He knows his sport too:

[quote]Silvio Berlusconi has blamed the tactics of former boss Carlo Ancelotti for Milan's poor season. "This season [we] didn't play with the tactics I suggested," barked the Italian PM. "Games were lost because in the last minutes the team failed to play the way I advised."

Quite. I disliked Blair immensely too, I always thought right from '97 that he just looked like a grinning village idiot. Brown has been doing the classic of blaming the economy for a lot of problems without remembering that he was the Chancellor for all those years.
