CL Midweek

Dave!

Come on Sevilla, don't f*ck it up please

mike65

Well done to l'Arse, they spurned so many chances I thoughts they'd end up paying with a sucker punch. Milan were hopelessly slow and dull-witted once thier initial attack faded.

As for Utd, well boo. Thats all.

Mike.

Celtic did well enough. Hartley and Naka must have misplaced 3 out of about 60 passes combined. Much, much better performance than the first leg. Obviously terrible off the ball though.

homerjay2005

jaysus, really shows that the italian league in now way way behind the premiership...its a league in serious decline.


in the last 3 years,

united hammer roma.
liverpool beat juve.
arsenal knock out juve.
arsenal knock out milan.

liverpool comfortable over inter.

Mossy Monk

Excellent performance by Arsenal. If Diaby is dropped then all the better. He was terrible tonight I thought.

whiskeyman

Arsenal looked amazing. That result is really going to fire them up for glory this season.

Xavi6

So what was Xavi's goal like?

Now it's an Everest-sized task for Gordon Strachan's boys. Ronaldinho plays one of those passes where he puts the ball one way while looking the other, Silvinho provides the cross and it's not clear who gets the final touch but Xavi gets the nod for now.

Thats one of "those" passes leading to a goal in each leg for Ronaldinho.

Past it? Never.

PHB

Great to see Arsenal go through, well deserved.

United go through, were a class ahead of Lyon but played a **** negative formation (again)
Ronaldo played great in the first half IMO, poor in the second half, but then again, so did Uniteds attack. Negative tactics again from Fergie is gona cost us I think

great passing move and a good flick on the near post, but should have been saved. a soft hand by the keeper was the description of the commentary team..

Vokes

Dunno about that. He linked up pretty well with Adebayor and Hleb, despite 1 or 2 dodgy passes on occasion. I thought Eboue was much worse..

Roddy23

I thought that was one of Diaby's bettergames too, excellent passing, and some strength on the ball. Eboue an absolute waster.

Dave!

First half extra time finished in Sevilla game

KdjaCL

Think Diaby plays on the left to "compete" with other midfielders allowing Flamini and Cesc to go forward, though he "competed" with milans 3 fairly well, passing was poor when trying to play an attacking pass but when doing the crab he done well.

ref down with cramp:D

KdjaCL

why do fenerbache have 3 stars on their jersey?

Raskolnikov

Milan were beaten in the midfield. Arsenal were the first to every ball, tackle and header. You have to question whether Pirlo and Gattuso still have to desire to continue winning trophies.

A star for every 10 domestic leagues they've won?

Necronomicon

Whoot penos

mayordenis

nice a bit of peno's

Guy:Incognito

Pppppppeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooosssssssssssssss

d22ontour

Looked like he blew up 3 seconds early.

:eek:

radiospan

I'd say he blew up way early. There was an injury in the 2nd half too.

It's on both Sky Sports 2 and Sky Sports 3, they even have different analysis on each channel before the penalties (Richard Keys, Poyet, etc on 2, Jeff Stelling etc on 3)

Chong

Disappointed I missed out on the actual match due to watching Man U.

Come on Fenerbahce!!

The bloody ref got 2 mins of treatment himself and added none of it on...bizarre

...Seville to progress I'd say...

Chong

Cracking Peno from Vederson.

Seville 2-3 Fenerbache


Fenerbache through.

Chong

This is brilliant stuff.

Tusky

What a save!

[edit] and that is an amazing penalty.

KdjaCL

Palops fairly handy at penos.

kdjac

Chong

Maresca jebus. Volkan is built like the proverbial Sh!t house.

gucci

Well done to Arsenal, really thought they would get beaten today. Probably got a little luck for the first goal, but hey lots of goals like that change matchs, worth a dink from there every now and then.
Gives Liverpool a bit of hope going to San Siro next week

SantryRed

None of the Fenerbahce's keeper's saves should be allowed.

HE's deliberately coming off the line before the peno's are struck.

Should be pulled up by the linesmen.

Necronomicon

Alves misses!! Fener through.

KdjaCL

FFS





kdjac

Chong

Excellent, absolutely delighted for Fenerbahce.

Tusky

Feel bad for Dani Alves.

mayordenis

pool vs fenerbache in the next round please

mike65

Rofl. First time a Turkish team has made the quarters.

I'd take that mayordenis

Mike.

Nunu

By the way what ever happened to the keepers have to stay on their line rule...ridiculous

Every save from the Turk he was way off his line

No chance. Do you want another 2006?

Should we get through I'll have Barce thanks.

Peyton Manning

Just saw Xavi's goal.

Bloody brilliant passing.

Jimmy McGee is awful.

Hey, logic is logic.:)

Nah but seriously, they seem to raise their game against decent teams but have a serious "meh" attitude to the lesser ones. It's not good.

Raskolnikov

Delighted to see Fenerbahce go through, an English/Spanish stranglehold is no good for the comepetition.

A good chance there will be no Italian team in the quarter finals :eek:

PHB

Jesus I want Fenerbache in the next round Them or Schalke/Porto please

Seriously though, why are keepers constantly allowed cheat in penalties! It's a ****ing joke

Sevilla can't be out. Dunphy said they're one of the best teams in the competition. Don't tell me he was.....wrong?
