Re: Trouble for Owen?

What is it with the childish comments,accusations and pathetic behaviour of footballs leaders at the moment..Really pathetic behaviour on a par with the overkeen dads who get banned from the sidelines for bad behaviour.

What happened to the silent hard men of football like Matt Busby,Bobby Charlton?The managers who could take defeat on the chin and move on,not whinge about cr@p refereeing and hard tackling.

Bunch of wimps running football these days... :(

Re: Trouble for Owen?

Meh... It depends on what is being said. Football has some real comedians in it, and the banter is hysterical. The likes of Harry Redknapp, Venables, the (sadly late) Clough, etc. Mouriniho is turning out like that. Its a bit better than just: "Well played / Thanx, you too"

Some of Harry's quotes

Quote:

"Even when they had Moore, Hurst and Peters, West Ham's average finish was about 17th. It just shows how crap the other 8 of us were"

"Samassi Abou don't speak the English too good"

"Hartson's got more previous than Jack the Ripper"

"By the look of him he must have headed a lot of balls" - Harry Redknapp about the lovely Iain Dowie

Re: Trouble for Owen?

Some of Strachan's quotes are great as well...

Quote:

Southampton manager Gordon Strachan on Wayne Rooney
Its an incredible rise to stardom. At 17 you're more likely to get a
call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Eriksson.

Reporter: "Gordon, can we have a quick word please?"
Strachan: "Velocity" [walks off]

Reporter: Gordon, you must be delighted with that result?
Strachan: You're spot on! You can read me like a book.

Strachan: I've got more important things to think about. I've got a
yogurt to finish by today, the expiry date is today. That can be my
priority rather than Agustin Delgado.

Reporter: So, Gordon, in what areas do you think Middlesbrough were
better than you today?
Strachan: What areas? Mainly that big green one out there....

Reporter: Bang, there goes your unbeaten run. Can you take it?
Strachan: No, I'm just going to crumble like a wreck. I'll go home,
become an alcoholic and maybe! jump of a bridge. Umm, I think I can
take it, yeah.

pretty much all round

Particularly during his pie-eating phase a while back. Virtually spherical at one point.

Owen - great striker, lousy team player, poor ball control, excellent shot, surprisingly good in the air for his height, not going to make it into the top ten British players of all time (unlike Rooney, if he stays out of prison, who's a nailed on certainty for it).

Carlos Alberto - hardly someone who knows nothing about football, or Michael Owen (he must have watched the Brazil-England WC2002 game, after all). Wind up merchant I reckon, and we've fallen for it. Someone whose side have let in ten goals in two games without reply might be a bit tetchy.
