    little rich for an everton fan to give stick about fans swallowing managers ****e when david "the peoples club" moyes is currently managing your shower tbh.

    re: Rafas rant, all he is doing is playing the game as Alex & Jose have done in the past-i'm delighted about it.

    I was surprised at Rafa's comments.

    He hasn't been the type to raise to the bait before and let's not forget Mourinho put Fergie in the ha'penny place trying to wind Rafa up during CL campaigns.
    He usually replied with just a wry smile and an obscure quote.

    But ya know what, I love it! About time someone shut the whingebag up.

    do i believe what?

    i believe it all except one line.

    but the important thing is wat the statement means, it means he aint afraid of Mr Ferguson, and its great to see. it also means utd & chelsea players and staff are gonna be under a microscope for the game on Sunday

    I see it as strange though in that he didnt really answer the original question, and that he chose to use the opportunity to bash Fergussen instead with a prepared attack. The big news this weekend is supposed to be the Man Utd-Chelsea game but now this will be all the headlines. If Liverpool don't beat Stoke then everyone will say "see what Rafa's done".

    This has the potential to make or break Liverpool. Of course their fans will see this as a battle cry and haters will see it as a Keegan type melt down.

    Time will tell.

    That article would almost make sense apart from the fact the foundation it is built on is false.
    . It is not taking any bait from Ferguson and signs of losing the plot, as Ferguson hasn't said anything for Rafa to react to. How can he take the bait if there isn't any there?

    Wasn't the "bait" Fergie questioning Liverpool ability to handle the pressure in the home stretch. Wasn't it a question directly relating to this "bait" that Rafa responded to.

    Media hacks indeed.

    But Rafa has never been in this position, much like Keegan all those years ago.

    Not in the PL but remember he's won La Liga twice so should know a thing or two about the pressure of challenging for titles. Different leagues/countries but the pressure would be similar.

    No way man, any shower of idiots could lead a Primera team to a Liga title, it's an inferior league with inferior opposition. It is nothing in comparison to NFL Europa : Soccer Edition with the impossibly skilled teams such as Blackburn and Bolton....

    Absoulutely amazing stuff here. People on both sides are saying that a statement by a Manager in January is going to decide the League.

    I didn't realise that the top professional footballers in the Premier League were so brittle that if it seems that someone got one up on their manager that it was the end of the League campagin.

    Why is there a thread for this when there is a liverpool thread there to discuss about the latest liverpool news??? The only extra liverpool threads there should be are for matches surely. Sorry for the rant but it's annoying going on two threads disccussing the exact same topic!
