Jez, some people really go over the top with the Houllier abuse.
The Australian FA have denied they have ever contacted Houllier, but the rumours go back a few months now.
Anyway, Farina is doing a great job with the Socceroos. The real problem is how FIFA discriminate against Oceania: for years Australia often had to play a South American team to qualify for the World Cup. I know that has changed, but Australia could be a power in football as the country is world class in other sports. Maybe the Houllier appraoch is an idea to replicate his success with French underage football?
