Dude, you're going to laugh tomorrow, but I just placed a 1 EUR bet
on Apoel to draw or beat Porto tonight, lulz
The stakes were too yummy not to.
I think it's not unlikely that Porto underestimates them, although we seem to have a good record at not doing so in the CL.

Oh well, I was right on track... too bad for me Hulk was inspired.
Oh my, he was really inspired!
APOEL was disappointingly weak, though. We could have trounced them. The result masks the fact that whenever Porto accelerated a bit, their defence was in trouble. They got lucky with the own goal (still, they all count) and had another penalty that the ref didn't mark. Falcao wasn't in his usual clinical self.
They need to regroup and step up in Cyprus if they want to have a shot at this. I fully expect them to show a bit more than they did yesterday.

Ladies and gentlemen,
I, hereby, officially declare the Executive Directorship in Real Madrid the home
of retarded administration.
Letting Sneijder go was a mistake. He's delivering at Inter and right now Madrid
needs a player like him badly.
And a new coach, of course.
...
Anyway, I am quite surprised that Bayern won't make it, and most likely the
Milan/Madrid group will give lots of surprises.
For the rest, business as usual, though the Russian teams, oh my goodness...
well, isn't it right that we love footie exactly for these reasons?
🙂

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Mourinho sold his soul to the devil before he joined Porto. It's unbelievable how many times he escaped at the last minute. Ok, it's true that his teams rarely panic at the end, but still...

clumps the attack with a pace that's proper of chess games... but he has
a pact with the devil, too much weight in the offices and the locker room...
Playing with the guy is like playing with 10, but he will play again and again
and again... without any sound reason whatsoever.
So, with that into account, there's only one more place left for an attacker, and
there you have Benzema, Higuaín, and Van Nistelrooy. If you ask me, letting
Huntelaar and then Negredo go was a mistake. Again.
As for Mourinho, his teams are always imbued with a rock solid character.
The guy is a genius... and, indeed, he has a pact with Satan, lulz

Raul is a media-wh.re. He gives inside information to newspapers so that when he does something good, they praise him like a God and when he doesn't they simply ignore it. Coaches know he can destroy them because he'll feed the media whatever it takes to get them to go (if he needs to).

My guess was that he was sleeping with lots of people from the board.

Group C and F look like they're going to go down to the last game before they're decided. (GO BARÇA!).
I can't believe how badly Bayern did though. Unfortunately I didn't get to watch any of their games. They also don't seem to be making the most of the Bundesliga... I am disappoint.
