Man U has booked their date with the dirty cheaters from Barca. Yes, this is the crème da crème of futebol clubs in the world.

Sir Alex and the boys scored two-second half goals to put away a pesky German side Schalke 04 4-1 and 6-1 aggregate.

Sure it was touch and go for a moment or two when Schalke cut the Red Devils lead 2-1 on a goal Jose Jurado in the 35^th minute.

Sloppy and stupid defending by Man U caused the Jurado goal.

The mighty boys from Old Trafford rattled the cages on two-second half goals by Anderson (72^nd & 76^th minutes).

Antonio Valencia and Darron Gibson ripped the twines for Sir Alex and his mates.

Man U looked good but Sir Alex and the boys will have their hands full with Barcelona.

The Spanish side has real firepower and tremendous team speed.

The Red Devils have team speed to burn but Man U lacks some real Gatline gun firepower.

I can’t wait for this puppy.

The fun happens on May 28^th at Wembley.

On a huge side note, Sir Alex made eight changes to the team that started against Arsenal last Sunday.

Sir Alex has his eye on the EPL prize.

Sir Alex had this to say- “They did me proud. It was a semi-final and the fact it’s such an important game does create a bit of doubt in your mind of ‘Am I doing the right thing?’ but I’m glad we were vindicated.

“It’s fantastic for the club. We’re where we want to be. I’ve said many times we should have done better in Europe over the years and I think this team can win the cup.”

Keeper Edwin van der Sar said this “perfect” demolition of Schalke. It was perfect, after the first leg we were quite well set up to be able to make changes and keep the majority of players fresh for the big game on Sunday.

“We saw how emotional Barcelona were yesterday and maybe our reaction was a bit more subdued but Barca’s was because they have a big rivalry (against Real Madrid).

“Barcelona play exceptionally good football and of course it’s going to be difficult, they showed that in the final in 2009. We have to show we learned the lesson from that one and be better prepared.”

Flamengo stopped their three match winless streak with a lucky 1-0 win over Ceara.

Mengao’s offense was non-existent in the win.

Globo Esporte-Num dia de estreias apagadas e atuação fraca do time, a torcida do Flamengo pôde comemorar pelo menos o fim do jejum de quatro jogos sem vitória e de três sem balançar as redes. Num gol de pênalti marcado por Petkovic no fim do primeiro tempo, o Rubro-Negro derrotou o Ceará por 1 a 0, neste sábado, no Maracanã. A equipe com defesa menos vazada do Brasileirão foi superior na maior parte do primeiro tempo e no fim da segunda etapa, mas saiu com outro resultado negativo e já acumula sete partidas sem vencer.

 The only saving grace was a PK awarded when Rubro-Negro’s Williams made a mad rush into the box. This push forced Anderson to foul Williams in the 44^th minute.

Petkovic nailed the PK for the only tally of the match.

Game, set, and match to Flamengo.

We picked up a much-needed win but if we don’t find a way to rip the twines, more often Flamengo is in deep do-do.

Marcelo Lomba played well in goal.

He made three key stops in the match.

Newly signed Leandro Amaral and Renato Abreu played like crap. This was another one of those horrible signings by chief idiot Patricia Amorim. This lady needs to be fired.

Globo Esporte wrote this-A grande expectativa era pelas estreias de Leandro Amaral e Renato Abreu. O primeiro teve atuação muito fraca, com pouca movimentação e receio de fazer as jogadas – não atuava há mais de um ano, desde julho de 2009. O meia, que veio do futebol árabe, mostrou estar sem ritmo de jogo, mas ao menos repetiu a boa pontaria dos velhos tempos em bela cobrança de falta, no segundo tempo

She sucks big time.

Get a real futebol Prez not a fake one.

The points were important.

Mengao has moved up the table.

Flamengo now has 20 points.

Na 15ª rodada, o Flamengo, que com a vitória pulou para 20 pontos ganhos e está, provisoriamente, na sétima posição, irá à Arena da Baixada encarar o Atlético-PR, no próximo domingo. O Ceará, que por enquanto caiu para o quarto lugar, estacionado nos 21, receberá no Castelão, no próximo sábado, o Grêmio.

But we need to sign a real striker not guys from the geriatric ward.

We have some huge fixtures on Saturday and Sunday in the EPL. Manchester United and Everton battle each other in Everton’s house Elwood Park.

The Red Devils are a scant one point behind league leaders Chelsea. Rooney and the guys need to come out breathing fire. In Man U’s last five road games, they have two wins, two draws, and one loss.

Man U has struggled on the road. The Red Devils are coming off a road tie with Aston Villa. This road match will be a key test to see if the Red Devils can become the first EPL team to get a four peat.

Rooney, Berbatov, and Anderson need to attack and create a ton of scoring chances. Rio Ferdinand and Nani will not play due to suspensions.

Without Rio and Nani Man U could pull a Keystone Cops routine on the defensive end of the pitch

With Giggs out due to a broken forearm this will hurt Man U a lot. How much? This depends on Berbatov.

The Toffees will be missing one of their key players too. Midfielder Tim Cahill will be out at least three weeks with a pulled calf muscle. 

We have a huge match against Sunderland at Emirates on Saturday. Let’s hope we put the fiasco of what happened in Portugal behind us.

I hope someone slapped Fabianski upside the head for his stupid and dumb play in net against Porto on Wednesday.

This bum Fabianski needs to wake up and make sure he doesn’t play stupid in goal if Arsenal is forced to use this clown in goal if Almunia is not ready to go.

Both Diaby and Gallas will be out. This is going to kill us but I am sure the return of Alex Song will help.

God please don’t let us pull another Rocky Horror Picture Show at home.

The Gunners need to take care of business at home.

Arsenal needs to take names and kick butt.

Fabregas and the guys need to torch the twines.

Chelsea has a road trip to Wolverhampton. Chelsea has a habit of losing on the road. The Blues are coming off a huge road loss to Everton. Wolves are not that good. In plain English, they stink big time.

Let’s hope the Blues have a brain fart and lose big time.

Over the past few weeks, the big boys have stubbed their toes big time on the road.

The EPL winner will have the best road record.

Chelsea is 6-3-4 on the road. Man U is 7-2-4. Arsenal is 6-3-4.

Last year Chelsea, Man U, and Arsenal had a combined nine total road losses.  Right now, they have a combined twelve losses with 12 matches left in the season.

They key is hold serve at home and win at least 55 to 60% of your road matches.

When the dust settles the EPL title race will come more into focus.
