He has made a complete @rse of himself by saying Sunday's performance was the best since he's been at Liverpool, apparently they didn't deserve to be 1-0 down at half time eventhough they'd created one chance, a Torres flicked header which Howard comfortably saved and apart from that nothing else. I'm certain the Arsenal performance was much better and surely the Sunderland one? He doesn't have to go mental but some of the stuff he has been chatting lately's made him look a complete tool.



He's doing a wonderful job, you leave Roy alone

Thing is, Dan, what he said could be seen as completely honest. Other than 15 mins in each half against Arsenal, we've been second best in every game we've played this season. So, as comical as Roy sounds, he's being honest, which is why he should go, because nothing he's brought in has worked, after 15 games or so - and things getting much worse - you have to look at whether things will get any better, because it seems Roy is getting happier with how we're playing, which is frightening.

Fair enough, that's plausible but extremely worrying. If that's the best no wonder it's only been one win and Blackpool came and won at Anfield. Whereas it's been so frustrating for us because, Newcastle game apart, we've dominated every game this season and should've won most. What wasn't true though was when he said you didn't deserve to be one down or that you limited us to an odd chance in the second half, that was just blinkered sh[ii[/ite. Howard hardly had a save to make and any he did were routine anyway. More worrying for you is that he keeps talking about the transfer window and bringing in new players now the new owners are in place, who he'll bring in must be worrying.

That's what he's saying though.

He doesn't have to lambast the players, but he doesn't have to pretend that all is well and starting to come together, because it's plain to see that it isn't.

This press conference could be interesting...

Fergie says Rooney wants to leave!

Well of all the things I thought Fergie would say, that was not one of them.

I just hope he doesn't go to City.

Fergie was told on the 14th August? Anything to do with the hooker he nailed? May want to live abroad due to escape the media over here? This signals the start of us dropping down a tier in my eyes. No doubt he will be world class again once he leaves.

Chelsea
Man City

Arsenal
United
Spurs

Villa
Liverpool
Everton.

Ferguson just won the PR battle there in that press conference, he's turned it all on Rooney by saying 'he wants to leave' rather than communications breaking down etc.

Rooney is now public enemy number 1!

Surprised Fergie's been quite so public such a long time before the January transfer window opens. Unless Rooney completely backs down, which doesnt seem in his character, its going to be a difficult 11 weeks for the player and club.

Straight swap for Kaka?

Nah, Benzema.
