The Soccer Thread (Version 7.0)

They just couldn't read it under the stacks of cash.

 

Zhdane has reportedly been accidentally running into Bale during the Europa League on behalf of Real Madrid. As a Spurs fan, that sucks, although of course it's only the natural order of things.

 

They don't. Not with that defense and inconsistent finishing.

Jesus, Mary and Tapdancing Joseph in a wave of slow, indecisive mediocrity, that was fucking disgusting today. Although Piers Morgan's aneurysyms were more entertaining than anything he's done on American TV.

 

Don't really get playing such a high line against two of the fastest wingers in the league

 

Rooney does not get the start against RM. Unless he is hurt, can't really see the logic.

 

One, that was a bullshit straight red on Nani. Two, Giggs looked like a spring chicken out there today. Three, I agree with The Special One who said the best team lost today.

 

I thought the call was marginal rather than pure bullshit. But at that point, red cards shouldn't even be marginal, only sure things.

 

Definitely a very iffy call on Nani, especially in a game of this magnatude. Man U wins 11-on-11.

 

It was a foul and perhaps a yellow card. Red? No way.

 

Just watched it. It's a card, a dangerously high boot. But a red? No way.

Giggs and Cleverly were fantastic before the red card. I thought that Rafael was improved, but still the weak link. RVP came up small again.

All credit to RM. they played a disciplined tough game and pounced once the red came.

 

Echo those comments, that was a ridiculous red.

 

It was totally ridiculous, but also, HILARIOUS!
