    Look out United: Liverpool will steal your Champions League

    Look out United: Liverpool will steal your Champions League crown, claims Ancelotti

    AC Milan manager Carlo Ancelotti claims Liverpool will stop Manchester United from retaining the Champions League trophy after insisting Rafa Benitez's side are the hardest team to play against in Europe.
    Ancelotti has faced Liverpool in two Champions League finals and experienced failure and success.
    Milan lost the first in 2005 via a penalty shootout after being 3-0 up at half-time but won the European Cup with a 2-1 victory in Athens.

    Top tip: Ancelotti favours Liverpool to repeat their Champions League win in 2005




    'Liverpool are the hardest team to play against in Europe,' said Ancelotti.
    'Benitez is a great coach. He has a well organised defence and the perfect counter-attack. To play against them is always dangerous.

    'Manchester United are stronger but they let you play. Liverpool don’t.'
    Ancelotti is being coveted by Chelsea and Real Madrid but says he is still not interested in leaving the San Siro.
    Feel good: Ancelotti says he wants to stay at Milan


    However, the Italian did reveal an admiration for Blues interim boss Guus Hiddink that suggests the two coaches might be able to work together in the future.
    Hiddink admitted last week for the first time owner Roman Abramovich wants him to stay at Stamford Bridge beyond the end of this season.
    The Dutchman, who doubles up as coach of the Russia national team, revealed his contract at Stamford Bridge expires on May 31.

    But Hiddink also revealed Russian billionaire Abramovich had offered to extend his deal after that date - but only in a 'consultancy' role and not to continue as first team manager.

    Ancelotti added: 'I have still not found a good reason to leave Milan. I feel good here and want to stay here for a long time.'

    When asked about Chelsea, he added: 'Hiddink is the coach I regard most highly.'

    "Good things come out of the garrisons" after his daughter won the 100m Gold For Jamaica.


    "It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.

    RAFA'S PRIDE AT WORLD COACH HONOUR
    Steve Hunter 01 April 2009 Rafael Benitez has spoken of his pride at being voted the best coach in the world by supporters voting in three of the continents best known newspapers. Spain's AS and Marca, plus Italian broadsheet La Gazzetta dello Sport conducted online polls asking their readers to vote for the best coach in world football.

    Liverpool's manager was an overwhelmingly popular figure and came out on top, winning more votes than the likes of Alex Ferguson, Jose Mourinho, Arsene Wenger, Fabio Capello, Marcello Lippi, Vicente Del Bosque and Josep Guardiola.

    "I am really pleased. You cannot say that someone is the best in the world as it's almost impossible to guarantee that, but at least you have three big newspapers and supporters saying that we as a club are not bad," the boss told Liverpoolfc.tv.

    "That for me is very positive because it means our staff are really good and the players are really good.

    "The manager always depends on the players and his staff. You can't be a good manager if you don't have a good team behind you. If the supporters say you are doing well it's because your team, your club is doing well.

    "Clearly it's nice because it's supporters from three different countries that voted, as there was also another poll in Germany."

    Meanwhile, the boss is sweating on the fitness of his squad ahead of Saturday's trip to Fulham with the majority of his players not due back at Melwood until Thursday afternoon.

    "Every international break is always the same and a test for us so we need to be calm and relaxed and keep our fingers crossed that we don't lose any players," he added.

    "The players won't be back with us until Thursday evening so we won't have too much time to prepare.

    "In terms of preparation on the pitch it is impossible. We fly to London on Friday so we will try to think about mentally preparing the players and to adjust the small things."

      KAKA: WHY I LOVE GERRARD
      Jimmy Rice 01 April 2009 Some regard him as the best player in the world - but now Brazilian superstar Kaka has lifted the lid on which footballers he loves to watch. The AC Milan playmaker named Steven Gerrard in his top three favourite footballers, describing his as 'the complete modern player'.

      Kaka saw first hand how destructive Gerrard can be in the 2005 Champions League final, while the pair also met as Milan gained revenge in Athens in 2007.

      The 26-year-old told FourFourTwo magazine: "It's a difficult question, but if I had to choose three, I would pick Cristiano Ronaldo, because of his skill and speed; Messi, because of his flair and skills; and Steven Gerrard, who for me is the complete modern player."

      Kaka's comments come just weeks after fellow Ballon d'Or and World Cup winner Zinedine Zidane labelled Liverpool's skipper the best player on the planet.

        The easiest way for any of the big clubs to beat Liverpool is for them to change their names to "Hull", "Stoke" or "Wigan". For some reason, we can't take on the "little" clubs.

          Like the very YOUNG GUNNERS you just had a problem scoring (enough) goals ! You create the good chances (not as many per game as the VERY YOUNG GUNNERS!)...just not taking as many as you should!
