Ferguson to be disciplined by the FA:

Quote:
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has been charged by the Football Association with improper conduct following comments made about referee Howard Webb.

Ferguson previously said: "We are getting the best referee, there is no doubt about that. But (getting a bad decision) is definitely our big fear. We have the players to do it all right. We just hope it's our turn for a little bit of luck.''

New FA rules state no manager is allowed to speak about a referee in advance of a fixture being played, and, as Ferguson's comments came two days before the Blues clash, he was in breach of the law.

Suarez has been playing that to great effect the last few months, and with them rumored to be bringing in guys like Ashley Young etc.

is Gerrard going to turn in to a DM?
I doubt that, who knows, maybe we'll see Kenny try something along the lines of a couple of attacking mids with Carroll or Kuyt up front. The fun part is looking forward to it, he'll find something that will work.
