The Manchester United thread

[Matt23]

That's Berba's goal quota for the next couple of months...I was also impressed with Anderson's display last night too

 

[WireMan]

Top of the league!! Very nice.

Rooney played well which is good, Berbatov was better so lets he can kick on now, its about time we had a settled team so partnerships can be formed.

Anderson looked good in the middle, good direct play and passing.


In loan watch, Cleverly was the stand out player for Wigan as they went down to West Ham and Welbeck scored again for Sunderland.

These two look to have big careers infront of them. Cleverly to replace Park and Welbeck to replace Berbatov would be my guess.

Based on one poor game? Please...

Awesome shot. The bend on it was Beckham esq.


Our game was called of on Friday due to a frozen pitch. If it had been checked on Saturday it would of been alright.

Never mind, the next few games get interesting now.

What is it with world class players not signing with United? Tough luck on Schweinsteiger, Scholes will have to play until he's 54.

Who wants to sign for Bayern Munich again?

 

[Ridders]

Apparently Jonny superstar Evans is set to be sent out on loan in Jan. Interesting move.

best news ive heard all day

 

[Jason Maher]

Top by 2 with a game in hand against Blackpool. Things are looking up. Let's hope we can dig that rut Chel$ki are currently stuck in a little bit deeper next week.

 

[the_flight_of_the_magpie]

So really we are 5 points clear of Citeh and the Arse

 

[WireMan]

Good win was that.

Arsenal did the usual passing with no end product. We played a little deep but Carrick, Fletch and Ando all had good games.

Rooney getting back to form now, missed a pen but that happens. Other than that led the line well.



Other news covered. We will see about Evans, the guys confidence is well down at the mo. but he is easily good enough to make it.

Sweinsteiger would of been alright, shame he chose the easy option, he can continue to dominate Germany like he has been... oh right. He isn't. Guess our scouts saw him play vs Bayer or Shalke and decided not to bother... ;-)

He would have scored 4 goals had he played against Wenger's babies in the epic snooze fest this morning.

How come United can't attract world class players they keep telling us they're the biggest club in the world but the biggest stars don't want to go there I don't get it.

When was the last time a Beckham or a Cristiano Ronaldo played for Bayern Munich?

Because Manchester is a depressing and dreary city.

PS, I follow them but understand why players choose to play in Spain or Italy.

Beckham is on par with Hamit Altintop. Ronaldo wanted out of United for years.

:lol: you are having a laugh

Ronaldos best years were at Old Trafford

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Imagine how good he would have been had he played where he wanted to be all that time. You're right I am having a laugh, Beckham was never as a good as Altintop.

 

[the_flight_of_the_magpie]

Altintop who is he again?

You ever been to those cities?

Milan and Madrid for example are freezing this time of year and Barca really is a dump. Rome and Florence are falling down and Venice basically has an open sewer running through it.

And yes, i have been to all those places. South of France is actually the nicest place. A move to Monaco or Nice is what you want to be looking for, if your afraid of the cold.

Manchester is a fine city, if your dreary and depressed there then that is your issue as a person.


As for TT, meh. They are the most accurate things you have ever said about football which says more for your total lack of knowledge than anything else. ;-)

Actually it's not.

After New York, it's my favourite foreign city (yes, far superior to London).

Manchester on the whole is friendly, compact, and has a definite personality. Whilst London has all the touristy sights, culturally Manchester is a much more happening city and one that you can wander around in and simply soak up the vibe. At this time of the year it's great, albeit cold, with the Christmas Markets and so on.

The only negative about it are those pricks that play just outside the city boundaries...

Oh and clearly top-class players have no problem living in Manchester -- just ask David Silva, Yaya Toure, Carl... I mean, Mario Balotelli...
