Well Isn't This Statement Obvious
Ah the humble Premiership manager, I have been known to sit for hours and watch - hey quit it with the baseball!
Between Ashes coverage, there have been a lot of happenings about. Most of them are common knowledge by this point like Peter Crouch signing with Liverpool (I think they have now assured themselves fourth) and Andriy Shevchenko (who I didn't know spoke that much English or Italian) nearly pulled a P.J. Carlisimo on his coach at AC Milan but instead just told him to "play me or sell me" in front of dozens of TV cameras. Then denied he wants to leave AC Milan.
This second story actually had Chelsea, fresh from the kill, chasing another bunny rabbit to slaughter - though AC Milan has big bear teeth to defend Shevchenko.
That furry moment aside, Chelsea was on the verge of opening up channels of communication to AC Milan stating, "we want another trophy for the bench er wall, can we have Sheva dirt cheap - like 60 million pounds or so?"
AC Milan turned down the offer stating their star player was not for sale at any price.
One good thing came out of the whole deal, the Ukrainian sung Elvis Costello:
But as is well known, most teams and players have a price when Chelsea comes a-knockin'. And Chelsea, with the name your price attitude always responds to a high ball first offer with, "we'll take it!"
Meanwhile as managers are bound to say the darndest things, Jose Mourinho had an "I'm shocked, shocked there's gambling going on here in my casino" moment stating that "the English market is crazy."
Thank you Mr. Obvious. Or should I say Mr. Obviosoihnho. And how exactly did the Premiership market get that way? Let's see. Perhaps it was you saying to your owner, "I want that player and I don't care about the cost."
Surely an early choice for the "Stupidest Quote By A Manager" award for Premiership season 2005/6. Of course this award is nearly bound to go to Jose. I put up a poll on Big Soccer of which manager in the Premiership would say the most stupid things this year. Mourinho is leading with 20 votes out of 25 voters.
Much more exciting than cricket. Jose should have his own sport devoted to him. :) Or he could just have Roman Abramovich buy him a sport and rename it Mourinho.
