the last time an english team won it was in 2001....6 years ago!
same bullshi*t been posted here i see ''overrated'' ''not as good against the big teams''..... 1st'ly the same can be said about thierry henry and thats off the top of my head and 2nd'ly when united play chelsea,liverpoorl,arsenal etc..... or liverpool play chelsea etc.... no player stands out its the best of the best against each other, dosent say much for say ashley cole if ronaldo makes bits of him does it, dosnt happen does it, no caz he is deemed the best left back going and when you counter that with best right winger your hardly gonna see him wipe the ground with him??,
u want to talk about ''overrated players'' ''RRROONEY'' is terrible against ALL teams IMO he scores a goal here and there and performances are wrote off had he choose to play for ireland he wouldnt have even have cost 28 odd million, btw i support man utd so im not having a go at the players because i support another team im giving an honest opinion!. switch ronaldo with rooney(nationality) and with all the hype in papers etc... ronaldo's ability wouldnt be questioned!.
rte panel past its sell by date back in the early 90's their all full of sh*t....houghton especially talks like he wrote the book on faultless football, as for the rest their all roy keane blojo*ers(no offense roy) dull, miserable sods anyway
Can anybody understand that.
Not a bit of it, but I assume the time it was posted may have something to do with it. :DQuote:

Classic.

Absolutely 100% Spot OnQuote:

Fairplay to the RTE panel telling it how it is unlike the fawning morons over on ITV
I agree.Quote:

Brilliant stuff as always. Compared to Andy Townsend and Robbie "Jamaican World Cup Star" Earle on the sideline. What a joke ITV are. Bring back Gabby Yorath and Big Ron.
Oh and did anyone hear Charlie Nicholas after Mancini's 2nd goal(where he does about 8 stepovers) for Roma tonight.
"That's just fabulous skill, wonderful. I'm out on the town wi this boy tonight!!!
'Based on tonight', the rantings of a madman.Quote:

Anybody who thinks Gerrard is a "nothing player" is letting their hatred of the Premiership cloud their opinion. Ridiculous comment.
I've come to the conclusion that the RTE lads don't actually like football. They like the mythical, never-happened Superfootball that their drug-addled (in Dunphy's case) minds misremember from when they were young.

It's all a far cry from small boys in the park, jumpers for goalposts. Isn't it? Mmmmm. Marvellous.
Dunphy's change in attitude from half time to full time was hillarious.
I thought Dunphy said rubbish twice about Gerrard.
Giles can be seriously depressed, at times nothing can spark some joy in the man. If Barca were as great as Brady claims then it follows that either they are not so great or Liverpool outplayed them, by any measurement Liverpool deserved it unreservedly last night.
Probably it was the most out of tune post match analysis I have seen. Bill should have thrown a tantrum at them.
The old Liverpool would have been 2 up and closed down the game. So what about this shaky performance, any analysis of the game would show that it was by some freak that they hadn't scored by half time and Barca could conjure a goal at any time out of nothing.
Finnan is class.
Would the Liverpool fans not let their blind love for this defence minded team cloud what they are saying.
Brady said that if you enjoy free flowing attacking football than you would have wanted Barcelona to go through. This is correct.
Giles said Liverpool can't attack to save their lives. This is correct.
They all said Sissoko is good at winning the ball, but is one of the worst passers of the ball at this level. This is correct.
Dunphy said Gerrard is a nothing player. While this is going over the top Gerrard certainly is a liability, the guy is only out to get headlines for himself, he won't track back, and goes missing in lots of games.
I'm not a United, Everton, Chelsea or Arsenal fan incase you were going to ask
In the context of last nights game he was worse than uselessQuote:

Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard
"It is necessary to congratulate Liverpool," said the Dutchman.
"They have played, forcefully, very hard, direct and with a lot of mental strength.
"They have made a great team, organised well at the back and with a lot of depth.
"The result was correct. We gained 0-1, but with some luck. They had chances and were a team with a lot of emotion and at a superior level."
Gerrard is the most over-rated player in the history of the professional game - and that's saying something in the context of English media hype of average players.
KOH
I've seen plenty of world class performances from Gerrard. I can honestly and truely say I've never seen Frank Lampard put in a world class performance.Quote:
