FYI. Sebelum double big match EPL kemaren, gue baca artikel (tau nih bener apa kagak), Fergie meluncurkan psywar kepada cmiiw Chelsea. Lumayan nyambung sama postingan Dein beberapa waktu yang lalu. Kalo ABU di sini sih (selain Chelsea fans) kayaknya lebih prefer dua2nya ga juara.:) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 19 January 2007 FERGIE: EVEN KOP FANS WANT US TO WIN THE TITLE By David McDonnell http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/tm_headline=fergie--even-kop-fa ns-want-us-to-win-the-title%26method=full%26objectid=18500456%26siteid =94762-name_page.html
SIR ALEX Ferguson last night claimed Chelsea have become so unpopular that even Liverpool fans now want their arch-rivals Manchester United to win the Premiership. United and Liverpool's rivalry is among the most bitter in football, but Fergie believes Chelsea's ability to buy success, coupled with their pragmatic style of play and perceived arrogance has made them Public Enemy No.1. And Fergie claimed Chelsea's popularity is at such an all-time low that the previously unthinkable has now happened - Liverpool fans rooting for United to snatch the title from Jose Mourinho's side. "With Chelsea not endearing themselves to everyone in the game, it's strange that people, even Liverpool fans, are saying to me 'I hope you win the League', which is amazing," said Fergie. "But I think that Liverpool supporters will always recognise what good football teams are. I think we're playing good football and I think that is getting its message across." United became the team everyone loved to hate in the 1990s because of their domination of the Premiership and their re-emergence under Fergie as one of the best sides in Europe. But Fergie believes Chelsea now occupy that position in the hearts and minds of football fans up and down the country, who are willing United to lift the title. "We've always had our detractors but also our admirers," said Fergie. "So I don't think it's ever been overloaded in one way. "When we got all the success in the late 1990s I think, quite rightly, a lot of clubs were hoping we'd lose a week, simply because you don't want a monopoly. "I watch a game on TV and I want the underdog to win, it doesn't matter what the game is. That's the way people are and it's quite right. "But I think that they always recognised we played good football and anytime we won the League it was because of our style and the way we went about it." As for speculation over Mourinho's future, Fergie added: "I had dinner with Jose in November and he seemed happy enough.'' --------------------------------- Food fight?
