Graeme Sourness | Retires from “punditry”
- Thread starter Bubz27
- Start date
Not similar at all. Forest are generally liked.
You'll have to wait at least a decade and a half without Utd winning the league before your parallels kick in. There was a fifty year gap between Chelsea winning titles. Liverpool are more likely to match that than Utd are your three decade period of scorched earth bereftness.
He was Liverpool's first choice on the teamsheet every match. united's Keane came closest as a player. Souness had much more to his game though. Much better player. Best at his position in England in the years he played for Liverpool
Agree with all this. It's quite obvious since the Swansea game the drop in intensity. I think players are being told to keep themselves ticking over and to look after themselves for the final if needed etc. I'd imagine they all go out with words ' don't get injured ' ringing in their ears.
As for what Mourinho says to the press, I actually think he's just trying to look after the players. I don't believe for one second he thinks they're tired and behind closed doors he tells them exactly what he expects come the Ajax game. Everything this last 3/4 weeks has been geared towards that.
Sounds and Redknapp should know better. Souness is pretty much critical of everyone, always comes across as the typical better in my day ex pro.
Whereas Redknapp just tries to be controversial.
The man is a genius, leave him alone! Sure, the other night, when talking about United's fatigue, he introduced a new measurement of time called the "nano-minute." Not sure if Stephen Hawking could get his head around that!
Straw man klaxon
Very well said.
I suppose if there is a parallel it is that at the moment, we're shite. Liverpool may also have been shite back then too. But I don't know, it is before my time.
Pot, Kettle, Black
I see our Graeme has shown himself to be a hypocrite?
As for Redknapp he just has no clue. He's like matchday forum poster.

Is he wrong though ?, Did you ever hear players back then complaining they were tired ?, for UTD could you imagine Roy Keane saying to SAF "i cant play today boss im feeing a bit tired",
Theres really no point moaning about pundits' having digs at us when we make it easy for then with how we play and how we are performing
That's why it doesn't bother me what they say as at the moment they are usually correct and it will be all the sweeter to see them change their tune when we do get back on top

Roy Keane was finished at the top level in his early 30s and retired at 34, he's hardly the best example.
Which players have complained they are tired then?
Arghhh not the Roy Keane thing againnnnnn!
Bugger off.Caf said:
According to your Manager the majority of your squad are and besides that it seems to be an excuse that's used a lot these days, tired ?, these footballers usually join there clubs straight from school, they've never done a hard days work in there lives.
Most Midfielders usually retire about that age.
Or maybe your just being petty and he's calling you Man Utd, like the majority of the country do.
Pretty much. In attitude and outlook they're very similar, though Souness is clearly the better pundit. He's at least able to suppress his gruff, frustrated old school hang ups for the most part (largely through a veneer of disinterest) except when it comes to big games, or ones involving Liverpool, and to a lesser extent United, when the impulse to become an angry codger overwhelms him.
Keane on the other hand, has no filter whatsoever. Which is why he occasionally crops up on ITV or RTE, but isn't trusted with a permanent high profile punditry position, for fear of imploding with rage at the momentary lack of effort shown in an 80th minute thrown in during a goalless dead rubber between West Brom and Sunderland. Or indeed the very debasing indignity of punditry itself, let alone the notion of sitting in a studio for more than an hour with anyone sporting a plausibly trendy haircut.

Actually think he's a decent pundit.
I agree I think he is pretty fair to be honest. He has slated Liverpool many times. If anyone thinks Uniteds performances don't deserve criticisim in some form then they are deluded.
We have simply been not good enough this year. I am convinced he will hand out praise if for example we build upon solid foundation next year and add some actual goals to the game. He has done it in the past. I think he is fairly honest and open.
Nah Mourinho hasn't said that the squad are complaining they're tired.
He's simply complained himself about the fixtures. Despite the big drama it's nothing new. Fergie himself used to do it regularly.
Of course, all Jose is doing is creating a scenario to fit our current situation, as Fergie often did, if the pundits want to let off steam and criticise us about it then let them, hopefully it'll give us an extra edge in the final.
Jose has absolutely slated him.
From MEN:
"Our biggest problem is the number of matches is unbelievable,"Mourinho said "But I know some people like to lie. I think they are paid not to lie, they are paid to be honest and speak from their knowledge to the people that watches TV and reads newspapers, but some of them lie.
Edit: also " It's not my fault if their managerial career was very poor"

That's the sort of shite Trump comes out with.
I don't see Souness saying anything pretty bad in those. Jose will build a strong team with you, but he's showed cowardice in the league, treats your squad like they are Southampton and all to cover his own shortcomings this season. Theres is no excuse for Jose with a half a billion pound squad not to be able to manage 60 odd games.
Jose is spot on. Can't wait to see Souness' reaction.
United win Europa League
Hasn't taken the result well tonight.
What's he said?
Wish roy keane and souness played in the same era so that keane could snap his legs
So much bitterness tonight. Horrible pundit in club football, doesn't even try to hide his biases.
Hollow victory, and that United got lucky. Saying we didn't deserve to win.
Bitter twat.
What did he say and where did he say it?
Suck my cock Soey you daft cnut!
I don't post much but I was thinking of mentioning this. He's gone on for ten minutes
how?
