I didn't really.
Here is the plan.
Dr Baros (Or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Del Piero):
Can't really see Nedved getting intimidated. By anyone. At all. Our only hope is that he gets injured like he has a tendency to do before big matches. I say we slip a dirty dirty Roma player like Cassano a sly £1000 or so to stamp on his head or the like.
The only plus I can think of is that Del Piero isn't performing that well and Trezeguet is over-rated. Sadly, Ibrahimovic isn't.
They may play Kapo, who seems to be a waster in the Nunez vein. You can but hope. And Cisse knows him, according to Football Manager.
Also, this could be our plan. Brainwash Baros into thinking he's playing for the Czech Republic instead of Liverpool. This is so he will play well and not try to stamp on Thurams face or something like that and get sent off. This is backed up by shaving Morientes' head and pretending that he's Jan Koller and we signed him in the window on the sly. We need Cisse, obviously, because DangerMellor has caught rabies or something like that. So we lop off that really fast guy from Inter's leg (Obafemi Martins, or something like that) and splice it onto Cisse. He may be a little bit slower than Cisse (according to PES4), so Cisse will run around in circles. To use him as an effective weapon, we give Finnan a really long stick and he uses it to prod Cisse at people like Cammerersonsdiiansi. He's got silly hair anyway. Odds on God wants him to die.
At the match, Baros believes Nedved's performance is for the Republic and Koller is standing there, so he's inspired to Euro 2004 it up, Holland-style.. Then we send on Igor to rampage at will, perhaps breaking a rib here and there. Cannavaro for example. We also grow Dudek's hair, shave his face, grease him up a bit, and swop him for Buffon. Also without telling anyone.
Finally, we shoot Nunez, just to be sure he won't play.
Then we will win.
But they'll lose in Turin
:(
Star man for me though - Stevie Finnan. Excellent match, the way he attacked meant Zambrotta couldn't have anything near the impact I thought he might. Defended like Carragher and all. Well done Stevie.
> Perfectly good goal disallowed. Poor old Del Piero
Yeah, but if the whistle didn't go you don't know whether or not Carson would've got to it or not.
Good game - pretty much agree with what Stryke said, although I thought Baros was a bit rubbish. His positioning was alright, but he couldn't seem to do anything with the ball. Probably the right decision to bring him off. And Nunez wasn't bad - most of the team were getting tired, and he was a bit more lively.
Made me smile to hear the Kop sing "Meeelan, Meeeelan, Meeeelan", and Nedved give The Man a little hug.
Well, I wasn't too confident going into the match and I'm less confident going in to the Turin match. 1-0 win to Juventus...Not too hard to imagine. Maybe Emerson will still be screwed for that. Oh, and no Zebina. We can't play for a 0-0, no chance we can keep a clean sheet.
But, walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart. We'll have the mighty Xabi Alonso back for that match, probably. And that'll bring a lot of quality to the team.
And any team with Milan always has a goal threat ;)
