Also I fucking knew that Hearts were going to beat us, I bloody well knew it.

Right from kick-off Hearts were at us. It was a shambles and we must improve for Wednesday.
P.S. Will you be going to the game? My season ticket is all sorted.

An all-English CL final? I wouldn't mind so long as it wasn't Man Utd v Chelsea. Then I wouldn't know who to support, I hate both equally! XD - and after that FA Cup final between them last season it'd most likely be a snoozefest..

Sadly I won't, I'm poor at the moment just coming back from a 3 week stay in New Zealand and need to save up cash first. Will be heading to the nearest pub though to see it of course.
The Stuttgart games are our must wins for this years group stages to have a chance at third nevermind top 2, a heavy loss to Hearts was great preparation since they're a far better team than we faced a few years ago.
Nice to have the Group of Potential Shafting.
I'm also suprised that Sven has not delivered what I expected and actually made Man City a bit of a force and now are second place. When did he become a good manager?

I can't see Rangers getting much at all out of their group to be brutally honest. They'll be lucky to finish third I think.
It's amazing to see what Sven's doing at Man City. Especially since most of the team had never even meet each other prior to this season, they've come together nicely. I think it's just a flash in the pan though. We'll be looking at the usual top 4 by Christmas...

I really wanted to see Sven fail badly at Man City but he's managed to form a strong team, the question is: how long can it last?

Sven was always a good club manager - he couldn't manage it with England but he has a very good record with clubs like IFK Gothenburg, Benfica, Roma and Lazio prior to that. People in the UK just let his tenure at England cloud their judgement on him. Which is absurd anyway, since he was STILL better than the likes of Taylor, Hoddle and Keegan who had been before him. The point is anyway that he is a talented manager, whether or not he failed to deliver with England.
I hope he does well at Man City, it will annoy the press who are desperate for him to fail. But I get the feeling Man City's tendency to be...well...rubbish will probably come to the surface sooner or later.

That's the reason I'd like to Sven succeed; to make a mockery of the press and all other people who have doubted him. I'm not a fan of his time as England boss, but there's very few Englishmen who are. It's good to see more and more teams becoming a challenge in the Premiership though.
I wouldn't say that's really much of a disaster; from what I can tell, Osasuna have fast become a side to be reckoned with in Spain. Not of the standard of Barcelona, Real Madrid, Valencia and the other big name teams, but still a team worthy of getting a European place. There's always going to be upsets anyway.

Don't take me wrongly, I'm not doubting Sven's managerial qualities, he has a great record at club level I just wanted him to fail miserably this time.
