yeah but can they maintain this dream start? Being away from CL is helping them too.

That's why I said it will be difficult to catch them ;)
That is an amazing start from Roma.
Amazing that in Spain they have shuffled Copa del Rey matches to a weekend soon and now Barcelona are playing tonight and their 3rd game in 6 days.
quite silly that they played last sat, then again on tuesday and then on a friday!
Alexis again :o
Newcastle - TSO : 2 - 0 :D
Arsenal - still top - 5 points clear :D :D
Oi! There is no need for that kind of talk (even if it is true and they deserved a 2 nil win) :DQuote:

In England, the uncatchable margin is 12 points. No team has gone 12 points behind and won the title, 3 is nothing.
Probably Fiorentina should kiss their hopes goodbye and at this stage, Lazio and below should absolutely do so.
3 down now after Juve won at Parma and Roma only managed 1 point vs Torino :D
Nice to see the gunners actually firing for a change! Been a tough few years lately for then.Quote:

Its going to be a long hard season.
Oh tish... 's been 23 years since Liverpool last won the title. Margaret Thatcher was still Prime Minister, BSkyB wasn't even invented and Madonna was Voguing it up.Quote:

:laugh: True, it has been a while since they won the league, amazing how teams can go from totally dominant for decades to nowhere really for decades :shock:Quote:

Though to be fair, the five year ban from European football imposed by Thatcher's Government in English clubs and the ten year ban imposed specifically on Liverpool (though in the end not fully enforced), probably helped to put the course of English football well and truly into the dustbin for a while.Quote:

That single goal, after the terrible events of April that year, brought football back into the civilised world and at the same time did more to convince what would be companies like BSkyB that there was a lot more money waiting to be untapped. That goal I think probably helped more than any other, convince the rights sorts of people to set up the Premier League and possibly lay the template for the Champions League in it current form.
Forza Juve!
2 - 2 :eek:
2-2 only :( but Juve played a great match, and could score 3 goals in the first half, if wasn't for Casillas amazing saves :eek: We now need two wins to go through...we will do that ! ;)

Angela Merkel, DJ Otze, Claudia Schiffer, Otto Von Bismark, Michael Schumacher - Can you hear me Michael? Your boys took vun helluva beating!
For all the talk of the goal drought of Messi...scored 2 again. Milan is his bunny rabbit now.
Juventus vs Napoli tonight :eek:
It will be an exciting fight, especially after Roma played 1-1 at home. So who wins will only be 1 point behind :DQuote:

pino is on booze :p:
Yeeeees ! That was a great performance !!! :bounce:
So Llorente is suddenly on form and playing? (= scoring!)
Told you, the Roma thing was too good to be true...Sassualo huh?
Messi injured (again! same muscle problems in thigh)..I hope he stays away for a month or two and comes back stronger...forget the 'pichichi' as Ronaldo has got htat stitched up anyways. Neymar will step up (like last night 4-0 vs Betis)
Never heard of Sassualo until yesterday :dozey:
Name is Sassuolo...that's why ;)
still who? Lecce, Livorno, Chievo, Atalanta, Catania are the minnows I know :p:
+ Crotone, thanks to Juve :p:
:bigcry: ;(
Congrats Odykas.......
Bad Luck.Quote:

It's not over yet g/d.
Greece have been consistently bad this year, with the exception of Friday's match.
So anything can happen.
The world cup is taking shape.
bah, doesn't matterQuote:

It’s OK with me since I consider Greece my second homecountry :p
Problem is that none of these two deserve to go to a World Cup.
Don’t know who’s playing more boring than the other. Probably us since we are the only team in the world to whom Greece managed to score more than 1 goal.....:laugh:
Unfortunately, this is true :laugh:Quote:

Now Valdes and Xavi are injured - atleast for this week-end and possibly more.
