Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is convinced the Red Debils can bring home the Champions League this season after a seven-year wait.
http://www.teamtalk.com/football/sto...648408,00.html
Debils? Sounds like a ManC fan is doing the writing....? Or what club is Alex talking about?

Tonights Arsenal-CSKA Moscow Champions League match was unbelievable. Especially Rosicky's shot at the end of the first half was absurd. The goal was wide open and the CSKA goalkeeper was nowhere near the goal. However the ball went directly to his hands.
Result is 0-0.

Tell me about it! With my crappy internet (still really slow) i turned on the tv to play some XBOX 360 but low and behold, my Gunners were on TV! I'm sure you can imagine my joy at being able to watch them play, and what a fast paced match by them! And i'm sure you can imagine my dismay watching all 6 goal-bound shots just miss their targets. Rosicky...i'd kick him in the arse if i could for missing that one...i could have done better, messed up ankle and all!

My top three finishers : Lyon,Ac Milan, and surprise surprise Chelsea.
Just waiting until Shevi starts scoring again. Drogba got a new deal so he need not score so much anymore...

FC Barcelona is my all time favorite. And for Galatasaray, I don't even care any more. They have only 1 point.

Anyone [apart from Aussies] ever seen film clips of Aussie Rules football?
It's as big a passion in Southern states of Aus as soccer is in Europe or Gridiron in the States.
Has been a league comp since 1898.
Rugby rules up North.
Aussie Soccer is starting to get a larger following now since the good effort in the World Cup, but it's still way behind Rules and Rugby.

Yeah,
did watch some Aussie rules football back in late 1980īs I think. pretty rough games. A couple of times one guy climbed ( =ran) the back of the opposite side player to get higher and catch the ball. Iīm sure the football shoes left nice marks on the back...

Yep, it's pretty tough, that's for sure, no helmets and armour like the Gridiron boys.
They call those leaps you mentioned marks, and they can be very spectacular, some have to be seen to be believed, it's one of the things that make the game great for Aussies like me.
Been a member of my club for many years, but no success in the big final [Grand Final]
We were in four Grand Finals in the 90's and lost the lot, groan!
What do you think of the standard of Aussie Soccer?
Didn't do to bad in the World Cup, and I think they beat England a few years ago.

Some excellent players like Mark Viduka and Harry Kewell.And many more. I did play the Championship manager game so thatīs where you learn players and their home countries rather quickly.

West Ham:
Argentinian striker Carlos Tevez has been ordered to wear a Brazil shirt in training for two weeks by his West Ham team-mates as punishment for his walk-out in a Premier League match.
Ooppsss...

He must have learned his lesson. I only watched him playing in national team and I must say he is promising.

Ive been watching some of the FA cup on Fox Soccer Channel here in Texas. What does the FA cup consist of? Just teams in the UK?
They need to have the world cup every year instead of every two.
I want to go to a couple MLS games here in Houston. Our Dynamo are quite good.

@ Tim :
In the FA cup, there are only English teams, no Scottish teams for example. Contrary to the 1ere League, more clubs can compete (about 600 IIRC), of course it's a cup, not a championship.
The World cup occurs every 4 years.
I did not know Houston's name was Dynamo, it reminds me Eastern Europe clubs, that's fun, I imagine the Partizan Los Angeles or Lokomotiv Seattle
