Sammy Lee today shrugged off remarks made by Alex Ferguson following Liverpool's victory over Blackburn last weekend.
The Manchester United boss criticised a gesture made by Rafa Benitez from the touchline following Fernando Torres' second goal.
Lee revealed the gesture was simply a message to the Liverpool players following a successful set-piece.
"Certainly, any gestures that are made pitchside are to our players, not to anyone else," the assistant manager told a press conference this afternoon.
"It was a reaction to what we thought we should have been doing (from the free-kick), but something else was done and it resulted in a goal. We only consider what we want our players to do. We don't make any gesture to anyone else at all.
"One thing I'll say is that Rafa is certainly not arrogant, no way.
"I think it's quite sad, really. At the end of the day, we try to get on with the job we've got to do and not worry about what other people are thinking about us."
Ferguson's remarks were echoed by Allardyce last week.
Lee added: "I'm surprised he didn't mention anything to me when we were sat having a drink after the game. No one mentioned anything, and I'm sure if anyone felt strongly about it they would have. But we'll move on.
"It's not for us to talk about other football clubs. We very rarely do. We try to concentrate on what's going on here and let the game take its course."
I hope so. It's a great move if true, he can talk about meeting fat sam after the game and it will wind up Mr F as he he will have failed miserably in getting Rafa distracted, whilst having distracted himself out of the FA Cup.
Would be so funny, Sammy tells em how it is/was.
Rafa, he gets the message across that all he's interested/concentrated on in his team and winning the Prem if poss....all without saying a word.
Sammy Lee..

I want him to say he's got something more important to do and introduce "the greatest ever Scottish Football has ever produced, HIS MAJESTY....KING KENNY DALGLISH"
Course, the Mancs will now claim that Rafa is running scared and has sent out someone else to face the questions...
fergusion can't say a ****ing thing about this as he's decided to get hammered and batter his missus when he loses a game recently, rather than being interviewed. totally deflates ferguson's rant really. teehee. i like having a bright manager.
