Friday Football Thread: BilbOW, that's gotta hurt!
Surprised Jordan hasn't been up early does for an in-before-anyone-else "it was just a great game all round, wasn't it" effort.
United utterly humiliated at Old Trafford again. Ref awards them a dodgy pen, but truth be told Bilbao should've had eight or nine. Some wonderful, wonderful football. David de Gea makes about five blinding saves. City-bound Javi Martinez, de Marcos, Susaeta, Muniain, Llorent, where to f*cking start, what a side! Bid Red's FIFTH home spunking of the season. Outpassed for ninety minutes.
Mancini rests a few as City potter round a bit and marginally lose in Lisbon. Should be no problem finishing Sporting off in the second leg, though going through might not be in our best interests now that United are out. Didn't really play well on the night, truuth be told, were only the better side once Balotelli and Nasri had come off the bench. Vince Kompany pulls a calf, could be a big blow, that.
Elsewhere, wins for Atletico Madrid, Olympiakos, Twente, AZ and Valencia. Hannover draw in Liege.
Rangers players agree huge paycuts.
Premier League managers banned from talking about Redknapp and England.
Eric Cantona has a little cry when asked if Mario Balotelli's better than him. Could've just laughed it off, really. Must have another shit film coming out.
Pep laughs off Chelsea speculation.
Newcastle (nearly) announce a profit.
Any other business?
