I have rated veratti for ages, went to watch Italy just before the world cup, and he was sensational. He's really good every time I watch him, tenacious and quick and with great vision. Really good player!
I wonder how well John Terry will recover. Looked to me like he could hardly move for the last few minutes last night.
Neville is starting to get on my nerves. He kept saying that "the fans at home won't like it but......". Sorry Gary, but it should be all about the fans. If the fans don't want to see cheating/diving etc then the powers that be should sort it out. The annoying thing is that it could be sorted in a couple of weeks if there was a will. For once Souness was spot on with his comments.
Now we are left with two representatives from the EPL!! Another season or two of our clubs underperforming will result in a drop from 4 to 3 for the Champions League!!!
Through boredom, and false hope - I decided to chuck a bet on tonight's game to liven them up. Just the remaining 94p in my account from when I last had a go, but lets see. Everton win Ajax win Villareal win Both teams to score in all games. Returns £133.95.
Saw that last night. He didn't just grab him briefly...he carried on holding him and tried to wrestle him out of the way.
If we look at the photo, Silva is right behind Cahill. So we can assume Cahill is the one marking him, and I'm not really sure where exactly is he going. Terry is probably pulling him back and saying to him 'where the hell do you think you're going, there's your player right behind you!'

Not that instinct tells him to cheat and grab people at corners!!! Shame UEFA don't use retrospective punishments; they could give hm a red for that.
