Mirror: Fergie must buy big to keep Rooney happy
Why Barton can't moan too much over red card Festive thrills mean we should never have a winter
break When Wayne Rooney looks lost and unhappy, you know there is something wrong at Old
Trafford. Dropped for the home defeat by Blackburn, United's only remaining player with the
X-Factor was a non-factor as they lost against at Newcastle.
Bojan Krkic was all but mauled by a Kickette Soldier girl at his book signing last week.
We're beyond proud.
Saturday
- Chelsea FC owner and Russian bajillionaire, Roman Abromovich, spared no expense for his New
Year's Eve party in St Bart's.
A lot is made of the culture that Sir Alex Ferguson has built at Manchester United, and the
foundation is built on an insatiable thirst for winning.
You can certainly see it on the field when watching the Red Devils take on English Premier League
opponents, but if you can't pinpoint that x-factor on the field, listen to comments by Manchester
United players, coaches and rivals.

If you give Photoshop-enabled laptops to the Mayhem & Fruit Beverage Suite bishes, this is what
you can expect to happen. We've learned this now and are trying to retrieve the computers, although
judging by the state of the intern who returned empty handed from the Suite a few moments ago, our
journey will be a long, hard one.
Manchester United star Wayne Rooney was at the centre of an unlikely Twitter spat with The X Factor
'wildman' Frankie Cocozza. The reality TV star tweeted: "#CelebsThatLookLikeTheyStink not really a
celeb but I bet his pits are stinking, along with his breath @waynerooney." You might wonder what
Rooney would gain from rising to the bait, [.

Since returning to Anfield, Kenny Dalglish has spent more than 100m on new players. Which, if any,
of these players could be sold at a profit for Liverpool in the future?
One of FSG's goals is to buy young players with a view to increasing their value over the duration
of their contracts, with Liverpool (hopefully) benefiting in the meantime.
Some good twitter reaction and quotes from various footballers following our 3-1 win over QPR. The
best discovered ones below:

Here we go again... new rides for these futbolitos! Last Friday, Real Madrid attended
an Audi go-karting event where they all pretended to be Formula 1 drivers. This week, it's the
Rossoneri's turn to carry out their marketing duties, where they received new cars
with customized front plates.
Shana, Kirsten, and Amanda start this week's show with a preview of the MLS wild card and
playoff games, and some Houston v. Philly trash talk for good measure. Amanda has a funny feeling
about Seattle, and once again, you may not want to listen if you support DC or NY. Sorry! In the
second segment, they discuss World Cup rights moving to Fox from 2015 on, what that could mean for
the WNT and youth national teams, and shudder at the prospect of Eric Wynalda trying to plug The
X-Factor.
Aguero, Ferdinand, Szczesny, Lennon, Johnson and the tweets of the weekend!

Snap judgments in the Patrice Evra-Luis Suárez dispute help no one | Marina
Hyde
All accusations of racism should be taken seriously, but all players are innocent until proven
guilty – contrary to what you may have read Is there anything less appealing than the absolute
moral certainty with which some Liverpool fans automatically dismissed Patrice Evra's claim that he
was racially abused, and some Manchester United fans automatically wrote off Luis Suárez as a
racist, despite neither faction having any way of knowing for sure what actually happened on the
pitch on Saturday?
Presenting the ideal opportunity to demonstrate whether you have the managerial X-Factor, if you
have always fancied yourself as the best Premiership manager around and reckon you can do better
than the current crop thanks to The Team of your Dreams you can do exactly that. Best of all, it's
absolutely free!
Top Gun, voodoo dolls and and avoiding the JPT and X-Factor
Matt Lawrence has played for seven league clubs including Fulham, Crystal Palace and Millwall,
for whom he appeared in the 2004 FA Cup final during his 16-year career. Now with League Two
Gillingham, his diary will appear on MirrorFootball every Monday.
Everyone from your local deli guy to the empanada aunties are rolling
over themselves screaming "WHAT IN THE WORLD is happening to Carlitos
Tevez", "Yo creía en él!!!" etc etc. And he struck again

Why Torres abuse shows football fans now have the X Factor mentality
I loved standing on the terraces of the Stretford End and the Kippax in the 1970s and Eighties.
I loved it for the anonymity you got from being part of the crowd. I loved it for the opportunity
to become lost in the tribalism of the occasion.

Writer's Note: This is not a "My First Football Match" type article.
The world has been through enough "football revolutions" to know that it is not everyone's
thing. Nothing is. Sure, I can get swept away in the furore and bluntness of the X Factor final but
only for that night (that hasn't happened yet.
Video: Lucas's reality TV stars
Which Liverpool star would be the best on X-Factor? Which Red would do well on Strictly Come
Dancing? These are just two of the questions we put to Lucas Leiva at Melwood recently and this
clip is now available exclusively to LFC TV Online subscribers.
So, the players will be back today, there'll be proper training and five initiation ceremonies
to go through. The tradition at Arsenal is that new boys have to sing a song which, to me, sounds
like a truly awful thing to have to go through.
And I don't mean for the new boy who has to do the singing.

Newcastle United's Dan Gosling stars in England U21 squad's X-Factor bonding
session
To the list of activities that are pursued all in the name of team bonding add another event –
X Factor night. Senior figures in England's Under-21 squad staged an impromptu get together.
There was much excitement garnered after earlier in the summer Milan declared they were searching
for a certain Mr. X. As the name suggests, it appeared as if the club were looking for a player who
possessed an x-factor element. A player who single-handedly would elevate the team to a higher
level and with it bring the club closer to the lofty heights that have characterised it's history
in the.
Who do you think will win the
league this season?
I think United will win it,
but I don't think there is as much room for error this season as last because I
just have a feeling that Chelsea
have one big year left in them before Villas-Boas starts to break the current
team up.

They will push United all the
way and, if Torres starts scoring which I think he will, then they will be pretty formidable.
Some say Youth tournaments are all about team systems, style of play, and of course they are. They
set a tone for the nation's coaches and players - something we are working towards in
Australia.
But for fans and for future Coaches they are also about individuals.
Barcelona without Lionel Messi compared to Spain without Messi.
A bit of David Luiz with more experience and maturity
A £10m reported offer by Arsenal for Everton centre back Phil Jagielka has been rejected. This
is £2m less than Wenger offered last summer for a defender he supposedly admires. One wonders if
Arsenal work on an EBITDA like scheme for football players to come up with such a reduced
offer.
