English, CL & Europa League Football [12th - 18th Mar 2010] **spoilers**

[el_dazza]

I'd really like Fulham to go through here, it'd be a major scalp.

 

[Tom84]

Yep the teams that have beaten Barca in the La Liga have managed to keep Messi quiet...but keeping him quiet over 2 legs is a big big ask..

Funny that because bar the goal he didn't trouble us at all in last years final nor did he in the previous seasons two legged semi

 

[Cob]

Cracking first half at the Cottage. Fulham could have given up after that first minute goal, but they've done brilliantly.

 

[el_dazza]

Every chance of winning this as well, they've taken advantage of the red card brilliantly. Another half like that and they've got a cracking chance.

 

[BaZ87]

nor did he in the previous seasons two legged semi

Yes he did. He was probably the best player in both legs, had he got any help from the rest of his team then the tie could have turned out very different.

I remember several Utd fans on here commenting after the tie about how good Messi was.

 

[el_dazza]

Am I going to be seen as a lunatic if I think that Zamora should get a chance for England in this form?

 

[Cob]

Penalty Fulham!

 

[BaZ87]

Penalty to Fulham

edit: And the Liverpool 11:
------------Reina
Johnson-Carra-Agger-Insua
--------Lucas-Masch
Kuyt-------Gerrard----Babel
------------Torres

Aquilani's got a virus and Maxi's cup-tied, unchanged other than that.

I'd prefer Zamora to Heskey any day.

Im pretty sure he did trouble you but i dont expect you to see that as you have your Utd tinted glasses on

The key to beating Barca is keeping Messi quiet...keep him quiet and you can beat them but then theres the chance that the others Xavi, Iniesta etc etc can quite easily do over a team.

Fulham just got a penalty lol...make that 3-1 to Fulham and 4-4 on aggregate

 

[Cob]

3-1


Fulham level the tie. They've got to be favourites now if they don't do anything silly.

 

[Tummy]

C'mon Fulham!

 

[CliffyG]

C'mon Fulham!

Indeed, cracking performance.

 

[el_dazza]

I'd prefer Zamora to Heskey any day.

I said the same thing to my dad just now. Heskey's useless.

 

[Rich_L]

Fortress Craven Cottage!

 

[Tummy]

****ing hell!

Werder Bremen v Valencia is turning in to a cracking game

4 - 4 on Agg!

 

[Tummy]

3 - 4 ! Villa got his hat trick!?

Best goal scorer / striker in the world?

 

[el_dazza]

I've got money on Valencia. :/

3-4 on the night now, 4-5 on agg.

 

[doodah]

Got a bet on WB, Fullham and Liverpool plus another 2 small bets on Juve as the odds shot up - never know, all they need is another goal to make things a lot harder.

 

[el_dazza]

I've got Valencia, Anderlecht, Liverpool and Marseille/Benfica draw.

**** off Marseille. Woot, Benfica equalise.
