Steve Claridge

Lasted 36 days as manager of Millwall (relieved of his duties before the season started) also managed Weymouth....The man knows what he is on about.....!

Only just put it on, am I to believe he had something of a rant?

It was more like a noise.

Apparently we got battered off Wolves in the 1st half and Mancini wasted Dzeko by playing him on the left. Motson fought the blue corner, saying that he was highly impressed with Dzeko and that he could be the difference in our title push. Then Claridge whined that we ought to be second in the league when we'd 'spent five hundred million'.

Odd that none of the ''Sky 4'' came in for him, seeing as he knows so much about tactics!
 
Claridge hasnt got a clue about football he thought kieron dyer was at newcastle last season, and he was sh*te at EVERY level
 
Claridge's comments regarding Avram Grant earlier were disgraceful and potentially libelous. I was thinking of registering a complaint with the BBC.
 
This is the Steve Claridge who once stated, "DeJong is not a PL standard footballer".

Thank goodness for intelligent pundits like Pat Nevin, Matt Jackson, Michael Gray and Robbie Savage. The likes of Perry Groves and Steve Claridge lacked football intelligence, that's why they spent so much time in the lower leagues.
 
Dzeko could play on the left. He put some quality crosses in and beat the full back with ease. Dzeko can play anywhere. Quality player hes too good.

I agree totally, I dont mind intelligent comment even if it criticises us, I cant stand "idiotic ranting"
