The Fergie time jibe comes from occasions where there isn't a clear reason why there should be so much time.

Despite Wengers intimations of Scholes' dark side he has never maimed someone like that scouse thug Carragher.  |
Which is kind of lucky. His tackles are no better, often worse, than Carragher's last week. Also getting the ball first doesn't mean much if the tackle is dangerous. There was no need for those tackles today, we were losing 2 - 0, down to 10 men, and not long to go. Why on earth go in like that? It was absurd.
