soggy biscuit Find myself really looking forward to the next 2 evenings games!

Quick predictions would be:

Utd to win in Milan. Utd's makeshift defence and Inter's none to special defence paired with Utd's attacking force and Inter's (when on form) special front men could make this a cracker, fingers crossed.

Should have predicted they would spend more time on the floor than trying to play football

I hate the United favouritism on ITV. It makes me sick.

They are bound to be because it's an English team (sort of).
I thought Man Utd played better than expected and Inter worse-it sets it up for a cracker in two weeks' time.
If they had varied the free-kick routines they might have won the game.
BTW Inter-1 Italian
Man utd-2 English
Arsenal-0 English
Tomorrow probably
Chelsea-2 English
Liverpool- 1 or 2 English.
Times have certainly changed since Celtic won it with 11 Scots.

Yeah I understand why they are pro United, just don't like it.

Thought United totally bossed it in the first half but Inter came back well in the second half. Makes a great second leg. My men of the match - Evra for United, Cambiasso for Inter.

lol

soggy biscuit Arsenal's 5 year unbeaten home European record to come to an end against the Romans. Too many players out injured. Plus I freaking love Totti! (and De Rossi)


lol

I am adding to the LOLs with Lyon's freekick goal against Barce

Juve have two of my favourite players ever in their squad.

Christian Poulsen - the thinking man's thug

Thought Utd V The Argies was a good game, can't believe they didn't take the lead in the first half. Any goal for Inter at Old Trafford and it will make things very interesting.

Birmingham's Honduran Carlos Costly has the best real name ever. Better even than Newcastle's Julio Geordio from the 90's.

No mention of the incredibly pro-united refereeing performance? Don't know if it affected the game but he seemed to give everything their way and how he missed Evra's handball I don't know.

'greed

You can tell when things are going United way when Fergie is interviewed and he praises the ref.

Apart from in the CL, Dirkers, where I believe there is a contractual obligation for all managers to make themselves available for TV interviews for the channel from manager's club's country that owns the TV rights. A rule that the PL should bring into force in this country (if only to force Ferguson to start talking to the BBC :lol:)
