it actually was, man city played like ass, it was soo boring to watch the second half. more then obvious they were playing for the draw.

Exactly. And Wenger made some idiotic moves. taking out Walcott and replacing him with Arshavin who stunk.

Then deploying Bendtner as a Left Winger? what gives?

Kenny Dalglish in, Roy Hodgson out.

Hodgson leaves Liverpool 'by mutual consent'

Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson has left the club by mutual consent.

Hodgson, 63, won only seven of 20 Premier League games after taking over from Rafael Benitez in July 2010 and led the club to 12th in the table.

Former player and manager Kenny Dalglish has been placed in charge until the end of the season.

"Both parties thought it in the best interests of the club that he stand down," said American owner John W Henry in a statement on the club's website.

Hodgson refused to answer questions about his Anfield future following Liverpool's 3-1 defeat by Blackburn on Wednesday, the club's third loss in four Premier League games, which left them just four points clear of the relegation zone.

David Beckham 'to train' with Tottenham first team - Won't play.

Former England captain David Beckham has agreed to train with Tottenham until 10 February but will not play for the Premier League club on loan.

BBC Sport understands that insurance premiums have made a short-term loan deal for the LA Galaxy midfielder complicated preventing a move to Spurs.

"Tottenham are delighted to announce that David Beckham will train with the first-team squad," said the club.

Earlier, manager Harry Redknapp had said the loan move was a "no-goer".

Galaxy demanded the insurance fee after he picked up an Achilles injury during his last spell on loan in Europe with AC Milan last season.

That injury ruled the former Manchester United player out of last year's World Cup.

It will come as a blow to the 115-cap midfielder, who had been hoping to catch the eye of England manager Fabio Capello with a two-month loan spell at the Premier League side...

I feel sorry for Hodgson, I wonder if that's his career in management done

Nah, I doubt it.

I think everyone outside of Liverpool knew he didn't stand a chance.

That and he never got to secure his own players which didn't help.

He just got ?3 million in compensation - it's hard to 'feel sorry' for him.

Nah, I doubt it.

Liverpool have confirmed Steve Clarke has been appointed as a first-team coach at Anfield.

The former Newcastle, Chelsea and West Ham assistant will move to the Merseyside club and take up the post as Kenny Dalglish looks to form a backroom staff that will help results improve on the pitch.

Reds legend Dalglish is in charge at Liverpool until the end of the campaign following the departure of Roy Hodgson on Saturday.

Clarke left his job at West Ham in the summer after the club parted company with Gianfranco Zola, having worked under Jose Mourinho at Chelsea.

The 47-year-old Scot brings with him a wealth of coaching experience and Dalglish is delighted to see him arrive at the club.

"Steve is a great addition to our backroom team and I'm delighted we've been able to bring him into the club," he told Liverpool's official website.

"I am looking forward to working with Steve alongside Sammy (Lee) and our other technical staff."

Rivals Manchester United made sure Dalglish's first game in charge ended in defeat after earning a 1-0 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup on Sunday.

The Reds now have the chance to turn around their poor Premier League form when they go to Blackpool on Wednesday.

The Football Association has charged Liverpool forward Ryan Babel with improper conduct after he criticised referee Howard Webb on Twitter.

The comments followed Liverpool's defeat by Manchester United in Sunday's FA Cup third-round tie.

Babel forwarded on a mocked-up picture of Webb in a United shirt and also said: "And they call him one of the best referees. That's a joke."

The Dutchman later removed the posts before apologising to Webb.

"My apology if they take my posted picture seriously. This is just a emotional reaction after losing an important game," he said.

"Sorry Howard Webb."

---

New Liverpool caretaker manager Kenny Dalglish will be a candidate for the post on a permanent basis.

The Scot is in charge until the end of the season, with director of football Damien Comolli tasked with finding Roy Hodgson's long-term successor.

Asked whether former Reds player and manager Dalglish would be considered Comolli said: "The answer is yes."

Dalglish added: "If I do really well and someone better than me comes along I will have no problem whatsoever."

Seriously, are they not allowed to make fun of/critisize refs? What kind of protective shields do these men have?

It's more about saying the ref has a bias towards one team. Once a ref is accused of being biased it makes it even more difficult for that ref to officiate any game connected directly or indirectly with that club and may end up making him biased against that team. It's one of those rules designed to stop things happening just like how Clattenburg wasn't allowed to be a ref when companies he was involved with had financial issues because it opens him to bribes.

To me Babel was stupid to post the picture, he could have claimed it was someone else, eg a mate at his house but then he's basically admitted it was him who posted it so...

The FA seem to go to ludicrous lengths to protect referees these days, it seems they don't want to hold them to account for their poor decisions. The issue with poor refereeing in the premier league just won't go away, and the FA do not seem to want to go to any lengths to rectify it. If you are being cost results by poor officiating, you should have the right to speak out in my opinion.

      The only reason I want to know where you from is because if you are not from the U.K, then why should you care what we in the U.K do or don't do? Racist I am not, I am fed up with the amount coming over here and feel they can come over here and think we need to support them. Do you know how much it costs this country to support these people coming over here? Even when we give them a place to live it is not good enough. We had a barge that was being used to house immigrants, oh but that was not good enough. A mate said to me at the time, when he was homeless, he would have been happy to live on the barge, instead of ending up sleeping on a bench on the beach. I am not scared to say what my family heritage is, unlike you who is scared to say where they are from or where they live. Father side U.S, mother side Wales, still have family living in the U.S. A mate who sadly died a few years ago, had a load of people from different races recording in his studio, I got on with all of them. Skin colour don't bother me, where they are from don't bother me. Religion don't bother me as long as they don't push it onto me and it is not crazy stuff. I am not religious. But if you are not living in the U.K, then why should you care if we are in the E.U or not? This the problem, too many people poking their noses into where it don't belong. But you believe what you believe, if you think I am racist, then be it, I really do not care. Just grow a pair

      If he hasn't been able to figure that out, then why is he obsessed with tariffs? Because that's one of the most prominent tools to level the playing field when you have high cost of labor.

      Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5102558, KB5095615 Setup and Recovery updates by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft released the newest preview update (C-release) under KB5095093. Alongside those, Microsoft also released new dynamic updates. For those who may not know, dynamic updates bring improvements to the Windows Recovery process in the form of Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) updates, which are also called Safe OS updates. The dynamic updates also affect the Setup file binaries in the form of Setup updates. These Dynamic Update packages are meant to be applied to existing Windows images prior to their deployment. Dynamic Updates also help preserve Language Pack (LP) and Features on Demand (FODs) content during the upgrade process. VBScript, for example, is currently an FOD on Windows 11 24H2. This time both recovery and setup updates were released for Windows 11. The company writes: "KB5095186: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, version 26H1: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.28000.2335. KB5102558: Setup Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to Windows setup binaries or any files that setup uses for feature updates in Windows 11, version 24H2 and Windows 11, version 25H2. KB5095615: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.26100.8737." Microsoft notes that both the Recovery and Setup updates will be downloaded and installed automatically via the Windows Update channel.
