I have watched 10 minutes of this and turned it off.

Should Arsenal fall out of the Champions League I want tus to come around 8th to avoid this sham of a competition!

Couldn't get through five minutes (easy, Jayson!).

Turd of a competition.

This. He is an aerial dynamo.

Was at game last night, first time in the new Lansdowne Road and it is better than it looks on TV. The small North Stand is a bit daft looking, but apparently the plan is a long tem development of it. The game was a tame affair and it was easy to see that Porto are a bigger club with better players. Braga gave a lot but only had one clear cut chance , but what a chance it was.
Porto outnumbered Braga in the stands by at least four to one.There was a good athmosphere without any hint of trouble .The game was overshadowed by the visit of Queen Elizebeth in the last few days, but it was a well orgainised success.

i wouldn't say shit, but surely the quality of portuguese defences tend to make people think he's better than he actually is. a bit like afonso alves when he used to score 40 goals a season in holland.

i think hulk would be suited to our league, though. strongest striker i ever saw, the lad is an animal. kicks like a mule and works hard the whole game.

i don't think he is technical enough to become a top top striker but he is surely a decent player
