The Man Barca Missed The Most: R10
Champions League —
The Man Barca Missed The Most: R10 By: Rob | April 30th, 2008 Can The Dhino Hear Milan Calling? So after 180 minutes of football, it is Manchester United who will play in Moscow in two weeks. The teams - to my surprise, I told you there would be goals - were seperated by just one goal ( what a goal by the way ). Barca lacked idea’s going forward, Messi became predictable, Henry was too deep, Eto’o couldn’t get into the game. During so many Barca attacks I began to think - It’d be different with Ronaldinho. I’m not saying that if you chucked Ronaldinho in last night it would have suddenly changed the match, and Barca would have gone through. ...

Unless Fulhamerica completes a massive two-game performance, we might be in trouble. "Great stuff" to you both. There is a large community of soccer fans in this town, and they have been pining for more about The World's Game. Not to be outdone, Mr. Pete Grathoff ...
Scholes: I Caught It Quite Well

Paul Scholes is on two goals in three games at the moment, with his goal against Fulham last night going down as one of his better finishes. He caught the ball perfectly and fired the ball in Mark Schwarzer’s direction. The keeper could only block it though, unable to stop it crossing the line, given the pace it came to him.
Granted, it wasn’t up there with his goal against Bradford or Barcelona, but there’s no denying he hit it sweetly. In a typically modest fashion, Scholes has played down his finish, instead praising the ball that came in to him from Michael Carrick.

Before we start discussing this United legend and his future at the club, let’s get talk of that magnificent milestone out of the way, as only a typically limelight loathing Paul Scholes would want us to do. I’m sure you don’t need me to tell you but Wednesday’s 2-0 victory over Portsmouth signalled Scholes’ 600th appearance in a Manchester United shirt. For once in your career Paul, take a thoroughly deserved bow.
When you weigh it up, it really is a monumental achievement. With the days of the one club man now looking decidedly bleak, Scholes may well be the last of a dying breed as he joins Ryan Giggs, Bobby Charlton and Bill Foulkes to become only the ...
