Champions League Group Stages Finally Getting Interesting

Soccer Tickets Online 05 November @ 03:43 PM EST

It took four rounds of play but the Champions League group stages is finally heating up.

If the group stages finished as they are now, then Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Liverpool would all be playing in the Europa League.

Jose Mourinho and Inter Milan were five minutes away from an 9th consecutive Champions League game without a win, when two late goals not only gave Inter the win, but also propelled them to first place in the group.

Sanford's Soccer Net 04 November @ 09:25 AM EST
Liverpool and Rangers are drinking in the last-chance saloon while Arsenal are hoping to toast their progress into the knockout phase of the UEFA Champions League.

Bring On The Knockout

The Dribzleroo 03 November @ 08:10 PM EST

Manchester United booked its passage to the knockout phase of the UEFA Champions League in dramatic and somewhat embarrassing fashion. If a side like CSKA Moscow can come to Old Trafford and score goals in the manner they did, I don't think the Special One at Inter Milan or Barcelona's Pep Guardiola will be having sleepless nights worrying about United's threat to their title hopes.

This week in Mourinho’s tongue

Dirty Tackle 02 November @ 03:19 PM EST

When we last left Jose Mourinho's tongue, it was being stuck out at the crowd after an injury time winner against Udinese. Here it makes another appearance, albeit just a cameo, after Inter's second goal against Livorno on Sunday, accompanied by some kind of Michael Jackson type hand motion.

Napoli stage another huge comeback

Premiership Talk Blog 31 October @ 02:37 PM EST

If you thought that Napoli's injury time brace, which handed the club a 2-2 draw at home to AC Milan, was its comeback of the week, think again. The underperforming Naples outfit has suddenly brought an end to an indifferent spell by stunning Serie A contenders Juventus 3-2 this evening, and that too away from home.

The Friday CQC Club Featuring Mourinho!

Futbolita 30 October @ 12:27 AM EST


Ei futbolitas, many of us may be familiar with the louco Brazilian CQC gang (even Felipe Andreoli officially knows how much nós adoramos!) In case you happen to be living under Fabio Capello's rock, it's a politically-incorrect current affairs programme that stands for 'Caiga Quien Caiga'.

Young duo linked

Bitter and Blue 26 October @ 07:56 AM EST
A pair of young prospects were linked over the weekend with imminent moves to the club. Firstly, Slovenian midfielder Rene Krhin - currently at Inter, who The People suggest is all but a done deal:

Krhin should join Hughes's revolution in the New Year, with City keen to do business now before he costs even more - and possibly appears in the World Cup finals for his country next summer.

Et tu, Jermaine?

The Offside - Liverpool 23 October @ 12:33 PM EST

Perhaps not surprisingly, Jermaine Pennant has added onto the dogpile, criticizing Rafa Benitez for "restricting his players." Pennant struggled to break into the starting eleven consistently during his time with Liverpool but showed glimpses of brilliance from the wing, and most notably scored an absolute stunner against Chelsea at Anfield in 2007.

Inter Bottom of Group F

Serie A Talk 21 October @ 07:01 AM EST

Inter Milan drew 2-2 at home to Dynamo Kiev in a game that saw them behind twice and could have ended in defeat. Inter Milan are now at the Bottom of group F and only have one remaining home game left to play.

Although it is true that Inter are at the bottom of the group they have 3 points from 3 games but it is not quite as bad as it sounds with the other 3 teams all being tied on 4 points.
