Well quite a weekend of football where to begin.  The games I watched this weekend were the Bayern vs Hanover game, Sevilla vs Getafe, Everton vs Blackburn and finally the Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur.

I was most disappointed with the fact that I couldn't catch the Real Atletico Derby, as well as Henry's debut with Barca.  Unfortunately it looks like I won't be able to watch too many of those games anytime in the near future due to issues with TV rights for the two clubs.  But I was able to find a bright spot by catching the Bayern Munich game, and I have to say I was very impressed.  Bayern Munich is a team full of young talent, and savy veterans, and appears from first glance to be the best team in Europe.  I was amazed at how well they past the ball, and the third goal scored by Altintop.  He recieved it not far from half and just breezed by the defenders with relative ease, cooly placing it past the Hanover keeper.  I realize it is too early to tell, but Bayern Munich could probably pull of a treble this season, and it is a shame we won't get a chance to see them in the champs league.

 Sevilla vs Getafe was full of goals, but Getafe was unfortunate to lose their first player to red card, the second red was fully deserved.  There was a scary moment when Puerta of Seville collapsed for no reason, you can read more about it here.   The goals Sevilla scored were well taken, but it was very obvious they were missing Dani Alves, who was not playing because he was sulking because he couldn't move to London.

 Everton vs Blackburn was a snoozefest.  Simba of Blackburn was an interesting player who played his heart out in the middle of Blackburn's defense, and was a menace everytime Blackburn had a free kick.  Interesting news about Everton, Yakubu was denied a work permit because he retired from the ####ian national team.  That is a huge blow for Everton, because it is quite apparent they lack any size in the frontline.

 Manchester United vs Tottenham was an ok game, it was apparent that missed Ronaldo and Rooney's presence(who wouldn't).  But Tottenham gave Nani too much time, and he made them pay with a superb 30 yard strike.

 I planned on doing some fantasy picks, but I think I will just wait till I get bored at work this week.
