Reports are surfacing both the English and international media that the FA has sacked McClaren. It has been said late last night that he refused to resign. He said judge me on results, and we saw the amazing results. England lost to Croatia 3-2 last night and lost the qualification to Euro 2008.
The former Middlesbrough couch might be replaced by Aston Villa manager Martin O’Neill. The media and the fans would love to see either Fabio Capello or Jose Mourinho manage England, but i really doubt it.
England is not in the Euro 2008, thanks to Croatia amazing win 3-1, It was really an entertaining match, I don’t say this usually about England International matches. Five goals was scored and during each and every one scored we were on the edge of our seats. Russia should keep on thanking Croatia for centuries to come, because they gave them the qualification on a silver plate.
The penalty clearly was not right, Defoe cleverly fell down. The English goalkeeper had the worst display ever, i think he killed any chances of becoming an International favourite to any manager managing the English National team.
Today on the Wembley Stadium at 20:00 GMT England will play Croatia to qualify for the Euro 2008, few days ago England was saved by Israel(The Zionist Entity), when it won over Russia 2-1, now Even if Russia wins today against Andorra and England won or drew with Croatia they will be through, England also might become the leader of the group if they win Croatia 2-0 or more. The match is airing on Aljazeera Sport Channel 1 here in the middle east.
But with Beckham and Robinson not chosen by Steve McClare, depending on the latest news, England chances just doesn’t look so bright. This is was he said lately, “There is great spirit and strength in the squad, and a steely resolve and determination, but there can be no excuses. The players have got to go out there and prove they deserve to reach Euro 2008. It is not done and dusted.”
Davor Suker the formal Croatia striker has told BBC Sport that he thinks England will get their point and will join Croatia in Euro 2008, “Croatia and England will make it to the championship,” he told BBC Sport. “It’s not easy to beat England at Wembley. They’ve been a little bit up and down this year but that’s normal when you have a lot of changes in the dressing room and on the pitch. I think England will qualify and be very strong at the finals in Austria and Switzerland.”
For sure i will be watching Eduardo da silva in the Croatia squad, and Richards in England, I expect both to show real control and power. Both very talented with Eduardo scoring 10 goals in this qualification round with Croatia. And of-course Richards have been playing well with both Manchester City and his National Team.
I expect a draw either 0-0 or 1-1, if there would be a winner i would expect Croatia to win, but it just looks like a draw for me now.
I know that the match was a friendly, but last couple years it was nice to watch the match, seeing all these talents playing together. Not this time, this time it was boring, oh sorry, no actually it was, booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring. Again, I know its just a friendly, but come on play for God’s sake, by the first few minutes of the second half it was like a challenge between me and myself to sit and continue watching, promising myself that it will get better, sadly it didn’t.
Even while watching the highlights i was bored, here have a look and tell me am wrong.
Real Madrid will be playing their 4th match in the Champions League Group C, nicely standing top of the table with 7 points, while Olympiakos is playing at home and is 2nd place with 4 points.
As we can recollect, Robinho played a very important role in the last match which ended 4-2 for Real Madrid, the match was sensational really made us all be on edge. Real Madrid players showed their real spirit in that match and showed how much they want to win this season.
One weird observation is that Real Madrid lost a match before meeting Olympiakos, in the first match they lost 2-1 to Espanyol and now they just got a 2-0 loss against Sevilla. But i still expect Real Madrid to focus in this match and just put whatever past wins and losses aside.
Wingers Arjen Robben and Gonzalo Higuaín and the backup goal keeper Jerzy Dudek are still injured but the central defender Pepe and midfielder Wesley Sneijder are back and going to be traveling with their team mates but not sure if any of them would be able to play full 90 minutes.
Olympiakos will be missing injured defender Paraskevas Antzas and Vassilis Torossidis who was sent off in the previous match. Michal Zewlakow is back from injury and might feature in the match, although i seriously doubt he could play a full match.
My eyes will be locked on 3 main players today, ofcourse Robinho especially after his great show against Olympiakos although he wasn’t able to do much against Sevilla in the Spanish league but still its going to be different here. Another Real Madrid player to watch would be Wesley Sneijder that is if he played any part in the game. From Olympiakos the amazing midfielder Predrag Djordjevic who is 35 years old and plays as if he is 25 amazing speed and dribbling.
Real Madrid expected formation (4-1-3-2): Casillas, Sergio Ramos, Metzelder, Cannavaro, Marcelo, Heinze, Diarra, Sneijder, Guti, Robinho - Raúl, van Nistelrooy
As usual Mancini just cant hold a score to the end of the match, this is just him, this isn’t the first time and wont be the last, Inter Milan played well during most of the match but Juventus was a powerful rival, they caused Inter Milan some trouble from time to time, and to be honest they deserved a draw, but that’s because our man here is so eager to keep the score 1-0 he just quickly go to defend where he gives the opposition the chance to slip through the lines and score. Se what he said after the match “We should have been more clinical, with a Juve that will never give up. It will serve as a lesson.” Believe me Mancini this isn’t your first lesson, this is so typical of you and your tactics, please try to learn for once in your life.
Anyway Inter Milan is still top of the table but you know even if we won the league a match between Juve and Inter just has a different taste. Its as if you are playing in a separate cup of something.
Well, first of all a nice goal from Fabregas with the help of Eboue, Adebayor and Sagna. Arsenal returned to the fired up mode in the start of the second half, they played well, but to be honest Almunia was not so confident but he did save us from some nice shots but still shakey performance.
The second Manchester United goal scored by Ronaldo was a result of a really nice Saha pass to Evra and a really bad defending job by Arsenal’s defence line. In the end gallas saved us in an amazing crazy goal.
I expected a 2-1 victory for Arsenal and they could’ve got that result, am not happy withh all arsene wenger’s substitutes I mean if they work with other teams that doesn’t mean it should always work.
Ok, so we all saw that Arsenal was denied a penalty, thats not my problem my problem is that we started all fired up but eventually we just couldn’t keep the ball with us, and couldn’t handle is well enough to keep building up attacks and scoring a goal. Although we saw Gallas had a nice try and some shot here and there. Ofcourse Manchester played well but the goal is clearly a lucky goal its not because Rooney was clever or in control.
Nobody wants to see the goal again ofcourse but, here is the goal anyway, CLICK HERE.

1 Lehmann
8 Diarra

They said we wont do it again, they said it was just a coincidence, they said it cant happen, real was just lucky they said, Villareal wasn’t ready. Well, we did it baby, AGAIN 5 freakin goals and against who? against Valencia, after all the warnings and the expectations that Real Madrid will fall and suffer in-front of Los Che but Los Merengues showed what they are made of and scored 5 goals.
So we are still top of the table, but by the way this wont make me change my opinion of Schuster, i still hate his guts and i think this glory isnt made by him but 100% by the stars we have. Robinho is proving day after day and goal after goal that he is NEEDED in Real Madrid, you can easily see that he is involved in all the goals.
Our next game is against Sevilla and if we play in this way then, i expect a win of at least 3-0 scoreline.
Reports are surfacing both the English and international media that the FA has sacked McClaren. It has been said late last night that he refused to resign. He said judge me on results, and we saw the amazing results. England lost to Croatia 3-2 last night and lost the qualification to Euro 2008.
