I'd like to say wow, what a strike by tugay in the blackburn-tottenham game and lol @ manu again. another great free kick by nakamura. terrible call to give celtic the free kick. another terrible call to give ronaldo the free kick that lead to saha's penalty miss. celtic buried their chance and manu didn't do the same.
Any thoughts on the FIFA rankings? I know they revamped the criteria from before but is it any more correct now. Obvoiusly the US didn't deserve anywhere close to its #5 world ranking but are there really 30 better squads? Seems like the rankings are just as extreme but now skewed the opposite way.

Good game today. All Manure in the first half and then all Chelski in the second. Good attacking football from both. Saha kept his shot pretty skinny on the post, and Van Der Saar would've had Carvalho's header if Saha hadn't gotten in the way. Oh, and I have both goal-scorers on my fantasy team.
PS - Newcastle beats Pompey 1-0 at St James' to climb u...oh wait, we didn't climb up, but we do now have 13 points, tied for 16th and one point behind 15th! Keep hope alive!
Did anyone see Ronaldinhos goal against Villareal?
Nice, look HERE!
I was going to ask the same thing but minus a link to a video. I saw it on one of the mexican stations flipping through the channels last night.
