Is it that hard to notice a clear offside at the top level? Feeling pretty robbed, but at least we played well, which is important at this stage of the season!

So that was what it looked like. :)

I was listening to the game on my SiriusXM satelite radio. I'm convinced; you need to be slightly insane to listen to football on the radio.

My co-worker who once lived in India thinks something is wrong with that league. He says your teams score way to much. :D

Football on the radio has got to be the tensest thing ever! I was in row 2 at the other end, so really couldn't tell what was happening haha.

Why is Sahin going to Liverpool? They are not winning any trophies in the near future, and they won't get top 4 any time soon. Stupid move, he would have fitted in better at Arsenal and at least got to play in the CL.

I almost forgot, a few weeks ago when Chelsea was across the pond in Yankee Stadium I did manage to snap a few pictures. I threw a linear blur on this one. Makes the players really pop. They were playing Paris Saint Germain at the time.

Can you spot where they put the sod over the normally dirt baseball infield?

What are you guys all talking about?

Football hasn't started yet... they're just in the pre-season right now.

That.

You like "tough" guys that have make-up on their face and wear an armor because they're afraid to get hurt when they play some pale imitation of rugby?
Fine.

But just stay away from here.

Well technically it's only been qualifying rounds in the Europa and Champions League ... the real matches don't start until September. ;)

I actually have done it myself in this same thread 4-5 times.

It's always fun to get a 'rise' out of you diehard soccer fans.

A good 'rise' that, just a bunch of bored people wondering when/if you'll ever get a life... never mind!

On a more or less unrelated topic, I had good fun teaching some idiots on twitter about word origins, when they had a go at me for using the word soccer (can I not use what words I want?)... As I pointed out, it's an English word short for Association Football that is in the same vein as Ruggers, popularised by the captain of the England football team in the 1890s :-) just an extremely posh way of saying football! Very Oxford.

So what you're saying is that we Americans who call this sport Soccer are much more sophisticated than the rabble that calls it Football.

I'd call your shitty game "bodyball" as you are allowed to use any part. not to mention how violent and shit it gets. probably the only place where you can kill somebody and get away with it is your bodyball field!

Lol, when's the last time someone died playing American football?

If anything, the amount of padding they wear would make a rugby player laugh in their face.

Ancelotti doesn't. his record is brilliant, with both Milan and Chelsea! I think it's pretty hard to bring the best out a newly gathered group of stars. Real Madrid suffered the same experience twice when they gathered their first and second galactica IMO
