Didn't people utter the same chap about Bielsa??
As for the rags; I'm sure they'd love to finish 7th (if Palace don't win the cup) then they'll have a chance of being the first team to win 4 European competitions. The celebrations if they won it would be pitiful.

Nah it’s not true. Statistically speaking ralfie is the best godfather. I don’t know how the media get away with the outright lies. Who is going to take care of the caretaker? I really think it’s time United got serious and appointed a proper football coach. Arise sir Rooney of rugtown. ;)

“Evidently, managing United is a challenge at present - but, BBC Sport was told, that is the attraction for someone keen to prove their abilities at the very highest level.”

Seriously? Not sure if that is deluded, spin from the club, BBC bias or utter bullshit.

Think I’ll go for the last one.

He’s the most successful German, interim manager they’ve ever had.

It was worse in 2016 when rashford had just broken on to the scene. Remember, the summer before pep's first season and he had to message sterling to say "I still believe in you". It was the euros that sterling got blamed for everything and Wales knocked us out.

Sterling was to blame for everything in the nation's eyes and rashford would have solved everything. That's without even going into how shite Henderson was that tournament.

It was absolutely scandalous Sterling's abuse at that tournament and I'm not saying Henderson wasn't one of the worst he defo was but...
Kane was by far England's worst player at that tournament he was bone idle lazy, followed into 2nd by Rooney he was also terrible there was no slagging for either player though, they honestly were England's worst players because they negated every England attack, Sterling had the ball at the edge of teams area's running at them offering a genuine threat.
He was being a nuisance but became the scapegoat because he had joined us in my view, same with Hart they needed to slag off players who represented us and Hart he made mistakes it's not as easy or obvious to defend.
What was obvious though is Sterling wasn't bad at all yet everyone lapped it up, frothing at the mouth cos the media told them despite him making good runs into spaces and working hard off the ball, he tried to hold onto the ball with 2 or 3 defender's around him, while dumb and dumber (Kane and Rooney) had barely crossed the halfway line, they offered nowt there was no outlet for Sterling to pass to.

In my view if Vardy and Sturridge had actually played alongside Raheem Sterling equally quick players, then England might've been a very dangerous side up top in that tournament.
