Well I doubt they'll win but will be cheering for them anyway (and everyone else that isn't Man Utd in Group C).

Harps, what's your connection to Basel ?

My bad Bayern munchen playing city not Manwho.

Champions League,

Carlos Tevez refused to go on in Man whos 2-0 loss against Bayern Munchen.

Even better was man U being 2-0 up and only drawing 3-3


Tevez wasn't the only sook in that game for City, Dzeko had a tanty about being taken off.

Mancini's tactics are likely to have been the catalyst though, putting on a defender, away from home, to "not lose any more goals" when 2-0 down seems a bit silly. It's the group stage so away goals won't factor in, if the game is lost then it's lost so no real harm in trying to get a goal back. I doubt goal difference will matter too much for the group.

Everton/Liverpool. What a joke red card...

Edit: Good game this. Liverpool just missed the penalty - Everton hanging on.

Had a good long look at the foul that Rodwell was given a straight red for.

If he wasn't leading with his studs out it was just a foul, yellow at absolute worst.

But you simply cannot lead with your studs out, ever.


Probably the worst part of the game were the Everton fans, must seriously have rocks in their head to be calling Suarez a cheat when it clearly was a foul and it's the ref who decided it was a red card - Suarez didn't even appeal for a card or so much as look at the ref. Throwing all sorts of crap onto the pitch/at players will cop them a serious fine (or worse) - which is pretty silly considering they were only just protesting at a lack of funds. Constructive as!

Yes that was pretty silly towards the end and it nearly cost them a goal when their defenders were distracted by what was going on in the crowd.

I had money on Liverpool. Got 2.20 for the win at half time and thought with the one man advantage should be easy.

Once again not EPL, but is a wicked goal from the Bundesliga

p,s. Trishan I think you'll like the jumper more
