FBK Kaunas were leading vs Liverpool one nil tonite, but lost 3:1. Nice game. Bloody scousers, but hey, we had five minutes of footie orgasm

How much do tickets cost for a typical premiership friendlies? I'm taking a look at tickets for Chelsea v. DC United and they stand at $70 apiece for midfield seats. Seems pricey for a friendly.

Around £10-£15 ($20-$30)

When else you going to see Chelsea school the DC squad LIVE?

Money well spent!

I hadn't thought of that! It's costs a lot of money to go out in the qualifiers!

Wait for the 'we can pull it back' headlines starting Monday!

Thats right, no UEFA cup for them either. I foresee an unbeaten league title for them.

What I like most about this report is how american it is. I find it really funny.

I hope Everton get Liverpool and knock them out, that'd be very funny.

It would've been funnier if they also adapted the names: Joe Mourinho, AJ Robben, Bobby Huth.

But youre not bitter?

And what was all the sh1te from Mourinho yesterday? "My job is harder than the Wigan boss becuase how can I find better goalies than Cech and Cudini?"

Fergie MkII in the making!

It'd be beautiful. All the fuss about getting into the champions league again and if they got knocked out by Everton they'd end up even losing the UEFA cup place they would have had if they hadn't.

He only said it was harder to buy players, which is true.

Anyone better than who he already has is probably at a huge club already. As he said, he already has the two best goalkeepers in the league, how could he improve there?

You have the best two so where is the problem? You can effectively ignore the position for the next 3 seasons. It's not a problem now is it?

I think he was just pointing out that the press are always speculating about who he'll sign but with his almost perfect squad there are very few players he can buy that'd make the squad improve. Whereas Wigan could buy almost anyone to improve their squad.
