    All away teams were favourites. I think PSG had the best odds at 10/11

    I would have predicted three of them to win beforehand personally.

    Ozil needs a kick up the arse. He was a passenger after his penalty miss.

    Kroos was quality. He ran it for them.

    Two English teams out in two days.

    Something got in the way. If it hadnt been there it wouldve hit the target, that's not a miss.

    In light of your comments, I look forward to the sporting world doing away with the shots on target stat. 'It wasnt a shot on target, they missed'.

    Considering the group winners play away first, aren't these actually the expected results?

    They are expected but nonetheless the odds you'd have got would still be pretty favourable. They'll all be heavy odds on for the home ties.

    I don't see the point in the Brit Awards. it's a load of ****e.

    I bet most of the big Yank acts just laugh at some of the ****e boy bands that perform on it.

    Does Alex Turner still have his dodgy quiff and talk daft? It's ironic that he penned "fake tales of San Francisco".

    So lets take that back to the rabbit and the chicken, the rabbit being the target, the chicken getting in the way.

    Did the shot hit the rabbit, or miss the rabbit?

    No, that's not 'taking it back'. Taking it back would be to keep it about the original topic - football.

    I look forward to never again seeing a shot on target stat.

    What's a shot? If a keeper kicks straight up field and it's heading to the goal, before someone traps it, or it hits a pigeon and play continues, was that a 'shot' on target?

    The shot didn't hit the rabbit
    A shot on target means that it hit the rabbit or would have hit the rabbit if something hadn't got in the way
    A miss would mean it wouldn't have hit the rabbit if nothing had got in the way

    To be fair I normally dont look at it but only this year because of Arctics and Bowie.

    And to be fair there were a few Yanks and rock bands performing and no boy bands.

    Yes he does have that quiff. Fake Tales might sound ironic now, but if Turner had stayed in the 'one-dimensional angry Yorkshireman everything else is ****' mode, the band would have died a long while ago.

    Think its time to heeds the lessons of 1917 and 1941. The only way to beat the Germans is bring the Yanks in!! The worlds great industrial Arsenal (pun intended) needs to get Lend Lease going again. I guess they are trying with Altidore, Dononvan, Dempsey, The Glazers, the guys at Liverpool and others. But perhaps like 17 and 41 it takes a while to build up a head of steam but in the end it works, and those pesky Germans (but today really nice guys and ever so good at footbal and at beating us) will be put in there footballing place.

    Change of sound, i'd agree, but he seems to get ridiculed by everyone for the look.

    Don't think it's done him an awful lot of favours.
