Rooney the stand out

According to Henry Winter, and for the 70 minutes i saw i can't argue, he was the main man.

Rooney to try to qualify for his coaching badges as he plots a future in football after finishing as a player which we all hope is a long way off.

Anfield not the happiest place to be in the premier league, i hope it's even more miserable after the 25th October. We want some pay back after the two dismal performances we put in against them last season especially that debacle down here.

Though Ferdinand's dismal form is perhaps one reason not to be too optimistic. I am getting increasingly concerned we may have seen the best of him. Capello doesn't blame him for the defeat yesterday, but how many mistakes is that he has made this season for club and country that have led to goals against. Ashley Cole was no better but he isn't making a habit of it.

As Obama laughingly gets the Nobel peace prize a story about the type of person who should be in for these awards but never get mentioned

I suppose this was a political decision aimed at the neo cons rather than anything else. But that's pretty ludicrous, i don't think Cheney et al is going to lose any sleep over peace prizes.

Mick Hume argues that the Tories have changed but not for the better, they are just another bunch of accountants along with new labour. That may be the case but a whole article about the tories without mentioning Europe, they haven't changed that much.
