tots - A couple of managers have looked at him at Chelsea now and clearly haven't felt confident to use him in anything meaningful, even when Drogba was out injured, has he even started a game? If you don't impress in training you don't get picked, or is it poor attitude to moan instead of fight for your place. Either way I don't like it, its got expensive flop written all over it.
 
Just read that Villarreal's new coach has died after 24 hours in the job.
He was only 54. Poor sod.
 
I think there is so much stress being a manager it is a wonder this doesn't happen more often. I remember it happening during a game to the late great Jock Stein, and many of them seem to be on the point of exploding at times.

They've had a ludicrous amount of poor luck in the last year - losing Giuseppe Rossi for a large chunk of the season, then he picks up a new injury when he returns to training that rules him out until at least next January, with relegation and Champions league humiliation thrown into the mix. And now this.

advice them to stay on the training pitch.

Tell the Dutch players to stop whining, given the amount of anti-Semitic abuse heard at Eredivisie games?

It does come across like the British press want this tournament to fail - so I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out a dozen Sun journalists in Poland shirts were the ones making the monkey chants...

The Dutch FA appear to be trying not to rock the boat by not complaining. Lets hope this is a one off and the last we hear of such abuse.
 
Steve Bruce has been appointed at Hull. That's quite a fall from grace, isn't it?

Someone should warn O'Neill because Keane and now Bruce have virtually fallen off the map since leaving.
 
He must've booked a trip to either Prague or Moscow this summer...or the Czechs were unable to muster anything that would lead to a contentious decision.

I feared for the game when I saw Clattenberg was involved as well...

maybe i wasnt paying attention....i just felt as though he let play continue alot insted of blowing for everthing..i found that refreshing.
 
if Rodgers wants to take the Swansea team with him,then why did he leave?

Even if he wants them, he can't take any of them for 12 months. http://www.talksport.co.uk/sports-n...s-can’t-take-any-swansea-stars-liverpool-1734

The exception is Siggurdsson, only on loan last season and yet to complete his transfer to Swansea. Personally, I wouldn't mind taking Joe Allen - perhaps in exchange for Gio, who is never going to get a run of games with us, no matter how brilliantly he plays for Mexico. http://youtu.be/TL42Iw70Bl8
