Do you think he'll have more authority than Steven Gerrard? An ageing manager, with little trophies to his name, who's come in from a relatively small club after an uncharacteristically decent season versus Mr Liverpool FC, Champions League winning Captain and Englands World Cup captain?
You mean the has been Gerrard who Jose won;t touch with a barge pole now? Unless they gave him away!

Now Drogba to City is the one that should send shivers down the Urals and up the trussochs, through the channel tunnel.

Actually I do. Didn't do himself many favours for England and if he's not careful they'll ship him out because all of last year he was gash after his preseason pub bust up.

I agree, he's been treading a fine line.. But Hodgson is not the man to put Gerrard down a peg or two. He's too big (at that club, in that city)

Not when he leaves after having a good moan, which is likely to happen this season :P
