Awesome. This story is a perfect example of what is so great about football AND Russians - conspiracies galore! That said, "everyone at the ground" could mean a couple of hurt players and a few backroom staff, if it was a day off. And the quotes from Mourinho in the story are from right after the Man U game - I wonder if he actually had anything to say about the "investigation," or even knew it was happening.
I hate him more than almost anyone...
LOL. My god, does he actually expect to win every single game? Will he break John Terry's legs if they don't?
I guess this helps explain Mourinho's dossier on Wenger quotes too.
LOL. My god, does he actually expect to win every single game? Will he break John Terry's legs if they don't? As long as its after the world cup break away. I hate Mr. Roman too but at least he is pouring money into his club unlike a certain American.
Thanks for your first post jennifer. Whatever your opinion, both Mourinho and Abramovich have shaken up the EPL. whether this is a good or bad thing only history will judge. However the major worry is really if all the TV money over the last 10 years and now the Russian millions is sustainable. Most EPL clubs run huge deficits and are technically broke. The next TV rights package will be interesting.
Whoops - That was meant to be thanks for jennifer's first post on soccer. Good to have another round ball person on SpoFi.
Hear, hear! Welcome, jennifer!
