"by mutual consent"...
We have, but it is clear that he was not ready for this big of a challenge. Thinking that Poulsen and Konchesky would bring something to the squad are two examples of this. Playing defensive football in a smaller club might be his arena, but going out like that with a club that should run over smaller clubs is clearly not the right strategy. Dont know if Kenny is the answers to the problems, but at least it can´t get any worse!
Good riddance
this does not look good for Liverpool... No manager, no new manager, bad leadership, players on their way out...
So, he has feelings after all;) good to know!
YAY, Maxi! I watched the game yesterday, and I think the Argentinian team looks pretty strong... It has to be said that they played against Canada, but still... Its super strange - and Milito also commented this in an interview today - that Canbiasso and Zanetti aren't part of the squad, but hey, you never know... Maybe Maradona is right. As I remember, Canbiasso never really played all that well for the Argentinian team. A player that looks hungry, though, is Tevez. Can't remember la...
I agree. Strange that Del Bosque allows it, there is no doubt that it affects the players concentration.
Goodbye Aurelio. To bad with the injuries... The goal against Chelsea in CL will never be forgotten!
I like this too!
Agreed. Benayoun, however, is a player Liverpool should try and keep, but I think he wants more first team football. From Benitez' side, Yossi was always considered a squad player. Mascherano is an important player for Liverpool and Benitez should do everything in his power to make him stay... But with an unhappy wife (who can blame her, with the climate of Barcelone and the likes looming in the horizon) I think it might be difficult to keep Mascherano. If the transfersaga begins again th...
Somehow I think this will be the first of many off-field news about Maradone during this WC... It will be interesting to follow, I do not think the pressure of a WC is something he can cope with as a manager.
Yes, they have an interesting attacking lineup. Argentinas problem, however, is that they have no defensive strength...
I'm really glad this story is from dailymail;) I don't think Gerrard will leave this season, he is set to be a Liverpool legend (allthough he already is). However, I think that if he does a kickass WC, it might be difficult to keep him!
Love the headline-trick, Bjornar;) scorching hot!
Ronaldo vs Fabregas, who is the better player? Do you think Fabregas is worth the same as Ronaldo?
On the field these two players are rocket-scientists. Something I think they both can thank Sir Alex for... I think both of these players would have been unruly or primadonnas if they had been raised under another manager. Just see what has happened with Ronaldo after he left - we all knew he had it in him, but under Ferguson he kept it in check. ("it" equals being a spoilt brat primadonna;)) Rooney looked like he was the new Gazza, but after a few years under Ferguson, he is a supe...
Lucas for Melo - that's an idea;)
I like the approach Barca has taken here. Shows respect for Arsenal, and for footballplayers in general. With that being said, I don't think Barca needs to do anything more... Barca knows, Arsenal knows, and Fabregas knows - Cesc will end up in Barcelona at some point no matter what happends
Agreed. Its strange for me that it is possible for big clubs like Man Utd and Liverpool to get problems like this. ITs sad for football that owners now need to be multi billionaires with bottomless pockets to be able to float a club.
Another defensive midfielder in Liverpool...? I think Mascherano and Lucas is enough! Keep Aquilani for another season, I'm sure he'll come through!
The problem with Hodgson is that he was not hired by the new owners. I agree that you should give a manager more than half a year, but I think the new owners - and the players - weren´t happy with the situation and had to do something. About the players, I agree that those you mention should get out, but not only those mentioned. I might be kicking the beehive, but unhappy players like Torres, underachievers like Kuyt, and perhaps the whole stem of the team (Gerrard, Carragher) should be...
