You shut your goddamn mouth.

Giggs is the perfect replacement, given his experience in handling difficult affairs.

Like DeGaffer I thought Moyes needed time perhaps at least 1 seasons with a 2nd season based on results but as the months have gone by this year he has looked increasing out of his depth/comfort zone and that doesn't change the fact that the team have been quite awful. I did have a laugh with some Man U fans at work how they tried to rip off "The Special One" name that was given to Jose by trying to call Moyes "The Chosen One" which has kind of backfired

I really wonder who the hell is going to want to take on the Man U job as well, it is both going to be amazing and a nightmare at the same time.

I would say at least 50% of the blame lies with Woodward to be fair (and Alex Ferguson I suppose)

 

[Scouse]

...and the prima donna players who didn't turn out for Moyes, en masse.

Anyway - I a little birdie told me that the reason that Moyes got the sack is that season ticket renewals are not being taken up in anything like the numbers they were in previous seasons.

Plastic fans deserting the sinking ship maybe?

 

[Embattle]

..probably going to become Liverpool fans for a season

[megadave]

what is this line up

 

[caLLous]

A very defensive one. I think we can see how Chelsea are approaching this game.

 

[Embattle]

I don't think there was any doubt!

 

[Scouse]

A very defensive one. I think we can see how Chelsea are gonna play under Maureen, forever.

So no fun to watch for anyone other than Chelski fans...

 

[Scouse]

Apparently Hazard trained. I wouldn't put it past Maureen to not play him today so he's definitely fit for LFC at the weekend. He'd love to stop us winning the league

 

[Embattle]

Fuck Cech out, even more ironic considering one of our goal keepers is at the other end of the pitch.

 

[Embattle]

Apparently Hazard trained. I wouldn't put it past Maureen to not play him today so he's definitely fit for LFC at the weekend. He'd love to stop us winning the league

I don't think so. I also think even if he cares about who wins the PL this season he would favour Liverpool.

 

[caLLous]

Well this is boring as shit.

Yes, that must be the reason he was let go...

Fucking hell

 

[caLLous]

To be fair it might've been a "protest with your wallet" type thing from legitimate long-term fans. I wouldn't have thought that plastics would account for a huge proportion of season ticket sales anyway but they might do I guess.

 

[Embattle]

Nooo Terry as well as Cech...we are falling apart.

 

[Lethul]

This has got to be one of the most disgusting fotballing performances i've ever seen, i hope they add 15 minutes of extra time.

 

[Embattle]

Lampard and Mikel out of return leg as well.

 

[Himse]

I'm not sad about this set up, bring them to the Bridge and play the real game!

 

[Vladamir]

We have the worst strikers out of all 4 teams in the semi's, and probably out of all 8 teams that were in the quarter finals, so why bang your head against the brick wall of a defence that's shipped the least goals in Spain & Europe away from home? Jose got it spot on, also saw very little to suggest Costa is worth 40 million.

 

[Olgaline]

Well that was as boring as expected

 

[Billargh]

19th century football.

 

[Scouse]

Well that was as boring as expected

Didn't bother watching.

Not gonna watch Sunday's match either. Going mountain biking in Wales instead. If we scrape through with a draw I'll be happy. If they spawn a goal (which is what Maureen plays for most weeks) then at least I'll be up a mountain having a lot more fun with more to look at

 

[Raven]

Watched about 15 minutes, got bored and turned it off.

 

[Embattle]

Well with the injuries we are picking up I say the game is even more favourable for Liverpool now.

 

[Raven]

Jebus, 31% possession, 5 shots. Did Chelsea just stick 11 men in their own box or something? Do all the panels fall off Maureen's car when he parks it after his rant about that sort of football earlier in the season?

[Billargh]

But it's totally different and acceptable when Marueen does it cause he's a TACTICAL GENIUS™.

Just like throwing on 3 strikers when you need a goal; TACTICAL GENIUS™.
