Who is going to win the premiership title.

As a complete neutral, I am really rooting for Liverpool to win the league this year. The stuff they are playing is phenomenal, it's been some of the best football I've seen in years, certainly in this country anyway.

True Roy of the Rovers stuff from Liverpool, they are playing the game the way I believe it should be played and they are a joy to watch, an absolute joy.

Their front 2 are worlds apart from the rest, and from an English point of view I really hope that all the English lads from Liverpool are on the plane to the world cup, they could light up the tournament if they play with the freedom they are allowed to at Liverpool.

So, for me, it simply has to be Liverpool. Anyone else and football would be the worse off in my opinion.

Unfortunately, even if they are on the plane they won't be allowed to play like that, Roy's proven that already :(
 
The shackles will certainly be on!

Boring! Novel as it may be to Liverpool fans, after all. Your spouse not English. How about we support England, top to bottom instead of criticising before it's even happened? England have tried going toe to toe with teams for 50 years and won squat, so Roy can't do any worse.

Because we know what Hodgson is like, you forget we had to watch him taking Liverpool down the drain with his mediocre boring tactics.
 
I'm beginning to think that the mighty Eagles arnt now going to win the title and may even struggle for a European spot!

Given that, I believe Man City will win it but I'd be delighted if it were Liverpool as I just love their football and goal scoring!

I reckon Woy could do a lot worse - he is doing , his football is negative , dull and useless.

Can't see England getting out off the group stage.

Looking at the teams in the group you may be right, but I'd have the same feeling whoever was in charge as we have two decent teams in our group. Not gonna have another debate on here about Roy, as Liverpool fans have made their mind up on him and nothing will change that (I'd have felt much the same had Redknapp taken over for England). But hopefully we can at least all support England until we're knocked out??

Far better managers than both Woy and Arry ! But the English people wanted an English manager

And don't get your hopes up too high about supporting England :thup:

im a saints fan so I'm realistic with my optimism. Won't stop me believing for 3 games lol. Whole point of supporting is with good and bad times. Heaven knows we've had enough if bad.......2

Where did anybody say they weren't going to be supporting England (Scots, Irish and Welsh members excluded obviously)?

Not being overly keen on the managers footballing philosophy is very different to not supporting the team.

Anyway - back to the thread

Heart = Liverpool for the title
Head = Chelsea
 
Supporting England means everyone involved, including the manager. Sniping at him before the tournament has begun is harsh in my opinion. But as I have said, I understand it as I'd probably have done the same if Old Arry had taken over. Also, I'm pretty sure the phrase "scouse, not English" is still commonly used. Can't say I've heard other fans say anything too similar.

I just think that Roy has some tactical nous, granted it didn't work out at Liverpool, and his football wasn't to the fans liking. BR is getting rave reviews and rightly so. But I remember everyone loving keegans football and look what he won, and the did with England.

Re OP. I actually think Liverpool are gonna do it as long as Suarridge play every game til end of season. They were bitterly unlucky against city n Chelsea away and if they perform like they have been I think they could easily win each game til end of season. Tonight is a big test for city as to win league I think they need a comfy own tonight.

Of course se will all be wearing our England shirts down the pub with a beer in hand singing our heads off. Doesn't change my mind though, I think we've got bugger all chance of even getting out of the group phase.

I won't be supporting them.
Why - because I'm not a England football fan - I'm a Liverpool FC fan.
 
I believe England's most successful manager is still Graham Taylor.

Really, not Sir Alf Ramsey?

Sniping at him before the tournament has begun is harsh in my opinion.

I was responding to another poster saying he hoped the Liverpool lads would play the same way for England, which Roy has shown that he won't set up that way. I'd say that was an observation, rather than sniping.
