Expand Aye I always thought it was funny how commentators would jump on phrases like "hes proved his doubters wrong again" about Luis Suarez as if anyone ever really thought he wasn't a world class footballer and that peoples issues tended to be the racism and biting people. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand that's exactly my point. loads of people were adamant he wasn't good enough in the summer when we were linked with him, which surprised me because he's obviously a very good player, despite being about as likeable as craig bellamy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4718 Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 I think at Everton his cuntishness was the main/only thing people saw and it probably got in the way of judging him as a player, I think he's shone for Brazil as he's been able to just play.

Craig 7349 Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Reading an article on the BBC about Scotland's 1986 World Cup campaign. Never occurred to me before that the Scots were due to have 2 club managers turn out for them in that tournament - Souness (appointed Rangers manager in April 1986) and Dalglish (appointed Liverpool manager in 1985). Sadly Dalglish wasn't fit and had to withdraw. Also the notion of Alex Ferguson managing Kenny Dalglish seems odd. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly Dalglish wasn't fit and had to withdraw. Also the notion of Alex Ferguson managing Kenny Dalglish seems odd. Expand Widely rumoured that Dalglish took the huff because Fergie left Hansen out of the squad. Hansen had a habit of pulling out of squads under Jock Stein, on one occasion walking off the training pitch with barely a word and going back to Liverpool for treatment on some “injury”… Stein wouldn’t have taken him and Fergie followed suit, David Narey went instead. Hansen only got 27 caps whilst he was undoubtedly one of the best defenders in Europe for a decade. Reading between the lines I reckon he just didn’t have the passion for it, and tbf he’s never really complained. Ferguson was always going to pick Miller and McLeish his Aberdeen boys anyway. Souness was Fergie’s skipper and he’s very complimentary about GS in his first book. Scotland needed to beat Uraguay to go through but despite playing against 10 men for 85 mins drew nil nil 😞 Edited December 6, 2022 by PaddockLad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
