    Everyone knows that the FA stands for Fergie Association. In all seriousness I find it ironic Chelsea are claiming racial abuse. Couple of points were made clear though, they're going down hard on diving. Torres 2nd yellow was harsh but he should have been off from the kung fu kick on Cleverly. Chicharito's goal should have been caught by the linesman, cant blame the ref there.

    Hopefully they don't condemn my Arsenal games to Comcast SportsNet. :(

    FSC has been less than stellar for sure. I hope NBC steps up the game.

    I don't know ATW and I'm not a fan of Bayern, but he's definitely right. Bayern(am I spelling it correct?) are beasting this season and look like the best team to root for. I'm not biased, so you can trust me.

    Bayern is indeed doing very well right now but the Bundesliga team I have soft spot for is Dortmund. It might be too small of a sample size but the only time i see them play is in the Champions League and they look magnificent so far. Waste a lot of chances sure but their slick passing is always keeping me glued to the TV whenever they're on.

    United is back on top of the league hooray! Still too much shuffling around the team but at least they're winning!

    What do you guys think of Clattenburg's alleged inappropriate remarks aimed at Chelsea players? Should he be banned from refereeing again?

    There is a Spanish channel that shows the Bundesliga, I catch a couple games from here to there.

    I did see one of the Bayern Munich games earlier this season.

    Ribery is a god.

    I don't know what actually happened. If he actually said what is alleged, he shouldn't be allowed to work again. But without actual proof, it is hard to say.

    Tonight: Real vs. Borussia Dortmund and Schalke vs. Arsenal.

    Two pretty exciting matches!

    Arsenal giving it to Schalke right now, 2-0.

    Also heard Huntelaar might be on his way to Liverpool in the winter transfer.

    He's still playing? :eek: I remember him playing against Mexico in the World Cup 2010.

    Ribery was 75 years old when they played!
