Sam Allardyce would probably make us play 4-5-1 and we'd play long balls up to Kevin Davies or Peter Crouch all day long. *shudder*

And indeed, but I guess differences are what make life interesting.

As for Ireland 3-0 Sweden, a great start for Steve Staunton (and as an ex-Red, I'm happy for him) and for Robbie Keane's captaincy. He's used a young squad, with the likes of Steven Ireland and that Spurs guy whose name I have forgotten...damnit...Stephen Kelly? I think that's his name, and the future looks good for them. And Sweden losing is good news for us in the World Cup!
