villareal look horrible this year. Now with Rossi out for 6 months they will be even more. it is a pitty too since they finally played well last year.

Nice pics. Are you a fellow Toure fan too?

I'm sure someone has. I don't have time to look it up now, but I'll do some research on it later tonight :) This is the type of stuff I like looking up too.

In Villareal's defense, they were missing something like 8 players who typically start or come off the bench, but they couldn't get anything going offensively.

The last goal was embarrasing too, on Villareal's part. Nasri/Balotelli/Toure shredded the whole defense.

With Bayern and Man City winning yesterday, updated standings:

Bayern 10 PTS
Man. City 7 PTS
Napoli 5 PTS
Villareal 0 PTS

Man. City still has to play @ Napoli and face Bayern at home.

Is the 2nd picture of Micah Richards? Do you know?

All I can see is the #2 on the shorts, so I guess it could be Toure or Richards.

My friend who moved to London went to Manchester United vs. Arsenal (I think) with his boss. Maybe one of the teams was Chelsea (Arsenal vs. Chelsea??). He said it was a big rivalry.

His boss also said "only the poor people root for Manchester United", because they are now seen like the Yankees. My friend said it wasn't like that 10 years ago though.

He said the crowd was there more for the atmosphere and the drinking, than they were game.

I don't know but I would guess Richards.
