^ yeah the tussling with the defender started at around the circle, but the actual strike was at about 30-35 yards... Its tough to conceed a goal like that,especially so close to the break...

Liverpool's season is done. Premiership and UCL.

These guys cant even beat bummy a.ss Birmingham at Anfield.

Sucks for 'Pool fans that Benetiz got signed to a huge extension just a few months ago. He's under contract until 2014

Have Gilette and Hicks looking like this...

 

[keepie uppie]

i need to catch the match highlights later tonight...
even the likes of Ngog is getting into the whole diving thing...

 

[trunks206]

I caught the end of the match and I just cant believe that Liverpool is struggling sooooo much this year.

I didn't get to see the questionable PK...the announcer mentioned it...what happened?

And we all knew that ban would be "lifted" on Chelsea

Hopefully Arsenal can keep it up this level of play

they are too much fun to watch right now. (knocks on wood as to not jinx them)

Barcelona Reach Agreement With Manchester City Star - Robinho

have reportedly reached a tentative agreement with for the duration and terms of contract on a proposed move to Camp Nou from , according to El MundoDeportivo.

Robinho is said to be favouring a straight transfer during the winter window but the Catalan giants prefer a loan-to-buy deal until the end of the currentseason, picking up the players full wage tab for the remainder of the campaign.

It appears increasingly likely that a deal is to be made during the upcoming transfer window with a meeting reported to be taking place between officials fromboth clubs this week to thrash out the terms of the transfer.

It is understood that the proposed changes to the 'Beckham Law', increasing the tax rate for foreign players in Spain from 24 per cent to 43 per centis another driving force behind the desire to seek a swift resolution to the deal. A contract concluded before proposed changes to the law would see the 19 percent difference saved by the Catalan club.

Robinho is said to be a 'dispensable luxury' now at Eastlands with City manager Mark Hughes' eyes firmly set on landing French star Franck Riberyduring the winter window.

What do you expect? He has Gerrard mentoring him.

For those who didn't see it...N'Gog ran into the box, ran out of real estate at the touch line and didnt even have room to square the ball into themiddle...a Birmingham player lunged for the ball without touching N'Gog but N'Gog went flying. Ref awarded the PK and Gerrard scoring the tying goal.Birmingham got robbed.

I dont think Robinho is cup tied so he'd be the acquisition of the winter if Barca can land him. They could instantly insert him onto their left side andhave Henry come off the bench. I love my dude Henry but he's pretty much finished. You cant be that fast and not have it catch up to you in your 30s.

I'm not sure Ribery would welcome a move to Man City. I have a feeling Real made an agreement with Bayern to have Ribery join them next summer. I'mjust speculating though. I do know that Ribery said he doesnt want to go to England because of the cold weather. As if Germany and France dont get cold duringthe winter

Chelsea don't look like surrendering their lead at the top...3-0 in ½ an hour against toothless Wolves...

Come on son, that goal was nothing like Zidane's UCL final goal.

The ball bounced and slowed down for Fletcher.

Zidane scored his goal one-touch off of a cross.

^ With his weaker foot too...
