Media Manages England

Liverpool's Spanish manager Benitez takes a swipe at the English regarding their obsesssion with the 'next' manager:

"We would wait until after a competition to talk about such things. But to talk now so many months ahead of a competition shows no respect for the current manager...You must think about the team and winning the World Cup. If you talk about the position before the event it is not the best thing for the team." (BBC 07.02.2006)

We. The Spanish. Not like 'you' the English.

Bravo Rafa.

While the English were busy bashing Swedish manager Eriksson for his 'indiscretions', the English Media were pulling the puppet strings. Pitty. Through the media, and elements like the Fake Sheik, the English are now in the process of shooting themselves in the foot. The only thing that will possibly save their WC fantasies is that Sven is drinking whiskey and walking with a swagger. Watch out Brazil...for the angry Swede.
