All set for the Champions League Round of 16


I spent today finishing off the Irish Examiner's Champions League preview supplement which is published tomorrow. It was a busy old weekend with features on Wayne Rooney losing his scoring touch, Barcelona's record league run, Internazionale closing in on AC Milan and the Gareth Bale 'will he/won't he' play saga, all having to be rewritten. Great read though including excellent contributions by Ben Lyttleton, Adrian Clarke, Iain Macintosh, David Shonfield and Iain Spragg. Once more a real commitment by the Examiner, at 24 pages, to quality football coverage.

  1. "Wayne Rooney losing his scoring touch"? Is that still appropriate after his wonder-goal on Saturday?

  2. Exactly the point ... that's why we had to rewrite it.
