The saying would work even if we weren’t talking about a team from the eternal city itself, but that doesn’t stop it from being perfectly applicable (and grossly clichéd).
I stumbled upon the lineup from another 1-0 loss in England which played a large part in showing Roma the exit door from a European competition, […]

ManU v Roma 2nd Leg Liveblog

So That Sucked

I’m not angry about the game. The better team won. Maybe not the better team on this day - Roma surely deserved more (even Ferguson said ManU was lucky) - but ManU is the best team in Europe right now, and really the only team that could possibly convince me otherwise is a Barcelona squad […]

Fenerbahce
Schalke
Arsenal
Liverpool
Chelsea
ManYoo
Barca
