Fab, Chesney and Lehmann is a good line-up of goalkeepers.

I agree with this. If all three can enter the season in good health, I am willing to go with that. The clown Almunia has to go. It will be hard to feel good about Arsenal going forward if I continue to see him and Denilson in the side. Nobody else really gets me agitated the way those two do

lehmann was only drafted in as emergency backup, he won't play for us next season. who knows if he'll go on to coach.

So,Pirlo is leaving AC Milan after 10 years. 32 years old, experienced at the highest level, still very talented. Free...

As I've now completely given up hope of winning anything or signing a top class player for the foreseeable future, I'm happy to let Szczesny and the other kids continue their full time education in our team.

not sure your happy, you're just resigned to it

Well nirvana doesn't mean heaven, it means nothingness.

Indeed, and lets not forget that Almunia started and very nearly finished the season as #1.

Who knows what will happen next season.

He looked sharp enough against Blackpool. Could be a good #3 to have around.

Barcelona have got alot of their young players who are as good as Wilshere on show today if anybody is interested. Boring game so far.

Ronaldo just scored his millionth goal of the season inside four minutes. Records tumbling all over the place.

Even did the dance with Ade afterwards.

39 league goals. Ridiculous.

1:0 to Schalke in the german cup final too; bloke said that they have turned over 40 odd players in two seasons. Equally ridiculous.

2:0, great finish by Huntelaar.

Schalke are such a poor team.

Real madrid game is being played at a ferocious pace.

Ronaldo has destroyed England and Spain. Once he wins a title with Madrid, he should move on to Inter or Milan and dominate that league as well.

I've noticed a lot of fans, particularly from the two Manchester clubs, having a go at Tevez in the last couple of days. The main criticism is his saying that going to Boca would be difficult because of financial reasons, while he would desire to be closer to his family. I'm just wondering how much informaiton we have on the Tevez situation. One of the first questions I have is what is his net salary each month after he has paid Kia Joorabchian for his services? How much of the motivation behind moves is from Tevez and how much is from Joorabchian. I'd like to get a better understanding of his situation. He could be an ass or he could be an unfortunate prisoner

Lille won the league away at PSG yesterday.

Where did you watch that? ESPN? I often try find German league games but rarely get an English commentary stream so just find something else instead.

I'm in Germany at the moment so it was on Channel 1 over here.

It ended in a record 5:0 but I concentrated on the Madrid game for most of the second half. First half was a surprisingly even contest, Duisburg could have had 2-3 goals themselves in that 45mins but their attacking quality was just not quite good enough.

Kun has announced he wants to leave Atletico, speculation is he's off to Real

I wonder if he's got the guts to make that move. I think there's a bigger chance he'll end up at City, especially if they lose Tevez.

I'd bet on him going to Real, myself, and if he does, it would augur well for our chances of signing Benzema.
