    Why can't Liverpool just play with two strikers up top?
    And replacing Balo for Lambert? WTF?

    Lallana + Sterling + no Balo = win

    I've really grown to dislike Mario after his stint with Milan. Milan are so much more fun to watch now, and Liverpool seems more natural and creative without him.

    "Nediljkova družina", one spot ahead of you. :)

    Nah, there are 33 gameweeks to go, and your team looks solid. You're 70 points behind the leader, you can catch up to him in a few weeks time by picking the right captain and, truthfully, having a bit of luck. It's all about the matchups. Just don't get too trigger happy with transfers, those -12 points set you back a bit.

    I'd like to know as well. Got up this morning to watch it, but was pretty sleepy at that point. I know after the match they both went straight into the tunnel without acknowledgement.

    Nonetheless, another victory for Chelsea!

    Why was Wenger all up on Mou's boobs?

    I assume Mou was taunting some of the fans because you can almost make out Wenger saying "get away" at the end of that clip. Childish as usual.

    I can't remember the names but someone from Chelsea gave a player from Arsenal a fairly hard challenge and received a yellow for it.

    Arsene came out of his area complaining to Mourinho and decided to give him a little shove, and Mourinho was just telling him the whole time to get back to his area.

    The whole thing was pretty funny and probably came from earlier in the week Mourinho talking a lot of mess about Arsenal and their manager.

    The Champions League Group Stage regulations will change next year. From now on, the domestic champions of the top seven countries plus the titleholder will be placed in the first pot. Right now, that would mean Zenit St. Petersburg would be top seeded, ahead of the runner-ups from the main leagues like Spain, England and Germany.

    Platini continues his crusade to demolish this competition. Unbelievable...

    Been reading alot of different articles on City to pursue Marco Reus in the summer when he could be had for only 20 million euros. Apparently if he remains unsigned by Dortmund once the summer transfer window rolls around he can be had for 20 million instead of his true worth on the transfer market which would probably be at least double that. There are alot of other teams tied to Reus and I have a bad feeling he's going to be another in the long line of Dortmund players to move to Bayern, but I would love to have Reus on City for the 2015-16 campaign.

    The Reus buyout clause next summer is 25mil, according to Rummenigge.

    Don't think City have a chance, the favourites should be Bayern, Real, Barca (in that order).

    That's ridiculous, City can and will overpay him more than the rest of these guys who already have a glut in the attacking positions.

    Top players with offers from Bayern, Barca, Real, etc don't want to join a no-substance and no-reputation club like City that fails to advance past the top 16 in CL again and again.

    This is the internetz, I'm married to Jessica Alba, I take a helicopter to work to beat traffic, Lebron and Messi party with me in Hawaii, and Bugatti is my Sunday car.
