Gerrard puts faith in Fabio
We have renewed the Rumours and Transfers and from now on it will be known as The Reporter.
New changes:
You have the section divided into rumours and pieces of news. You can add photos to the news and rumours. If look carefully, each news that contains an image will have a small icon next to it referring to the image.
Classification of news and rumours:
The classification of news and rumours will be based on two criteria: number of votes and ancestry. The latest and the most voted news and rumours will be displayed on the top. If for example you observe that at the end of one week a news or rumour a lot of votes goes below another article with less votes it will be because it is not so new. In any case you can choose between looking at it in this order, only the latest, the most commented on or only news or rumours.
How do I upload a news?
Inside the section, on the left you will find the "Upload news" botton.

Gerrard puts faith in Fabio
PIECE OF NEWSITALIAN BOSS SHOULD STAY, SAYS GERRARD
Captain Steve Gerrard has leapt to the defence of coach Fabio Capello ahead of England's opening Euro 2012 qualifiers. The Three Lions host Bulgaria at Wembley on Friday evening before taking on Switzerland in Basel on Tuesday in the first competitive games since the World Cup debacle.
Liverpool star Gerrard has pledged his full backing to Italian boss Capello, and insists it is "crazy" to suggest England will suddenly be transformed into a tournament-winning team by a "knee-jerk" change of manager.
"I wanted Fabio to stay. I have a lot belief in him," said Gerrard. "It's important that Fabio is still given a chance. For me, he's a fantastic manager. Who out there that is an English manager has the CV that Fabio Capello has got?
"Will his future be decided by these two games? I don't know. I hope not. I'm not in control. It has happened before but hopefully that won't be the case again. Hopefully we can get two good results and start slowly building for the future. There are still good managers out there.
"But it would be a knee-jerk reaction to sack a manager after one bad tournament, then think everything will be rosy when you start with a new guy and we'll go on and win Euro 2012. That's crazy. It's crazy to think it's as easy as that."
Some sections of the media have made Capello public enemy No.1 since England's dismal World Cup showing this summer. But Gerrard insists the players and not the manager should take the majority of the blame for South Africa, and has dispelled speculation of a communication breakdown between Capello and the team.
"It seems as if there's a lot of blame going towards the manager," he added. "But it was the players who under-performed out there. People talk about tactics and stuff, but there's only so much that a manager can do. The players have to deliver, and the players never delivered in Africa.
"Of course, everyone knows in football that the manager eventually gets the blame if things don't go well, but for me, we should get behind him now. The communication between players and managers is also not a problem. He talks to the players individually, and the team, and the message does come across."
