'Were we really that shit?'
[Answers on a postcard to the Via Turati Twilight Rest Home for the Terminally Knackered, Milano.]
*sigh* That was pretty diabolical, really. The defense was shambolic - Janku was half asleep, Kala wasn't much better (blinding moment of brilliance aside), and the less said about Zambro's misguided attempt to get all feisty, the better - and, to be honest, the rest of the team weren't much better. [Yup, it was so awful, I've just used the word 'better' three times in the same sentence.] Basically, everyone looked like they were knackered. [Apart from the Duck, and he just didn't have his head screwed on properly. Although Paolo tearing a strip off him was, um, hot.] Plus, it was pissing it down with rain, and not even the consolation of a white kit. :( Things got so desperate, I was even heard to admit that if The Ukrainian could get a goal, I might think about forgiving him. Yeah. That bad.

Largely caption-free, as that way is better for them my blood pressure.
*sighs* 'Why is my defence so very not-waterproof?
[Make the most of these, ladies - they are all we got.]
[OK, the Duck looks hot with wet hair. There, I've said it.]
Emerson. Would you kindly do everyone a favour, and just FUCKING RETIRE?
The less said about Janku, the better.
[He did not have one of his better nights.]
Paolo: *was distinctly dischuffed with the way things were turning out*
Paolo: Blimey!
[OH VERY BLESS.]
DRAMAS! I LOVES IT! *dances*
'BUT SERIOUSLY! DID YOU SEE WHAT HE DID?'
Ron: ME PODS!
'Come on, man, that was totally not called for. I might want to have baby!Rons one day.'
'Um, people? My knackers?'
[I don't blame you, Gianluca, I'd totally try and cop a feel, too.]
Whoops.
Um, yeah.
Not quite sure what these are doing here.
Bastard totally did the one thing I'd asked him not to.
Twice.
The miserable, heartless, OMGHOT git.
Nngh.
Hoo God, TONGUE! *dispenses instant forgiveness*
Ahem. Back to reality.
They don't like to make our lives easy/relaxed/fun, do they?
Up next is an UEFA Cup game with Wolfsburg on Wednesday [SQUEEEE!], followed by a visit from Udinese at the weekend. Then, a holiday. I think everyone'll need it, by then...
