^^^^ The Roma Lazio Rivalry is like no other. It's probabbly the fiercest rivalry known to man.

Lazio fans would rather have their limbs amputated than gift Roma the title.

In 2002, Lazio fans were cheering for Inter so that Roma wont win the title.

Some of em' attended that match spotting the Inter Jersey.

you dey happy because they drew away abi?

why wont he be happy Afterall Fulham are the better team and they came away with a creditable draw in Germany.They should have no problem seeing off Hambug at craven cottage.

Fulham definitely has the advantage especially since Hamburg sacked their coach on Monday and dont have a coach right now.

But football games are played on the field and not on the pages of Nairaland, thats the reason why Chelsea, Arsenal and manure are watching the CL semi finals and finals from home while the better teams are on the field

what kind of a club does that to their coach that took them to the semis?

Not every team worship their coaches like Arsenal does despite seasons of trophylessness

In as Much as I hate Inter, I have to say this is a victory for all Serie A fans and Pain in the butt for Serie A haters .

The Only downside is that none of those players will represent the Azzuri come the worldcup. But Heck who needs Lucio when you've got Chiellini.

Inter made the final with no Italian player on the field Is that not a shame to Italian football?

Tbh, the Italian Media could care less right now.

The T.v News outlets are going bunkers as we speak .

When the hysteria calms down,people might start analysing the Inter having no Italians in the Line Up thingy however y'all should remember it ain't call Inter Milan for nothing.

You should know better

Inter Milan (international) is a foreign version for AC Milan, so expect to see foreigners playing in that club because it's international.

Germany overtakes Italy as the 3rd best league in Europe

So much hatred for Bayern, and so much of it undeserved. I'm a Sechz'ger and even I feel compelled to defend them

1. The myth that they went for Rooney's ankle.
No they didn't. What they did not do was give him extra gentle treatment. If Ferg fields him, what are they supposed to do? Avoid tackles? Stroke his ankles, like there, there, with velvet gloves?

2. They got a clear offside goal against Fiorentina and therefore are evil.
Yeah, right, any British club that had scored like that would have protested to have the goal taken off the scoresheet in a second. Blame the ref, not the team. Fiorentina got an offside goal in the rematch as well, one which was less obvious, sure, but is there really a difference between a clear offside goal and a narrow offside goal?

3. van Bommel - okay, I'll give you that.
You could say that he is a very, very smart player who has perfected the art of the foul. He always fouls within the given limits - he never gets two yellows, but will take the yellow for the team if the situation demands it. You could say he's cynical, you could say he's a genius. If he's on your team, you will say the latter, if he's not, the former. Then again, there are more than enough other players who have incorporated the foul as a means of their play, and only van Bommel has this type of Satanic reputation. At least be consequent.

4. Their defense - apparently horrid
Demichelis is a player who will leave his fullback position and join the midfield, allowing Bayern to play more attack-minded. Naturally this will expose the defense in swift counters, but it's for a good cause. Yesterday Bayern played the first half defending conservatively, without Demichelis moving upfront, and Lyon weren't getting anywhere

5. Bayern - the moneybags
a) Hey, what has kept your club from working its finances right? Bayern have always calculated wisely. Every Mark or Euro they have or had, they earned. There's no russian billionaire in the wings. Hell, when the Bundesliga was founded they were not even picked as members, 1860 were picked to represent Munich. They worked their way up.
b) As has been pointed out before, money is not everything there. Five of yesterdays line-up are from Bayerns youth academy. Btw, Hamburg tomorrow will feature Jarolim, Trochowski and Guerrero. From Hamburgs youth academy? No, from Bayerns.

6. Bayern the most hated club? Really you can't hate them if you know that
- former players feature prominently in Bayerns setup, as they see themselves as a big family. Like, when Gerd Muller struggled to come to terms with life after his football carreer and turning into an alcoholic, they gave him a couching job and, more importantly, a purpose. Who has been helping George Best and Gascoigne?
- you can always turn to Bayern for the good cause. For example, since the Tsunami, Bayern are financing a school in Sri Lanka, but they don't make a fuss about it. They helped saving FC St.Pauli with a beneficiary match.
- Historically, in Nazi Germany, Bayern stood by their Jewish president Kurt Landauer until he was removed by the Nazis. Landauer fled to Switzerland and was reinstated right after the war. (Some do say the moneybag myth dates back to the era of hatred when Bayern were dismissed as the Jewish club, btw)

Deary, i really respect Bayern. I have this weird love for 1860, therefore I am supposed to hate them, but I can only admire them. All I can see is how they do everything right that my club does wrong.

If you really hate Bayern, you can only do it out of envy and self-hatred. They are giving you no reasons.

+1. You was right.

FBS:

+1. You was right.

did they say fulham are mediocre

another German team has been added to their casualty list

the list goes on.   .    .     .
Shaktar Donetsk  ---------- Defending champions EUROPA/UEFA Cup
Juventus ---------------------2 time european champions. The most decorated local champions in Italy
Wolfsburg--------------------The bundesliga defending champion
Hamburg--------------------- A well known, well supported, 1982-83 european champions. Never been relagated since after the World war 1

did someone say Fulham or the mid table teams in England are mediocre?
i laff in Fulham

Lets go Fulham, you just have to deal with Athletico. they aint even as good as Shaktar Donetsk
lets go there

Well enjoy your Poly JAMB success,

When the top teams in Europe are fighting for the top spot in the CL finals after all the EPL teams have been beaten soundly.

I would have been more confident If we were playing an EPL team in the final

haha

Fulham will probably win an european trophy and enter Polythecnic and you'll not win the UCL and be denied admission to a UNI

which is better

sitting at home or studying in Yabatech

Well you can enjoy your Poly Jamb, IF you pass, then you still would need to do direct entry

You are writing Poly Jamb in the first place because the IQ can not withstand University lectures

exactly

and the boi will earn a distinction in a less glamorous institution but will still be able to work in a multi national

however, you will find ur way to the UNI with mago mago and still come out with lower or pass (by losing the final) and will be on the streets hu-su-ling for a job for years

the choice is urs

Multinationals wont even look at someone whose brain was not sharp enough to write UME in the first place

Athletico Madrid currently lie tenth in La Liga, so aren't they a Mid Table team as well?

dayokanu:

Multinationals wont even look at someone whose brain was not sharp enough to write UME in the first place

haha

his brain is not sharp enuff and he got distinction from Yabatech

so someone who got a pass in Osu is the one multi nationals will look at

ure kidding

If he was smart in the first place, He should be in a University and not in a Poly

ure brilliant

he cannot cope with the Uni

hes not like those who bought expo to pass JAMB and failed miserably when they got to UNI

shoe get levels and his contented being a champion in Poly than a nonentity in the UNI

Nonentity and People who failed in Uni should be those who crashed out of the quarter finals like manure abi no be so?

It's as if no one is ready to score in this match.

AC Milan 0 - 0 Fiorentina.

dayokanu:

If he was smart in the first place, He should be in a University and not in a Poly

And when was the last time a German team got admitted into the Uni? 2001!!!!

In the last 5 seasons, United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool have all gotten to the Finals.
Some achievement that is almost abnormal in the Bundesliga. . . .

Like Jigga said. . . . .That's a one hot final every ten year average!!

What A Terrible Miss From Seedorf .

Abeg Milan Make una no spoil show oooo
