Cable Forum - Football Talk 2006/2007 Season

Gutted. A great manager with sweet FA as far as money and support from the board. How he managed to keep Fulham up for three years is beyond me anyway... :erm:

Also, (from a girly point of view) the only bit of manager eye candy in the league IMO. :drool:

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season

well as people know i'm not a fan of CDS but he still failed to deal with two shots and spilled them, both of them two easily could have fallen back to another Roma player and been a different result, and when we needed world class save he couldn't do it and just watched the ball go in the net

at another point the ball went right through the 6 yard box and he was just running along the goal line.. he doesn't command his 6 yard box like a top goalkeeper should

roll on next season when we have Foster back

Looks like the tapping up has worked, how the dare moan about the behaviour of Real Madrid and Barcelona is beyond me

Because they didn't tap him up, they declared an interst in signing the player which they have persued unlike Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Despite his club saying they didn't want to sell, pursuit should of ended there, much like Carrick last year, what are you saying its one rule for your team and another for everyone else seeing as unsettling a player seems to be a legitimate tactic of yours when it comes to buying players

Ronaldo hasn't said he wants to join Barcelona or Real Madrid anytime soon, yes he did in the summer, but now he doesn't want to leave and i think thats why United are annoyed by them unsettling the player.

Real Madrid said they were intersted in Ronaldo, he said he doesn't want to join Real Madrid, but they continue to try and buy him. Theres a difference there, United are angry because Ronlado doesn't want to leave but Madrid continue to pursue him. United continue to pursue Hargreaves because he wants to join them which was the same for Carrick, i see nothing wrong with doing this. If a player wants to leave in my opinion they should be allowed to.

Can't you see that Ronaldo staying is in the best interests of the Premiership?

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season

Sure its hypocritical but thats football. Managers complain when they get a dodgy goal scored against them even if their team scored a dodgy goal in the same game.

Tapping up goes on. Always has done, always will do.
Do you think West Ham made four bids for Upson without knowing if the player wanted to play for them or not?
