everyone talking abt the ref should sshut the **** up, he turned down only one legitimate pen

(piques hand ball) even if the other three were pens, you guys should be blaming Guus and the players

for relying on ONE GOAL against a team like barca, after what happened against bolton et al tot they should ve

learnt their lesson, didier drogba is a complete waist, just plain overrated player who spends more time on his

*** than the spectators, why couldnt he finish tthe chances that came his way , looking for a cheap goal

we chelsea fans should admit it came down to four things, Guus defensive tactics  (playing too defensively even

against 10 men barca brought out a striker for belleti) when you know one goal is far from safety,

didier not taking his chances

stupid lazy ballack who couldnt block ini's shot and peter cech failing miserably at saving the only barca chance of the game

.

women should focus more on their personality, a woman who brings open mind and great personality to the

table (personality in terms of honesty, sense of humour, respectful, somewhat submissive) has a far greater chance

of kidnapping my hearth n am sure the same goes for majority of guys THAN A FAKE BABE WHO PLAYS HARD TO GET N

HAS A DISGUSTING PERSONALITY. men are gonna play the game along of course, (if you wanna catch a monkey behave

like one) but the question is WILL PLAYING HARD TO GET YIELD A LONG TERM BENEFIT therefore make men love you, stay

faithful , attend to your needs and ultimately stick around

GAME PLAYING ARE FOR IMMATURE HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS, a grown woman/lady

shouldnt indulge in this BS women call hard to get, you are old enough to go for

what you want in life, if you are attracted to a guy, why hide your feelings, women need

to stop playing the innocent role, THE COLD TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS, WHETHER YOU PLAY HARD TO GET OR NOT

WHAT WILL BE, WILL BE. IF THE GUY LOOSES INTEREST ALONG THE LINE OR JUST HAS THE AGENDA OF HAVING SEX WITH

YOU,HE IS STILL GONNA DUMP YOU ANYWAYS, so is the game worth playing afterall

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: The Epl Is Simply Not The Best League In The World by jalether(op): 2:37pm On May 04, 2009
British media have a huge influence on the view that the EPL is the best league, the way they publicise their

players is second to  none, i remember one time, they were comparing rooney with PELE, describing him as

the new PELE (wtf), and the whole talk abt Gerrard been the best player in the world this season, their lack

of technicality is always exposed when England faces the likes of Spain, Russia et al, then you wonder why

cant they retain possesion for even 40 seconds. throughout the whole match

others are just been partial, even though m a chelsea fan

this season alone he is simply not the same Cech pre injury

A post i found on the internet regarding the EPL being rediculously overhyped enjoy

Author: matt.renton 

Thursday, 5th March '09, 12:47pm

I was trying to resist posting anything about this subject but having read a blog by Guardian writer Scott Murray I just couldn't help myself.
No beating around the  bush- the English Premiership’s tag of being the best football league in the world is simply inaccurate- in fact this is
more inaccurate than the time French long jumper Salim Sdiri was hit by a stray javelin, thanks to a miss throw from Finnish athlete Tero Pitkamaki.
The EPL of course contains a number of quality players and undoubtedly some quality teams (look no further than Manchester United) but to say it is
the best league in the world is surely overstepping the mark. The EPL is neither entertaining nor blessed with enough quality nd it’s only through a
misplaced sense of loyalty and obligation I continue to watch it. A quick overview of the league says enough: At the top Manchester United (the small
ray of sunshine in what has become a largely overcast league) all but wrapped up the title two weeks ago thanks to Chelsea and Liverpool imploding.
Aston Villa were never going to maintain a series challenge with their squad and a special congratulations has to go out to Arsenal for spectacularly
failing to build on last season’s progress. United have hardly been irresistible this season, in fact going forward they look a shadow of the free scoring
team they assembled last season, yet with three months to go they look untouchable. You can certainly argue United are the best team in the world
(and technically they are after winning the World Club Championship) but they share the upper echelons of the EPL with nothing more than a selection
of also-rans. In quite the opposite situation, the race to avoid relegation currently involves at least ten teams. Each of them can as easily avoid
relegation as they can suffer it. Is this a sign of the league improving and as a result getting tighter? Or is it that half the teams in the EPL lack
the necessary quality to have a truly successful season and are destined to fight a relegation battle? Judging by the quality of the football on
show I would suggest the latter. As a spectator, the EPL more often than not fails to live up to expectation. The football is bitty, rarely free
flowing, full of mistimed and clumsy tackles, and teams more often than not employ negative tactics in order to avoid defeat. When the top
teams meet it is usually a huge anti-climax as they end up cancelling each other out. This is usually because their industrious players
outnumber their technically gifted ones and so games tend to grind to a halt. When top teams play lower teams the lower teams will shut up
shop and desperately defend in order to avoid defeat. When average/poor teams play one and other there isn't enough quality to allow the
game to flow and so they spend most of the time indulging in the horrific act of long ball football, which involves a serious amount of head
tennis. Compare this to the free flowing, 'let’s play football' mentality of a league like La Liga in Spain,if you told me to watch the derby
between Bolton and Blackburn, I would ask you to pay me to do so. It's perhaps the most boring match of the entire fixture list. The ball
goes from back to front in a few seconds, only for it to go back again in a few seconds. There's foul after foul, and a stop-start game which
almost reminds me of a cricket match. Compare this game to perhaps a game between Espanyol and Osasuna, where you will find chances
created at either end. There is no "stifling the opposition" or "pack five in midfield." It's quite simple, the two teams want to win. If the game
reaches a stage where the two teams know that they really cannot score, you might see a few boring minutes—as compared to a whole
boring 90 minutes in either Ewood Park or the Reebok Stadium.La Liga is a better league than the Premier League for the purists.
The technical ability of the players in La Liga is head and shoulders above those in the Premier League. The pace of the game might
not match the Premier League's, but the quality of the game is quite good. I've always been of the opinion that a league is not as good
as just the top four or five teams. The clashes between the mid-table teams should also attract neutral audiences. In that aspect, the Premier
League should come in second behind La Liga. Some will argue the quality of the EPL is highlighted by the fact so many overseas players fail to
adapt to its fast pace and physical requirements. I would argue these players struggle because they are not used to facing a
plethora of untalented hooligans, hell bent on trying to scythe them down just because they show some flair and technique. It’s time the vast
sums of money flowing through the EPL stop clouding the fact that it is not the best league in the world, simply the richest (which makes the
lack of quality all the more confusing).

a mad man, ofcourse with few exceptions such as asrenal n man utd.
