LOL at our score.
Didn't see the match as I'm currently in LA visiting relatives but apparently we got slaughtered and won 3-0 ahahahaha. 7-1 AHAHHAHA Yeah I fancy our chances now. AND LOL at Liverpool - not so much at any of you guys (Cactus Danny) but at my friend at uni - though he does hate biscan like you guys

Newcastle and Celtic have decent chances now,none of the so called giants of the competition have impressed and Roma and Barcelona(
) are out.Biscan is a complete idiot but Heskey was Liverpools best striker,which would hopefully stop a few jibes at him. |

The whole thing with Heskey though is he'll have a game where's he's great (see away to Chelsea earlier this season) and then not play good again for months. He has no kind of consistency whatsoever and doesn't produce enough.

I'll admit that i'm biased with Heskey,with him doing well at Leicester but he's not doing a whole lot different at Liverpool to what he did to earn an £11 million price tag.He just misses more chances because more are made for him,he's been shown up for not being worth that much but thats another example of Houllier wasting money.
He may not be better than Baros but with him in Liverpool look better as a side(like they would with anyone in except Biscan).I think if Cisse goes then him and Owen would work well though. |

I said Newcastle had no chance of winning this thing...I just don't know anymore though.
So are the semi-finals Newcastle -vs- Marseille and Villareal -vs- Valencia? I'm guessing Valencia won here, I dunno what their final score was. |

Yeah those are right,Valencia ended up winning 4-2 on aggregate.
I think Newcastle will win it now. |

Valencia-Newcastle final would be quality.Valencia haven't looked great in the competition for me so far,but they're top in Spain so maybe they could pull it out when needed.

WE CAN SO WIN THIS NOW.
We should beat Marseille...then 50/50 with Valencia. And can I just congratulate the Newcastle defence for doing so well (apart from that whole penalty incident ). Yes even Bramble.

HHHHHHHMmmmmmmm
Not bad but definitely not good. Squad looks mad thin - Michael Bridges coming on?!?! A Leeds reject. And Darren Ambrose doesn't cut it in the Premiership and looks even worse in Europe. Shola should have scored. Still hopefully nick it on away goals or something

Wasn't teh best of games.Ameobi shoulda scored but having someone back for centre midfield (even Bowyer after his performance there at Villa) would seem better than Viana.

Yeah,i missed bits of the game but Ambrose did fairly well,just his deliveries at times and gave the ball away near his own box once,but otherwise he did fine.
If he is criticised then Robert should be aswell.

The difference between Robert and Ambrose is that Robert can create something even if he can't defend for shit whereas Ambrose couldn't create a shit out of his own arse.

Yeah but that was one hell of a shot in the first half today, I didn't think he played badly at all.

I thought the Ref was appalling but overall we weren't good enough either. The injuries crippled us and thats not an excuse obviously but should be a sign to the board that money needs to be spent.Overall I thought the defence did OK (apart from the horrendous second goal) and the strikers did about as well as they could (particularly Ameobi) but the midfield was dire. Robert was at his wasteful and lazy best, Viana couldnt put a challenge in or a pass right. Speed did nothing really of note (the best of the lot :s) and anyone who tells me Ambrose did well in that game are either blind or watching a different game. |
