Here is what happened with Rijkaard and Ronnie:

Supposedly after the match a Chelsea official called Eto'o a monkey, and that started the confrontation with Rijkaard, Ronnie and co. So it was not between the coach and the player.

Wow we sure have seen a lot of class from London tonight.

Chelski - Barca was one heck of game but there is no way whatsoever Chelsea deserved to go through. I thought John Terry's goal was a bit too soft, and started to curse on Valdes. The replay, however, shows CLEARLY that Valdes was held by one of Chelsea players prior to Terry's header, which prevented Barca goalkeeper from making routine save. You can make an argument that Chelski played well blah blah blah but at the end of day they qualified next stage through blatant cheating and knowing Mourinho I wouldnt be surprised if this was planned before the match. I am starting to hate everything about Chelski - their coach, chairman who made living out of being a major thief, arrogant players, and worthless fans selling their souls for the glory.

As for Milan - Man U match, it was first class display by Milan in terms of defending. One would be hard to find right superlatives to describe Cafu, who can still run back and forth at his age. Cafu was constant threat in the attack while containing Giggs for the majority of the match. Stam was also in top form making his presence felt in the defence with winning all the headers, and clearances. But I think the quality that runs through in the Milan midfield just give them a edge over rest of the teams IMO. Kaka, Seedorf, Rino, Pirlo is arguably the best midfield combination ATM.
Nonetheless, without Sheva I think their attack is rather punchless and Crespo certainly isnt in an inspiring form despite scoring goals. His movement is too static and misses one too many chances for my liking.

I completely concur. Barca had the better run of play and seemed to control the match, while Chelsea struck a few times on the counter-attack. The Terry goal should have been called back because it was an obvious obstruction on Victor Valdes that was somehow unseen by Collina. I share your same distaste for Chelsea because everything about that club just lacks class, except for some of the football they play. I bet the worthless glory hunters are having a party tonight.

Mourinho knows his job better than Rijkaard,

Eto'o might have signed out,

Interesting fact:

All the teams that have kicked Manchester United out of the CL after their 1999 win have been the CL Champions:

2000 Madrid
2001 Bayern
2002 Madrid
2003 Milan
2004 Porto

Whoa, really? Gabriela Spanic is from Venezuela... Last time I saw her on TV was when I was like ten, though
Yeah, it was a long time ago. She was really popular here. I dunno how she looks like now :D, I just remember that she was very pretty :)

Btw, good luck on your study, Fabi ;)

I saw Crespos goal, just watched all the goal highlights a few min ago. It was his 3rd or 4th header of the the night. He was pushing for one, and hit that one PERFECT. Barely made it by Howard.

Man U only had like 3 or 4 chances, with Ruud missing 2 of them.
Milan dominated.

Mourinho is the coaching version of Totti..when he wins its ME ME ME and when he losses its REFS, PITCH, the MEDIA....MY SHOES, etc.
Please...he cannot accept defeat and that in itself in the sign of a weak coach..in times of distress he does not step up to the plate in front the team but seeks to cover his own ass.

REAL CLASS.

He just needs a good whipping in CL to put him back down to earth.
Oh FOR FVCK SAKE guys. Chelsea rip Milan a new hole and this is exactly what I expected to see posted upon my return.

Morinho is a great coach nick, he has proved that. And who the hell takes his comments seriously. He commented that his wife was hotter than fergusons. Did you get ratted out on that also? :howler:

Andy what a Chelsea offical did isnt important to what Chelsea did.

Dont belittle that with fvcking garbage please. I hope Chelsea win just to teach you losers a lesson. Whats with Italian fans and moaning about crap?

Get over it and talk about the game idiots.
