*Official* English Football Season 2009-2010

International Coach
Cheers for the Cup ref :) Vidic should've gone. No doubt. Love his explanation at the end though 'The ref saw i got goalside so wasnt a red'. Yes I could've got goalside too by swinging off the back of the guys shirt. Valencia was ace today, Berbatov damn good too, and brilliant header by Rooney (about all he did). Carrick was ****ing woeful though

I have Park down as my man of the match, personally. Really good performance from him, and so close to a goal to mark it off, too. Berbatov next best.

Haha it's pretty hypocritical considering how painful Liverpool have been to watch this season. Funny though.

BBC Sport - Football - Reds boss Rafael Benitez mocks Blackburn's style

:laugh:

Onya Rafa, not usually one of his fans, but anyone putting the boot into big Sam deserves some plaudits. Particulary in the way that he has done it on this occasion. Massive heh @ him saying "we do our talking on the pitch" though, irony not lost here.

Missing the point. Rafa does not initiate any of these exchanges. His response was to Allardyce's about the way Liverpool have been playing. If you knew the bull**** Big Sam kicked up for Rafa about hand gestures last year, you'd understand Rafa's response.

Haha yeah, but even so, it's comical to be criticising teams for dire football when your first choice centre-mid combination is Lucas and Mascherano.

Yes quite. Am well aware of the Rafa hand gestures last year. Not sure why anyone got so worked up about those. Still doesn't detract from the fact that what he said he is entirely hypocritiacal, if someone what amusing.

You don't have to be Barca to criticise Blackburn. The point is who are they to critique us?

Maybe Liverpool are just that dire.

I think it's fair to say one team is performing at or above expectation this year, while the other has gone markedly backwards.
When you have half your squad out for chunks of the year, that's expected. Big Sam made that statement to antagonise, he got one back. It's as simple as that.
