They Say:
"I think about the Africans and I believe this will be one of the most important World Cups for the African teams. I believe one of these countries will get to the last four. I saw the Ivory Coast play against Germany and they are a very strong team." England gaffer Fabio Capello doesn't fear the group of death but expects African teams to fair well at next summer's World Cup. Don't tell FIFA! They only want the big teams doing well.
"I am free to shake whose hand I want. I had no professional courtesy to shake his hand. I've nothing more to say on that," Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is unapologetic for refusing to shake Mark Hughes' hand after Manchester City dumped his fledgling side out of the Carling Cup. Lucky Arsene didn't own the ball or he may have picked it up and gone home after Shaun Wright-Phillips made it 2-0. Maybe he saw Sparky taking a pee earlier without washing his hands???
"I’m sure I won’t win. I might even come dead last. I will probably have to vote for myself if I want to get a vote," Jose Mourinho reckons he won't be crowned Serie A's best manager because he is unappreciated and also said if he's sacked at Inter it's not a problem, he'll get a new job in a week: "I read that my replacements have already been found, but it's no problem for me. If I get sacked I will be back in work within a week."
"He is a coach, a father figure, a man who jokes, smiles and knows how to forge a wonderful relationship. Mourinho is special," Marco Matterazzi appreciates the Special One. He likes Jose's smile. Hmmmm!?!
"Elton John is my favourite singer. The match will be an opportunity to meet Elton John," Chelsea gaffer Carlo Ancelotti is looking forward to facing Watford in the FA Cup next month.
Ray Wilkins says Carlo is something of a joker: "As a bloke, he's a really funny guy, always joke telling. I have to translate, unfortunately, if he wants to crack into something quite humorous."
"Everyone is asking what is and what isn't fair play. The highest crime in football is touching the ball with the hands. It's possible we will make additional officials for the World Cup but we have to see if it is feasible or realistic. Something has to be done in terms of match control," Sepp Blatter finally recognises that match officials need more help and also told the world of Ireland's confidential plea to be a 33rd team at the World Cup. This is getting out of hand, Ireland need to get over it. If they feel that badly there's always voodoo!
It appears Sepp took it out of context and the FAI are unimpressed. Sepp has just made the whole thing worse for the Irish by opening his mouth and with a microphone in his hand he's like an embarrassing drunk uncle at a wedding. Ireland coach and Gunners legend Liam Brady thinks Sepp Blatter is an embarrassment to the games governing body.
"I think the man is a bit of a loose cannon and embarrassment to FIFA."
The whole fiasco is embarrassing Liam, let's draw a line, build a bridge, have a drink, whatever. Get over it!
Luciano Moggi says Calciopoli was a conspiracy. Great! Another one.
"What is Calciopoli? Calciopoli is just errors made by referees. Errors that have always existed. The truth is that Calciopoli never existed," says Moggi. Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy were seen on the grassy knoll.
"As a child I would pray to God and tell him that 'If you make me become a Serie A footballer, I will one day become a missionary'. Nicola Legrottaglie of Juventus reveals how he became a professional footballer. So bribery in Italian football goes right to the top!!!
Maybe the Irish could promise world peace if the big man upstairs allows them into the World Cup!
We Say:
"instead of grinning and shrugging it off with a typical football manager's cliche ("that's football" or "it wasn't our night"), or a shaft of dry wit - of which he is eminently capable - he stormed off to sulk in his own self-delusion," Goal.com UK's resident Arsenal expert, Tim Collings was less than impressed with Arsenal Whinger, Arsene Wenger storming off after the league Cup defeat to Manchester City without shaking Sparky's hand.
"Only the true lovers of Nigerian football see the deep pitfall we are headed for with this moronic call for the sustenance and perpetuation of the talentless Mr. Amodu." Awenlimobor Sylvester believes it's time to get rid of Amodu Shuaibu in the interests of Nigerian football.
Neil Jones thinks Liverpool & Rafa Benitez's luck is in. The Yanks are selling??? No, no, steady on. They beat Everton.
"But if the Spaniard has had just cause to bemoan his side's ill-fortune - their injury crisis, dubious red cards, beach-ball interventions - he can surely have no issue with Lady Luck this afternoon."
"Scolari arguably never had it. In many ways their approaches differ, but just like Jose Mourinho before him, now it is Ancelotti's turn to enjoy the Midas touch," Alex Dimond reckons Carlo Ancelotti's influence at Stamford Bridge may be on par with Jose Mourinho's.
You Say:
'Ireland need to get over it. They're not the first team to have been cheated out and they won't be the last." Michael in Canada has hit the nail on the head.
"Sepp Blatter is complete slime." Mr. Mister, Somewhere.
"Get Ready for Switzerland (Blatter) vs France (Platini) World Cup final!" Ugly Truth lays claim to a real ugly truth. I'm off to promote carbon footprints. Global warming can stop this travesty!
"I think Mr Blatter missed out on high school. He must be making up for it now by playing to class clown and trying to be part of the popular group," Brian in T&T has his own take on the matter.
" "quote of the day: "Losing to Barcelona was bad for Italian football? Yes, but not as bad as losing to Bordeaux away or Zurich at home," LOL " Erste the Interista, digs Jose's humour.
"Get him off the team immediately, clearly he needs help," Frank in Canada doesn't agree with Legrottaglie's promise to God.
"that's amazing to hear that even after all these years he still vows to keep his promise. You should model on the side too, how gorgeous are u???" Footballan in US, must have mistaken Goal.com for some other website. Cosmopolitan maybe? Woman's Weekly?
"Hallelejiah praise the lord he says." Steve in Milan is back with a gem.
"Liam Brady you're an embarrassment because you're crying like a 5 year old child. CAN YOU JUST MOVE ON!?" Abdullah in Dubai is right. The reaction has been child like.
