The same insult that has been trotted out towards Arsenal every time they've been mentioned the past few years is solid?

Doesn't take much to impress USCjr fans I guess.

Calm down. Just ribbing a little bit. Nothing but respect for Arsenal here.

Let's cut your payroll down to our size and see what kind of team you have left... The fact that we can beat you with what we have says enough for me.

I'm sorry that our youth academy develops our youth into world class players. I guess we should just not pay the guys who are the reason the club is so successful.

Chelsea with the W today, Real Madrid/Lyon draw. Can't wait to watch Manchester United do work tomorrow :)

Predictions on both matches? I know Man U is going to be without a player or two.

Inter-Bayern is, it's just not live. Kind of blows, but Premier League teams are always going to get better coverage.

Yeah I don't really care too much to watch it on replay once I know the result.

In regards to predictions, I'll say 1-0 United, even though the Velodrome could give them lots of problems. And 1-1 draw between Bayern and Inter.

Man. U/Marseille draw. The Red Devils should take care of business at Old Trafford.

Some absolutely boring games today. I guess that's what we always get when you have Inter playing and United on the road in the CL.

DVR'd it. Just watched it. Milan can suck it. Bayern played a better game and deserved the win. Nice job guys.

Bayern came as close to dominating as you can without scoring a lot of goals. Led possession 54-46 and had several more shots. It could have easily been 3-0 had a couple of shots been inside the post instead of hitting them.

Kraft was impressive. I still want Neuer but I won't be heartbroken if Kraft is the guy for the future.

Yeah, besides the games being 0-0 except for that last minute goal by Gomez, the atmospheres were pretty drab. Spoiled by the atmosphere of PL, Bundesliga, and La Liga stadiums. All Milan fans could do is whistle.

Rio Ferdinand was tweeting that the Marseille fans were doing the same thing when Man. U was in possession.

Inter missed an array of great shots as well. pretty fair match with a costly mistake by Julio Cesar at the end

Tough loss for Liverpool today. Lost 3-1 to West Ham United. Had a chance to tie it up late in the game buy West Ham fired another in around 88' to put a dagger in Liverpool's chances.

And Birmingham upset Arsenal today for the League Cup. Birmingham stuffed home the winning goal in the 89th minute.

Liverpool plays Man U at Anfield next Sunday. Crucial to see how Dalglish handles Manchester this time around. Lost to them earlier in their FA cup match earlier in January.

That was the Carling Cup today and it was absolutely hilarious to see them choke that. I was seriously laughing at the demise of their only real chance at winning a trophy this year.

Wonder if Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea, and Man U will all advance in Champions League? Looks like they all have a solid chance.
