Qf draw

Easy draw for Liverpool so they'll be able to rest players. Our reserves have done well to make it this far!

DJKendo

So far, the only thing this match (PNE vs Man U) has proven is that it would be a mistake to have any attacking Man United player in FF.

Preston 1 up

1-1. Herrera

Shouldn't have been allowed. Rooney had to move to allow the ball past him so he's interfering IMO.

Not sure exactly what the rule is. He didn't touch it, he didn't block the keepers view, and he didn't fake an attempt to touch it and in doing so trick the keeper. I sort of feel it should be allowed.

yes you have nailed. under the current daft rule it had to stand no matter how much Martin Keown wanted it to be disallowed

How bad was Falcao ? I tuned in just as he was coming off and the commentators were like :: " Is that the last time we see Falcao in a Man United shirt ? "

beyond awful. and I say that as someone who has owned him twice and desperately wanted him to do well. he is done. fellaini may start further up the pitch at his expense for next few games

Utd pen. Rooney fouled

I wouldn't call it a dive, in the sense that had he not jumped over the keeper, he would have been taking clean out of it, and could have been hurt.

Players who fall over imaginary feet, on the other hand dive.

He was actually past the keeper by the time he dived. That sort of crap is embarrassing.

Anyways, back to FF. I'm getting rid of ADM once GW27 is done. United are just woeful going forward and you really can't trust any of their players.

He had to shift his position though for the ball to go past him. That for me is interfering with play.

His positioning would very much have been in the mind of the 'keeper.

Jose's plan to park the bus tonight has gone a bit pear shaped already.....

Ivanovic goal - Cahill assist - Terry assisting the assist.

Mr.Prodston

Terry with the cross, Cahill with the delicious flick on and Ivanovic with the well placed header.

1-0 Chelsea

Though, if the decision is to be taken after tomorrow's game, considering PSG recent form and this week-end injury avalanche for them, it may be over after the first leg and thus the second one would not really bother Chelsea.

Was well wrong here. Looks like PSG was really waiting for this game for months. Pretty decent display from them tonight compared with the appalling last 2-3 months we've been used to :rolleyes:... Marquinhos being surprisingly fit was a great news for them. Though Motta's absence in midfield which forced Blanc to play David Luiz in midfield, Marquinhos CB & Van der Wiel RB was a pain since the latter was/is pretty poor...

Chelsea's favourite but it's not over yet.

Everton 1 down

Lukaku goal

DJKendo

Man, that headed goal by Lukaku was as good as any you'll see all year, even better than Kane's against Arsenal.

Oviedo with the assist

Coleman (Naismith)

Great team goal.

Was it not Barry assist? Cracking header alright

KevIRL

Lukaku again

DJKendo

Lukaku (Oviedo)

1-3 to Everton.

Why can't they play like this the whole time?

Their defence still looks dodgy with every ball in though so I'd avoid.

Oviedo crossed in for the first goal didn't he?

The third goal I thought was Barry assisted Oviedo's assist. Maybe it was the other way around.

Sturridge plays which both surprises and worries me in equal measures.
