Re: Keane blasts Blatter, Platini

In the post match interview Henry said that it wasn't intentional. Although he was seen mouthing "I cheated" to Richard Dunne when they were sat on the ground after the match.
This was confirmed by Dunne and also Kilbane after the match .

I think it damage limitation by Henry.

Re: Keane blasts Blatter, Platini

Colosus

Keane was complaining about how the rules were changed by introducing seeding when it looked likely that some of the big teams might not qualify. Thats why he is having a go at FIFA/UEFA.

Re: Do junior teams need a "Sweeper"

Firstly why change it to attacking, you haven't got your point across when defending yet. The term sweeper is for behind the line and to plug the gaps so it can't be flat, see my post before its a combination defence. When you think of sweeper systems you think of individual players as the sweeper g...

You cant have a flat back four if you are playing the sweeper system, because the sweeper plays behind the lines hence not flat. You have generalised as the spare defender being the sweeper, not true he/she is the 2n...
