It's good to see Raul is still scoring goals on the big stage. It seems like he's been around forever. I can remember talking about him with some mates, after we'd just been playing footie in our local park, back in '94/95.
Seems like you can take the boy out of the gutter but you can't take the gutter out of the boy as they say.
Well it's going to be tough winning up there but not impossible.
What I can't understand about Chelsea is why there has to be so much interference. Let Ancelotti manage the team. Wilkins got sacked for no good reason and I bet Ancelotti really wanted Torres.
Oops.
A few years back I heard that Brighton had been given the go-ahead to build a new ground. At the time I predicted that Brighton would be in the Premier League within 5 years.
That prediction is looking good.
Well at least those bastards won't get the treble. One down - 2 to go.
And what was that with ferdinand and Balotelli at the end. talk about sore losers. Good job he's not England captain. Typical eh?
Balotelli is a s*ithouse.

He has done some really stupid childish ridiculous things - but what did Gary Neville do to wind people up? I think Ferdinand should've shown more dignity there.
Gary Neville is also a s*ithouse.
And his dad Neville Neville, no doubt.
Alves can't halve roll around well for somebody who's injured.
"There are times now when the missing Madrid player is very visible."
Everyone in the media is saying it was an awful game with disgusting cheating by both teams, but.....I loved it!

Me too. I was fascinted by it, I could watch Barca play on a 24 hour loop. Can't wait for the 2nd leg.

I agree TB, it was great entertainment. Guardiola knew that Mourinho would send his boys out kicking, and countered this with the theatrics. Quite a clever ploy.
I actually jumped out of my seat when Messi scored his wonder-goal, he's a bit of a player that lad.
Yep- not every game has to be full of silky skills and goals from 40 yards out to be enjoyable.
I love the controversy of these big games.
