Ok so here's my last post on Mourinho as I am mindful of Kiers being right and him being a troll.....
On Daglish...yes he was wrong on the Suarez affair as were the whole club but it was one mistake in a distinguished career so I still think on balance I can stand over my comments on him.
On the Cech affair....it is great that a review was done and made things safer for players. The issue I have is that Mourinho did not ask for a review in a measured altruistic fashion, he lied about how long the ambulance service took to arrive. That to me is unforgivable. Also let's not forget he accused Hunt of doing it intentionally. That is a huge call to make. He can not know what was in his mind but went ahead anyway and accused him of intentionally going out to hurt his player.
On Mourinho in general....when Real lose to Barca its a UEFA conspiracy, Chelsea lose to Sunderland its the Premier league and/or PGMOL.
When West Ham (or Spurs first time round) defend its parking the bus. When he does it its a tactical masterclass.
I just think on balance he has done more to damage the game than to enhance it in general. This is not an anti-Chelsea thing. I liked Ancellotti for example. It's just anti-Jose, and I used to like him. I did think he was entertaining (at least off the pitch) to start with. But for me that day has long passed.
And with that I'm out.

I like Jose - a character as they say. Only thing at this stage - people are too use to his tricks in winding people up. They are getting a little sick of him. It is getting a but the like the boy who cried wolf.
On - Pool, jaysus lads, would you not give them one year of a free ride where, the fans don't get stick and they can give abuse to United for just one year.
I mean , was 24 years not enough on top.
Be a bit charitable.
We need a 9-0 versus palace.
Old Football was rubbish.

Hey StevieOB gives is a wave!!!!!!
Wave.... there should be an emotion for that
As soon as Torres played the ball into Dembaba (I don't even know if it was Dembaba, was it Dembaba?) I switched off the tele, didn't even see the ball go in the net.
I had already been on the edge of my seat all afternoon and I think I was standing at that point so my legs just carried me straight out to the garden. Well I got loads done, weeding, cleaned down the patio, fixed the satellite cable for the kids TV, fixed the outside light, watered & fed the plants, looked tenderly after all my shrubs that I'm growing. 4, maybe 5 hours out there, had a lovely afternoon. :rolleyes:
Lucy asked me "are you happy dad?" she got a short sharp "NO". "Did the Reds win Dad?" again short and sweet "NO". My Da came over and sat in the kitchen at one point calling out to me "Did Munster Win Seve?" (That's what he calls me, Seve ) "DON'T KNOW, DON'T CARE" was all he got back. I heard Lucy talking to him asking if it was the reds, and telling him that no, the reds lost and the blues won! He kept going on at her was she sure.... jeez, she is only 4, give her a break Da 
.... I was not interested in putting him straight..... and I think he knew it!
I had enough of it, I was nearly on the verge of ringing sky and telling them I don't want their poxy sports channels anymore......So after I finished in the garden, I spent the evening watching a movie (The Lone Ranger) and general crap on the tele........ anything but sports. So I have no idea what has been said by anyone in relation to yesterdays match cause I haven't even had the radio on today, I just went into hibernation.
So here's my take on it. It was like when Butch Cavendish ripped out Dan Reids heart and ate it (Please refer to my viewing of The Lone Ranger). I don't mind loosing a football match, but when you have been the only team trying to play football, the only team creating chances, controlled the match in it's entirety, probably had 70% possession mainly in the opponents half, your rock solid stalwart slips and gifts an undeserved goal, it is quite simply GUTWRENCHING. We were immense.
Now credit where it's due, Chelsea played the game well. They went to Anfield with one thing in mind, close up their defence and if they get lucky enough to hit us on the break then they would. 10/10, well played Chelsea. Game well played that is, but not well played football. However, it's balls in the back of the net what counts and they did the bizzo.
Chelsea only got the second goal because we were pushing hard up the pitch. I think if it had of been 0-0 at that stage, we would not have been pushing as hard and would not have leaked the second goal. I think Liverpool wanted the win badly, but if you asked them beforehand, they would have snatched a 0-0 draw.
Now, IMO, Liverpool will win their last 2 games and loose the league on goal difference.
So for the next 5 days I'm going to stroll the far side of Stanley park and become an Everton Fan, come on the Toffees.......pleeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee0 -

Stevie liverpools first shot on target was after 60min and it was a speculative long range effort.
The only team controlling anything yesterday was Chelsea. Cruise control too.
You are spot on. Chelsea played the game superbly, I already praised them for it. Liverpool found them tough to break down and get in position to score.
You can't argue with the fact that Liverpool were the far superior team on the day though. Unfortunately though it is all pie in the Sky when you don't get the goals!

Unfortunately I don't think 9-0 will be enough.
If memory serves, was that in the cup? we then lost to them towards the end of the season and lost the title on goal difference scored with Michael Thomas scoring with the last kick of the season 0 -

Were they superior though?
Think about it. They were not threatening at all. Chelsea looked extremely comfortable and Liverpool could not change their game plan. They got so frustrated they started to lump balls long into the box from very early on.
The dog in the street knew Chelsea would set up like that. They do it in all the big games. They are solid. It's essential you score first against that tactic in order to draw them out. Sakho had a glorious chance early on and ballooned it over the bar.
Also just looking at the goal again where gerrard slipped. Why was gerrard receiving the ball as the last man only 10 yards or so inside his own half... Where were the covering centre halfs and why were they ahead of him reviewing the ball?
I'd expect gerrard to pick up passes like that of course but how did it end up the cover was ahead of him?0 -
