Dammit! I shoulda become a sociologist, the I wouldn'tbe asked to prove my claims :rolleyes:
Bergkamp did some irrepreble damage to his rep whilst wearing the tangerine against England, and whilst was good enough not to need to, every now and then did "buy one" or commit tbm's mentioned dirt, IIRC (which at my age, most likely with alzheimers, we cannot be sure of!)
The scouse peno, well I didn't actually look up from my laptop to see the footage, but the pundits did say they reckoned it was in so was passing that on. Either way it's mute IMO coz u cuda been given a 5 goal headstart and Benitez wuda still conspired against u....
SPEAKING OF SELF-DESTRUCTION...
So the FA are in talks with Francis Lippi Ford Capello (whoever!), man that guy is almost as calpable as McSven for our demise given his treatment of Sir Becks of lion, anyone who watched la liga last yr will attest that Real won inspite of his decisions, which if Ballague is to be believed (hint he is, bar the time just b4 the 04 euros when he claimed Spain had the 2 best wingbacks in world football!) had to be relieved of selection duties behind the scenes far before his official departure from the bernebeau. He consistently forced players into roles not suited to them, in order to play his horrifically negative system...the very one that England have reliably come unstuck when trying to replicate coz our players cannot play in it. I acknowledge the politics at Real make it nearon impossible to suceed in that job UNLESS the players with power (Raul, Guti) perform above and beyond, but the effort he put into destroying the galacticos team shows how far he'll go for his ill-advised (yet repetedly reinforced via success) ideals...
It's genuinely not rocket science, put our best keeper in goal, best 4 defenders in slots that suit them, best 4 midfielders in a row, then get shot of one and replace with 5th best (when Lamps and G don't work), and someone up top with the roon. As a contingency have a few young gifted players with pace on the bench, a proven goalscorer who can hold up a ball then a copious helping of utility players. The team picks itself 99% of the time, it's just the FA pay a manager so much the guy out-thinks himself liek some kinda soccer mike smartz....
