Wednesday Open Thread

Huh. There are two matches today as well. While there is little to no hope that either of these will capture the imagination the way yesterday's Liverarse second half did, we will still play attention.

Unless the games suck, then we can get on with everything else.

Anyway, lineups and your comments are found after this link.

Spartak London-Everton (FSC)
FA Cup final preview, more or less. At least this one won't go into extra time
Spartak: Cech; Ivanovic, Alex, EBJT, Cole; Ballack, Essien, Lampard; Drogba, Anelka, Malouda. Subs: Hilario, Di Santo, John Obi Mikel Obi John, Kalou, Belletti, Manicienne, Mellis.
Everton: Howard; Jacobsen, Lescott, Yobo, Baines; Osman, Castillo, Neville, Pienaar; Jo, Cahill. Subs: Nash, Hibbert, Jagielka, Saha, Vaughan, Rodwell, Gosling.

Manchester United-Portsmouth (Setanta)

Bullshit card. If anything it was a foul by Drogba. At least karma is intervening.

Precious Roy said...

Gonna be tough for Everton if the ref won't let them defend without blowing a whistle.

Precious Roy said...

Hmmm... seems a slight drop in interest from yesterday.

Jacob said...

So, what's happened?

Jacob said...

Oh look. The preview for the snoozer that will be the FA Cup final is 0-0. SHOCKER!

*yawn*

Precious Roy said...

Well, Pompey was no help to anyone.

Precious Roy said...

Cech almost did exactly what Fabianski did over the weekend. Came close to gifting Jo a similar winner.
