    It was Gary Neville I think, I wasn't paying that much attention to the game, but It was Martin Tyler doing the play by play and Neville doing the commentating I think. And yeah they are very defensive when it comes to their clubs, but I guess we all are that way when it comes to our clubs playing against foreign clubs.

    I wonder what has happened to the english clubs, they used to be so dominating now only 2 made it to the knock out round, and looks like there will be none in the quarters.

    yeah i was wondering if that was neville....my god he was horrible, i was trying to ignore him, but the pro english agenda was super evident.

    SMH at him dismissing napoli as nothing special outside of their top 3 players, yet he admitted to it being the first time hes watched them.

    i thought it was hilarious how outraged they were when ashley cole didn't start, they were saying he was one of the top left backs in the world and then he played like garbage and left cavani... cavani unmarked on the second goal. that was just one of the many times the announcers annoyed me.


    napoli is still a fun team to watch. chelsea and arsenal really remind me a lot of chivas, america, cruz azul and pumas to a lesser extent... making a lot of bad team decisions.

    I thought Bayern would be a threat in this year's CL but...


    And Inter is stacked, but damn they have been playing some real shitty futbol. That manager needs to be ousted already.

    Ninguno de los 11 jugadores del Inter sobre el campo ha marcado gol alguno en el año 2012...according to Mr. Chip. Who the fack scores for Inter then?

    I dunno but Basel has a really solid defense that closes the gaps and comes out playing really well from the back... and the rest of the players hustle.

    they should have been up by 3 easy.....hit the woodwork twice on clear goals.

    The top teams in EPL have dipped in quality, the overall play in that league has not, big difference. I particularly enjoy watching Swansea and stay the hell away from Stoke, shit even watching Wigan punching above their weight is pretty gratifying. But wrong thread, yo!

    And yeah, Milan, Napoli and even Juve are pretty exciting to watch. For my tastes though, Ima stick with the race in Bundes.

    Inter couldn't even penetrate a Kardashian right now, if you get whadda I mean...

    Robbie Van Persie had a great opportunity to tie up the game & he tries to chip it over the goalie where he's a foot away from him & close to a few feet away from the goal line, what was he thinking?

    He should've have kept it simple like many times he did before & blasted that ball in to the back of the net like there's no tomorrow, who cares if you would've hit the goalie because it would have meant a chance to proceed to the next round, unfortunately that's the missed opportunity that came back to haunt Persie & Arsenal.
