Oh and I hope you have changed your mind about Zamora now...either that or you live in a dreamworld
Open net against an Awful Wigan side. Only Heskey seemed upto it out of their lot on Saturday.
Harewood - it was an open goal under no pressure.
Zamora has been in good form though...
There - you got the praise, happy now?

At the start of the season i thought Inter could do it, they have ben awsome this season and were unlucky to be edged out by Valencia.

Huntelaar maybe.
Hargreaves is no Keane though.
& I don't think Carrick will be another Scholes either.

If a club reaches the standards that Barca did last time out - there is no reason why not.

Inter Man-for-man are better. Gilardino would be the Nerrazurri's 5th choice striker FFS!
Milan have 2 things in their favour:
*Ancelloti.
*They are more streetwise.

The problem with this argument is that they were up against players who also earn 100k/w but who had a longer resting period.

Not true, the second time was when they were on a high after a great winning streak...
Nah, Inter have been far superior this season... Milan even at their best cannot touch us... Next season could be interesting if they buy good partners for Ronaldo and Nesta.

To be fair, me and TS have been at his throat for a while. All pace. He's like Defoe but with even less instinct.

Also even with these 2 recent examples it's still a rarer occurrence than you would think.
Portuguese League isn't that strong so if a team wins the CL it would be surprising for them not to take the league as well, so I don't take Porto as a very important example here.
Anyone denying that teams only competing on one front have an advantage is being silly, it's obvious.

What happened to the best Left Winger thing?
You can slam Defoe all you like for a lack of awareness and $h!t decision making, but don't try and put Agbonlahor on his level for natural talent.

Agbonlahor can't even dream of scoring goals like that.

Wow.
Very disappointed with the performance. First goal was always going to decide it.
Well done Milan, a worthy Champion of Europe, please win the final, for football!
Man Utd, poor way to depart, but the best team in England, surely without doubt.

Im not saying he is a great player, my point is that he is the 10th best English forward and this shows in some ways how badly England lack decent top quality strikers. Saying that the lad normally plays off the striker and on the wing so seen he has managed 8 goals this season without pens is pretty decent. In my opinion he is better than the likes of Heskey, Vassell and Ameobi who people were mentioning as 9th or 10th best.
