Re: Champions League 08/09 (OFFICIAL THREAD)
This game to show cases how awesome the teams in the premier league are, if Man U and Arsenal win, it be 3 english teams in the semi-finals once again, so Seb Blatter will have to cry and start saying how English football is ruining football.
Like i said all the English Teams would dominate it and they have. 3 Premier League clubs in the semi-finals.

Hardly English teams anymore, Chelsea - Liverpool 19 non UK players on the field and none UK manager ;)
Sad that money ruins European football, my team has lost top strikers to the premier league, Kuyt, van Persie and Kalou all had their football education at Feyenoord Rotterdam and when they got really good they were stolen by the premiership. I hate it i can't see them playing in Rotterdam no more, we should have been in the semi finals :angry: :whistling

English teams always had the advantage of the fantastic pace. Now with all these foreign players and coaches also found tactic and skills. They are not typical English teams but they great international ones

Ok i meant Premier Legaue teams, but i kinda see what ur saying its a shame these top dutch stars dont give a few more seasons anymore like the great players of the Ajax team in the early 90's, but end of the day no top dutch player ever stays in Holland, but end of the day u got to go where the money is which u can hardly blame them for doing.
Re: Champions League 08/09 (OFFICIAL THREAD)
I hope United beats Arsenal :D
Re: Champions League 08/09 (OFFICIAL THREAD)
Pretty much feel asleep watching todays match between Barca and Chelsea but Chelsea got a good draw from it, looking much more forward to Arsenal and Man Utd which i feel will be a much more exciting affair.

same here, i'm waiting impatiently for ARsenal-Mu.
i think next chelsea-barça will be hot though.
Re: Champions League 08/09 (OFFICIAL THREAD)
Let's just hope that MU-Arsenal will not be as boring as Barca-Chelsea.I expected much much more from Barca but again Chelsea played very well (in defence) and with 22-3 shots they survived and will probably qualify

mmmh, don't be so sure, it's always hard to score a goal against Barcelona in such a situation.
Re: Champions League 08/09 (OFFICIAL THREAD)
"10 defender" team, except 10 ending min's and couple of tries from drogba they stood to their half all the time, should be ashamed of them self by playing such a boring football.
i rarely saw any midfielders, did Deco even play?
next game will be kinda hard, poyul and Marquez are out, hopefully that'll make Chelsea grow some balls.
