  • Sammy the Sheriff 11 years ago

    Real Madrid should make its teeming supporters happy this Tuesday by eliminating Rooney and his Manchester United team out UEFA Champions league.

  • Mr.N 11 years ago

    It possibly because Man U has no English Referee to steal the game for them.

  • Ike 11 years ago

    What did Essien say? The Headline could have been "Essien in Madrid Squard to face Man U"

  • Ern 11 years ago

    Squad, not squard.......but you are right, your headline is more accurate that the article's headline.

  • The Stallion 11 years ago

    Go back and read what you wrote. No body is 100% perfect.
    In any case, I think the odds favor Real.

  • Ern 11 years ago

    Right. LOL....Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones!
    But why would you think the odds favour Real? Man U has the away goal and they are playing at home....... maybe you mean you HOPE Real win, but if you are ...

  • The Stallion 11 years ago

    Yes, but Man U has a bad defence at this time. That's why. Apart from that too, in Europe, playing away from home doesn't count too much of a setback.
    Finally, I favored Madrid because I support Arsenal -- who also have the ...

    Ah!! you must have enjoyed saturday then, with Tottenham GIVING it to you!!

  • Ern 11 years ago

    Real eventually won with the help of the referee!

  • mike 11 years ago

    I think in this case, your "no body" should have been nobody instead. In any case you are justified, none is perfect.

  • Ern 11 years ago

    Mike, cheers for picking up on the mistake by The Stallion. I feel better now.
    However, since I started this whole "Grammar" thing, may I also point out that you should have said "no one" rather than "none"!!

  • Mike 11 years ago

    Wrong man, none in with reference to both sentences.

  • Ern 11 years ago

    Then you should have specified. And "neither" would have been a more appropriate word......plus this last sentence you wrote does not make sense "none in with reference" did you mean none IS in reference?

  • step 11 years ago

    if he plays or not what is our interest in that game!!!

  • Avogadro 11 years ago

    Obviously you cared well enough. You read and wrote your comment, right? Our interest in the game is that our countryman is playing in it. Probably one of the best international soccer players from Ghana, if not the very b ...

  • NANA 11 years ago

    Well said Avogadro,As Ghanaians we should learn to give credit where it's due not pull him down.That's how great nations behave.

  • Flower Bird 11 years ago

    Don't mind this selfish guy whose country is Real Madrid Football Club. He sits on the bench most of the time, and will be the first player to express his best wishes to Ghanaian s, not Real Madrid fans if his team wins.Who ...

  • JH-New York City 11 years ago

    After a long brake from action due to injuries and, a last minute transfer to Madrid,it's reasonable and simple common sense for the GFA to give Essien a brake from National duties to justify his inclusion at where his stomac ...
