Poor Sir Alex.

Quote:
Sir Alex Ferguson has complained the Football Association treat Manchester United "like s***'' as he prepares to send a sizeable portion of his squad away on international duty.

Asked about his England contingent, Ferguson said: "It is fantastic. The FA may realise who has produced more players for their country than any club in the world.

...he has highlighted his unhappiness with the FA, which covers a range of issues in recent times, including a touchline bans he served last season plus a controversial two-match suspension imposed on England striker Wayne Rooney that ruled him out of last season's FA Cup semi-final defeat to Manchester City.

"Maybe they will get some joy from it and realise how important we are to England instead of treating us like s***. I am pleased for the players. They are outstanding.''

Yeah. Thing is, you earned those suspensions. Its not like they just suspended you for nothing, Fergie just feels that he and his players should be allowed to act like petulant children with no restrictions.

West Ham United have confirmed they are in talks with Tottenham Hotspur over midfielder Scott Parker.

Spurs, however, have now opened discussions with the Hammers over a possible deal for the England international ahead of next Wednesday's transfer deadline, with manager Harry Redknapp a known admirer of the player's qualities.

They're going to have to have someone to replace Modric next season....

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
