CC - re Theo, how much does he look like a young Henry with pace to burn etc and being used as a winger. Tellin ya, AW will mould him into another TH, hopefully as good.

f*cking freaky!

I never saw Thierry at 17, but Theo's touch and turn of speed is incredible. Quite possibly showing more potiential than Thierry at the same age? Some of those 1st touches 1 on 1 against both Pompey and Chelski's defence were insane!

He's faster than Henry right?

Great news about the big man for PSV, have been at work all day sweating on it. Got a message from a Scouser mate confirming he was fit, although I was convinced it was a g-up:lol::lol:

No prob :lol:

They reckon Theo is right there speed wise on the paddock with TH.

AW has gone with Gilberto at CB! Good stuff.

Lineup -

Lehmann
Gallas / Toure / Gilberto / Clichy
Hleb / Denilson / Fabregas / Ljungberg
Baptista / Adebayor

Bench - Almunia, Aliadiere, Diaby, Djourou, Henry, Traore, Walcott.

Looks like Kolo is lining up at right back, not Gallas. Gil and Gal in the middle.

Look forward to Kolo bombing down the right!

0-0 at the break.

We've had the better of possession. Lehmann hasn't had much to do which is good.

Had a few half chances and looking like creating the openings at regular raids. Have to be patient.

We didn't get the goal, but just as important is that we haven't conceded. The longer it goes without them scoring the more they'll try and take their 0-1 advantage. The will make the counter attack less dangerous.

If we happen to get one now, we'll be the ones with all the running.

Keep the sheet clean and keep patient going forward.

C'mon!

1-1 FT.

Unlucky lads, tried hard and got into the position to take it. Then got hit from a freekick which resulted in a header.

One man was really the difference in the tie - Alex. He was brilliant for PSV at the back.

Plenty to like about the Fabregas/Denilson partnership in the middle of the park. Both 19 years of age! Diaby and Walcott off the bench. Clichy etc, some very good signs with all those guys doing it at CL level.

Important thing now is to keep this good season progressing and make sure we make the CL for next season. There's been so many positives, so we need to make sure we finish it off.

:lol: I thought the ESPN comms were cr*p. Who pays these guys at SBS, you have to wonder if they watch any games at all. Talking about Gilberto at the back and not in the middle and that it's a dissapointing end to the season for them. Forster has nfi! :lol: Now he's talking about Wenger not going defensive when we got 1-0. PSV were there for the taking, not sure what geame he was watching. Clowns :lol:

It is a big blow, to go out like that. Something has to be done about our finishing I feel, how many games this season have gone by where we lost through not taking our chances.

Frustrating stuff

you got that right.

if you ever watch the world game on sunday's, you'd know that.

I remember one weekend, talking about sydney fc, he actually said he switched it off after 20 minutes, and then he spent 15 minutes on lecturing us as to why sydney lost

Foster has no idea about tactics and thinks anyone who can effectively nullify Barchhhhelllonnaaaaa are defensive, boring and not good for the game. f**k off Fozzie.

Just got into work. A mate told me that they (SBS) also said AC Milan had gone through with a late goal to Kaka. They then said 5 minutes later that the goal was in fact in extra time and they are still playing :lol:
