very sad to lose cos we were the better team.
linesman had a shameful game..very shameful..
i din like Rafa's tactics as well..Cisse,Crouch and Riise should have started the game.
he made the changes too late too...ah well...congrats Sao Paulo
Regerio had a good game....his save from Gerrard's freekick was top class.

SUDDENLY THE CARLING CUP IS IMPORTANT AGAIN
Story by Ed
18 December 2005
Fergie says he’s bringing in Ferdinand and Neville
“I'll be making changes and the accent will again be on the younger players. Of course this is now a competition we can afford to be a little more ambitious in.

"So Rio Ferdinand will probably be there as will, possibly, Gary Neville, because he still needs games under his belt, but I'll be playing as many of the younger players that I can.

"It means Rossi, Piquet, Bardsley, Richardson, Brown and maybe O'Shea."

Liverpool beat the shit out of sao paolo, it should have been 9 -1 at least but at least it all bodes well for the world cup with Liverpool, man u and chelsea having the monopoly on England players, baring northern ireland being let in through the back door we can beat any team in the universe.

yeah, Liverpool outplayed Sao Paulo through most of the match, specially on the second half but you know this game is all about who scores the most goals and not who creates the more chances. I felt sad for Gerrard though, he looked very pissed.

ladygooddiva

chelsea won 2:0 :(:(:(:(:(

you know why .....

Middlesbrough 3 - 3 Tottenham

Bremen vs HSV 1:1 so i can´t say who is the nr one in the north

bua bua bua...

the thing is, you can get too cocky and start talking trash like cisse did and
you cant come before a game like that and say that "we are almost invincible" like gerrad said.
liverpool act the same way before in 1981 against CR Flamengo and the score was 3-0.
so next time guys, be more humble, i promise it wont hurt...

see you on the World Cup next year!!!

He didn't say "we are almost invincible", he said "we are invincible". Stupid thing to say before a game.

It was great match. And both time played very well.
But São Paulo has Rogerio as goalkeeper. And now we are the best of the world for the third time!

Stevie was just doing a captain's role and trying to fire up the players.

and yes..Rogerio and the linesmen were the difference makers.

Ferguson Reverts To Carling Cup Kids

Sir Alex Ferguson will give the young players in his squad the chance to shine in the Carling Cup quarter final tie with Birmingham at St Andrews' on Tuesday.

The Reds boss will rest a number of his senior players as he counters against the physically draining month of December that, when completed, will have seen his side play ten games - a match every three days.

"We'll be bringing in one or two of the younger players into the squad," Sir Alex confirmed. “Rossi, Pique, Bardsley, Richardson will play, as will Fletcher, Ronaldo and O’Shea.

"Louis Saha will be the older member of the team, and perhaps one of the centre-backs, Brown or Ferdinand.”

A late decision will be made on whether to play Gary Neville in the game. Neville missed three months with a torn groin muscle and the extra games can only increase his match sharpness. If not, Bardsley will resume at right-back.

Sir Alex does not agree that the Carling Cup now carries greater significance after United’s exit from Europe earlier this month.

"I've never given that a thought," he said. "The important thing at our club is to try and do well in all the tournaments.

"The Carling Cup has always been viewed slightly differently. Now, we come into the tournament later (third round), which gives the teams in Europe more incentive to be more ambitious about it.

"You have more of an opportunity because you don't have the two-legged ties near the start of the season anymore.

"It will be a young team, but they are all fresh and fit and they can handle it," the manager added. "The team that plays on Tuesday will be out to win it."


as you know i hope for rio as center-back;)

this week will be so cool tommorow and wendsday my faves are playing!!!!:D

Sorry, I can't agree with you. There are other ways to fire up the players without needing to underestimate the other time.

I saw all the goals that were cancel many many times on TV. And the linesmen were right in all of them.

As I said both times played pretty well, it's not fair to say Sao Paulo won just because of the linesmen. The first part of the game Sao Paulo played much better and Liverpool almost didn't get close to the goal. And anyway luck it also necessary to be the best time in the world.

never did Liverpool underestimate anyone.
Stevie said yeh we feel unbeatable..of course we were undefeated for like 12 games...whoever we were gonna face he would have said the same.

the third goal looked very legit to me.

yeh Sao Paolo played well for aboot 30 min..credit to them and especially Rogerio.
din enjoy the time wasting on purpose and Lugano's tackle on Stevie.
im proud of the way Liverpool played..as many have said..you dont often see a Brazilian side defend so much.

Poca_ BR

I´m very proud of my team!
They knew exactly how to play... they knew that they didn´t need to play their best football to beat Liverpool... and so it was! Very smart...

But it was a good game, at least everybody could scream GOL!!!

SALVE O TRICOLOR PAULISTA, AMADO CLUBE BRASILEIRO
TU ÉS FORTE TU ÉS GRANDE,
ENTRE OS GRANDES ÉS O PRIMEIRO

United Will Compete For The Title - O'Leary

Having watched the Reds cruise to victory against his Aston Villa side, David O'Leary - who later admitted being powerless to stop United - believes Sir Alex Ferguson's side have the means to challenge Chelsea for the title this season.

Goals at Villa Park from Ruud van Nistelrooy and Wayne Rooney handed United the win and moved them temporarily to within six points of the league leaders.

Jose Mourinho's men hauled themselves back to a nine-point lead on Sunday with a 2-0 win against Arsenal at Highbury.

But O'Leary says Sir Alex's side are still in with a shout. "United are still a class act," he said. "You can't disregard them.

"Manchester United always used to get better and stronger in the second half of the season and I think last year shocked them because Chelsea started well and didn't slip away.

"You can't start slow now. But if you look back on a few of their championship wins, United have got more points now than they had then at this time of the season."

Season Pts (17 games) Finish
2005/06 37 ?
2004/05 34 3
2003/04 40 3
2002/03 32 1
2001/02 27 2
2000/01 40 1
1999/00 39 1
1998/99 31 1
O'Leary has a point. Based on the last eight seasons, United have their fourth highest points haul after 17 games; the Reds are five points better off at this stage than when they last won the title in 2002/03, and six superior to the 1998/99 Treble-winning season.
"You can't deal with Abramovich and his millions but I think United will be still saying 'we want to win the league and if we can't, we want to finish second and win some cups.'"

And in Rooney, O'Leary thinks the Reds have an influential and talismanic figure.

"I think Rooney is getting better and better," he said of the 20-year-old striker. "I have never known a lad at such a young age be like him. If he plays well, Manchester United play really well.

"It was a similar scenario over the years with Arsenal when Vieira or Henry were not in the side."

Among other obvious footballing attributes, O'Leary says it is the Liverpudlian's approach to the game that is refreshing.

"There's a number of players who love playing and would do it for nothing," the Villa manager said. "They will run all day. They'll train in the morning, they'll train in the afternoon. Wayne is the same.

"If you took him off with five minutes to go he would have his dummy out because he'd want to play that last five minutes. And the amazing thing is that we are still talking about a young kid with years ahead of him.

"It's an absolute pleasure to watch him... when you're not involved in any game he is playing in!"
