Серёжу кто только не успокаивал

Серж такой ранимый...жалко его, впрочем думаю, что камень на душе у всей команды.

Ну, что ж... вчера Барселона на своём поле влетела от Баварии 0-3. Стыд и позор если честно. Больше чем клуб в полуфинале продул с общим счётом 0 - 7. Ндаа...

Вчерашний матч был довольно скучен. В особенности, если сравнивать с матчем на СБ днём ранее. Ни интриги, ни игры, ни эмоций. Барса такое ощущение и не старалась ничего предпринять, чтобы скрасить свой позор. А Бавария действовала по ситуации: в первом тайме играла с оглядкой на свои ворота и к чужим особо массово не пёрла, а во втором, видя бессилие Барсы, пошла добивать.

Барса такое ощущение и не старалась ничего предпринять, чтобы скрасить свой позор.

Сдаться на полпути и повесить обреченно руки (точнее ноги ) - это не дело для топ-клуба.

Моменты вчерашнего матча

[CrazyFan]

Всё-таки люблю я футбол... Эмоции, драйв, страсть, борьба. Пусть в этом матче не было всего этого. Зато эмоции были после матча у игроков Баварии. Маечки красивые)

RVP misses out yet again as Carrick is crowned United's Player of the Year

Michael Carrick has been named Manchester United's Players' Player of the Year as the Premier League champions continued to celebrate their title-winning season.
The midfielder has excelled at Old Trafford during what proved to be Sir Alex Ferguson's final campaign.
And he was given the nod on Wednesday ahead of Robin van Persie who also missed out on the Football Writers' and PFA Player of the Year awards to Gareth Bale.

The Holland striker did at least pick up the Fans' Player of the Year gong as well as Goal of the Season for his strike against Aston Villa.
Meanwhile, Ferguson admitted he was desperate 'to go out a winner' after being beaten to the Barclays Premier League title by rivals Manchester City last year.
The Manchester United manager, who retires after 26 years of unprecedented success at Old Trafford, explained how important it was to him to leave his post with the club back on top of the pile.
Ferguson and his players celebrated yet again on Wednesday night at the club's annual Player of the Year awards.
Speaking on stage, Ferguson told MUTV: 'That was an issue when (wife) Cathy and I chatted about this at Christmas. At that point we had a five-point lead and I thought we had a great chance.
'I said "I really need to go out a winner. We need to win something". After the disappointment of last season we couldn't take a second one. I was hopeful we'd win it and we did.
'We had a terrific points lead. The problem is when you have a lead and you start to lose a point. When we lost to City in the Monday night game you start to think "Christ, you can't throw this away".'
That need to end on a high note extends to the final game of the Ferguson era at West Brom on

The silverware may have been sewn up already, but Ferguson has no interest in signing off with defeat.
'We need to win the game on Sunday,' he added.
'We won the last home game (against Swansea) and I don't want to lose my last game, that's for sure.'
Ferguson was instrumental in the decision to appoint Everton manager David Moyes as his successor and he explained why he felt his fellow Scot was the man for the job.
United may have known plenty of success in recent seasons, but Ferguson feels the ability to deal with adversity could be crucial for Moyes.
'What I know of David is he's hard working, there's an integrity about him, he's got a work ethic about him and he's a serious football man.
'These are qualities he's going to need. If you look at what he's done at Everton for instance.

'Eleven years without real financial backing, but he persevered and created some decent teams in the last few years.
'One thing you have to do here is sacrifice and persevere. It's not always a golden path of riches.
'There are hard days, there are difficult days, there are bad losses.
'Our supporters have suffered many things but they've also enjoyed many things.'
United's chief executive David Gill is also departing at the end of the season, but he is content that the foundations being taken over by Moyes are built for success.
'It will be strange (when Ferguson leaves) but we've got the infrastructure there,' he told MUTV.
'We have very good staff off and on the field. It'll be strange but David Moyes coming in will know he's got a rock-solid club, a club that has just won the Premier League by a big points margin.'

Ferguson's Q&A from the awards ceremony
Jim Rosenthal: You've just seen a video montage, how does that make you feel?
Sir Alex Ferguson: I think I'll be able to enjoy it now looking back. I think it's a different perspective looking back as, having managed the club for that length of time, I was always looking forward not back but now I can reflect on my career a bit more.
JR: You've not finished yet - there's a game on Sunday...
AF: Exactly. We've got to win the game on Sunday. West Brom will want to win their last home game but I don't want to lose my last game, that's for sure.
JR: Did you want to go out as a winner?
AF: It was an issue. When Cathy and I chatted about it at Christmas, at that time, we had a five-point lead. I thought we had a great chance and I said we really need to win something. With the disappointment last year, I couldn't take a second one. I was hopeful we would win it and we did and then, in March, I let the club know.
JR: You've managed to win the league at a canter...
AF:I don't think it was a canter but I think we had a terrific points lead. The problem when you've got the lead is when you start to lose a point or two, we lost to City on the Monday night for instance, and you start saying: 'Christ, we can't throw this away'. Fortunately, the next week, we played at Stoke and were terrific and then we went down to West Ham, their crew, and we had to battle in these games. I thought then we'd be okay.
JR: Was it hard to keep your decision to retire under wraps?
AF: I mean sometimes I was sitting with my family and you forget you're actually going to retire and talk about next year. You're afraid you're going to blurt something else but I didn't tell my sons until the end of March, well Jason knew earlier as he works a lot with me. I only told my brother the night before it was announced and he wasn't too pleased! I got a bit of invective off him. It was difficult but the club knew in March. We sat down and discussed it and, of course, David [Gill] is retiring too and it gave me a problem as I didn't want to think we'd be leaving the club in the lurch you know.
JR: Were you happy that it was largely kept out of the media?
AF: The rumour started out didn't it? On Tuesday night, the rumour has gone out and it's hard to keep things intact at Old Trafford. It's a bit of a sieve at times and news seems to creep out from all different angles and sources. I've tried over the years to eliminate these leakages of news getting out. I always thought, over the last 10 years especially, a part of my job is to keep us out of the news, which is nigh on impossible. You have to accept we are news but there's a difference between good news and bad news. I always tried to keep the bad news away from the club and that's difficult in the modern day.

JR: What qualities does David Moyes have as your replacement?
AF: What I know of David is he's hard working and has an integrity about him. He's also got a work ethic about him and he's a serious football man. I think these are the qualities he's going to need. He's got a perseverance about him - look at what he's done at Everton. 11 years without any tremendous financial backing but he's persevered with it and created some decent teams in the last few years. They are the qualities he's going to need at our club. The one thing you have to do is definitely sacrifice and persevere - it's not always a golden path of riches. You have hard days and difficult days especially with the losses. We lost in the last seconds - for 10 seconds we were champions last year - but that's part of our history and we're used to that. Our supporters have suffered many things but also enjoyed many things. It's just part of our history.
JR: You said here last year that the fightback would start from now...
AF: Absolutely. There was nothing to be ashamed of last year. You can all analyse it in many ways and you do that every time. We lost at Norwich this year and I was saying: 'Christ, this could cost us the league'. You think that way, it's instinct and the natural way of handling things. You know a defeat means something at this club but, in context, you win games and say we were a bit lucky, so it balances out. The name of the game is to be points ahead of the rest.
JR: Has it been an emotional week or so for you?
AF: Yes, it definitely has been. On Sunday, I did what I had to do and I thought I did it well. I didn't show my emotion too much. When I announced to the staff, I was a bit blubby, you know. I think, funnily enough, the last few days have been hard and Monday night, after the parade, I slept for 10 hours. I think it was the first time in my life. I was absolutely gone - knackered! I didn't go in [to work]. I don't know what time it was but I kept feeling the presence of Cathy coming into the bedroom. I think she was checking I was still alive!

Вообще грядущий футбольный сезон обещает быть очень любопытным. Причём на всех фронтах и в большинстве лиг. Что и говорить - столько кадровых изменений в клубах.

Моуринью теперь в Челси. А в Реале вместо него Карло Анчелотти. В ПСЖ (откуда и перешёл Анчелотти) теперь рулит Блан. Бенитес из Челси уехал в Италию. Итальянец Манчини покинул тренерский пост в Ман. Сити и на его место пришёл испанец Пеллегрини. Баварию теперь возглавляет Гвардиола, а в Ман Юнайтед теперь непривычно в тех. зоне расхаживать будет Мойес...

И это только тренера... Про игроков вообще молчу. Так что интересно будет. Одно жалко: НТВ+ перекупил права на трансляцию всего и вся и теперь возможность посмотреть футбол будет либо через эту самую "тарелку", либо через интернет. Что понятно, не всегда удобно. До последнего буду надеяться, что по "Спорту" всё же будут показывать не Французскую лигу, а что-нибудь поприличнее.

Я так соскучилась по футболу за межсезонье, что сегодня даже наш Согаз посмотрела. Волгу - Зенит. Нет, наш футбол можно смотреть только из бешеного чувства патриотизма. Никакого эстетического удовольствия игра не доставляет. Впечатления: смотреть можно, куча борьбы, поле... русское поле, проблески качественной игры лишь эпизодические.
Ну, и Данни... вот ему я искренне симпатизирую в Зените.

Сейчас смотрю Вильгельмсхафен – Боруссия. Ну, что сказать... полутоварищеский матч. Одна команда из первого дивизиона, а другая - из четвёртого. По раскладу сил тут и говорить не приходится. Дортмунд не забил, но зато доминирует весь первый тайм.

[Tatian]

наш Согаз посмотрела. Волгу - Зенит.

Там, похоже, сам судья не понял, кому и за что карточку показал.

[CrazyFan]

Да... судейство в той игре было просто невообразимым. Не стану говорить, что у нас самое худшее судейство в мире. В испанском чемпионате тоже такие вопиющие ошибки допускаются, что хоть стой хоть падай.
