Greetings all ye lovers of the beautiful game. This game-week is set up to be a an interesting one. The champions league is kicking off on the 15th and 16th of September, and there are some mouth-watering fixtures to look forward to.

There is a French-Italian war in this first week.

Juventus v Bordeaux

Marseille v AC Milan

Lyon v Fiorentina

The results for the matches listed above are hard to anticipate. All these teams are strong. We will await results.

Some of the bigger teams will be having some easy pickings too...

Bayern Munich v Maccabi Haifa

Man Utd v Besiktas

Real Madrid v FC Zurich

Liverpool v Debrecen


One would be forgiven to expect the giants to squash the davids in the above matches.


Games that will be more contested affairs include:

Chelsea v FC Porto

Arsenal v Standard Liege


However, the biggest game for this gameweek will be, Inter Milan v Barcelona. This game is not just a clash of the giants. Those who have been following the transfers will be eagerly awaiting the Clash between Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Samuel Eto'o. Which one of these trophy-winning squads got the better end of the swap-deal?


There is gonna be more fire!!!

In your dreams homie. Inter are no match for Barca. Their only threat is Eto'o who perfected his craft with us by the way, so we know all about him.

Barca taking everything again this year. Ibrahimovic got 2 goals in 2 games already. Watch this space as the GOD grows in confidence.

Perfectly legitimate goal (according to the ref).

3 points away with about 6 first team players out. thank you very much.

We played Man U off the park and we lost. We played crap against Liege and we won. Go figure.

Inter vs. Barca was a borefest.

how is a handful of these nutz for ya. that was a goal, the ref said so.

[MrC The Rap God Almighty]

Inter was f***en Lucky. They defended their a**es off. No team is f***ing with Barca still. Again , possesion and chances were ours. Eto'o was nowhere to be seen.

But yeah overall, it was a borefest.

Jumped for joy when i saw Arsenal 2-0 down @ one time. Lucky f***s.

Zico complains about referee conspiracy

Olympiakos manager Zico suggested there was a french referee conspiracy in his team's 2-0 loss to Arsenal in the Champions League on Tuesday, complaining there should not have been a second goal.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is French and many of his players are from the country. The four match officials were all from France.

"They scored a oal which was at least three yards offside. You can't understand how a linesman can miss something like that."
