Why, why why, did Robbie Keane have to come back from Liverpool? And why did he have to score against us? Well, if you listen to the Sunderland message boards, it’s all Ricky’s fault for the loss. And I’m going to start thinking that way. I mean, my only management experience is in Footy Manager, so I can’t really talk that much. But how do you in a close match, pull out your attackers? I mean come on.
Anyway from the club’s website, this is what Ricky had to say after the match:
“With 89 minutes players, we felt we had got three points. We had an attacking corner and we should have kept the ball and seen the time out.
“Credit to Tottenham, they put a lot of bodies forward. I thought we had seen that off but defensively we were poor.
“To do we what we did was criminal. We got carried away when we should have finished the game off and won 1-0.”
Damn, well, let me stew in this hatred for another couple of days.
