English Premier League 2011/2012

* all worth shouting about in any of those Suarez tackles.

 

Love how suarez acts like he injured himself .

 

LFC played great tonnight, finally got the result a number of performances this year has deserved.

 

Yes, Suarez is a *, and Terry, Ivanovic are all wonderful human beings who wouldn't possibly hurt anyone!
Not like Ivanovic elbowed Carroll, and Terry definitely didn't tug everything in the box, nor did he call Ferdinand a racist remark.

Just got back from it, have to say I'm glad Terry's not the England captain, whiny, little * he is. But fantastic 'pool performance, Carroll showing his worth, absolutely bossed everyone. Shelvey also particularly impressive. Like a good, fast, tackle-able Charlie Adam.

 

Bitty late now though .

Use need a new manager and a clear out.

 

Reckon Kenny will go this summer. Henry seems rather unsure in pledging support for him. As for the clearout, Maxi, Kuyt, Aurelio are all going unfortunately. Fantastic few players, them. Saying that, the first two may decide to stay if we get a new manager.

 

yeah I know sadly lol. What i'm saying is though the performances honestly haven't been as bad as the results make it look. I think only 5 or 6 games this season we've really deserved to lose. Loads of others we've played well and came away with * all, like at home to Arsenal, away to Stoke.. even tonight we won 4-1 and STILL hit the woodwork twice!

We can't possibly be as unlucky next season. Get Lucas and Gerrard fit for hopefully a full season, bring in quality left mid, right mid and another good striker as back up, and we're not far off a good team.

Kenny should stay for at least another year.

 

I would keep Maxi, been good every time he's played this season. Kuyt I think is just a bit too old now sadly. Been a great servant but probably time to go.
I wonder if we'll keep Cole and or Aquilani when they come back from their loans, dunno how they've got on at all.

 

I'd keep maxi he's been good when he's played.

From what I've seen Liverpool lack a bit of spark with dull performances and are really dodgy at the back the qpr game perfect example and there is a few more. They only ever raised their game when it was a cup game or a game against the big 4 for some reason. He's used alot of money and failed miserably. Ano use have had some bad luck but you need to put the ball in the net at the end of the day.

Gerrard for me looks like his best days are finished he's know picking up more injuries and not able to put them big performances in as much now.

 

Haha GIRFUY Chelsea

 

Albion have spoken to former Chelsea manager Claudio Ranieri as they prepare to step up their search for Roy Hodgson’s successor.

Baggies sporting and technical director Dan Ashworth met the 60-year-old Italian last week as he begins assessing potential candidates to replace Hodgson.

But the club’s hierarchy have yet to meet to firm up a shortlist for the head coach’s role, meaning an appointment is not thought to be imminent.

Ranieri, who has been out of work since leaving Inter Milan in March, has signaled a desire to return to the Premier League, where he spent three and a half years as Chelsea manager from September 2000.

And he met with Ashworth after his agent contacted Albion last week following the news Hodgson will leave at the season to take over as England boss.

However, despite hoping to appoint a new head coach by the end of May, the Baggies remain at an early stage in the recruitment process and seem likely to speak to other potential candidates before narrowing down the search.

Chris Hughton, whose future as Birmingham manager could become clearer after the second leg of his side’s Championship play-off semi-final against Blackpool at St Andrew’s tomorrow, is likely to emerge as a serious contender.

The former Newcastle chief impressed the Hawthorns hierarchy when he was interviewed for the post before Hodgson’s appointment 15 months ago.

And he has further enhanced his CV this season by leading Blues into the top six against a backdrop of financial turmoil and despite the loss of most of his squad last summer.

Hughton’s Birmingham future looks set to be the subject of speculation regardless of the outcome of his side’s play-off challenge, but defeat tomorrow night will increase the prospects of his departure this summer.

Former Charlton manager Alan Curbishley is also a potential candidate along with Hodgson’s former assistant Michael Appleton.

But it is the emergence of Ranieri as a possible contender that will most intrigue Baggies fans as his interest signals the club’s ability to tempt high-profile candidates.

He has managed almost 800 senior matches in a career that has included spells in Italy with Cagliari, Napoli, Fiorentina, Parma, Juventus, Roma and Inter and in Spain with Valencia and Atletico Madrid.

 

He started off well during his managerial career but the last few clubs he's went to he has failed and made them worse boring football under him as well.

 

Stale Solbakken allegedly being interviewed for Wolves vacancy today. Former FC Copenhagen manager, got his jotters from Koln in April.

 

Swansea manager Brendan Rodgers is to spend four days shadowing Spain’s coaching staff ahead of Euro 2012

 

Brendan Rogers is the epitomy of an ambitious, learning manager.

Absolutely * love him.

 

Howard Webb is the referee for Man Utd vs Sunderland on Sunday, Man Utd could still win the league on goal difference then

 

I don't want Maxi to go either to be honest, but he's already tweeted his goodbye to Liverpool so it seems quite set in stone now. I love Kuyt though, I want him to stay. Sucky thing is, just know we'll get rid of those two, and spend * loads on an average player.

 

Ståle Solbakken is the new Wolves manager.

 

Might stick a wee tenner on a Howard Webb hat-trick

 

I feel sorry for Terry Connor. Not only due to the fact that he looked like he was going to burst into tears at any second when giving interviews, but he really was thrown in at the deep end this season. No prior managerial experience, battling to keep a club in the EPL and being heavily scrutinized by the media in the process.

Nice to hear they found someone though.
