5-4 today.. The first match was 2-0 so 7-4 on aggregate.

They must be very desperate... It's sad and amazing how weak is their squad.. A few years ago they had Figo, Rui Costa, Nuno Gomes, Pauleta etc etc.. Their current squad is a joke, just look at their bench.

Scored twice against Portugal U21, they lost 5-4, must have been a crazy game.

Thanks Real but you can keep your garbage... I would be happy to see playing Cech in a top club but we don't need Khedira. Let him joins Arse or wherever he wants to go.

Well, not really. They sacked our manager after his first official match(we lost against Northern Irelannd in Hungary), now we have an interim coach for three games. Our squad is pretty weak too... I think Greece will get the 1st place and Romania will get the 2nd, Hungary and Finland will go for the playoff round(3rd place). Northern Ireland started very well but I'd be surprised if they'd finish in the top three.

That's correct but we can only name 17 non-HG players in our squad so we need to sing some. Also, we have just one Enlgish national team player which is ridiculous.

Because squad numbers are not as important as they were before. Boulahrouz, Sidwell and Di Santo were our nr. 9, Gallas was the nr. 10 at Arsenal, Lassana Diarra was the nr. 10 for Real Madrid etc etc...

What are your expectations from our group? You guys seem to be the strongest team in the but you started so poorly. If you beat Northern Ireland and we beat the Faroe Islands our group would be balanced, especially if Finland and Romania plays a draw tonight.

Congratulations! Is he your first child?

That's correct, but Fabregas was one the best player and the captain of Arsenal while Thiago was not that outstanding in Barca. I think Thiago had never been a star there. He was a starter for a few months but never become intouchable and Barcelona didn't really wanted to keep him. Fabregas was a World Cup and Europe Cup winner and one of the best midfielders in the world at the age of 23. Thiago is yet to leave his mark. He has the talent and plays in a very good team but his carreer is nowhere near to Fabregas'. I like Thiago a lot but he needs to improve a lot in the next few years.

Thiago is good but he hasn't proved his class yet. He has won a lot of trophies but played only 5 games for Spain, 100 for Barcelona and 25 for Bayern.. Fabregas was the best player and the leader of Arsenal as a teenager while Thiago was just a player from a dozen in Barca.

One match out of 50-60, not a big deal in my opinion. Most Asian/American fans want to visit the Bridge anyway...

Your response to BlueLyon was written in a big red font, now it's white.

Monaco, Roma, Inter maybe.

This red font is horrible I almost threw up...

Is Lampard, Terry or Cech able to grow a beard?

Sorry but what does CFK mean?

Why is the match starting at 14.05? Why not 14.00?

Did I miss something? Where is Messi going?

Sky Italia is not reliable at all... Wallace's loan spell is a different story: he is a full-back and could have played on the right wing but Mazzari preferred Jonathan, end of story. But where would Salah play in 3-4-1-2? Striker? Central midfielder? Their fucked up system doesn't suit him at all, they don't use wingers, only full backs.

I don't believe that's true. I googled it, only noname sites came up, no BBC, no Sky, no Guardian but Tribalfootball and other shits. Second, we needed to loan MvG out because one foreign player had to go and we had enough CM's. Also, we only have three wingers and the season is long. Remy is not playing on the wing(I don't know why you wrote that) and we tend to switch to 4-3-3 when Ramires starts. Attackers get injured quite often, we couldn't let Salah go. Not to mention that Inter plays 3-4-1-2 with 2 full-backs on the wings. Why would we send Salah there?

I know Daily Mirror is not BBC but this is pretty interesting: According to Mirror he's going to be available for 20m pounds next summer. The release clause activates in July and Reus is unwilling to open talks about his new contract until the end of the season. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/manchester-city-monitoring-marco-reus-4379221 I don't really like us to go for him but I would be gutted if a rival of us got him for 20M.

If he is fit enough he will definetly start. He played fifteen minutes against Galata. We'll see.

I think they will start with the same eleven that started against Galata. Sczsesny: clearly Chambers-Koscielny-Mertesacker-Gibbs: it's the best available option for him. They only had one defender on the bench on Wednesday (Bellerin). Wenger announced that Monreal could play against us but I don't think he'd prefer the spaniard over Gibbs. Flamini: he will start as Arteta and Diaby are injured. Özil-Cazorla-Sanchez-Ox: Wilshere can replace Cazorla if he is fit enough but I expect these guys to start. Ramsey is out, Rosicky and Poldi usually start on the bench. Welbeck: he will clearly start as Giroud and Sanogo are unavailable. To sum up: nobody got injured until Sunday(you never know at Arsenal) I expect this starting line. The only question is: Cazorla or Wilshere?
