Ipswich Town from 2-0 down at half time to win it 5-3 Amazing
"El diving competition" with retarded lithuanian commentator. I'm sad.
Goal after just 23 seconds, impressive.
What kind of complex has Real Madrid every time they play against Barcelona? Apart from filmed fouls and injuries and totally retarded referees, ofc.
Stunning goal.
As an Arsenal fan my opinion is inherently biased but IMO Van Persie is one of if not the best player in the world in his current form.

If he gets hurt Arsenal are absolutely fecked.
Thats a great goal.

Anyone else watches the Barca-R.Madrid match? Friggin awesome Barca.

Messi is a baus.
Fantastic goal.
...and some divers like Messi and Christina are in chase of Ballon d'Or.
Last nights El Classico was great to watch. Madrid started so well by pressing high up the pitch and preventing the Barca back 4 time on the ball. The thing is, it could only happen for a while and soon they couldn't keep the intensity up and this allowed Barca time on the ball to pass the ball around and set up those triangles. The equaliser was a typical Barca move, Messi (undoubtedly the best player in the world at the moment) driving forward and taking 3 players out of the equation by a simple pass and it was 1-1

2nd half was all Barca, although Madrid had their chances. The most telling at 2-1 when Rondaldo missed a clear header, a minute later Barca score with Fabregas netting after an inch perfect cross from Alvies.

Anyone who says that they don't like the way Barcelona play doesn't deserve to have eyes. As for the diving, well yes there was a bit of that (from both sides) along with the typical Mourinho tactic when his team gets outplayed of kick the opposition (Ramos should have seen red at least) but I ask you, tell me a game in the modern day that doesn't have examples of diving. I have watched both the Blackburn game and Stoke game and have seen examples of diving. There are examples of diving week in week out in every league....to say otherwise is just burying you head in the sand.

but you cannot compare their diving, obviously, christina is better at it..
Ajax v AZ Alkmaar was postponed after the keeper for AZ was sent off...kicking a fan.

The fan had run onto the pitch and attacked him, so the keeper gave some swift retaliation. Ref sends him off and the AZ coach took his team off.

John Terry: ****ing white ****.
Wow, those shirts Liverpool wore yesterday for warm up before the Wigan match were weird.
How come? Because they supported Suarez?
Quote from TexasLTU :How come? Because they supported Suarez?

Yep..in fact it was out of order in my view.

Suarez has admitted he used a racist term towards Evra and as such been punished accordingly. For Liverpool to come out with all this "we are all Suarez" shite that I would expect to see from the bleating Celtic fans who claim it's their historic heritage to sing songs in support of the IRA is just embarrassing. And for Suarez defence of the term he used not being an insult in his homeland....well guess what, you're not in your homeland now, you play by our rules.

Suarez has been charged of using a racist term...not being a racist, small difference that seems to have been missed. BTW the Liverpool official statement basically boils down to "Suarez didn't do it has he has a black dad and anyway Evra started it anyway by being nasty to him....."
Sorry Mackie, but that's an utter load of trip you've just written.

Ill respond properly later when i have time.

You can't know what you've done wrong before you've done it. So this statement is irrelevant.
I'm not a Liverpool fan but I think Suarez' punishment is totally out of proportion. Yes he lives here and he should be more familiar with English culture and what's an acceptable way to address a black man, but simply calling him 'black' as a noun seems fairly lightweight. He didn't insult him, he didn't call him names, he just called him 'black'. I believe him when he says he didn't mean it as a derogatory term. Maybe Evra ought to have a higher opinion of the word.

Terry on the other hand is a racist **** and an embarrassment to the national side.
Dunno what Terry has done now, guess I'll have to google.

Ignorance is not a valid defence. This is not a 9 year old kid we are talking about but a grown adult. Also it's not like he as a newcomer to European football fresh off the plane from Uruguay either, he's been in Europe for a number of years and is bound to known that if you say the 'n' word to a black person there's a decent chance he's going to become pissed off very quickly
