Stuttgart were supposed to start by stopping Messi from playing. That didn't work, did it? What a left foot he's got and the way he drifts and ghosts into positions is first rate. He ain't bad, you know.
I know we dont like to see Chelsea win but with them out of the CL now they will have a week to rest before they come to OT. I would have preferred to see them win and then we could have put them out later. We will have 3 big matches in a week which could be costly. Thankfully we dont have major injury problems at the moment.
In relation to the Mickey Mouse cup, (europa league) I hope liverpool win 1-0 and take the tie to extra time. that should burn them out and hopefully they wont be fully recovered by Sunday.
Of couse i hope they get beat in extra time, but who doesn,t
C scott Bravoooooooooo ....
