It'll be Arbeloa marking Robben.

Yeah. Retaliation is never a red card. Oh, except in most cases. Gerrard and Ronaldo seem to get away with it. Delap and SWP, no dice!L-r d wrote:He is responding to kicks with kicks in most cases. Not an issue.

He gets the worst treatment in world football. In the stoke game it was crazy, they guy fouled him 5 times and it still was no free kick.

“Manchester United make €65m a year more than we do and buy three £20m players a season,” said Rafa. “Chelsea must have spent £500m in five years. We have built a team but economically we are way below them and yet we have still managed to compete. In the five years I have been here I have spent less than £40m on Torres and Keane. How are we supposed to compete with them?”

This is hilarious from Rafa - he's turning into Wenger, constantly finding excuses before he's even failed.
Man U do not buy 3 20 million pound players a season. That plain and simply is not true.

United bought 3 players this year and spend how much? £58m?

They spent about the same last season on Nani, Anderson and Hargreaves.

maybe I need to read it again, could you point out the part where Rafa pleads poverty.
My interpretation was that he thinks Liverpool can't compete financially.

Really? Clearly some people do.
Philipp Deglenn wrote:so you problem isn't with Rafa's statement, it's with him getting his maths wrong.
Fair enough, he should have been more vague with his guestimations. Saying £20m instead of £18m hardly makes him a liar.
I don't know how he has understated his own spending, Torres cost just over £20m Keane cost just less than £20m. The result is less than £40m.
There's no self glorifying bullshit from me, I don't start threads about how great Rafa is, or asking who is currently the best Spanish manager in the EPL. I'm just responding to criticism giving another side of the story.
I don't know if Wanger got into any trouble for his repeated comments at the end of last season alleging a refereeing conspiracy prevented Arsenal winning the title. Why would I? You're the one who spends his evenings weeping into a faded curling photograph of the man.

Eboue only got a yellow card for his retaliation too...
But no, it's clearly only Man U that ever get preferential treatment from referees.

You're not denying they should have both got straight reds then.
The thing that gets me is I can understand mistakes being made in the heat of the game by a referee. But the Ronaldo kicks at Dawson and wilkinson were reviewed later on and nothing has happened. Wright-Phillips kick gets a three match ban. It indefensible.
