Well that draw could have worked out better


terje439 - it doesn't matter what I do and don't want - we'll probably lose in a penalty shoot out anyway.... it would be rude not to (unless of course we get spanked by the Germans first .

IMO, he's a bitter old man who I always thought was a bit of a **** with double standards (don't all managers) and seemed to spend half his life acting like a spoilt child and the other half generally being unpleasant. Of course, I could be wrong. But I'm not.


Having said that, I haven't really read what his actual comments were, something about Henderson running a bit weird? In any case, he's just trying to (succeeding in) annoy the Scousers. If he was half the manager everyone says he is then he'd have been able to actually win the Champions League more than he did and actually build a midfield. He was still using Ryan Giggs in the first team, and he's older than the aeroplanes I work on!

Again, this is my opinion: Rafa Benitez is a far better manager than Red Nose was. I'd even say Arsene Wenger is, I don't think Fergie could have kept Man Utd competitive given the same restraints Arsenal have been under for the past few years.

He IS however bitter and grumpy, and always has been imo. I also feel that he had a tendency to whine a lot, and almost expect that his team should be treated differently than the rest by the FA.
I agree however that Wenger is a better manager, imo the best in PL. Rafa....well, his main downfall imo is his inability to make the correct purchases, and to build on what he had, so he ranks below Ferguson with me.

Performances of one or two players is still a concern, but Erik Lamela looked like a decent player for the first time this season which is good.

Well done too to Jermain Defoe on beating Martin Chivers European goalscoring record for the Spurs.

No, I am not going to the arena to watch the match. I have several reasons for this but it mostly boils down to that I am to old and grumpy. So I rather watch it on TV.

Nothing to be sorry about. Football is dumb game anyway.

And they seem to have a hard time scoring goals as well.

Maybe they need some new players during the winter transfer? A completely new starting line and a new coach?

A new coach might not arrive until January but the old one got the boot today.

..that was it. So with Defoe leaving before the end of the season, is that really a good idea?
