I assume that RSC will be gone next season, so in my view Benni Mac is the best striker in the world that we can legitimately hope to have at our club next season. Fat or not. We don't have the money to purchase a better striker and it's hard enough to attract top-notch talent even if we did have the cash.

It was hilarious to see apparently grown men (Ballack and Drogba stood out inparticular) acting like 5-year-olds. I was cracking up at the end of the game. I really hate to say this but I think Manchester United is going to route Barca in the final, 4-0.

It all seems pretty cyclical. Maybe back at the beginning of the proper noughties ( ) Spanish teams were doing really well in the CL, and then a couple of years saw the Italian teams dominating. And the last four or so have been English teams. Yes I glossed that all over, but as a vague approximation that's my impression. It's probably all got to do with money, but it won't be long before another country has all the best teams. This is a quickly thought-out theory by the way. Once a league gets all the top stars, inevitably there will be good players who won't be able to play at the top-top clubs and will look abroad to play in another country. I mean, a top class Italian or Spanish fellow isn't going to come to England to play for Aston Villa or Everton, yes? Maybe he would for the Big 4 but what if he's not good enough for that? Eventually another league will dominate. A few more years probs. IMO, IMHO, JMO, etc.

I think I fancy Chelsea to win the tournament now
