As far as body language goes, I work on the basis of :
Rafa angry - Ashley/Charnley have told him bad news directly.
Rafa happy - Ashley/Charnley have lied to him to make him believe he might get something he wants.
Don't be fooled by words and body language, man. I was convinced by his words and demeanour when they suggested that Staveley was about to buy the club.
It all means nothing.
The only thing of which we can be certain is that Ashley will be a cunt throughout any discussions.
I cannot envisage any situation where this happens. Good managers with good reputations want to succeed and win things. Ashley won't make that mistake again.
I think you can jump up but so long as you sit back down fairly quickly and don't rub it in, most people, if not everyone, would be ok with that. Me and my Dad did that at Chelsea once (about 1986 when Chelsea were a very different club.).
I'm being reserved about laughing for the moment. The quality of the league is so bang average, despite form, they could still snake their way to promotion.
Can’t see how a rubbish team at odds with their coach and no longer under pressure to get results are suddenly going to challenge the best team of the last decade.
Because things like that often happen for Liverpool. Feels like it's all going their way.
In saying that, and although there is only one game left, I've felt for a while that they have a dodgy result coming their way. I thought it was going to be last night originally.
