itt liverpool not winning things; sandbox i love football

Welbeck and Rooney should first choice. They'll have to be by necessity now but i've been saying it all along. Ashley Young needs a kick up the arse

That was a one-sided as a game can be where the dominant team rarely looks like scoring

As a measure of how shit Villa were, Carrick was spotted on the edge of their box a couple of times

has mccleish ever been as good at 'organising' his teams as the tv folk say? cos his birmingham and villa teams have been fucking shite.

birmingham were v well organised for a good while, scotland and rangers likewise, but like trap he's not fit for managing decent teams with decent players- and i might be being harsh on scotland and rangers there

His main talent seems to be for hitting the ground running - I think at all his clubs he's started well then faded sharply after about 12/18 months. He left Scotland before the rot set in. At Villa this seems to have happened early.

are you implying that ireland are the best trapp has ever managed or worst, i can't tell?

Balotelli fans won't want to miss his goal today

Inter-Udinese was fun. sendings off, saved penalties, one of the worst missed penalties I've ever seen, and Udinese win away. Fun.

Everybody loves a bad missed penalty, what happened?
