Either,or if it's a draw,we might get a few "Euro giant's in stalemate" headlines

Any truth in this Rooney fall out with van Fuckkuckle being the reason for his absence?

I posted yesterday questioning this "injury",they reckon it happened v Sunderland.I looked at the match stats and they made their last sub in the 86th minute,and even if it happened after that last substitution,I doubt it very much he could of carried on with knee ligament damage.
More to this than they are letting on,IMO.

I tend to be in agreement. No one plays on with that sort of injury surely.

Agreed. Always is.

It's a strange one this injury of rooneys if that's what it is,wonder if he's been visiting some places of ill repute and done his knee ligaments..

Usually they don't comment on tournaments they don't have.

Headline event on the sky sports app. You struggled to find a mention of Chelsea last night on there. Pandering to the approximately 999 billion rags worldwide.

Agreed. Always is.

Rumours are seeping out that the chubby codger botherer is being dangled to a Chinese "super" club....

The big difference I believe is, Mourinho is the proven one for the PL where as Guardiola hasn't exactly faced any real adversity in any of his jobs. Mourinho knows how to build teams like he did with Porto, Inter and last year's Chelsea side. Yes I agree his Real madrid job wasn't much impressive. I hope I'm wrong about all this but my general instinct tells me Mourinho is the better trained for the PL. I do want Guardiola to succeed here.

True. Apart from being false.

Pep's inherited team finished third before he took over having not won anything for two seasons prior. He didn't face adversity in Spain (apart from Jose?!?)
