But you didn't answer the question Basil...who did they get in the next round?


Silly.


One would think that an unbeaten bettor's best friend would be playing in the semi finals of THE major European competition...but they're NOT.big grin



I wouldn't be so happy about it if I were you. Thanks to Chelsea's successes in reaching the latter stages regularly over the last few years, England still has four Champions League spots. If English teams repeat their lack of progression to the Quarter Finals next season, they will be reduced to THREE CL places the following season, with Italy getting an extra spot instead. This might already have happened if not for Chelsea reaching the semi-finals last season and winning it when they did.
England has Chelsea to thank for still having four CL places presently. No-one else.

Yeah, piss poor Bill. Didn't even look like scoring a goal. A Hull defender scored one. £100m spent, nothing to show for it, back to the drawing board I reckon.

Aye. That's 4 points for Hull this season from Libpool.
I think our biggest success this season could be avoiding the Europa League wink

I hope Jose shut the door after himself.

In German Cup news, Bayern Munich miss all of their penalties vs. arch-rival Borussia Dortmund as the latter reach the final.

(That was a big-time handball and Bayern were denied a penalty kick.)

Half the Bayern team did a John Terry CL 2008 Final as they slip and miss their penalty kicks.

careful thomas, you will have bas back with a blow-by-blow spreadsheet!!
Personally i dont mind mourinho. Hes funny.
Unlike ferguson and one or two others, hes says a lot tongue in cheek and much of it is deflection or deliberate wind up.
You just gotta spot the invisible wink.
Hes a good manager but his press conferences arent to be taken too seriously.

One thing about Mourinho that nobody can seem to get right is that his name doesn't end in an ee-oh sound. Being Portuguese (and more importantly, his own pronunciation) dictates that it's just oh, or even almost oo. Somewhere in between oh and oo.

Simples.

Nah. I trod on his foot once.
On the way to the press box grub.
Then got him on the way back to my seat too.
Then my mate trod on his other foot on the way to the loo.
And again on the way back.
How we laughed.

Wenger's wife:
"Arsene, darling, take this... it will help with the vomiting. I told you not to watch the Chelsea game tonight – you knew you only had a tiny mathematical chance of winning the league so it's no use you crying and throwing up now Chelsea have beaten Leicester. Just sip this... it will help you sleep. Close your eyes and try to think of something else. Here, I'll tuck you in. Goodnight Arsene... I'll go back to my own bedroom now. Sleep well dear."

What do you all think about Rodgers' position at Liverpool? No doubt the season has been a big disappointment, with none of the targets met. The last half dozen games or so have been dire, and the season looks like slowly fizzing out. Should the owners let him spend and make changes in the summer, or get rid of him once it's over? Who could replace him? Klopp? Rafa? To be honest, I'm a bit undecided but nothing would surprise me...

I think the Leicester Manager acts like a big hard man because he's called Nigel. It's the boy named Sue syndrome. Either that, or he's a dick...

Re the leicester manager verbal attack at knob journo.
Ive always been wary in life of people who bristle and glare with that false tough guy act because they arent comfortable in their position and havent got the brain to stop pretending they can fight everyone. You know, Show no weakness, dont relax, be on guard with journalists, act like you could still beat up all your players, etc.
There are 3 of this sort in the premier league. Pearson is one, all that square jaw "come on then son take a swing if you think you are hard enough" glare at everyone and everything. Alan chewing gum pardew is another. And tim sherwood is the third.
They are all so on edge in their jobs that they think the tough guy hard-ass is their fall back position. Phoney bollocks.
Watch them in their next press conferences, and tell me im not right!!

As for brendan, i dont know. Difficult to suss what liverpool hierarchy are thinking.
They could look at his mistakes and go, do we want this man let loose on our summer budget? or are they being realistic about expectations after losing suarez and the injuries.
One thing is for sure, if he keeps his job and starts next season, they will have to hit the ground running or he will be gone by october.
