I really hope he stays, if he does go I hope he is a man of his word, and quits playing football

To be honest you're better off without him, where will it end? Adam Johnson not getting out of bed for less than £300k a week? Your club is rich but not stupid... yet.

So Barcelona have sold out and taken money from a Qater company for shirt sponsorship?

Another draw for Chelsea...

OK I dropped the idea of going to the bar.

This is devestating, just as we was doing so well.

Hold him to his contract and see how he enjoys playing in the reserves! I bet Fergie is laughing his argyll socks off!

the qatar company is a not for profit organisation and unicef will remain on their shirt.

Expect a lot of stories like that one, it's what happens when the only motive a player has is money.

 

I agree. Players like that are nothing more than mercenaries. I have no respect for them whatsoever.:dozey:

Well you have to look at how Tevez had no team to stay with, and no real focus on where to go, so Man City came along with a lot of money and he had no reason not to go. But his attitude is clearly shit, getting subbed in over-time when the game is effectively over does not warrant any kind of reaction, nevermind the way he shouted at Man City infront of the fans and players, truely terrible.

 

Or look at Kaka who never wanted to go to Madrid but Milan looked at the transfer fee and couldn't refuse the money, so I do respect Kaka because he never wanted to go despite the huge increase in wages, but he didn't have much of a choice as Milan chose money over him.

 

For the majority of players who've moved to City or Madrid, yes indeed, can't have much respect for them.

I agree. His behaviour was disgraceful, as was Balotelli's.;)

 

Blackburn Rovers sack manager Sam Allardyce

 

Blackburn have announced they have sacked manager Sam Allardyce.

 

Allardyce, 56, was relieved of his duties along with his assistant Neil McDonald by the club's new owners, the Venky's Group from India.

overs have lost three of their last five games, including a 2-1 defeat by his former club Bolton on Sunday.

 

"I am very shocked and disappointed to be leaving Blackburn," said Allardyce in a statement released through the League Managers' Association. "I am extremely proud to have managed this club and I enjoyed a fantastic relationship with the players, my staff and the supporters during my time in charge. I now wish them and the football club every success for the future."

 

Rovers are currently 13th in the Premier League, five points above the relegation zone. The club announced that the first-team coach Steve Kean will take temporary charge of the club. Former Bolton and Newcastle manager Allardyce joined Blackburn in December 2008 and guided the Lancashire club to a respectable 10th place in the Premier League last season.

 

The club made a steady start to the current campaign, taking 18 points from 14 games to leave them 11th in the Premier League at the end of November. But a run of poor form, including a 7-1 defeat by Manchester United at Old Trafford, has seen them slide closer to the relegation zone.

 

Former Blackburn midfielder Robbie Savage said he was "shocked" to learn of Allardyce's sacking. "I know the chairman John Williams well but it's obviously the owners who have made this decision," the former Wales international told BBC Radio 5 live. "Big Sam has a big ego and maybe they clashed.

He was doing such a "good job" and playing some lovely freeflowing pass and move football. I thought he'd be there forever. Gutted :(

No! This is a ploy. He's been 'sacked' but he is in fact just about to take over the reigns at one of either Inter or Real Madrid. It seems those two clubs have given into temptation! Now - Rafa or Jose? Which one's getting the heave to make way for this quite brilliant, revolutionary manager?!

They should get rid of whoever has uspet Tévez at City. There is no price for this guy, he is imense.

There is no confirmation whom is angry with, but I am sure its Marwood and Garry Cooke.. they can be replaced.

Tévez can not !

Big game tonight

 

United (Ian) vs. Arsenal (Me)

 

COME ON YOU MUSTARDS! :P

So happy he's gone. I can stop hoping he has a heart attack now.

And United are ahead

 

I think it's a shame to have sacked Allardyce, he's a great manager

Rooney! :facepalm:

^The chip?

Bye Bye Sam

 

Whom would have guessed he would be the 2nd to go ahead of Chelsea & West Ham?

Big game tonight

Man Utd defeat Arsenal to go top

 

Ji-Sung Park's first-half effort handed Manchester United a hard-fought victory over Arsenal and saw them leapfrog their title rivals into top spot.

 

The South Korean improvised superbly to direct Nani's deflected cross over the reach of keeper Wojciech Szczesny.

 

Wayne Rooney wasted a chance to double the lead when he blazed his penalty over after Gael Clichy had handled.

 

Arsenal's best efforts fell to Marouane Chamakh, who missed with a header and had a shot blocked by Nemanja Vidic.

 

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger would have been disappointed by the paucity of chances created, although United counterpart Sir Alex Ferguson is unlikely to be eulogising about his side's performance.

 

Up until the opening goal the first half could be best described as high octane but slightly rudderless.

But they still lost 4-0 to West Ham though :P

that game was not fun for an arsenal fan like me :(

I concur, Ian has bested me again :dead:

(and that fucking korean!!! :angry:)

Please dont go !

^^ You keep saying Manchester City is a big team. Well, big teams don't cry over players. Players come and go, yet the team is always there. If a good player left you find another one. Nobody is irreplaceable.

 

And why was mc_squared banned? Actually, I have a pretty good idea (:rolleyes:), but I'd like to know it for a fact.
