What did Essien say? The Headline could have been "Essien in Madrid Squard to face Man U"

Go back and read what you wrote. No body is 100% perfect.
In any case, I think the odds favor Real.

Right. LOL....Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones!
But why would you think the odds favour Real? Man U has the away goal and they are playing at home....... maybe you mean you HOPE Real win, but if you are talking about odds, it looks like they are slightly in Man U's favour.
The Stallion 12 years ago

Yes, but Man U has a bad defence at this time. That's why. Apart from that too, in Europe, playing away from home doesn't count too much of a setback.

Finally, I favored Madrid because I support Arsenal -- who also have the worse defence!

I think in this case, your "no body" should have been nobody instead. In any case you are justified, none is perfect.

Mike, cheers for picking up on the mistake by The Stallion. I feel better now.
However, since I started this whole "Grammar" thing, may I also point out that you should have said "no one" rather than "none"!!

Wrong man, none in with reference to both sentences.

Then you should have specified. And "neither" would have been a more appropriate word......plus this last sentence you wrote does not make sense "none in with reference" did you mean none IS in reference?

After a long brake from action due to injuries and, a last minute transfer to Madrid,it's reasonable and simple common sense for the GFA to give Essien a brake from National duties to justify his inclusion at where his stomach is . So who's that morons labeling Essien as unpatriotic and asshole . If you've no common sense,please don't force Urself to make a contribution simply b'cos you've a computer.
