With the transfer season window closing in like doors of a subway car, players and coaches are rushing to get on the right side of the tracks. One club, PSV Eindhoven has become so desperate they have sought out the efforts of an extremely talented and good looking but somewhat renegade player, namely Me. I [...]

Posted in Champions League, Liverpool, Lost on 23 May 2007 | 1 Comment »
I am surprisingly not as gutted as I would have expected to be after having just finished watching Liverpool lose in the European Cup final. The fact that Milan’s first goal was a handball, or that the referee–under whose watchful eye Milan have not lost a Champions League game, and Liverpool have never scored a [...]
Greek Police Through the Roof

Flashback to the Champions League Final of 2005. Liverpool were taking on AC Milan, I was living out of my car, Jose Mourinho was whinging about “the better team not winning”, and Djimi Traore was featuring prominently in the Liverpool defense. Thankfully, two of those things have since then changed. I now live in a [...]
Mourinho Deja Vu

I don’t know if my blood pressure has reached a level that’s safe enough to do a rational analysis of tonight’s match yet–every big Liverpool match is a heart attack waiting to happen–but I wanted to make a quick mention of Jose’s post-match comments. As he did at this juncture two years ago, Mourinho said [...]

The first leg went about as poorly as possible for me; a Manc win coupled with a Liverpool loss was the last thing I wanted to happen. Luckily nothing is officially decided until this time next week, and both ties hang in the balance. Wimpering Puppy?: Tuesday’s 3-2 Manchester United victory over AC Milan was [...]

AC Milan excepted, none of the semifinalists come into this week’s games in a rich vein of form. Milan is tricky because much of their recent success is due to the resurgance of Ronaldo (the original), who is cup-tied. This being the case, both of these ties could go either way. Manchester United v. AC [...]

I had thought that my esteemed colleague MarkalmGlazer was going to do a live blog type thing like yesterday’s Liverpool-PSV post but he’s either too despondant after Roma’s victory or he was caught in a baton charge by Roman police. Either way, here’s what happened yesterday. Et tu, Scholesi: Roma defeated Manchester United 2-1, with [...]
Tuesday Champions League Bukkake: Liverpool v. PSV
Posted in Champions League, Liverpool on 3 Apr 2007 | 5 Comments »
Full disclosure: I am a Liverpool supporter and am currently wearing my Liverpool shirt under my clothes. All comments I make will be coming from this biased position. That being said, let me welcome everyone to the first edition of Champions League Bukkake. As of right now it is only a one-man show, but hopefully [...]
