Advantages: Dogging!
Disadvantages: Dogging!

...…… An away goal early on should tie this one up for Liverpool if they play that way. Sit back away and go a goal down and the world is a very different place. I still think Liverpool are the better team by far here and should make the last 8.Gerrald is the man for me to score that goal with one of those stunning half volleys. If they can win this trophy and secure forth spot then Houlier can survive. Without silverware the five year plan looks beached. Just as a place in the champions league is his incentive to keep pushing it’s also a carrot to attract another big manager. If the Mick’s can jemmy Ferguson out of Old Trafford and get O’Neil in then maybe the genial Irishman will except second best at Liverpool. NEWCASTLE (1) 3 VALARENGA (1) 0……4-1 win agg…… Live SKY 7-45pm. After a scrappy under... Read review

Advantages: sound
Disadvantages: fifa 2005 based

....Computer based football simulation games...Uefa champions league 2004-2005 hit the stores.So what?Who needs another football simulation when fifa and evolution pro are already there?Well the point is that EA sports is trying to get some more attention after Evo pro dominated in the battle for the best football game.They just released another fifa based game with some minor changes(the name of the game).Lets see what have they done there. The first thing that really impressed me was the soundtrack.Yeah...bonobo , LCD soundsystem , Swayzak etc.Its the first ever soundtrack for a football game that didnt include mainstream looking guys like Tiesto.I really liked that so i proceded to the start new game thing hoping to be impressed there too. The main part of this "another EA game" is the season mode.You are able to create your manager (face... Read review

Advantages: feel in control
Disadvantages: blocky on close ups

...champions league is a realistic challenger to the fifa crown but is not trying to beat fifa at its own game because its set its stall out for sheer playability. The ball dont stick to your feet and you can play a telling pass into space for players to run on to. and you really feel in control of the games so I can play my trademark kick and rush and bring success. Fifa are you listening, your boys took a hell of a beating, winston churchill maggie thatcher... this is good but by no means the finished article.... Read review

Advantages: Added Spice to the Premiership Season
Disadvantages: Potentially time consuming

...For the last three or four years I have been doing a fantasy football team for the premiership season. Originally I started doing it in the newspaper, but now I use the internetbased site www.fantasyleague.com. I have tried other online leagues which are less expensive or free, but I still think this is the best value for money. Fantasy League used to do (may even still do) the fantasy football section in the Times and/or the Telegraph and now have a whole suite of fantasy games online. The basic fantasy football game is the "Classic" game on the site. There is also "Pro" and "Champions League" versions, but I will come back to that later. At this point I would also like to say that there are also some non-football games available including Formula 1 and Golf. During Euro 2004 and Wimbledon they did special games too. Anyway...

Advantages: The best teams in Europe are brought together in one tournament, great standard of football played, always exciting and there are often one or two shocks
Disadvantages: Tottenham don't play in the tournament

...-Introduction- The UEFA Champions League is Europe's premier cup competition and has been so ever since its creation in the 1992/93 season. It replaced the European Cup, a tournament with such a rich history behind it. The change is said to have taken place, in order to modernise the tournament and the inclusion of a group phase was welcomed. The Champions League is very topical at present and I have thought it necessary to give a bit of background on the tournament, a look at the players and teams over the past 13 seasons and also to look at where it may go in the future. -Competition Format- In its short existence, the actual Champions League format has undergone numerous changes. The tournament has always included Europe's elite teams, in the first season only 8 teams took part compared with the 32 teams that began... Read review

Advantages: Graphics are great, its a bargain at £9.99 and you cna play with past winners
Disadvantages: Old players and referees tend to be biased towards the computer

...The UEFA Champions league 98/99 season. What a great season it was as well Manchester United beating Bayern Munich 2-1 in the dying seconds of the game. This game begins you at the start of that historic season. This opinion will not generate many reads because once again it is on an old game. I brought this game when it first came, because I had previously played a demo of it and I actually thought it was a really good game. The first thing which was great about this game was that when you load it up it has the champions league music and the video like they show on the TV which
