    Thought i'd start a thread for this one. Although it could turn out to be an almighty bore but what the hell.

    Prediction is a boring 1-1..

    Zhirkov starting. Chelsea to thrash them again this year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,209 ✭✭✭Redzer7


    Any links for this one? Think Milan might edge it out 1 nil.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,097 ✭✭✭DenMan


    Is that game in California tonight? LA I believe.

    I'm hoping for a good open game and a high score (to keep the American fans happy).

    Prediction....Chelsea 3 AC Milan 3

    that spurs game sounds good alright. Might watch that one instead. Hopefully streams available for both closer to 8 then !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,459 ✭✭✭T-b0n3


    Spurs Barca on Sky Sports 1, so should be some streams. Might head down to the pub to watch it.

    3-1 Chelsea.

    I'll say;
    Lamps
    Zhircov
    and Sheva to score.

    How did he injure himself?

    How did he injure himself?

    Attacked by a swarm of angry bees?


    I vote for 4-3 to Milan.

    Mikel hat trick, followed by 4 from Ronaldinho. ;)

    Oohhhhh that's a nasty injury to get


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 264 ✭✭selpher


    2 strong starting line ups.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,875 ✭✭✭ShoulderChip


    looking forward to see us playing the 4-4-2 diamond formation against the team that we are copying it off.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,709 ✭✭✭CR 7


    What a goal!!!! Bet the fans calling for him to be sold are feeling real smug now.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 9,648 Mod ✭✭✭✭mayordenis


    any amazing streams?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,709 ✭✭✭CR 7


    This is as amazing as it gets. Slightly biased commentators though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,750 ✭✭✭redzerdrog


    can any post the line ups please?

    yes it was a sublime goal, we are looking pretty good I must say.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,709 ✭✭✭CR 7


    Not a bad equaliser either. Lots of 'veterans' out to prove us all wrong it seems.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,709 ✭✭✭CR 7


    Almost another great goal, this time a tremendous free kick from Ronaldinho, off the crossbar. The power and accuracy was unbelieveable, that cliché is accurate, class is permanent.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,301 ✭✭✭blue-army


    Zhirkov looks a good signing. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,301 ✭✭✭blue-army


    Zhirkov scored! 2-1. 75mins gone. :D:D:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,709 ✭✭✭CR 7


    Nice showboating from Belletti.:D:cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,709 ✭✭✭CR 7


    Interesting situation there, Inzaghi after running over the line, beside the goal, and ran back after the ball was played to him, he was ruled offside, but a chelsea defender, along with cech were on the goal line. But could it be argued he was onside, as he was in line with the defenders in the playing area? Or is the area not considered in play covered by the offside rule?


    In retrospect I'll probably look back at this in the morning and feel ridiculous.

    To call Zhirkov the Russian Ronaldinho is a bit funny though. Unless we are talking about the overweight, undermotivated genius from the past three seasons... :D;)
