    Ref has been utter shit so far.

    They're fucking pathetic so far. Speaking of pathetic, Ramires needs to fuck off, bring Sturridge on.

    Yeah, I know. Was commenting on how the announcers were biased toward QPR.

    Oh I know, was agreeing with you. The stuff about the non-call on the Hazard pen was obnoxious.

    We will never score a lot goals with Bertrand and Ramires on the wings... would at least like to see Azpilicueta at RB in this team.

    I'd like to see what Moses could do on the right.

    Ramires has played like dog shit this season. Here comes Moses!

    The hole in the center of the pitch is a nightmare.

    How the fuck do we not use all of our subs. So pissed right now.

    Teams are just gonna let Ivonovic, Bertrand, and Ramires have the ball because they are no threat at all. Hard to watch this one, at least Mata will be rested for the Champions League fixture.

    I think Oscar for Lampard is the only move RDM could have made.

    There was about a 10 minute stretch where our whole attack was going through Ivanovic in the fucking right corner. That's beyond retarded. We just didn't have it today.

    Contrary to my earlier post, I actually thought Ramires was OK when he shifted back to the MF after Moses came on (who did quite well IMO). The Ramires at wing project needs to stop. No excuse to leave Frank out there when he was off all day. Should have seen Oscar.

    Cesar may have presented something more offensive at RB but I generally agree.

    We just have an awkward set of personnel for both the 4-2-3-1 and the 4-4-2. We dont have 2 defensive center mids that can effectively control the game for the 4-2-3-1 to work and a bunch of the attacking midfielders we've got are pretty poor defensively and can't cover on the wings so the 4-4-2 means plenty of Bertrand and Ramires.

    I did like what Moses brought to the game and hopefully he sees more first team action.

    Anyone know of a shortish youtube clip for 2011-2012 champions league highlights? Would like to send to my Bayern Munich friend to mark the start of the title defense.

    Juventus will let Ivonovic and Ramires have the ball all they want. Only chance to score will be set pieces or a cheap give away. They have the best defense in all of Europe.

    They didn't look very good in the first half of their last game. That gives me a little hope.

    Odd that Sturridge doesn't even make the bench here too. If Torres sucks again we're in trouble.

    I'm thinking he gets the start on Saturday? Moses comes on for Torres if needed?

    I think that's very likely as well. Still seems weird to handcuff yourself in this game by not even having him on the bench.

    Sturridge has a hamstring issue. I swear the audio is a split second faster than the visual feed on FSC.

    Draw is a good result, Juventus could make some noise in this competition. Draw both games with Juve, and handle business with the other 2 teams.
