As it has been said, the Chelsea players didn't really seem concerned with the outcome of last night's match. L'pool also had the same kind of performance against Fulham on Tuesday. It seems Di Matteo and the players are confident they can secure CL qualification by winning the final against Bayern.
Anyway, the second goal by Cisse is my choice for goal of the season.
We might all be focusing on the Newcastle/Man City match only for Man Utd to drop points against Swansea.
I agree with you @Taz. Newcastle and City have the early kick off at 3.30pm on Sunday so Utd will have known the outcome before they face Swansea in the last game of the day at 6pm. I really hope Tiote recovers in time - he'll be the guy to keep Yaya in check and he can do it well.
I was absolutely surprised to hear Di Matteo saying that Papisse didn't even know where the ball would end the way he kickedit for the 2nd goal. I expect such a statement from someone who has never played football!
We used to call that shot "banana" shot, with the outside of the foot. You know it will curve outwards from the outside of your foot, but you cannot really estimate how far out it will curve. So it could have gone to the near end or far end of Cech's goal, but Papisse knew exactly what he was doing. My goal of the season so far, even if Suarez scored from almost half line.
The Magpies will be boosted by the fact that they are only a point behind Arsenal but City have had 2 extra days rest and will treat the game like a cup final,it could be a great game for the neutral. Even a draw would suit Utd fine, and would spur them to perform against Swansea. Last match against Sunderland is a tricky affair
The welcome to The Reebok for Fabrice was moving but not enough to see Bolton through, Spurs look to have regained their stride. Arsenal better be careful against Norwich.
ION, Jose becomes the first manager to win 4 titles in 4 different countries,great achievement. And what a game it was, end to end stuff!That 3 nil scoreline belied Bilbao's performance. Even after missing a penalty, scoring a goal and missing a sitter one on one with the goalie, CR7 still wanted the ball!He really wants that pichichi.
Ofcourse Messi outshone him with a hat trick that took him past Gerd Muller's record of 67 goals in a European season. Phenomenal.But I hope CR7 does well in the Euros and wins the next Bállon Dór
