Fergie’s Sympathy Vote for Rafa
Fergie feels for Rafa, not because Liverpool have failed to win in the Premier League this year, or because they find themselves 14 points adrift of the top spot. Nope, neither is it because they look set to be losing Mascherano and Sissoko to Juve. Fergie says he thinks the way the board have treated Rafa is bad business!

Oops, silly Footy Boots, you didn’t see it. link Fortunately, Bendtner’s Daddy did. link
Walcott on Loan
Staying at Arsenal, Wenger is said to be loaning out Theo Walcott. Walcott who was taken to the last World Cup by Sven, has looked out of his league in the Premier and may be hitting the dizzy heights of………. Reading! But only if they promise to play him as centre forward, and let him take the penalties and throw ins. link
African Cup of Nations
Both of yesterday’s games ended in draws. Tunisia were fortunate to share the points with Senegal, the game ended 2-2. In the other tie, South Africa and Angola ended 1-1. Manchester United bound Manucho scored a blinding diving header for Angola, that demonstrates why the Red Devils have signed him, subject to the work permit going through.
The second group games start tonight, Ghana v Namibia, Guinea v Morocco, both in Group A.
