I watch the game Liverpool 'v' Feyenoord in The Rotterdam Tournament today.
What sticks in my mind most of all ?
Well Royston Drenthe seem to me to be a very, very good player - he runs and runs, shows very nice ball control and wow he is quick too......
Other things that stick in my memory about this game were the wreckless challenges by several Liverpool players, Arbeloa most of all.......several times the Liverpool player would crunch the opposition and this is not good in a friendly game.
Also - arguing with the ref time after time after time.......
Feyenoord got award of a penalty ok......it should not be penalty fair enough.......but once the penalty is given thats it - tough luck and you get on with it. But no - they argue and argue till one of them is booked......then Torres runs slowly all the way across the box - the ref books him for this too - then the Liverpool players start to clap the ref sarcastic way.
Next - Arbeloa gets mad with Drenthe and shoves him in the chest - Drenthe is mad but walks off as his team mates try to protect him - Gerrard runs over and with his left hand punched a guy in the side of his head !!!!
There are plenty more things in this game I dont like but this tells you what the game was like.
Many children watch these guys - when I have children I feel I need to protect them, from teams like this Liverpool one !!!!
The fans in Athens show their attitude too with all the mugging and fighting with each other never mind other fans !!!!!
So.........
What will be done about this behaviour in the future I ask you.......
There is no place in this game for people like this but no one seems to care - no one ever does anything.......!!!!!
