Magic Lamps

Torres is actively impeding our play. ladyboy tackling marin.

Rafa's tactics are so average. Under Di Matteo we might have conceded easy at times but he tried tactics that would actually develop the team including great pressing and high line that nearly killed ManUtd

has Torres hold up one single ball today? also one of our main problems, we are not clever enough to grind out a result when the motivation and energy is down

http://www.theweek.co.uk/football/premier-league/51502/alexis-sanchez-puts-big-guns-alert-fabregas-turns-back-arsenal According to reports is dissatisfied with his lack of opportunities at Barcelona. We wanted him 2 years ago (sry, did not find the threat)when he signed for them and his best is yet to come, could even be cheaper than he was then. Would be a great addition, fast, strong, versatile mainly out and out winger with great finishing, would give us the raw pace and strength on the wings we need.

Mata, Ramires are absent, Torres is as abysmal as always, Hazard is lazy, Marin by far our best player so far, Bertrand also decent.

this is so much like the corinthians game. Also torres missing shitloads of chances

uuuuuhh cech do sparta have a player more than us on the field?

Liverpool exiting the europa league to fully concentrate on what? their fight against mediocrity?

lol torres has decided to use 1km/h shots today

as soon as torres got the ball i was sure we would not score

we are lucky not to concede for a second time.

Either we are taking this too lightly or sparta are better than expected. Either way they will make mistakes and tire at some stage due to their lack of pratice

interesting to see hazard on the right and marin on the right. IMO marin is better at the right side cos he is a good crosser whilst Hazard is better on the left du to his shooting ability.

Torres not going for those crosses a main reason for our failure this season.

decent lineup, weakened but still strong. Hope Ake will feature.

he has always been quality and a perfect example that magicians do not need to be midgets who get bullied all the time and hence are useless as soon as their opponents are stronger and faster than them.

You certainly got a point, winning the EL is not really the glory we seek but we have nothing to do with the teams who have won this cup and simply shoudl try to add new trophies to our cabinet and many players surely would have this cup over a 5th Fa Cup. It would be an almighty shame to lose the 2nd place in uefa 5 year ranking to Germany even though ePL is still best, so whilst the EL has been a collecting platform for German teams in recent years hence giving them the opportunity to gain uefa points, we should now be the ones profiting from the ridiculous system that wins in the EL grant nearly as many points as wins in the CL.

IMO we should prioritize the EL over the FA Cup. We always win the FA Cup but we can complete the European Quadruple by winning the Europapokal, which has only been done by 3 teams so far. Of all teams in the EL only Atletico is better than us while in the Cup we got no chance against both Manchester teams.

Ref influenced the game slightly in Utds favour. Astonishing, this last corner could have decided it. Fair result in the end. Real had more, Utd the better chances.

When exactly has Rooney lost his pace?

de Gea is shit controlling his box, but his shot stopping and handling is excellent today

van Persie u dick

What a waste Kagawa has been at Utd, never should have left BVB. He is not made for fast paced, physical games as this one. That is why he is best in the Bundesliga, where he has time and a team set up for him. He was the best player in Germany, his departure handed Bayern the title, but in England he is mediocrity, has done nothing Utd couldn't do without.

I'd pick messi everytime , he can dribble past the entire opposition and score. Ronaldo is more versatile and physically stronger but even though he is damn fast he seldom beats more than one defender if any. They are about equal in terms of finishing,b ut messi is even better creating for himself. Ronaldo is extremely predictable, he will always run into space and looks to shoot, but Messi can also create. While both are not the brightest bulbs in the box, Messi's footballing intelligence is way higher, he can spot mistakes in the defence's positioning and exploit spaces, Ronaldo always takes the obvious run or shot so can always be tracked, admittedly you sometimes still can do nothing about it. Don't get me wrong, I despise Messi as well as Ronaldo as characters but I admire their ability and ronaldo's combination of physical and technical excellence is particularly fascinating, but both are overhyped. These big games in the CL should be where they are rated and both have done fine but nothing as superhuman as the the meida make of them and their crazy scoring records in that shooting gallery league.

Ronaldo might be a great athlete and brillant all round player but he is not really much better than the rest, u always know what he will do next
