How confident are you that y'all can give United a run for it in the next two months? Pretty demoralizing three weeks.

I'd say they have a good shot. Our form in the EPL has been lackluster the last few matches. We need to improve our play greatly if we expect to hold them off. Jmo

I agree.. Your schedule isn't as friendly as ours either.

The loss at Wolves is painful right now.

At any rate, more Champions League action this week. Chelsea should advance. Man. U has Olympique Marseille at Old Trafford, so that certainly helps their chances.

Man. U marches on. Five years straight into the quarterfinal. Marseille put up a fight, though.

Bayern falters again... they're looking really dumb for not shoring up their defense in January. Oh well, at least Man. U is still in it.

RSL wins first leg of CONCACAF semifinals 2-0! Honestly, Rimando would be a world class keeper if he were 6'. Glad he's short cause otherwise we wouldn't have him.

Also, a little RSL insider rumor...CB Jamison Olave is trying to get citizenship and the buzz is that he wants to play for team USA. This guy is an incredible talent but he's been a bit of a headcase at times and had some very silly red cards that scared off big time Euro teams. He's played a lot smarter the last 2 years. Keep your eye on him.

Was Bayern's match on FSP? I was hoping to watch it, but didn't see it on there.

Three EPL teams in the Champions League quarterfinal, could very easily be four. Excited to see the draw for the final eight.

It played tape delayed at 6pm game day. Fracking heart breaker at the end. Piss poor defending.

I wish they would do one on FSC and one on FSP. Hate Bayern lost. Would like to have seen them advance.

On a side note...are the remaining games played at Wembley, or is it still home and home? I think Wembley is where the final is at this year?

Dani Alves signs a contract extension to stay at Barcelona until 2015. The nucleus to this team should be able to play together for atleast the next three years assuming Puyol can hold up.

USA-Argentina friendly tomorrow night. Should be fun to see how we handle the best player in the world.

Champions League action tomorrow. Aldo, wonder if the FA will suspend Rooney?

RSL vs Saprissa. 2nd leg of CONCACAF semifinals. RSL won their home leg 2-0, so I'm expecting a good result.

So Schalke and Madrid are basically through to the next round. Makes things uninteresting next Wednesday. Inter was embarrassing.

Tomorrow's games will be incredible. Obviously, ManU-Chelsea. But the Barcelona Shahktar game is going to be very interesting. Barcelona has notoriously struggled against Eastern European teams and Shahktar's results this year in the Champions League has been impressive.

fairly entertaining match this past Saturday between the New York Redbulls and Philadelphia United. New York should have won, but at least two shots clanged off the frame and some seriously dumb lapses in awareness led to a United victory 1-0.

Nani would be a quality player if he didn't attack only with the interest of being fouled. He makes nice cuts and would score more goals if he didn't wait for smallest touch to send him to the floor. This is my rant.
