What a perfromance 4-0 against Lazio. It was great to see Veron at his best on a day that the club took a big step forward. Seeing that dirty prick Sinisa Mihaljovic sent off was icing on the cake.
Dirty Racist Prick actually, he's the dude that made some racist remarks to Vieira a while back.
Man Yoo were just too good for Rangers, even when they brought on Bellion, Fletcher and Kleberson they still looked a cut above Rangers. Forlans goal was a beaut, he's really starting to find his feet now and looks class.
But whoever doubted Fergie.
RVN was unlucky not to get the match ball, denied twice for his third. His delicate chip deserved a goal. Keano man of the match for me, for all the **** he produced last year he really has looked the goods this year. Ever since the Newcastle game where he abosolutely towelled Bowyer up and commanded the midfield he has looked like that old Keane that used to dominate games.
Ronaldo played alright, i believe that was his first full game. United's back 4 was fairly dominant, bar some little runs Silvestre and Ferdinand tried to make when they forgot they were Central Defenders. Rangers wont get near Stuttgart in Germany so they can start planning for the UEFA.
Chelsea were fantastic. Lampard, Mutu, Duff, Cudicini and Veron were all brilliant. There back four repelled all that Lazio threw at them.
AC Milan had Nesta sent off but still managed to win 1-0 away which is a fair effort. They're looking pretty formidable to be honest.
Damn! Celta Vigo. I don't mind Ajax, or rather admire they're style of play and particuarly they're captains, Rafael Van Der Vaart. It would be a shame to see Ajax miss qualificatoin to the nest round but that looks a real possibility now.
It will be interesting to see tonight how Arsenal and Inter perform. Arsenal is stuck in a must win situation and Inter are coming off a 3-0 loss away to Spartak Moscow.
Does anyone know what game ESPN has on tommorow morning?
