Some great matches in there


Juventus v Dortmund as well!

Going for Chelsea, Barcelona, Atletico, Juventus, Real Madrid (they'll destroy Schalke big time), Bayern, Arsenal and Porto to get through.

They need to get better pundits on SSN for these draws though, proper European football experts. Not people like Tony Gale who said 'Basel have been surprisingly good this season.' I mean seriously?

Few decent ties there to say it's still only the last 32.

Disappointing defeat for us today back to back defeats now. I wasn't able to make the game and I haven't seen any highlights but I have heard that Brentford deserved to win. Marshall did hit the post at 2-1 though which could have changed the game.


It sounded dire, we're heading for mid table again unless we sort this out asap, cos even towards the end of our unbeaten run we weren't playing well!

Regardless of how we do against Charlton next week I think Bolton will beat us.....we've lost our last few games there and Lennon will have them pumped up from the off whereas most games we come out so flat and limp.

Until Gerrard's goal, there was just no belief among Liverpool players or fans. Normally the crowd would have been well up for a night like this but everything was just so flat and subdued all round until the goal. Great free kick from Gerrard though.

They didn't deserve to get through either, Basel are a good side and should have been a couple up at HT. 5 points from the 6 games is a poor return from Liverpool.

Onto tomorrow now, forza Roma!

We've got Charlton away, probably the dullest and most uninspiring draw possible.

Accrington v United would be hilarious at Stanley's tiny ground, hope they can beat Yeovil in the replay although it'll be tough away from home.

Thought Forster should have done better last night, especially for the second goal - he should have come out and claimed that.

Poor performance from United but five wins in a row for them now and I wouldn't be surprised if they make it six on Sunday against Liverpool.

Not sure what Konchesky was sent off for....should have just been a yellow for both.

Harsh red card for Fabianski that. West Ham leading through two Carroll headers and up to 3rd as it stands, go on Big Sam.

Aye, we were rubbish yesterday, I think that's the worst I've seen us play this season. (Only been to home games so didn't see Rotherham, Wolves etc).

We need to stop going behind and start to sort our first half performances out, I can't remember the last time we were leading at HT and we always start the game looking so casual and we don't start performing until we go a goal down! We need to sort it soon, ideally starting next week at Brentford.

Are you going to Bolton? I got my ticket earlier in the week.

Lucky man Diego Costa, surely a red card?


Add in the elbow on Brown and yeah he should have been sent off today, although he's banned for their midweek game at least.

one of their fans had a altercation with Gestede.


First I've heard of that, what happened? Boro can feck off, get in Rudy!

Hope we get another controversial late goal against them at the end of December, preferably a winner right in front of their fans.

That Arsenal game earlier was poor. Foster should have saved the header.

Not sure how Paul Merson can't pronounce 'Fabianski' correctly.....

Gonna be a tough game for them against Basel, they always seem to beat English teams and in this case a point would be enough for them. That and Roma-City are gonna be very interesting.

I might join you.

Okay! Well if City lose tonight but win in Rome (unlikely, but let's say), and then CSKA lose - all three will be on 5 points then....

I'm blagged. Is it head to head or goal difference that splits teams on the same amount of points?

And yeah I'm not sure what De Sanctis was doing either.

City still hanging on in there, last minute equaliser from CSKA just then Even though Roma kept giving the ball away towards the end I still didn't expect them to equalise. Easy to say after he gave the ball away for the equaliser but it was the wrong game to give Strootman some minutes.

Can't believe Liverpool, 4 defeats in a row now is it? Down in 12th. Serious problems there. Can't defend or attack (1 shot on target today and that was the goal).

Great win for us today puts us into the play offs! 2 points off 2nd place! We played poorly first half they were not much better but they scored a goal off a corner which should have been cleared. Steele also made a great save tipping one over when it was hitting the top corner. Second half we really pressed and Rhodes forced a mistake from Silvestri and tapped into an empty net. Marshall then drilled one across the face for us and on the counter attack they hit the post which could have changed the game. Cairney was then sent off for 2 yellows both late tackles and we went on the defensive but Varney picked it up and fell over in the area but the ref gave a pen it was a clear dive but Rhodes sent the keeper the wrong way for his 2nd of the game


Well happy with that result today, best I've felt walking away from Ewood for ages. Leeds can boast about bringing 7k to Ewood every year if they like, they're never gonna get a result here

Tough game at Boro next week, but we haven't lost in 8 so should be going there confident, let's hope we can get a good result.

I've got the new PES, and yeah it's in a different league to PES 14 which was pretty awful in truth. The good new shooting system is a huge relief after last year's ridiculous system.

I've only played a few games on it but I'd definitely recommend buying it. Even the music is better on this year's, they've really pushed the boat out!

So you're suggesting dropping a form player, for a big name?


Barkley isn't really a big name - but he could become one if he gets some playing time.

We've known for years what Downing can and can't do on the international stage, let's see what Barkley can give us.

Downing's off now anyway.

Poor performance from Sweden today. The referee is a bastard, but a good team plays with enough margins to avoid having a game like that decided by refereeing.


Saw a chance that Ekdal had after Montenegro had equalised, should have buried that one.

This England game is exactly what probably everybody expected - slow, predictable and dire. No shots on target from either side in the first half.
