Yes, Italian football, once the best in Europe, is now a load of pasta. Roma tonight were total pants, just like all the other top Serie A teams English sides have been up against lately. So how did Juve, Milan, Inter, Lazio and all go into such catastrophic decline? They've still got the players but something is horribly wrong.

I still can't believe that Liverpool qualified for the knockout stages after only winning ONE game. Pathetic. Liverpool are not even that good - watch them go on to win it now. They were damn lucky in winning the UEFA cup last year, so it wouldn't suprise me if they did it again.

They were THE luckiest team last year, no question about it.

Two blatant hand balls in the box in the FA Cup final.

Countless blatant penalty appeals for the opposition turned down en route to the UEFA final, and another in the Worthy final against FIRST DIVISION opposition.

If they were to have the opposite of this luck next season they'd be relegated.
