Question on the semi finals...

[Tosh]

which club had the most players represented (played/squad) in the semis?

 

It has to be an Italian club or, I suspect, Chelsea

Juve?

 

Buffon, Cannavaro, Zambrotta, Del Piero, Camoranesi, Thuram, Vieira.

[Serko]

does Juve count? it's not like any of them are going to be playing for Juve in seri C next season. (apart from Del Piero)

[Stevie H]

Buffon, Cannavaro, Zambrotta, Del Piero, Camoranesi, Thuram, Vieira.

Juve would've had another if Trezeguet came off the bench too.

 

Ah yes, Everton's Valentey. Or Valent, as he erroneously pronounces it himself.

Thought it was (mildly) interesting that the French back four had each won their respective league titles last season (all in different teams/countries). Abidal, Gallas, Cannavaro & Sagnol.

 

 

As I said, mildly interesting.

[RP]

Aye, it's all relative.

Thuram, shirley?

 

Unless Cannavaro really is THE best defender on the planet, two clean sheets in two days!

Has he fallen out with Domenech or something? I am amazed he doesn't get even a sub appearance, yet the likes of Saha and Guvou come on all the time.

They bring Saha on to close out the game because he'll work hard for ten minutes. Trezeguet deems himself above that. He'll get his chance in the final though after Saha was incredibly stupid.

[Tosh]

shame the manc will miss out

 

Altough oddly, I think it'd be kind of cool if they gave another absent striker of theirs a medal should they win...
