In contrast, Juventus had under their employment the best foreigners then ... Michel Platini & Zbigniew Boniek.

AC Milan finally realised the way to go was dutch ... so by the late 80s, they got Marco van Basten, Ruud Gullit & Frank Rijkard. They never looked back after that.
To compete, the other half of Milan engaged Lothar Matthaues, Juergen Klinsmann & Andreas Brehme.

milan actually made a mistake with blissett in fact they wanted to sign john barnes.

Welcome bro to the thread. Unfortunately none of us can up you here as it's no longer allowed in the EPL forum (King must have zapped you in another thread). But what you say sound interesting and I'd certainly like to have a first hand view of Pool, the songs, the passion, the piss, and what not.

isit?but brehme's penalty was one of the most well-taken penalties i have ever seen!!! the keeper, already garnered a reputation of being a penalty stopper dive on the correct side at full stretch but still cant reach... cos the ball curled into the side-netting leh...

Always feel that Italy is the birthplace of all top top defenders...

Till today, we still world class defenders like Nesta, Cannavaro..
But the reproduction line seems to slow down thesedays...

For the past 5 years , over here, Jamie has been a role model. Ask any Reds Fan, i think they can vouch for it. I believe you can vouch for that too.

Ok ... I'm fully convinced you are indeed from that part of the world now.

Yeah, I zapped him at the above ...

scouser_lad ... perhaps you can post something new on your BKK trip again?
Many of the Reds here can't wait to up your points ... for the sin I've done.
Anyway, since you're gonna spend a few days here in Sillypore ... I'm more than delighted to play host - buy you a couple of lagers & perhaps watch a Reds game with the lot here??

I seriously think that was nothing more than an innocent joke from the commentators ... though rather witty, since both Blissett & Barnes were playing for Watford at that time ... Elton John was then chariman.
Serie A was the richest league with the best foreigners then ... how to believe they could actually goof up like that?? Really a case of all niggers look the same?? But Blissett was really dark-skinned while Barnes was more brown, being Jamaican by descent.

Matthaeus was the captain, inspiration, motivation & thunderbolt (not unlike Riise or Carlos, but he's right-footed) in that German team ... so, yes, he was the assigned penalty-taker.
About the boot ... it's not so much as spoilt, but actually a brand-new pair ... the pair used in the semi-final was replaced with this one. As he was fully confident with the "yet-to-be-fully-seasoned" pair of boot ... he passed the buck to the player he trusted most.
Together with Klinsmann, they played for Inter Milan ... for the record, Klinsmann dun take penalties.

[KingEros]

Just saw something that was multi-orgasmic ...

Manchester Utd as BPL champs this summer
$2.00 >> $3.50

Chelsea as BPL champs this summer
$2.25 >> $2.00

Liverpool as BPL champs this summer
$6.00 >> $3.90

Originally given a distant opening odds of $6.00, compared to the Devil's $2.00 & Chelski's $2.25 ... we have closed that gap at an amazing pace. Well, who would cum more than once after seeing the Devil's odds grow longer at a more amazing pace leh??

i knew mattaeus was the designated penalty taker then. but judging from brehme's perfect (in my view lah) penalty kick, i felt that the german coach wanted to throw argie's goalie (cant spell his name right and third choice somemore) off cos he was damn adept at saving penalties. argentina must have studied mattaeus and knew that he always blast the spot kick... so in my view, i felt that brehme was actually the internal penalty taker.

and i did see brehme taking penalties for inter, again if i didnt remember wrongly. u see, i depend on memory, unlike bro rahl who keeps a record.

Well, I was living in Germany between '88 & '90 ... Matthaeus gave that response (about his boots still being NOT at its seasoned best) when he was interviewed immediately after the game. I dun keep records too ... just images of what I've seen or read or heard myself.

no problem, mate... we'll take anything here...

Well, in this part of the world ... it's either Hard Rock Cafe (a tie-up by the local LFC ISC) or Penny Black (an Irish pub where the expatriates naturally congregate).
For the longest time, I've been trying the boys here to watch the games with me at the above-mentioned places ... but I guess perhaps you being the guest-of-honour might swing their decision??

Understand your trip is in Sep, with the following games lined up:
1 Sep = Derby County (H)
15 Sep = Portsmouth (A)
22 Sep = Birmingham City (H)
29 Sep = Wigan Athletic (A)
Of course, there'll also be the Champions League group matches to consider ... so when exactly would you be stopping over in Sillypore??

Now the scums wanna investigate us over the Heinze deal. Nbzzz. Talk about real double standards.
