Yes Mole, I saw it.
Was some breath-taking skill there.
She is probably the best woman soccer player I have ever seen. Think the Aussie's did a magnificent job to contain her the other night.

Indeed Mole

A stellar performance.

The Americans are green with envy.

Her battle with Germany's Number 18 should be a great highlight of the Cup final.

Kerstin Garefrekes is brilliant on the ball and looks dangerous everytime she goes forward.

But the performance of Lio Messi in the La Liga midweek Barcelona drubbing of Zaragoza was even better.

70,000 Camp Nou faithful giving him a standing ovation and chanting his name when he was subbed 10 minutes from the end was a worthy commentary on his blistering performance.

And the great thing about the three games referenced in this post is that a total of 12 goals were scored.

Aloha...McGarret

McG,
not to mention Arsenal touching up Derby last weekend.

that was a football master class.

you mention Messi, what about the performances of Cesc Fabregas this season.

His game appears complete now with the goal scoring touch.

total goals for this thread - 17

As it much it pains me to say it - I have to agree that Arsenal are playing beautiful football at the moment and look to be very, very serious EPL Championship material - and will be a force in the Champions League.

I have been a fan of Fabregas for a while - but he does seem to have fully ripened for this campaign.

Throw in the likes of Hleb, a wonderful passer of the ball with great vision - together with the aweseome talent of Adebayor up front - and you have a team that will always be very entertaining to watch.

Especially against Derby, who are legless.

And the fact that Rosicky can stroll in off the bench after 60 minutes just underscores the strength of the squad that Wenger has assembled.

Bugger.

yeah, playing Derby is a fair point. But they do seem comforable against most sides they've played since a somewhat shaky beginning to the campaign.

They were in total control against Seville.

It these times of Billionaire owners it is remarkable Wenger has assembled a brilliant young side that can actually compete without using anywhere near his budget.

In fact, i see they are the most profitable club in England and he now has millions at his disposal for new players. But who do they need? A new keeper and a couple of defenders at most.

One player who seems to get forgotten is Van Persie, this guy is unbeleivable. just go to youtube and search for his goals against blackburn and charlton in recent seasons to see why.

Agree 100% with your Wenger comments.

And Van Persie can play a bit also...

Arsenal certainly bit the bullet hard when deciding to move from their spiritual home of Highbury.

But filling the Emirates with 60,000 punters every fortnight or so has shown it to be a very shrewd business call.

It has been a popular concert venue as well.

And I'm tipping a popular forum stalwart might like to get there in November for a particularly noteworthy musical reunion.

Cheers...McGarret
