That Stuart Brennan article is brilliant and on point for me so the players have a disagreement so what shit happens as they say, Name one professional team sport where the players don't argue and clear the air when they feel it is necessary, I just think in this day and age we love drama and have to over complicate and analyze everything negatively.
Just look at Madrid Ronaldo moans at every fucker and it doesn't seam to affect him or Madrid, I mean what do we want our players to be all smiles and act like everything is all good in the hood? As Stuart Brennan says as soon as the argument came to an end it was more then likely forgotten about.

Sounds right to me I guess someone in your house disagreed then?
Duncan Mackenzie used to tell an anecdote about the time he played for Leeds against Liverpool. He was partnering Allan Clarke and they were up against Tommy Smith and Emlyn Hughes. It was well known that Smith hated Clarke and had made it known before the game that he was out for retribution for some incident the previous time they'd played against each other. But the way they were set up meant that Smith was marking Mackenzie, Hughes marking Clarke. Smith spent the first 20 mins of the game snarling at Clarke, telling him what he planned to do should Clarke come within range of him. Then Clarke and Hughes went up for a header, Clarke caught Hughes full on in in the face breaking his nose and a few teeth, blood everywhere. Whilst the game was stopped for Hughes to be patched up, Smith wandered over to Mackenzie, a huge grin on his face, "He's not such a bad lad that Clarkie".
It turned out that the only player Smith hated more than Clark was Emlyn Hughes. This was an ongoing intense dislike, not just a flair up during the heat of a game after conceding a bad goal. But it didnt stop them from winning plenty of medals together.

Great article by Stuart Brennan .......................... but I think I summed the whole thing up in a much more succinct way when I said:
Dressing room arguments happen, if they didn't I would be seriously worried about the team.
Just saying, now retiring to my corner again. :-)

Just THAT tackle by Smith on Clarke in the 1974 Charity Shield says it all. If it was after the above incident then Smith has a short memory ! see below at 0:09

Re: Dressing Room Unrest?
On top of that Merlin speaks different Spanish than the Americanos del Sur, who speak.... well Portuguese, Argie and chilean (which are almost Spanish, sort of) and the Balkans lads have some Balkan languages. And Zabba's English is better than the Leeds lad and so on.
Fleet St fucking knob heads can't get it right.
Eds said:From what I have heard Zaba speaks Spanish to Sergio but Yaya speaks French with Nasri. Surely that is the cause of any unrest, I mean how the fuck does Fernando feel if he only speaks Portuguese and Ferny who speaks English and Russian but not French. Milner feels left out which is why he is leaving as his Spanish isn't as good as Merlin's and Joe can barely speak English. Come on the Mirror keep up with the real story
