Latest twitter:
"Scoring winning goal vs barca,even though fairly simple by his standards, and torres is feeling it again!Great 2 c, confidence is everything"
So.. Andy himself says confidence is everything.
He's said as much with regard to what sets apart the very top tennis players too. He knows it ok but knowing is not same as having it and unfortunately confidence doesn't come with will power even though Andy does say that the stronger he feels physically the more confident he feels. |

Andy has made a comment on his twitter re. The Sun newspaper and new England manager Roy Hodgson:
"Interesting front page of the sun today... Seems like they really want hodgson to succeed.... #helpful"
Irony I think. This is the Sun's front page  Read more linked to by the Huffington Post. Helpful, I think not. |

Definitely irony. I don't do twitter but I guess it's difficult to signal irony on it so there are bound to be some idiots who will read this as Andy endorsing awful Sun.

This has got to stop. The poor man has a lisp I think its a disgrace the way English newspapers treat their sportsman and women. I think this has been done because they wanted Harry Rednap to be the English Football manager. It is a poison chalice and should be avoided at all costs.

Yes this, irony is something completely different. This has got to stop. The poor man has a lisp I think its a disgrace the way English newspapers treat their sportsman and women. I think this has been done because they wanted Harry Rednap to be the English Football manager. It is a poison chalice and should be avoided at all costs.
Yep. It's pathetic. Like a school bully when they don't get their way. Just a joke of a newspaper. |

According to Dictionary.com sar·casm 1. harsh or bitter derision or irony. 2. a sharply ironical taunt; sneering or cutting remark: a review full of sarcasms. Ironyincludes "the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning: the irony of her reply, “How nice!” when I said I had to work all weekend." I'll stand by irony, certainly not "completely different" |

I guess these pics mean he's at home. I wonder when he'll decide whether or not to go to Rome.
