What a Travesty!!!....only 5 minutes played out of 6....Drogba scoring a goal after he shouldn't be on the pitch the little play actor...Everything went Chelseas way...Referee I think wasn't even real he lost control and never got it back.

Must have been watching a different match mate, both teams were pretty even with their bad fowls and decisions in their favour, Barca fell easily but that's expected with teams from the continent now and some of them were pretty malicious, especially Marquez blatantly trying to kick Drogba as he went through and scored.

Terry's goal, ****ing awesome!

I would take out Celtic and Messi.

Although if I made the poll I would of included the likes of Eto'o, Gilardinho, Drogba, Adriano and Podolski instead of Kaka, Gerrard and Ronaldinho.

:p

Adriano? :rofl: Maybe Cruz, Crespo or Ibrahimovic... and Inter Milan is actually the strongest team of the world (Mourinho said this too).

P.S.

Gilardino not Gilardinho!

Well I did post that a month or so back. Inter have allowed Adriano to go back home to Brazil for a while now due to poor form and he is supposedly tired :/. Cruz does not play that much for Inter, Crespo maybe deserves a place, and Ibra is not exactly a proficient goalscorer.

Morientes possibly deserves a place as well, eight goals in nine games for him this season.

Barca v Chelsea 2-2 was a fair result.

Lampard scored a great goal, he still can't fake a dive in the penalty area, he needs to ask Decco for lessons.

Dropja (I know drop yes) needs to quit falling over.

Great game, fair result, I think the ref was o.k.

Ibra is not exactly a proficient goalscorer.

Thats why Arsenal let him go as he was a member of their youth squad.

It was a good match, not much football.

If anything i thought chelsea was the better team who played some better football. If anything i thought Barca from the start set the tone of the very disrupted football by the pushing and diving. Chelsea could only really respond by joining in.

This may sound pro chelsea, i hate them but i hate Barca

Tonights Arsenal vs CSKA Moscow! We are going to win it comfortably tonight!

If by 'we' you mean Arsenal, I hope so. I still can't believe UEFA are happy to look back at the tape of Henrys goal and say it wasn't hand ball, but wont rescind the card. I really think football associations really need to start carding players or rescinding cards based on tv footage after matches. It doesn't make any sense not to.

Now this is a shocking defeat for Manchester United. After thrashing a side 0-4, you don't expect a team to loose. I think that the weak squad in the first 45 minutes made all the difference. United tried in the second half but then they couldn't beat the Danish side. Ronaldo's last minute goal was ruled offside, so a day to forget for United. They still are a good side and this defeat shouldn't unsettle them.

I meant Arsenal. I am a massive Arsenal fan. Anyways... we should have won it like 5-0 or maybe 10-0!

ManU got the team I was hoping they would get, well one of them atleast. It was either them or Barca, and that would have been quite a spectacle. ManU, hopefully on current form and Barca with Etoo and Messi back from injury.

What are the odds that a British/English team will lift the trophy this year?

      If you actually used it instead of responding like a petulant child you might be surprised. I switched from Google some time ago and have been very satisfied.
    • [NEWS] Over 105000 games are available to play on Linux.

      By FateTrap · Posted

      I am one of the first people to use the DXVK technology. In the channel below you can see some videos that I have made using this technology, including Assassin's Creed Odyssey. https://www.youtube.com/@nahum7995/videos Assassin's Creed Odyssey experienced several bugs and technical issues during its first months after release. It launched with its own fair share of funny but frustrating glitches. I ran it on DXVK 9 days after its release and I played it for many hours but didn't see a single significant bug on Linux. Assassin's Creed Odyssey is widely celebrated for pushing the franchise in bold new directions and specifically for nailing several elements better than any other title in the AC series: Player Choice & Branching Narrative, The Mercenary & Cultist System, Mythological Integration, Overpowered Combat Abilities, Open World Exploration But what I'm trying to point out is that this game wasn't quite playable on most windows systems, until a few months after its release when most of the bugs were fixed. However, on Linux it ran completely flawless from day one, although DXVK had seen little development and refinement at the time. What do you think the situation will be in 2026 now that most bugs and glitches of DXVK have been completely eliminated? This is information from Google about these situations that I am quoting. In many cases, using DXVK (a translation layer that converts DirectX 9, 10, or 11 into Vulkan) can result in more stable frame times and higher performance than native Windows rendering. This happens primarily by bypassing driver overhead and multithreading draw calls that were previously restricted to a single CPU core. Older APIs (like DirectX 9 and 11) are largely single-threaded on the CPU side. DXVK translates these calls to Vulkan, which is highly multi-threaded. This reduces CPU-bound stuttering on weaker processors. In certain cases, GPU manufacturers (especially AMD) have significantly better and more modern Vulkan drivers than they do for legacy DirectX. Vulkan gives developers—and in this case, the translation layer—closer control over how resources are held in VRAM. This can prevent micro-stutters and sudden frame drops during chaotic gameplay. Yes, certain games, particularly older DirectX 9 to 11 titles, can run with fewer crashes on DXVK than on native Windows. By intercepting DirectX draw calls and translating them into the modern, highly efficient Vulkan API, DXVK bypasses the limitations and poor driver support that cause instability in aging game engines. PlayStation 1, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 can be easily and perfectly emulated on Linux. In fact, modern Linux emulators offer high-performance upscaling, widescreen patches, and automatic controller mapping out of the box.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 PlayStation 1/2/3 games look drastically better on Linux thanks to resolution upscaling. Furthermore, it is also a fact that you cannot play many fun games on Windows either, isn't it? - The Nintendo Switch has an extensive library of exclusive games. - PlayStation has an extensive library of exclusive games - Android has "mobile-exclusive" games, meaning they are exclusive to mobile devices (iOS and Android) and aren't available on PC or consoles. And finally, it is also the case that in the next five years there will be games that millions of people will say you absolutely must play and that they want to play this specific game that released a few days ago. However, the other side of this story is that currently, absolutely no one cares that they cannot play these upcoming games right now.
