Fergie: I Wanted A Liverpool Win

Sir Alex Ferguson's busy week continues with his latest assertion that he wanted Liverpool to beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last weekend.

In his implication that he wanted Liverpool to win the table-top clash on Sunday, Ferguson seemed to be writing off the legitamacy of Rafa Benitez's bid for the title.

Arguably, the Manchester United manager still considers both Chelsea and Arsenal to be his side's closest competitors, although United still lie eight points from Liverpool, who are top by a clear margin of three.

Ferguson stirred trouble on Friday when he implied that Liverpool did not have the requisite quality to defeat Chelsea on their own turf; he predicted a close match but stated that Arsenal were a more likely vanquisher of the Blues at the Bridge.

At the time, he told the press: "Sunday's game will be very tight, not many goals in it. But Arsenal could win there because they've got the quality to win."

In the wake of the match, Ferguson delighted in Chelsea's defeat as it leaves the pretenders to the Premier League throne sitting close to Manchester United, within five points, with 29 matches still to play.

He told reporters in reference to Liverpool's narrow 1-0 win: "That was the result I wanted."


Alex Ferguson always gets what he wants :greatpost:

i didnt want to see chelsea 8 pts clear, liverpool imo are not as good as chelsea and possibly even arsenal and it will be easier for us to catch liverpool... if we had won on saturday a draw would have made me happiest

Or because Chelsea are a far superior side.

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

In terms of first XI's, you have Clichy, Sagna, Walcott and maybe Fabregas who are better than their Liverpool counterparts.
