athletic
FT Reading 0 - 3 West Ham U.
FT Manchester U. 1 - 0 Sunderland


Big win for Liverpool, while a late goal for Man U. brought them a win.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Kamara's goal for Fulham was brilliant.

Etherington scored 2 great goals for West Ham.

Good win for Liverpool but Derby were extremely poor.Every Liverpool goal came from bad blunders by Derby players. They are so out of their depth.

Sunderland are very limited and may get relegated.They have very little decent attacking options.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

^Agree about Derby, I cant see them winning many games. Probably wont get more than Sunderland did, 15 pts was it? :laugh:

Juventus won 3-2 today against Cagliari. Good game.

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^Yea, Napoli beat Udinese 5-0 away.Inter and Roma won as well.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Barcelona beat Bilbao 3-1 earlier. Ronaldinho scored a great free kick. Real Madrid are 1-0 at half time against Villareal.Raul scored after a great pass by Sneijder.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Real Madrid won 5-0. They were absolutely outstanding. Some of the football they played was unreal. Sneijder scored twice. He scored a great free kick and another well taken goal.He is was brilliant. really good player. Drenthe looks a good player as well. Guti was great. Some off the moves they put together were breathtaking.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

^Yeah Real Madrid were near perfect. One thing about the Barca game, the first half of what we were shown was awesome, Barca really looked back to their best. Good to see Dos Santos play Hopefully he gets alot more chances.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Id nearly back Madrid to win the Champs League this season. They are strong all over the pitch.

Were you watching the game Thuggy?Some of their moves were outstanding.A joy to watch.Villareal are no bad team either as they proved against Valencia.

I saw a small bit of the Barca game.Just saw Ronaldinho's freekick.

Sampdoria drew 0-0 with Lazio.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Yeah, i watched it. Surprised that not only did Madrid win but 5-0? Seeing as no-one really wins at El Madrigal especially not Real Madrid.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Real Madrid beat Almeria 3-1. Sneijder scored again with another class free kick. He is a quality player.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Arsneal hammered Derby.

Liverpool drew 0-0 at home against Birmingham.

Barca just beat Sevilla 2-1.

AC Milan fucked up again drawing 1-1 with Parma.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Benitez is some plonker. He leaves Torres out today. He pays 25 million on him to leave him on the bench. Torres changed the game when he came on. If he played from the start, i reckon we would have won. thats another 2 points dropped along with the 2 at Portsmouth. If we arent challenging for the league right to the very end then Benitez has to go. Im growing tired of him.

Another thing, Steve Finnan missed Ireland's game against Czech Rep. because of injury last Wednesday but was back in the Liverpool team on the following Saturday. What a miraculous recovery.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

2-0 Utd

Roma fucked up v Juventus. Finished 2-2

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

AC Milan fucked up again..

Henry scored a hattrick for Barca lastnight..but still Messi >>

 

[Flipmo]

Nice 90th minute goal by Trezeguet to take the win for Juventus.

Fans ran onto the pitch to hug him lol

 

[Bobby Sands]

Elano got a great goal didnt he? Man City have a fine team now and a good manager too.

Sampdoria beat Atalanta 3-0. Cassano scored.

 

[Illuminattile]

Spurs trailed 4-1, but came back to draw 4-4. That, plus the 7-4 between Portsmouth and Reading means England's top 3 goalkeepers all let in 4 goals this weekend. Fantastic.

Spurs are in trouble. Can't see them doing anything against Liverpool so I think Martin Jol is a goner.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Paul Robinson is shit. and to think that some English people said that he was better than Given. My arse.
