5/6th & 12/13th Champions League Matches

No they didn't. Look at the 10+ players they had out injured and a few more not close to 100%.

Compare that with the team that play now. Only three or so of them was available for most of the games the first half of the season.

It is almost a completely new team out there.

Rafa only had Zanetti and Stankovic available almost every game.

Cesar, Cordoba, Lucio, Maicon, Materazzi, Samuel, Chivu, Motta, Sneijder, Cambiasso, Coutinho, Milito and Pandev had LONG term injuries and missed at least a couple of months the first half of the season. Eto'o was suspended a few games.

Now almost all of them are back playing.

Arn if you removed Rafa,Carra & Gerrard from your posts i reckon you 'd have a 7 posts. Broken record mate. No disrespect but it's a bit tedious. Rafa flopped end of.

Anyone else think Crouch deliberately good himself sent off so he could visit that prostitute from last year?

Having just come in and seen the two lunges I almost wonder if he did have other plans tonight.

I actually quite like Adebayor, seems a good lad

[little dave hedgehog]

every time a thread devolves like this, can a mod just move all the offending posts into a thread called "craig and arn argue about rafa (with special guests) and if people feel like continuing to argue, they can go there? I think that's the best answer.

edit: sorry for the confusion, i meant to write craig and arn, not craig and web. i guess my phone doesn't know arn's name.

He's a ****in tool.

[Gibbo]

He's a ****in tool.

Besides the Van Persie/ Arsenal game incident I don't think he's done anything to warrant being called a tool, during the world cup coverage and in his post match interviews he seems a likeable bloke.

We were ****ing dyer tonight and by reading back on these posts, some of you ****ing loved it, vultures.

Adebayor's a cunt, most of my arse mates have some how miraculously forgotten how he mugged them off when he scored against them for citeh... He's now a hero again.

Well ****ing done, some of you were right, I was wrong. Hope those who wanted us to lose are smiling tomorrow, because I ****ing won't be.

Drunk rant over.

I knew those long legs of Crouchie would get him into trouble one day.

Good and relevant points well made.

[Vermilion]

Can't put my finger on why, but Arry, infront of the Champs league cameras at the after game press conference, just looked out of place to me.

Blimey, I thought he spent most of his spare time buying bling jewellery but clearly he enjoys rather more sordid pursuits these days.

You could see that second card coming the second he started the tackle, completely unnecessary, play was in their half FFS.

Could next week be the greatest turnaround since you against AC.... Of course not, but a little part of me still wants to think we can. That part is clearly deluded.
