Wrong on both counts. As I said, I knew Liverpool's style would be one that would allow them to take control of the game, and logic dictates that we'd win based on that. However, I just had a feeling something like this would happen.Originally Posted by Doomie
Had a great game tonight, didn't he? ...after Mascherano came off, that is.KAKA IS BETTER.Apology accepted. Please try harder when we meet again in 2009.Also, as for the DOMINATING of the game by Liverpool...I'm sorry.Yeah, somewhat. Also replacing Mascherano instead of Alonso for Crouch was costly.I think Liverpool lost because of the following reasons:
No Peter Crouch.
I don't think they used Riise well enough. I think he is their second biggest asset, after Gerrard.
Revenge is a powerful motivator.
...dunno about this Riise thing though. Or Gerrard. Would rather we lost Gerrard than Carragher.I...I...what? Now this is just silly. You do realise that Liverpool have a better record in games without Gerrard than we do with, right?I firmly believe that Liverpool would crumble down without Gerrard. The same wouldn't happen if Kaka left. Or any other player. Liverpool places too much on that one player. If he's out, their whole team falls apart. I think Milan shares the workload much better, and that's why I think they one.Rafa's ideal formation is two holding midfielders in the centre, and two pure widemen on the flanks. Stevie is neither. Sure, he can perform those roles, but he isn't a specialist, as it were. But he simply cannot be dropped.
I restarted my Fifa 2007 season again with Milan, without Oddo, of course. Now, for the first eight or so games, I found it strangely difficult. I was 6-1-1, but it was eerily hard. I then decided to sub out Inzaghi (Mostly because he's ugly), and decided to use Kaka as a supporting midfielder. I then crushed Lazio 5-0 on Veteran. Thus, Kaka is great.
So wut, on fifa 2003 I beat France 10-1 with Man City in world class difficulty, and injured Thierry Henry in the process. We're still.
FIFA has no editing function? Well that makes it fail even harder.
Beckham's back in the England squad. So instead of dropping the 'undroppable' players that are holding the team back, we've gone and brought one of them back. Hooray for progress!
"The most important and recognize player in the history of the country."
Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.
lol
Well the press all demanded he be dropped to start with, and McLaren meekly complied. Now the press have suffered a case of amnesia from their previous view and all want him back - so he's back! Good to see the manager is the one picking the team and not the media...
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
England will never evolve under McClaran. He is a mediocre manager who was chosen because the FA paniced when the big boys backed out. This Beckham saga has proved his weakness. When the press hated him, he dropped him & treated him like dirt. Now the press say he should be back...look what happened.
England national side is outta his depth. Despite being Irish & therefore duty-bound to hate the English national side, I like to see United players do well internationally & I can't see that happening under him.
Ireland are having a similar problem with Staunton.
The guy is a joke. He claimed today that he can be the next Jack Charlton. I hope to see it backfire & see him get as far away from the managerial scene as soon as possible.
Great work John Delaney!

It's weird that McClaren has started listening to people, even if it is the (idiot) media. In his 5 years at Boro, he ignored just about everyone (with the exception of his guru, Bill Beswick). Everyone else knew that Mendieta was no right winger. John Barnes could skin him for speed! McClaren just pursued his own agenda.
I think the guy is an utter idiot, but I'd rather have him managing the national side than messing with Boro.

Beckham is one of the greatest English players ever. He is a legend in England, or rather, he was. Everything went downhill after he left Man U. But he's been such a big part of the England's World Cup, that they can't just drop him. He's like Maldini. Maldini gave up his spot allow another younger player. Lippi never would have left him off the squad. Although Maldini is still greater than Beckham in my books, Beckham is also pretty damn good.
Welcome back, Derby. Re-sign Wanchope!
A while back, Liverpool signed Lucas Leiva for around £8m, a signing which I am very excited about. Not only is his name very similar to everyone's favourite moderator, but he is also captain of Brazil's under-21 team. He also won the Golden Ball in Brazil's league. That's the award for best player, if you didn't know. Previous recipients include Kaka and Tevez, or if you want to go further back, Romario and Zico. Apparently he is a Michael Essien/Steven Gerrard type of player, so I think he will adapt well to the Premiership. He's going straight into my fantasy football team next season! I bet he'll be dirt cheap.
