I'm not sure how Buffel is rated on here but I would nominate him. Good at keeping possession and very tidy player on the ball with good close control. I don't remember him getting much praise during his spell at Ibrox though.

It makes sense getting Moyes in, can see what they're trying to do, but building up a legacy on the back of Ferguson's success (or even trying to continue it) is a very ambitious move from United. Despite the reservations with Moyes (doing nothing in Europe, not beating a top 4 side away) I think it is the right decision to appoint him as manager. I mean, who else could they get? Mourinho is obvious one but it's clear they're looking for long term success rather than a few seasons of winning trophies before needing to find a new manager again. Go down that road and they could end up like Chelsea, and no one wants to end up like Chelsea.
Having said that, this is fantastic, I know this Hitler clip has been overdone but still...

Anyone else think that Madrid might turn this around tonight?
Nah, not for me. Madrid are capable of scoring 3 goals tonight but I can't see them keeping a clean sheet against Dortmunds attack. 2-2.
-
I can't imagine all the hospitality seats and neutral fans helping much with the atmosphere.
I know what you mean but still, did you see hear the Dortmund fans tonight and the Bayern fans last night? I think Wembley will be a bit more energetic in contrast to the Wigan v Man City game
-
Incredible performance by Dortmund tonight, quite rightly most of the praise will go to Lewandoski but Gundogan was superb in the midfield, in total control against Alonso and Khedria.
All German final then, the atmosphere is going to be something else! God, imagine playing your rivals in the final of the CL, I don't think I could take that pressure if it was us and celtic, my heart would pack up!
-
Wonder what kind of reception Gotze will get from the home fans.
Anyway, think it'll be a score draw tonight or Dortmund winning it by the odd goal, and Madrid to beat them convincingly in the second leg to go through. Would much prefer to see a Bayern/Madrid final than a Bayern/Dortmund one in any case.
-
Over 300 games since Barcelona have not had the majority possession, 62% tonight, what a team!
Bayern are the new dominant force in Europe now I think, hope they win it against Madrid in the final. It would be a shame for Heynckes if they didn't manage to do it this year, considering this was the team he built and they've came so close twice before.
-
Reading this thread made me realise how many talented young midfielders Germany have just now. Although it would probably be better for the German national team if they didn't all play roughly the same position.
Could do will a few strikers coming through the youth system in the near future.

I liked him. I don't remember him doing much really but he was good at retaining possession and acting as cover for the defence. He also proved himself very competent in European games and didn't look out of place at all.
Although I can understand why some don't think he's anything special. He didn't have the aggression that Thomson had or the technical ability that Mendes showed, still though, Hemdani was a very good player for us.
It's amazing to think some of the quality we had in midfield just a few years ago....compared to now.

Fucking hell Tiger!

It seems strange to me that Alonso would want to go back to Liverpool. Living in his home country, playing some of the best football of his career with one of the best teams in the world. Why would he want to go back to Liverpool where there's not even a guarantee of Champions League football?
Very odd.
-
After the 1-0 win over Celtic, didn't we play Hibs away and they held us to a 1-1 draw? Might be getting the dates mixed up but I remember Novo having at least 5 chances to win it and making an arse of it everytime.
Can't remember who Celtic lost against to put us top again.

How the mighty have fallen! Cunt.
"Well done, he's 13"
"Game, set and match Owen!"

I wonder what it's like in Fernando's head.
-
I'd say he'd still be a better option to have rather than Kyle or Sandaza, In a ideal world we would be buying and developing fairly young players but that doesn't look like happening. I know he's not the player he was but he could still do a job. Yes from me.
-
It wasn't a red card. Nani had his eyes on the ball and showed no intent to harm the Madrid player. Yellow would have sufficed.
I didn't know so many people are scared to disagree with Roy Keane on here.

United got there tactics spot on tonight. Giggs and Rafael marked Ronaldo out the game. Apart from his goal, I can't remember him doing anything of note. Having said that, it wasn't just a tap in, the control he put on the ball on the slide was brilliant. In the first half Man U counter attacked efficiently and had the better chances on the break. If it had stayed 11 v 11 when Man U went 1-0 up I couldn't see Real scoring. For the 10 minutes after the sending off Reals attacking play was brilliant. So much more space and it's the best game Modric has played in about a year.
Never a sending off though.
And if God exists, Clive Tyldesley should lose the power of his voice.

Was a weakened team aye. They have given the league up.
Barcelona have lost 3 of their last 4 games!
Hence the thread
-
Good decision by Ally in the second half to move Templeton into a central attacking position just behind the strikers, saw a lot more of the ball and we were much more fluid in transitions of possession.
-
Imagine that happening to Rangers, there would, quite rightly, be mass protest and boycotts. Thing is with Cardiff, I've seen very little aggravation about the situation. For me, that's the worst thing about it. The fans are happy to sit and watch Malaysians totally destroy the identify of the club. Compare that with their main rivals Swansea, spent an age in the lower leagues before discovering a style of football that allowed them to work their way into the position they're in today with their identity and integrity intact. Cardiff will never have that.

This is by far the worst thing Joey Barton has ever done. Disgrace.

Salmond the opportunist extravagant

I lean toward independence but that was so cynical of Salmond to do that. So transparent what his motive was it was embarrassing. Possibly the greatest moment in British tennis history and he tries to exploit the situation for political gain.
He's done more harm than good for independence.
