Uncle Eamo creaming himself over Sour Alex and the beautiful game tonight, giving Benitez no credit with Giles saying otherwise.
Easy money for Ronnie Whelan stuck in the middle.

Got to hand it to Liverpool that's a very good result away from home against a good Real Madrid side on a decent bit of form.
Also great performance from the machine that is Bayern München, Ribery got 2 (first was an absolute cracker), Toni 2 and Klose got 1. For all the media hype about Manchester United and their wonderful "system", Bayern have played the best football of the week so far and I'd say they are a good bet to go all the way... In the last few years of European competition they've only ever lost to the cup winners (Milan and Zenit).
must give liverpool credit .. not my choice of football style but it was effective , they played as a team and fully deserved win in the end on this performance would expect them to have to much heart / passion / teamwork for return leg at anfield in 2 weeks

Hope United crash out to Jose's inter. Cannot stand the sight of that team.
The referee booking Toldo was pure quality.

Just how good was Xabi Alonso again last night??
He's pure class.
Gareth Barry??
What was Rafa thinking??
I have to admit I switched the Madrid-Liverpool game off at half time. Woeful. Juve looked decent in the second half and should fancy their chances against Chelsea.
makes you wonder why benitiz was willing to let him go from club

I watched the Chelsea vs Juve game and at the end I switched over to RTE to hear the panel castigating Liverpool (with the usual digs at Charlton) and I thought Real Madrid must have hammered them. Instead I find that Liverpool had won at fortress Madridmust give liverpool credit .. not my choice of football style but it was effective , they played as a team and fully deserved win in the end on this performance would expect them to have to much heart / passion / teamwork for return leg at anfield in 2 weeksA fantastic result and all I hear is about Liverpool playing to a system and that Man U don't. What a load of cod's wallop (wonder what that is). Don't tell me Man U didn't play to a system again Inter. Some more attractive players ok because they are the richest club in the world afterall but they definitely set out with a defensive system against Inter.
Trappatoni being compared to Charlton - he's in for a rough ride from the Panel guided by the laughing buffoon with the "controversial" statements to get the Panel all hot and bothered.
Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
I noticed that real had the spanish flag on the front of their jerseys.. is this a new thing??
have noticed before that bohs and rangers have their respective country flags on the back of their jerseys.
i think the english clubs should put their george flag on the front (or better still the union jack). It would be a real seller to all the fans
real madrid officially worlds richest club.. yes utd started with a defensive system against inter & it may now cost them, but point panel were trying to make ( i think) is that utd played more controlled footballI watched the Chelsea vs Juve game and at the end I switched over to RTE to hear the panel castigating Liverpool (with the usual digs at Charlton) and I thought Real Madrid must have hammered them. Instead I find that Liverpool had won at fortress Madrid

and held onto ball better... how many times has dunphy had a go at utd / arsenal for not having good defensive set up's and in arsenals case being to attractive always trying to play football but not enough heart/passion defensive teamwork.. yet liverpool played last night with a lot of heart / passion / teamwork and got a great result and end up getting castigated
so take mr dunphy as talking s***e a lot of the time he loves attenion and playing up to camera's

Same here. Dreadful game. A solid professional job by Liverpool, they just didn't give Real any space. While I can appreciate the performance, I'd rather watch paint dry

Ha ha I win!!!
Na fair dues, worst match ever though. Real made Inter look good
I was never so glad to be wrong!Ha ha I win!!!

Great result for the Reds.
Still be cautious in return leg but have to fancy us now.
I suppose if Real score first who knows but it's hard to see past Pool after Reals performance last night.
Momo Sissoko has fractured his foot and will miss Juve vs Chelsea. Could be a blessing is disguise for Juve IMO.
As a Chelsea fan I forsee the same starting line-up as Coventry. Which means Malouda. Which means we effectively start with ten men. So, can we beat Juventus with ten men? Probably, given that I didn't see anything particularly scary about Juve at the Bridge. But there again, we weren't that great either.
United will win easily , Inter are useless going forward at home , 1st half i thought they were the away side , away they will collapse because they just dont have enought quality .
Liverpool know how to win european games at home , can see them winning 2-1.
Football is a team game until the goalkeeper makes a mistake, then it becomes an individual sport.
