SUPER TUESDAYS ON SWOOSH0018


FROM THE KOP END
TELL THE TAILOR TO PUT THE SUIT ON HOLD.WE F#4KED UP UNDER PRESSURE

The MANCS stole ,Chelsea Stole and now Everton steal from us. This is not 2 points lost...its three, it feels like a loss. F#4K. Poor marking off a set piece. Im not explaining I leave it to RED 4 LIFE

180th Merseyside Derby
Another 3 points dropped at home. While it wasn't a loss it certainly felt like one. After going ahead through another stunning Gerrard strike LFC failed to capitalise on their lead and Everton pegged them back with a typical Cahill header. It seems that Rafa is at times content to see out 1-0 leads when playing your normal attacking football is always the better option. Its happened before and I have to admit that under Rafa its going to happen again.The return of Torres was the only bonus on the night and after a slow start he started showing signs that he is now(hopefully) over his hamstring troubles. He went on a stunning run from his own half and should have put LFC ahead only for his shot to come off the post.

He should have definetly got a penalty after being brought down by Jagielka.Everton fought back well and got their reward after *&^@%!) careless tackle on Anichebe and Cahill duly scored from the resulting free kick.Rafa must be kicking himself after surrendering the top spot in the table to MUFC on goal difference with a game in hand and with all the teams in the chasing pack winning over the week-end Rafa has to work his magic and turn LFC back on track and start winning once again.Theres still a lot of football to be played and the 08/09 season could well have the most exciting finish to an EPL season with the likes of Chelsea,Arsenal and even Villa all seperated by just 6 points at the top.Looks like this one might take a little longer to wrap up but I'm still confident that this title will end up at Anfield!

10 OF FOOTBALLS GREATEST HARD MEN

10 Claudio Gentile (AS Varese, Juventus, Fiorentina, Piacenze)

No 10: Forget contemporary softies like Materazzi and Cannavaro; this man wrote the book on cynical Italian defending. Pictured above left - unusually grappling with a team-mate (Marco Tardelli in the 1982 World Cup final) and not an opponent - Gentile was as far removed from his genial moniker as could be imagined. Positively feral




9 Norman Hunter (Leeds United, Bristol City, Barnsley)

No 9: Hunter (left) formed an obdurate partnership with Jack Charlton at the heart of the Leeds defence, and is pictured immediately before biting the legs of Southampton's Mike Channon. Hard but fair









Vinnie Jones (Wimbledon, Leeds, Sheffield United, Chelsea, QPR)

No 8: A former hod carrier, Jones (left) brought the balls of the building site onto the football pitch, as Gazza will attest. Still holds the record for the quickest booking, at a hotheaded five seconds. Unhinged









7 Tommy Smith (Liverpool, Swansea City)

The Anfield Iron in his full thunder-thighed glory. 'Tommy doesn't tackle opponents,' quipped Bill Shankly, 'so much as break them down for resale as scrap.' Born and bred within a mile of Anfield, he once handed Jimmy Greaves a hospital menu before a game. Terrifying






6 Dave Mackay (Hearts, Tottenham Hotspur, Derby County, Swindon Town)

No 6: Five foot eight of Scottish steel, when Mackay (left) tackled, opponents reeled as if colliding with a JCB. Billy Bremner's look of sheer panic (right) sums up the fear factor felt by opponents. Unbreakable










5 Roy Keane (Nottingham Forest, Manchester United, Celtic)
No 5: In the lowlight of his career, Keane exacts 'revenge' on Alf-Inge Haaland in 2002. Five years earlier, the pair clashed, with the Irishman suffering cruciate ligament damage. Volatile








4 Ron Harris (Chelsea, Brentford, Aldershot)

No 4: Ron 'Chopper' Harris (left) floors QPR's Stan Bowles in typically agricultural fashion. (In)famous for his tardy tackles, and his treatment of Leeds' Eddie Gray in the 1970 FA Cup final replay. 'People say that David Webb won the Cup for Chelsea, but I think it was 90 per cent me who won the Cup for that tackle on Eddie Gray. He limped for the rest of the game,' Harris said with a smirk. Dirty






3 Billy Bremner (Leeds, Hull City, Doncaster Rovers)
No 3: Despite his small stature, the late Bremner (No 4) was famously described as 10st of barbed wire. Aside from genuine footbaling ability, special moves included ankle-biting tackles, throwing his meagre weight around and ceaselessly agitating opponents. A firebrand

2 Stuart Pearce (Coventry City, Forest, Newcastle United, Manchester City)
No 2: So hard, he tried to run off broken leg. At the age of 37. For good measure, he broke the same limb later on in the same season while at West Ham and still recovered. Dubbed 'Psycho', players of the ilk of Pearce are unlikely to be seen again. Inspirational





1 Graeme Souness (Middlesbrough, Liverpool, Sampdoria, Rangers)
No 1: After ruling England and Europe with an iron fist, the sinewy Souness (right) left his studmark on Scottish football just 37 minutes into his Rangers debut. A crunching tackle on Hibs' George McCluskey (hobbling) sparked a 22-man melee at Easter Road. Souness later admitted that he nobbled the wrong man, blaming boss Walter Smith for the premeditated assault. 'Walter said "you've got to be careful because this player will try to leave a bit on you" so I tried to get my retaliation in first,' a contrite Souness remarked. Brutal and his bite played a huge role in Liverpool’s European Cup halls.

The hardmen of football. Its often a guy that doesnt have the flair of Penaltinho or Kaka, but he has the heart of a lion and he gives 300% on the field. He dies out there. A guy like Roy Keane was the perfect example. I remember when Italy were playing USA in the World Cup. I was watching in the hotel room. When Danielle De Rossi got sent off, Freds phoned me and said We need Gatusso to shore up the hole. And sure enough Gatusso had an exellent World Cup
But more often than not these guys go un-noticed for their dirty work in midfield. Claude Makele proved how Madrid suffered when he went to Chelsea. He did the dogs work in Midfield. Another hard man was Liverpools Steve Macmahon. With regards to Gentile it was said once that if you had to take any man into combat with you it would be Gentile. If I had the coice ironically it would be ROY KEANE. I have avid respect for him. The way he spilled his blood for the course. Thats passion and committment. And he would protect his teammates also.
Another b@#4tard of a man marker was Bertie Vogts. But the midfiled hardmen are a breed on their own. They men you would take into battle with you anytime anywhere.
Salute to the Hardmaen of the game

  2. Yeah and then wake up to the news that Kaka has turned donw City. A great start to the week.

    He's proven his heart is with Milan, turning down a reported 500 000 pounds a week, the guy is a legend to all Rosonerri fans.

    At least sanity has prevailed and we keep our inspiration. I think he learned from Sheva's mistake.

  9. Hey swoosh, after giving you guys 10 point lead you still mess up. Don't worry, next season we will give you guys 20 point lead and see how long it lasts. What's wrong with these liverflops, they don't want to win the league? Or are they just not good enough.

  20. Shakes. Sheva was a flop

    I read yesterday that Sheva spoke to Kaka.

    Sheva scored like 9 goals in 47 games. Of course he will tell Kaka not to go to England

    Its debatable. I think. It boils down to money or passion for your club
