Alex Ferguson accuses Rafa Benitez of "arrogance"
By Mirror.co.uk

Sir Alex Ferguson has accused Rafa Benitez of "arrogance" and showing "contempt" in his dealings with fellow Premier League managers.
The Liverpool chief has been in combative mood recently, on several occasions launching verbal volleys at Ferguson.
And ahead of Sunday's FA Cup semi-final with Everton, Ferguson has hit back with a withering assessment of Benitez's conduct.
First he lambasted the Spaniard for his description of Everton as a "small club" before rounding on him for the attitude he showed in dismissing Blackburn last weekend once Liverpool had scored their second goal at Anfield.
"Everton are a big club, not a small one which Benitez arrogantly said," said Ferguson.
"But arrogance is one thing. You cannot forgive contempt, which is what he showed (Blackburn manager) Sam Allardyce last weekend.
"When Liverpool scored their second goal he signalled as if the game was finished. I do not think Sam deserved that.
"Sam has worked so hard for the LMA (League Managers' Association) and he's had a weakened team. I just thought it showed contempt.
"In my experience no Liverpool manager has ever done that. It was beyond the pale."
The tirade should enliven the Premier League title battle when it resumes next week, although Ferguson will feel justified in making the attack.
Benitez had delivered what he claimed to be "facts", about United which the Red Devils do not believe to be true.
And while Ferguson has tried to resist the temptation to respond, this time he felt he needed to make a stand against the Liverpool manager, who feels more sure of his ground after finally steering his club into championship contention despite this week's Champions League exit at the hands of Chelsea.

Take yer bindipper specs off ffs

[ilscuro]

My thoughts are...

I'm a red and admit SAF has been gulity of arrogance at times, but losing the plot? nah, i reckon rafa will be eating his words before long.

I could wear a big pair of Elton John novelty specs and still could not see any arogance in that.

Have you seen it? or do you blindly just follow the views of others.



Your telling me that that is demeaning and arrogant.He's obviously looking at someone on the pitch and not as fat Sam put it "in my general direction".

Fat Sam is just Fergies bitch and Fergie is still smarting at Benitez's side bumming them at home and now he's losing the plot because like you all he probably thought it was all over once you got to the top again.

I think it's you who needs to put some specs on.

im sure it will be fergie smiling at the end of the season imo.

[Geko]

I said it at the begining of the season and still say it now.

1st - Man utd. 2nd - Chelsea. 3rd - Liverpool.


Gerrard still carries them. Even when Cech is giving goals away they can't score more than Chelsea.



Fergie knows exactly what he is doing.... lol

And Rafa's attitude pisses off a lot of other managers.

Apart from when we beat them in the league. Twice.

I see nothing wrong with what Rafa did. Biased. Perhaps. But I think people can read into his gesture what he wants.

It is Man U's to lose, that has not changed.

Losing the plot is a bit extreme.

But it still gave me a giggle. Been talking to a Manc about it, and of course he is completely blinkered about it all, as you'd expect.

For starters, I don't see how the gesture is aimed at Allardyce. It's obvious he's looking at his players at the time. If it upset him that much, why didn't he mention it straight after the game? Why leave it the best part of a week until Fergie brings it up?

As for Ferguson himself, hearing him call anybody "arrogant" is a bit rich. Only the most blinkered United fan could deny that. Wasn't it only a week or two ago he was saying something about he'd rattled Rafa because he was talking about Ferguson instead of his own game? Oh, and what's he doing? Hmm... Seriously, this is absolutely fuck all to do with Ferguson, ANYBODY should be able to see through this - it's just a pop at Rafa. As I said to my manc mate, the only time Fergie does anything like that is when he sees them as a threat.

Oh and Rap, everyone agrees with him? Not on Talksport, they don't. I heard someone yesterday (Adrian Durham?) making almost exactly the same point I have in the bold part above. Methinks it's you that needs to take the specs off.

[matthewy2]

hey dickhead it took him 7 years lol

he has won 10 since though- how many have liverpool won in 20 years ????????????????????????????????????????

u live off the past

[BBK]

LMAO weak, very weak.

[Lighty]

Fuckin hell only a fuckwitt of a scouser could come up with a poor attempt at an attack on ferguson like this, I expect nothing less than you bitter sad twats. You fucking purse snatching bastards still think the world owes you a living cos you were half decent over 20 years ago! Get over it your all just talking united all the time cos you aspire to be the best like them

Picture the scene.....your playing for a championship side playing against a premier league side in the third round of the FA cup.All is not going well and with only ten minutes to go you are 3 nil behind and it looks like your going out.

The opposition signal to the ref to bring a sub on,you glance across to see who's coming on and notice it's the youth team goalkeeper..."hmmm" you think,"we'll just try shooting from anywhere and might get a consolation goal" then you notice the player coming off for him is not the goalkeeper but an outfield player.As the substituted player walks past his manager he get's a pat on the back "well done son" says the manager "cheers sam" says the player......

A true story guess who the manager was...i'll give you a clue he's very hypocritical.

[Bulld0g1961]

Liverpool have scored 4 more goals than Chelsea . WTF you on about

[Bulld0g1961]

Anyone who can't see that the drunken tramp is trying tp play his mindgames again is obvious a Manc. He tried it with Keegan a few years ago and Keegan cracked. He tried it with Wenger but wenger never took the bait.Now he's trying it with Rafa. The sad tramp is trying to turn the pressure up on Benitez by trying to get other managers on his side. Come on, the Everton are a small club comment was made about 3 years ago.

Why didn't the cunt with a nose like a blind cbblers thumb say anything then or since.
He's waited till now for one reason. He knows Rafa is a danger to him now.

[B.I.G.]

On the subject of the Everton comments in the full interview Fergie said this....


"Irrespective of what Rafa Benitez says, they are a big club," said Ferguson. "He called them a small club, which just points to his arrogance.
“David Moyes is building a big Club, the evidence is there; a young squad will get better."

Would anyone care to explain how in one breath he can say Everton are a big club and in the next say Moyes is building a big club?

Would that not imply they aren't a big club in the first place and he in fact agrees with Rafa?
or is he indeed as the thread title says "losing the plot".
