Because he is a footballing genius who can hold down a managerial job for more then 10 minutes.

The Champions League has been riddled with dodgy refereeing over the years, some would say that it's a conspiracy for certain teams to always win it and that Sepp Blatter / FIFA are integral to this corruption.

There are other critics who say that using referees from minor foreign leagues is a bad idea because they don't know the tricks some teams utilise to get opposing players sent off.

It's not just the Champions League where the Arse have had to play with 10. There have been dozens of times they've had players sent off. They can't all be dodgy refereeing decisions.

I did actually want the Arse to win; I want all British clubs to do well in Europe .... except for one.

The mighty Wolves march on to their ninth consecutive league win - a club record.

Watching Barca at the moment.
Christ, I don't fancy anyone's chances against this lot.

Looks like the Spanish teams will be favourites to win the CL this season. I'd like to see Real Madrid win their 10th.

No problem with that. As long as Bayern doesn't win.

Now, that was completely unnecesary. Bye, ManCity.

Would be interesting to see if Rangers could win the Scottish Cup. Would they qualify for Europe?

Sol Campbell on Newsnight.

Well that was enlightening. I think he made himself look a bit of a dick.

RACIST!

Little known fact
If Freddie Mercury hadn't recorded the song Barcelona then he was going to release one called Man City

I notice how Barca are studiously avoiding the Wolves at the moment!

FC Basel vs. RB Salzburg 0-0. Could have been worse.

I'm not exactly a Rangers fan but I see they've just won the Scottish League One title and are on their way back to the top division.

Hopefully it's helped the lower league teams financially. Then when they do get to the top league hopefully they'll be able to give Celtic some competition again.

If they both came into the English leagues, where would you put them?

Championship for starters I would have thought.

No
They are not allowed
Especially in the current climate

Only Andy Murray is allowed for two weeks a year
