Barcelona is like a whole team of Ashley Youngs. You touch them, they fall like you punched them in the goddamn face... Especially Neymar.

Is that news to you? Sergio Busquets says hi:

 

[Night Prowler]

It's not news, but it's always frustrating.

2-1, I want to believe.

Piqué has now made more own goals than proper goals in the Champions League: 2 own goals and 1 goal.

 

[Black Wizard]

Gary Caldwell must have the record for own goals in European football.

To make matters worse, referee is Serbian. Thanks Obama.

"Olivier Giroud battles hard to get his head on Mesut Ozil's looping cross and Aaron Ramsey is more alert than Neven Subotic, diving in to nod in from close range."

Well, it bloody would be those three wouldn't it?

Ajax's goal against Celtic. Just ... wow. Amazing.

 

[The Flash]

Great, great win for Arsenal.

Great, great win for Arsenal.

... although maybe slightly lucky?

... although maybe slightly lucky?

I don't care, we were on the unlucky side the last time.

 

[TheSeventhSonRoberto]

Bring on Man u!!!!!! Arsenal is ready

 

[Black Wizard]

Ouch.

 

[Dr. Eddies Wingman]

Second successive home match where a goalkeeper contributes greatly to a Chelsea goal

By the way, here's that Ajax goal. What a beauty!

 

[Black Wizard]

So how many of those players will be playing for Ajax next season, or in February?

Thanks Wingman. I missed it when I was at the toilet.

Hard to say Wizard! It a fine group of players but they can make mistakes, especially in the defense. After 12 matches, Ajax is 6th in the league, but as you can see the clubs are close to each other:

1. AZ 12 7 1 4 22 21-17
2. Vitesse 12 6 3 3 21 22-17
3. FC Twente 12 5 5 2 20 27-11
4. Feyenoord 12 6 2 4 20 25-19
5. PSV 12 5 4 3 19 23-12
6. Ajax 12 5 4 3 19 23-15
7. PEC Zwolle 12 5 4 3 19 21-13
8. FC Groningen 12 5 4 3 19 25-25

 

[Black Wizard]

Three points is nothing after twelve games.

 

[Dr. Eddies Wingman]

Thanks Wingman. I missed it when I was at the toilet.

That's what half time is for!

 

[Black Wizard]

Ajax are going to get fined because their fans had a banner saying "Fenian Bastards" on Wednesday evening.

I know a Rangers who is as nice a person you'll ever meet. It's the opposite of what you think of a Ranger fan. I wonder people like that who support teams known for their racist/fascist supporters how they feel about it? I am sure they are fans because it's their local team and that's understandable.
