2. If they use video in post matches to cut down on fakes and obvious troll attempts, like marcelo's celebration when Crouch got a red, or Busquets Peekaboo last year, and hand these players a one match suspension, that would quickly cut down on the B.S.

I've always thought that players who roll around injured should be removed from the pitch. I like the 5 minute rule better.

Rooney out 2 games...Lets go United (not an Englishman but not a "bandwagoner" either)

Does everyone here get Fox Sports Channel? I get the HD version and what with ESPN showing some games i don't think ive missed a United game this season.

Alright last round of the Quarterfinals...very thrilling first let and probably a bit of a snooze fest for the second considering the scores...most of the winning teams will just try to kill the game off- the exception being United v. Chelsea which is going to be a nailbiter.

Here's the scores from the first leg.

Inter v Schalke (Schalke 5-2)
Real Madrid v. Tottenham (RM 4-0)
Barca v. Shaktar (Barca 5-1)
Chelsea v. Man Utd (United 1-0)

The winners are more or less already decided except for United v. Chelsea game. United better score a goal or two because keeping Chelsea off the score sheet for two consecutive games isn't going to happen.

[ABQ325i]

Yeah the United/Chelsea game is going to be tense. I think United can pull it off, they are at home after all. I'm hoping United go out strong and score early on to leave complete pressure on Chelsea who I hope will crumble.

[infinitekidM2C]

I really don't think Chelsea is going to keep United from scoring at home. Especially with a Fresh Rooney and Chica.

[ssabripo]

here is to a good game. Hoping ManU can get through, but also waiting for a good game from chelsea.

[fercho]

2-1 manchester won!!! and another goal from chicharito he is a lucky guy

[infinitekidM2C]

Chelsea played well but United were the better team.

[Little_Titto]

Good bye Ancelotti...

I call United vs Barca final rematch.

I don't know who to cheer for. They are both my favorite team.

If Barca gets past Real, I'm rooting for manU or Schalke to win it.

CSB..just kidding.

United will take Schalke...not sure about Madrid v. Barca. Everyone lauds Barca for their play but both teams are loaded with talent so it's anybody's game. (P.S. to ssabripo...one doesn't say "ManU"..it's an insult to United supports and just not done..)

I think we are going to know a lot about who is going to win the champions league match between Barca and Real this weekend from the Clasico. If Barca dominate them like they did earlier in the season with a 5-0 route then they have the mental advantage.

[///M Dream]

Really excited for the Barca Real game. Most people are betting on Barca but im sure its anyones match. And this weekends El Clasico will show a preview of what is to come. Both teams must play well this weekend for a strong mental advantage. Besides mentality from this weekends game im not sure much else comes from it.

Interesting results from the Madrid Barca games..Madrid clearly can handle Barca.

Next game up is Manchester United v. Schalke. I predict United 2 - Schalke 1.

with all the referee talk and complaints from Pep, Iniesta, Valdes, and co, it's obvious they are nervous as heck, and that loss in the Cup final really got to them mentally.

They are favorites and they better come to play without fear, or Madrid will end this Barca Cycle!

HALA MADRID!!!!

[ABQ325i]

I predict Real to win at home tomorrow and Barca to win their home leg. Not going to predict scores though.

Haha there are three outcomes... 1-0, 1-1, or 2-1

Also what is up with all the united supporters in here...I HATE them!! CHELSEA!!

Cause Chelsea is led by an idiot who all he wants is to win the Champions League and when he doesn't he fires the coach.

And Manchester United don't need to spend big to make a team. Chicharito!!!

Barcelona vs Manchester United Rematch of the 2009 Final

[ABQ325i]

Because Manchester United are by far the greatest team England has ever seen

Chelsea are just a second division club purchased by a guy with a boatload of money who spent millions to get them into the big time.

If it seems there's a lot of United supporters it might be because United supporters are actually proud of their team and speak up...they don't hide in the dark corners and whisper "chelsea!"

I also predict a Madrid Victory for today's game. 1-0

[ABQ325i]

United v Barcelona it is then!
