Now that SAF has gone, for me Jose is the best manager on the planet. Young master Rodgers isn't even the best on Merseyside....

TBF, Guardiola came through the system at Barcelona and inherited a cracking team, tweaking it to become the best in Europe hands down. Mourinho went into Inter and Madrid in disarray and got them playing a certain way that countered the best team possibly ever and brought them down from the Gods to get on top of them. That, I believe, will be his legacy: his handling of a rampant Barcelona in their pomp at two different clubs.

ha ha ha... Barca finished a distant 3rd the season before Pep took over. He created that amazing side.

Inter had just won about 3 titles in a row under Mancini, and Madrid had just equalled their record points total the season before Jose got that job!

Hardly dissary!

The TV commentator - forget who - thought a pen would've been harsh. I agreed until I saw it from a different
and closer angle. Clear penalty

The refs will give practically no substantial decisions against Liverpool.

There's been a huge institutional effort to get behind Liverpool's title challenge and there's no way that officials in the game can be immune from the general atmosphere that's been created concerning their 'fate' in winning it this year. It has to have an effect on decision making. I'm not saying they are all bent, they dont need to be. They arrive at some of their decisions by being swept along with the tide of emotion.

As I say, Chelsea yesterday: their two goals had to be walked into the net. You can be sure if there was any kind of challenge involved by way of a 50-50 they'd have stood a good chance of being ruled out.

Mancini also had the two teams above him deducted points and relegated and could hand pick their better players who wanted to stay in europe.

Mancini was a terrible manager. It would have been harder not to win the league with Inter.
