Never mind Italy and Uruguay; beware of Costa Rica. They are the team who were no hopers after reaching the world cup finals in Italy, 1990. They began by beating the mighty Scotland, then went on to lose narrowly to Brazil, before victory over Sweden took them to the next stage.

Deary me! There are going to be a lot of murmurings in Trafford Towers. I haven't seen the match but it's looking like Moyes has lost the team.



The team has been pretty mundane for years, and Moyes has to work with that. Old rednose was a very good manager and got the best out of them. The team need to stand up and be counted and start playing for their new boss.
It's only 15 games in and anyone who calls for Moyes head is being a bit dense imo.

What a really weird season this is, and Palace win bring on Chelsea! Chamakh was doing a pretty good impression of Berkampeske lay offs

He said they are in a "Transitional period", big mistake, they have been through several "transitional periods" since the early 1990's, it didn't stop them winning titles till he pitched up. What transition anyway? What important players did last seasons runaway champions lose in the close season?

He did a great job at Everton, so good that that they should have been doing better in his final years (if that makes sense), he is a saftety first merchant, a "keep it tight" guy, a "margins" man, risk averse. He is totally the wrong man for OT, proven by splashing £27.5 on a leaden footed lump, a break up man. But long may he stay there, for he is providing much merriment for a lot of people.

Long may this Transitional period continue.I hate seeing the same team win it season after season like Liverpool did in the 1980's.
