This morning's text conversation.

Brother in Law: Vidic had surgery on The same knee. 8 weeks at least
Smackie: Shit
Brother in Law: I think Fuck is more appropriate
Smackie: But then what will I say when hes out for the season?
Brother in Law: Good point. Maybe "there's always next year"


After watching Wednesday and Sunday, it's going to be a long season...

[Frank Gallagher]

SAF will probably buy another striker in the January window as cover for Vidic, Jones, Smalling and Ferdinand. (Where's Mr. Versatile, O'Shea, when you need him?)

Toon army surrendered to the red army without even putting up so much as a fuss.
(I know, I know...the first 10-15 mins of second half I thought it was going to be exciting but then they fizzled again)

[godsshoeshine]

pretty much can give up all hope of a result with collo out, at least until krul comes back

unreal that we didn't spring for a defender in the summer

This is exactly what I expected when I woke up yesterday:

Arsenal 0 - 2 Schalke
Malaga 1 - 0 AC Milan
Ajax 3 - 1 Manchester City
Dortmund 2 - 1 Real

Ok, maybe it's just what I hoped would happen.

This of course makes City the favorite to win the league again.

Naw - United have quality in depth to challenge on all fronts this year. Just as long as we get our backs healthy again soon and keep them healthy.

The edge we have is our bench are not egotistical prima donnas like those on shitty's bench. They are quality players who understand that rotation is not demotion.

I love that at the end, they give you a link with translations.

We should start doing that for Mankie's posts.

I don't think this could have gone worse for UEFA:

Real Madrid v Manchester United
Arsenal v Bayern
Milan v Barcelona
Shakhtar Donetsk v Borussia Dortmund
Valencia v Paris St. Germain
Celtic v Juventus
Galatasaray v Schalke 04
Porto v Malaga
