The Champions League draw has thrown the old Premier League sparring partners together. Here’s a look at Jose and Fergie’s harshest and kindest words for each other.
“In the second half it was whistle and whistle, fault and fault, cheat and cheat. The referee controlled the game in one way during the first half but in the second they had dozens of free-kicks. I know the referee did not walk to the dressing rooms alone at half-time” The Special One unveils Fergie’s half-time escort services. Read more »
This is the alleged stamp on Aalborg’s Kasper Risgard which could land Wayne Rooney in trouble with Uefa. The video also features a little compilation of Wazza’s other misdemeanours throughout the match, plus his neatly taken goal.
After Artur Boruc’s nightmare against Hibs at the weekend, Celtic proved that what goes around come around. The Glasgow club benefited from some very generous goalkeeping by Villarreal’s Viera, who kindly gave an underhit cross the near-post flick-on it needed to reach Shaun Maloney.

Video spotted on 101GreatGoals
When does an obvious pun stop being obvious and start indicating a sick mind? Here!
Talk about self-indulgent! Goal.com originally ran with this ever-so-slightly more perverted than it needed to be headline following Juventus’ draw with FC BATE. Eventually the post-match Viagra obviously wore off/a senior member of staff spotted it, and it has now been replaced with the slightly more sober Juve Top Group H Despite Bate Draw.
Chelsea are through to the next round of the Champions League thanks to this strike from Didier Drogba. The Blues had a nervous night at Stamford Bridge against Romanian outfit CFR Cluj, but substitute Drogba got himself on the end of a neat chip from Joe Cole and finished in style to wrap the game up.
When you have fought back from 0-3 down to 2-3 against one of the biggest teams in Europe, what you don’t need is one of your defenders to restore the opposition’s two-goal cushion let alone do it with as much panache as Sporting Lisbon’s Marco Caneira did against Barcelona. You suspect his team-mates know he would have blazed it over the bar at the other end!
There are two people who think any foul on C-Ron is a red card offence
One is Cristiano Ronaldo. The other is Italian referee Roberto Rosetti who dismissed Villarreal’s Joan ‘Crawford’ Capdevila for this pretty routine foul on the Portuguese flyer. It’s a foul, yeah. Give him a yellow card too by all means. But a red card? I don’t think so.
Pink is the new black *Adopts David Attenborough voiceover*Above me see all four limbs of the pink-footed Franck Ribery - football’s finest quadruped. Once a native of France, he now roams around his European hunting ground terrifying his opponents with fearsome looks and those flamboyant pink boots.
Perhaps Nike wanted Ribery to front their Mercurial Rosa because he is a skillful player while also possessing the least pretty boy face in the game. Whatever their reasons, it worked a treat. He bossed the midfield and got two assists against Steaua Bucharest last night. Nicklas Bendtner did alright in his pink boots too… Read more »
Brazilian player stops short of joining the Mile High Club
Dull news report about football team travelling on plane. Probably telling you when Internacional are expecting to arrive at their destination, when they are next training and… woah! Hang on a minute! Was that player snuggling up to his team-mate for an in-flight nap? He was, you know.
Bless you, Taison. You have got to be pretty comfortable with yourself to sleep in public while cuddling your team-mate.
