Great come back for us against Chelsea, but they should've had a player sent off very early on so I feel that we were robbed. Very bitter-sweet feeling at the moment.

2nd penalty was soft, but united had at least 1 stonewall turned down in the first half so it balances out i guess lol

Any Chelsea fan complaining about the penalties should refer to the fact that they should've been down to 10 men and keep their mouth shut =P


Cahill got the ball then welbeck runs into his legs. If anything, yellow card and free kick AT WORST as initial contact was outside the box.

But ivanovic got a yellow for a clean tackle so webb didn't know what he was doing throughout the whole game basically. Torres yellow for not having superhuman stopping powers lolz.

There was cover and the ball was going away from goal. But he nicked the ball so.

After watching Liverpool/Spurs today, I've decided that I will instantly change allegiance to any team that can start a forward line with Suarez and Balotelli. In 30 minutes Suarez was flying around bothering the Spurs backline, and managed to blatantly kick Scott Parker in the stomach for no reason just minutes after coming off an 8 game ban. The two of them would easily be the most exciting strike partnership in the world, quality, personality, insanity, the whole package.

Capello resigns as England manager after he is displeased at the FA relieving a racist **** of the national team captaincy. Can't say I'm anything other than delighted.

...Serious? What....He wanted JT as captain, said JT should be captain, FA say no he is UNDER TRIAL he cant be captain without asking/telling Capello of this descion. Capello doesn't like be underminded (look his previous jobs) tells FA to stick it.

England now get a manager who signs any document thrown in front of him according to his tax evaising trial.

Can someone explain what exactly has been happening with the JT case? Is there any truth to Ferdinand's accusation? What exactly did he accuse Terry of saying? If Harry Redknapp accepts, would he have to leave Tottenham?

supposedly, terry said "you fucking black cunt" to AF

here's a video of it: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/video/2011/oct/24/john-terry-anton-ferdinand-video - looks plausible but could also have been something else I guess. but then it's terry, so it was probably true.

and I think with harry he's not gonna go until the end of the season, but I also don't think they'll sign anyone else. so you either get some temporary solution until the end of the season, or you get harry working both jobs for some months.

HAHAHA. He isn't racist, and his trial isn't to convict him of racism, but just that he used a racist slur. If he is guilty the max fine he can get is 2500 pounds. What a conviction. Educate yourself before making stupid comments like this. Innocent until proven guilty and to call a man a racist even though he isn't even on trial for racism is downright pathetic.

Capello resigned cause the FA made a decision on the team without consulting him, the man who RUNS THE TEAM.

Terry's defence is that he was responding to someone who accused him of saying it with "i did not call you a..." and the video is only of the second half of the sentence. The stupid part of the whole thing is that no one on the field heard it, neither did anton HIMSELF. All they have is a lip reader and a convenient snippet of video that somehow has led people to believe he is racist. But a fan 'complained' and suddenly we have a trial with anton jumping on the bandwagon playing victim to something he himself claimed he never heard. Then fans (like the idiot above) and the like calling him a racist etc when he hasn't been found guilty of ANYTHING, he is defending himself after being accused. And its not even a racism charge.

The case is calling on witnesses, not for who heard the incident, just for character witnesses and if anyone thinks JT is a racist doesn't know the Chelsea team or watch anything to do with Chelsea.

The English national side doesn't deserve Harry Redknapp; I really hope he turns it down for his sake.
It's a poisoned chalice, he should stay well away. He should stick with Tottenham until he wins a title.

As for Capello, he clearly doesn't give a shit. He's been taking a huge salary for ages now but obviously doesn't actually care about having a chance at winning with England; because he's quit just before the Euros.
I think he's a brilliant manager and I wouldn't be surprised if he gets another job really fast.
Seems to me that he wanted an excuse to get out of the job. I can't really blame him either.

As for Terry, yes he's an asshole, should never have been captain in the first place. But then I guess it's difficult to name a top English footballer who isn't a dickhead.

Yeah, and when has the requirements for being captain ever included 'don't be a dickhead'. He is the best captain england has, and all his 'replacements' have rap sheets with indiscretions as bad as his. The fact that they stripped him then put him back kinda shows they have no one else.

whether or not someone is a racist cannot be "proven" with one phrase, but if he did call AF a black cunt he would indeed be guilty of racial abuse and deserves to be punished accordingly. That video though, not lookin good. Stripping JT of his England captaincy probably has to do with past controversies as well. His image is tainted whether or not he is guilty. Capell's resignation is unfortunate, I doubt Redknapp can do better.

Terry is an absolute cunt and I hope he never plays for England again. Capello had a shot at the world cup and he failed, hardly see his England team tearing up the Euros either, I think this was an easy way out for him. Hiddink or Reknapp would both be good choices, both scummy tax dodgers as well, suits England nicely.

Louis van Gaal ?

Since he still has the wishes to be a coach of a top national team (like England) and with the recent verdict of Ajax I can see van Gaal saying yes if the FA asked him.

I hope not for England's sake but I can see him coaching there.

David moyes think about it! Has no real access to the transfer market, like a national manager. Heads up a sub par squad (england), and grinds out performences season after season.

It's a million to one shot but it just might work!

I don't get the whole "next manager has to be English" idea, but whatever. I'm not English so maybe it's some weird thing I don't understand. Apparently Mourinho wants the job too, lol.

This is what I don't get, why would any manager of such stature to command six million a year want to ruin their reputation by being associated to our national teams constant failures? It's not something that can really be fixed because we simply don't have the systems in place to produce enough young talent to compete with europe or south america.

LOL that's a hilarious picture

English manager can communicate better to the players and get them motivated, he will have more heart since it's his own country, he has grown up with English football and knows it better than any foreigner, he understands the media and is a gentleman. Some shit like that.

Great article about the whole "next manager has to be English" thing: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/feb/09/england-managers-fabio-capello. In reality, the next manager in line simply has to be very different from the previous one to get hired!
