Meh. Milner should have seen red, but given the players missing from each side, a predictable result.

Spurs keep an 8-game unbeaten streak going.

 
Two big games in Serie A today...Napoli-Fiorentina @9:00, featuring the two most in form Italian teams...& Internazionalemerda-Juvemerda @ 2:45...regardless of results, Roma gain ground. I know you all wait/anticipate with bated breath; just doing my part via this Public Service Announcement...

....eagerly anticipating smart ### Floppo comment.....

 
I know this won't be popular.....I love Rooney, always have. He has warts - bad temper being the one I've disliked the most but he's always played hard, always sacrificed for the team and has made the most of his talent over the years. I know supporters from other teams hate him - I would too if I wasn't a United supporter. But there's no denying he's had an incredible career. And while he's far from done I think it's time that LvG consider dropping him. Considering how well United played yesterday it's hard to find too much fault but he still managed to stick out as the worst performer on the pitch for United. Makes me sad, I still love him but the club comes first.

Is Origi a good pick for draft kings at 4k with sturridge out and him as the striker?

I've always liked Rooney because of how impressive his workrate is. Felt like he was all over the field in many games I've watched over the years.

 
LA got smoked at home tonight with Portland scoring 5 in the second half.

With NY and Dallas both winning today, they remained tied going into the last game in the battle for the Supporters Shield.

 
I'm pulling my own Giovinco tomorrow. Land at 1:35. Weekly pickup game at 2. My buddy is grabbing my boots from my house before picking me up from the airport so we can go straight to the feild. Keep your eye on Sportscenter tomorrow night for the highlights. It's a Seba thing, and it's Lleget.

 
RB's Grella scored for NY 7 seconds into the game today. Fastest goal in MLS history. RB scored again a few minutes later in what ended up as 4-1 shellacking.

You shut your mouth, nobody can ever be worse on the pitch than Phil Jones. :X

 
Leeds (Leeds Leeds) is currently looking for a sixth head coach since Massimo Cellino took over the club in April 2014.

What a mess.

I love it.

I agree with you. He needs to be sat down. His lack of touch and passing accuracy has been horrible this year. Herrera in the 10 is so much better. It was unfortunate that Young was hurt and out this weekend since it led to Martial being on the wing and Rooney up top while Memphis got a seat and a talking to by Giggs.

Would love to see a lineup like this:

Martial

Young Herrera Mata

Schweini Schneidi

Rojo Blind Smalling Darmian

De Gea

Jones can be in for Blind if he survived this week without needing 3 weeks off. He was fine this week, even got another header while on the ground. Rooney has been great for a long time, but he can not be an automatic choice every game anymore. And Memphis appears to have some growing up to do still. I like him and he will be fine and will take over for Young soon enough but lets give him time. For now Young has looked better out there and should get a few games.

Trip to Moscow this week, Manchester Derby next weekend.

 
La Liga looks really tight right now with 3 teams level on points at the top and Atlético and Villarreal only 2 points back in 4th and 5th. The most interesting part is that the two teams that have fought their way back into the second tier (Sevilla and Valencia) and in 8th and 12th, with Bilbao at 14th.

Celta is having a great season. I'm not sure if Nolito is really a top level, but he's on a good run, that's undeniable. It will be seen if a) that form continues, and b) he sticks with Celta or jumps to a bigger club.

Just saw this on twitter

Leeds owner Massimo Cellino has been disqualified by the Football League after failing its owners' and directors' test on the day he sacked manager Uwe Rosler and replaced him with Steve Evans.

I wonder how many more coaches he still has time to fire?

For a minute I thought this was like a written exam. :bag: Looks like he was convicted of not paying tax on a Land Rover which gave the Football League an excuse to get rid of him.

Convicted for not paying tax on a Land Rover... in Italy. Seems like a stretch for the English FA to ban him, but I sure do love me a good train wreck.

Serie A execs must be laughing at considering that corruption.

 
Bunch of pictures and vines floating around this morning about some Bills players hanging out with Spurs players and a bunch of schoolchildren ahead of the Jaguars game in London this weekend. Marcell Dareus trying and struggling to juggle a ball with some little kids. Jan Vertonghen dancing around with a mini-ball and megging Bills backup CB Ron Brooks 1v1. Pretty funny stuff.

Ok Direct tv question. I was only able to find the Bayern game on FS2 and the Barca game on some random channel, does anyone know what channel the other games are on? I wanted to tape the Roma game and the Chelsea Chelsea Chelsea game.

I noticed that due to baseball they are not having a game on FS1 until like 8pm. Not sure they are moving it anywhere so you may need to record or watch later.

Same thing tomorrow I believe where FS1 will show baseball and not CL. FS2 has United game tomorrow live but other games will be on delay.

The Roma game will be replayed on FS2 at 10am tomorrow, and the Chelsea game at 2:30am on ESPN Deportes (en español!). And they're both available on the WatchESPN app.

Munich is on FS2, and thanks to everyone else for the update on the others!

 
I have three ####ing channels with "deportes" in their name, and yet no one is showing Santos v Saprissa tonight. What is even the point?

 
For the first time ever tonight, MLS could place 4 teams in the quarter finals of the CCL. For that to happen they need RSL to at least earn a draw tonight at home.

LA, DC, and Seattle are already through to the quarters.

 
Tons of good games on today but if you are dyslexic I recommend avoiding this match :)

AFC Champions League AL AHLI-AL HILAL (live) 11:30 am
