      3-1, I don't think Utd have been that good, but the score is about right, Leverkusen have been awful, can't believe they are in the same League as Bayern!

      Leverkusen have been woeful! But United have been lucky, 1st goal shouldn't have stood, 2nd was terrible goalkeeping, 3rd was a shocking mix up between 2 defenders!! Guess this will be a Moyes masterclass though no doubt  :roll:

      4-2, sounds like a great game, but alas only if your a cock, and RvP has just missed a open goal, never even got a bit of wood. :roll:

      Good job they've gone to an advert on the post match, gives them chance to pull Adrian Chiles' tongue from Rooney's ass!

      The guys calling the game couldn't stop pumping Rooney's tires, he is sharpest ever seen and if Chelsea got them they would of been unstoppable etc. He did have a good game but don't have to put it on so heavy as I thought Valenica on the right was really effective. As far as Bayer they didn't offer a whole lot besides Sam who looked a threat.

      still trying to work out what the journos at Mourinho's press conference found so funny, just sounded like an arrogant tw*t talking bollocks in front of a group of pychopants.

      Pretty wild game in Italy, Klopp got sent off after going berserk after defender who was coming back on the field after repairs wasn't given enough time which Napoli ended up scoring on and also the keeper was sent off for handing the ball outside the box

      Worth putting a cheeky bet on Napoli, you just never know with Rafa Benitez in European Football.

      Napoli won't win the champions league ;D. No chance.

      Very impressive win they got. Chelsea's loss was dissapointing but they'll still qualify.

      I said we wouldn't in 2005, look what happened. He got us to the final in 2007 aswell. Napoli have a great team, you never know.

      ^ :D

      Napoli winning makes the group very interesting. If Dortmund won it would be mighty difficult for Napoli to qualify. Now it's wide open.

      If Napoli go through from this group, watch out.

      I just don't think they have a "great team". A decent team sure, but far from greatness material.


      Haha, you caught me out there.

      Don't even know what was going through my mind as I wrote that.

      I don't think there is a great team in the CL at the moment.

      Barca will still have to adopt the new managers ideas. And Martino is untried in the CL.

      Similarly, Bayern will have to adopt to Guardiola's ideas and at this level confusion in the ranks is death over 1-2 games.

      Chelsea, Utd, Citeh no.

      Real Madrid, will have to adapt to Ancelotti and he generally gets found out over two legs.

      I was surprised how well Napoli nullified Dortmund's offence. They knew exactly when an where and how to operate to stop Dortmund.

      The teams with big stars simply cannot work as a unit like that. The egos of the stars won't allow it. It is entirely possible for this Napoli with Rafa at the helm and the Cormorra behind the scenes, to give it a shake. It is f course possible they wont make the next round.

      2-1 though, at home, after Dortmund played with 10 players for 45 minutes, is a normal result. If it would've been the knockout stages it wouldn't even be that great a result.

      Napoli have a good first 11, but I don't think their team has enough depth to consistently perform on all fronts for a whole season, but considering their position in the Serie A they'll probably try.

      The teams with big stars simply cannot work as a unit like that. The egos of the stars won't allow it.

      I don't see that. Teams like Bayern and Barcelona have won the CL in recent years because they were just that, a unit. Even Robben worked his ass off last season like never before. Most players are willing to put their egos aside when it comes to winning the CL.
