Win what? The Premier League or the Championship?

Suica is right. We need someone like Silva. Or atleast someone who can score besides Rooney. Berbatov just cannot score. Owen's better.

[biank-the-raven]

We were so bad in that match and against Sevilla it's not even funny. And both of those matches were at Ibrox too...

Honestly, I expected Rangers to win, especially that they scored so quickly, but...the destiny...

But they spend too much time not playing at their best for me to consider them at the same level as Chelsea/Man U. Idk if that made sense.

It does, but for me that only tells me that they should be considered. If we are 3rd in the league with a game in hand just by playing badly, think how much better we'll be when we're playing at our best. All the top teams have to grind out results when things aren't going their way and that's what we've done in some matches.

...This is so obvious I'm surprised I didn't see this sooner.

4-0 TO ALCERCON. Hell yeah, I love you Spanish people. FYI, that's against Real Madrid in Copa Del Ray, Barcelona, you don't have any challenge from them. Also, ALCERCON FOR CHAMPIONS LEAGUE.

lol...

This happens the day all the pubs in Scotland close.

We have honestly just been horrible this year. No excuse.

[~-Overheat-~]

lol Alcorcon beating Real Madrid.

This is the final straw in proving Real Madrid cant do anything without C.Ronaldo....Pathetic. We werent this dependant on him.

[Thunder Giant]

LOL at Madrid

Anways, I haven't been on for some time, so....

GREAT win over Madrid last week. Teamn played well, WHAT a goal by Pirlo. Get win for mentality, and hopefully we can double over madrid

Nice brace for Nesta against Chievo to get us the win. Nice to see him score . But....
WTF was that against Napoli??!?!?!?1 2-0 up in first 8 mins, only to conceed 2 in final five? WTF! Why with all the defending suddenly after the second goal, should;ve pushed for more.

Milan to play Parma on Sat now. Nesta out, but Parma are in fourth place atm (that's Serie A for ya!) It will be a nice return for Paloschi, hope he scores....hope we our score them. 4-2 the final score should be.

Also, how did Aquilani go? I am interested to see how he would do in the new enviroment.
and also Poor Zola. He did well with West Ham last year, but this year.....

And for those with an interst in Robbie Fowler, he has been playing well in the A-League. He has about 5 goals in 10/11 matches so far. His experience and skill is what out shines him from the rest of the league at the moment.

[pika pika pikachu]

I know it's late but better late than never.

What a game last week between Liverpool and Manchester United.

I'm not just saying this because i'm a Liverpool fan but the best team won. United's defence seemed rocky at times and Liverpool took full advantage of two excellent chances scoring twice.

Liverpool, Liverpool, Liverpool!

Lol had to do it.

Yes, it is Shevchenko, you got it right! and isn't he playing well now!

Some nice results for us. A cool 2-0 win over Parma last Saturday (Borriello bicycle kick for the win), and a draw against Madrid. However, Pato's goal should've standed, and we shouldn've won 2-1.

Throughout this week, we have made three young signings. One is Dominic Adyiayaih (a ghanian guy) who plays for a norweigen team, and the other two are young guns. These types of signings are good, as they will replace the legends (Pirlo, Seedorf [i have grown a soft spot for him], etc). So in the next couple of years, we will have am awesome team!!!

Saturday November 7

Wolverhampton Wanderers 0-4 Arsenal

Sunday November 8
Hull City 1-2 Stoke City

Wigan Athletic 1-2 Fulham
Chelsea 3-2 Manchester United

As much as I'd like United to win, I have to say we're going to lose, but not very big like everyone expects, the Chelsea defence has been a bit fragile IMO with only Terry performing like a Chelsea defender should.(I'm not saying the other Chelsea defenders are bad, it's just that I've only seen him clearing balls of the line and such)

Monday November 9
9 Nov, 20:00 Liverpool 1-2 Birmingham City

You know, it wouldn't be a disaster if Liverpool were relegated to the Europa League. At least, then, they can perhaps win SOMETHING this year. On the other hand, Bayern Munich look likely to end up there as well, so maybe not.
