Back to the famous incident that happened not long ago...
Actually, its been a long long long long long.... time but some people just won't let it rest because that could have been the only Silverware they could have won...
but let's see what really happened back there and what should have been done???
Of course what I am about to say is about to get support from some parties and denial from some too. But no matter MU or Chelsea let's look at it this way.
on Ballack's side
It can not be denied, that was a foul.
I wouldn't say it was an elbow as the elbow did not hit Erva. From replays, we see Ballack use his hands to block Evra from going forward.
In Close Range Combat skill, I've learned that, when someone tries to knock you down by charging towards you like a mad man, putting a hand to the chest could reduce the impact and help you maintain balance.
So Ballack went to self defense classes and learned to body check other footballers. pretty cool...
But it can not be denied, Yellow Card. however, not red.
John Terry
yes, he didn't have anything to do with this but maybe he did talk a lot to the ref and help get Ballack out of trouble. He's a good captain after all.
But according to the rules which MU like to dig on always, talking too much to the ref is against the rules too!!!!
So let's go on and talk about someone else now.
The REFs
Chelsea fans says Erva's a diver
MU fans says Ballack's a cheater.
If both sides would just shut up and look clearly at the replay not the two players but the stupid ball!!!! The stupid ball which they kick around is the main thing!
From different angles, we could see that:
1. When Erva was hit, he didn't have the ball
2. The ball was passed to Rooney. [Seeing Evra falls, he didn't care but continued to play]
3. Then the ball was passed to Carrick. [Let's make it ridiculous for the MU fans that Rooney was trying to kick the ball out of play but Evra and Carrick got in the way. Did he kick out of play? NO! He continued and lost the ball]
4. The ball was perfectly sent down the field to Drogba which then did a sudden pass to Lampard and caught Foster off guard]
*MU players did not stop the play when they have the ball and scream and shout when Chelsea took it away and scored fair and square.
**as professional players, MU players should clearly know that the game stops only when the ref blows.
The ref played advantage which lasted for awhile. Rooney got it, ran with it and passed to Carrick and he ran with it and lost it. More than enough time for the advantage period to end.
Evra
his a driver. that's all i have to say.
he claims to be hurting and badly hurt.
I would say,,,, BULL S***.
I'm a qualified FIRST AID unit with more than enough experience. Earning my King Scout with it.
a person hurt to the chest [if really hurt], will firstly face minor breath problems for the first few seconds [i am judging from the blow that he received from Ballack]
then the chest pain would continue for a few minutes and the person will not be able to shout. [He shouted at the ref and Ballack]
I can witness to that with my First Aid skills and also personal experience of receiving an elbow to the chest.
respecting the ref
3 on 1 thats foul man...
3 on 1 again....
sad...
jokes...
"too bad they don't have an armored truck for you because you're doing the right thing. the Barce vs Chelsea ref got one because he was cheating. But you're not. Only cheaters get protected you know."
do managers need to respect refs???
good question....
but Alex says "NO!!! SCREW THEM!!!' [made up]
look at this....
this is pure respect...
another respectful Manchester United player
[made up joke]
Fer: You blind old man?!?
2 on 1
not a foul yet... yet....
nice....
and the English Premier League Golden Faker Award for 2009/10 goes to.....
who else?
seriously? ballack hit this faker on the chest and he claims his head's broken?!? next time when someone block his shots he going to say that person kicked his balls...
SADest case of all....
Mr Owen who successfully helped Real Madrid kill themselves and then helped Newcastle get relegated comes to Manchester United to prove that he is worthy for the England team!!!
What that Capello says? "He will need to work harder" [to the press]
[made up (in his mind)] Dream on loser!!!!
you can't deny that Ferdinand is needed in the England team. I am a fair guy. Joe Cole should go if a replacement can be found.
But Owen.... come on.... your time is over man.... unless you really improve you should really just dream about being in the England team.
But I also think Rooney should be replaced by Defoe. He is a 'crazy man' and gets booking too much. that might cost England their long waited FIFA WORLD CUP...
