Kasper and the Invisibles

Kasper the friendly Ghost

Just ask the Mancs what they think of Schmeicel and they will tell you today that they'd rather not have met the latest reincarnation of the Great Dane

Working with the rock that is Micah Richards, Sven Goran Eriksson gave the rest of the league a taste of hard working defense - Manchester City style.
Micah was solid at the back, leading by example and doing all the hard things that a centre back is supposed to do - keeping the attack frustrated.

Nani, Giggs, Scholes and Teves and at time Scholes + Tevez were kept at bay by the athleticism, pace and strength of what could be a great English centre back.

When they got by, they found Kasper Schmeicel ready on hand to provide some added frustration to ManU's forwards. Who can forget that freaky star jump of Peter during the bad old days of the 90s? [Yes, if you haven't figured, I'm the biggest Liverpool fan]

So, was Schmeicel the toast of Merseyside - heck, I would say he was the toast of the UK, save for Old Trafford and odd parts of London - not sure why Leytonstone boys love ManU? Must be the colour!


The Invisibles

Rob Styles, Fulham, Lawrie Sanchez - what do all of these have in common?
Well, they have led the fore front in the calls for television replays to the game.

How in tarnations do you give a penalty against a player who gets jumped into?
How far over the line do you want a ball to be before you give a goal?

Heck, I learnt how to give yellow cards in primary school. You hold the card up and you put it away. You don't walk around for 45 seconds boasting to everyone that you have one and flash it out by mistake again??

Surely the referees of the "best league in the world" can do better?

Who wants to be a referee?
