Blues meet their match, Reds power on

The folks at chickendinner told you Chelsea wouldn’t get a result in Romania, so lets hope you followed their betting advice and had a better night than the likes of Didier Drogba.

Back in the UK, Dirk, Robbie and Steve managed to sink PSV Eindhoven, the latter of whom treated us to his 100th goal in a Red shirt.

They’re from the Transylvanian bit of Romania…

CFR Cluj? Who are these strange, shiny people, and what do they want? Here’s what we know…

3. CFR Cluj have lost just three of their last forty home games in both the Romanian League and Europe.

Michel Platini has launched an attack on Arsene Wenger for being careful with money and supporting video replays of questionable decisions.

The comments, made in Dauphine Libere, couldn’t have come at a more inopportune time: Wenger’s financial prudence is widely admired in the current economic climate, and the calls for video replays have been propelled by the Watford debacle.
