borussia dortmund has been a joy to watch this season as well. some really great passing and combination play, great on the break.

First he makes his Churchill-style speech to rouse his team to life and back from a 0-3 deficit. And then he scores after appearing unable to play 3 hours before the game. Scott Parker has been an amazing force in an otherwise unfortunate club.

The reason why I want West Ham to stay up is that Parker would almost invariably end up at Spurs otherwise.

Oh, hadn't realised he'd spoken. I assume he's seen the highlights by now. It's absolute cowardice that he has not admitted a mistake. It was an opportunity for people to believe that referees and the FA were serious about stamping out thuggery

It's only because it's Rooney and United.

If it was us then it would have been red carded at the time and rightly so.

I thought people were probably over egging what Rooney had done, and then I saw the incident on MOTD last night. He was banged to rights, it was a 3 game ban all day, every day.

So Clattenberg feels he dealt with the elbow incident appropriately and therefore the FA say Rooney has no case to answer?
That can't be right, pure nonsense.
FA endorsed incompetence.

I wait to see what will happen next time one of United's players gets an elbow.

Clattenberg's such a big poof. you're losing your hair mate, deal with it like a man

This Milan - Napoli game is really good. One wonders why Milan couldn't muster up half this energy against Spurs.

Ballotelli's haircut. 😆

Great goal from him today.

i loved the way ever banega played today against barca.

Seriously, can someone give me a good reason why the Premier League has not stepped in to suspend Cole for playing Rambo at the training ground the other day? It sends a bad message about player discipline and respect for safety in the workplace. If I'd pulled that stunt in my office...

'Celtic coach Alan Thompson says El Hadji Diouf is to blame for a stormy Old Firm Scottish Cup tie, claiming that the Rangers striker "threw a shoulder" on Celtic's physio.' (Various)

How the hell do you throw a shoulder? Shoulder barge?

Neymar has been called up to the brazil squad for the scotland game at our place. Going to book my tickets now, have been dying to see this kid properly.
