What Could We Have Possibly Learned From Man City vs. Monaco?

Waking up this morning to work out any takeaways from the first leg of Manchester City’s clash with Monaco is like piecing together a night of heavy drinking. It was a night of degeneracy — mistakes were made, people were throwing themselves headfirst at objects and someone pulled out their Willy (Caballero).

As we move toward the second leg at the Stade Louis II in Monaco on March 15, the most obvious talking point will be City’s defense of their two-goal advantage. So what’s Pep Guardiola’s plan?

Atletico Madrid vs. Bayer Leverkusen Was Beautifully Chaotic

Although it was overshadowed by the 5-3 lunacy that took place in Manchester, Bayer Leverkusen and Atletico Madrid played their own fantastically hilarious game of soccer in Germany Tuesday.

Atletico prevailed 4-2 on goals from Saul Niguez, Antoine Griezmann, Kevin Gameiro and Fernando Torres, but they easily could have had eight or nine. Griezmann probably should have had a hat trick in the first half but was denied by Bernd Leno twice.

Roy Keane Has Some Trash Opinions About Brotherhood

Tomorrow brothers Paul and Florentine Pogba will meet on the pitch in the Euopa League for the second time in less than a week, Paul for Manchester United and Florentin for St. Etienne. Hopefuly they won't do something so rash as to say hi to each other like they did last Thursday, incurring the ire of Ireland and Manchester United's foremost curmudgeon, Roy Keane.

Here's what Keane said on ITV after the match:

Conan O'Brien Meets Giovani Dos Santos To Show Him The Ways Of "El Gato"

I'm going to be honest, I haven't watched Conan O'Brien in ages, although Late Night with Conan O'Brien was a staple of my younger years. If there's one thing that Conan does better than any other host, it's getting outside the studio and messing with people. 

Is Mario Balotelli Running Out Of Chances At Nice?

Mario Balotelli just might be having his most Mario Balotelli season ever for Ligue 1 club Nice. The Italian striker has an excellent 11 goals in 19 appearances, and also a not-so-excellent eight yellow cards and three sending-offs (one of which was later rescinded) in that same period. 

His latest red, for dissent, came on Saturday against Lorient.
