He is a good manager, no doubt about that but I wouldn't like having him as a friend.
BTW, I didn't watch the match but Southampton had 3 penalty claims that weren't given, two of them were clearer to me than the Chelsea one.
I'm gutted that none of the British teams are doing well in Europe...... I have no idea why, I still think the PL is the best league.....
What do you mean that none of the British teams are doing well in Europe?
You know who I support so how do you analyse this situation as not doing well in Europe?
CL this season: won one and lost one. The loss being away to a good team with an amazing home record.
And then this for the longer term non knee jerk view:

How far did any British team go last season or the season before that?
Not so long ago the British teams used to get to the later stages, semis and finals with frequency.
You give yourself too much importance.... actually I have no idea who you are let alone who you support and I don't mean to be disrespectful.
I can only guess by your reply that you are a Chelsea sopporter![]()
He was known for using his elbows, I believe. But in Fergie's era the game was full of hard men who pushed the rules to the greater limits that were allowed back then.I hate football managers; they chew gum and scowl and try to look hard. A former professional Scottish player tole me that during his brief career as a footballer Alex Ferguson had a bad reputation as a dirty player.
