The Manchester United thread

[WireMan]

no one here has suggested Spurs are top four

we call you Manure, you call us Spurs, whats in a nic name, if you're referring to the gutter media in your country, what has that to do with anyone here ?

Crouch only played because Keane was on the wing, because Modric was injured, personally I dont rate the beanpole

Huddlestone is a squad playe for when JJ is injured, nothing more, like you said he is too slow, we tried to unload him this summer.

Like I said, you guys beat us in the midfield, pure and simple

But Spurs is short for Tottenham HotSPURS, Manure isn't a nickname, its something used by southerners who think its funny. Just pointing out thats what you sounded like thats all.

I know why Keane was on the wing and Crouch upfront. I just didn't think it was a good idea. Better to play a proper midfielder, especially given how you were so outplayed in the middle of the park. Krankjaer (or however you spell it) could of done a better job, or Bently, or anyone really. Keane looked totally lost and out the game. Still you got an easy game next week. Please don't let them score another last minute winner, its getting boring now!!

I always thought "manure" was a song opposing fans sang about Duncan Edwards, in other words just another not so witty Munich reference.

For knock downs etc. However crouch isn't very good in the air, and Defoe has to play for scraps.

Shows how much you know you silly Mank tw*t.

Crouchy has scored the most from headers out of all current players in the EPL.
They mentioned it on Sky Sports after Cahill's header against Fulham.

Crouch 1st with 20, Cahill 2nd with 19.

Manure was used like that, but people nowadays think football started in 1993 (start of prem) and it is used as a play on Manu.

As for mr Camden nice bit of statistics work there. Now jog off because Crouch missed at least three chances on his head that a half way decent player would of at least got on target. Silly Cockney Muppet.

Man u will struggle when the big games come on cause the midfiled is still a huge worry

 

[WireMan]

I still lol when i remember that pommy commentator last season who made the statement about Scholes that "He's played 600 games and still can't tackle".

I heard an interview with Nicky Butt the other week and they asked him about Scholes tackiling. He said in training he is a very good tackler, on the pitch he knows what he is doing. He doesn't seek publicity so doesn't get any, but he can be a bit naughty. Probably because if you are 5 foot tall and have ginger hair you are not going to grow up soft. ;-)


As for our midfield, the form of Carrick is a worry, he lost it at the back end of last season and hasn't been able to find it again. When he gets it back a mid of him and Fletcher is easy good enough. Add in 2 good wingers and we are ok. The form of Rooney upfront has helped, along with Giggs and Scholes stepping up.

I'm Australian, you f**king Northern Monkey.

Crouchy is nowhere near the top strikers in the game. But bottom line is he is good in the air, he gives whatever team he plays for a target in the box and more than likely he'll get something on it.

 

[WireMan]

No he isn't good in the air. He wins headers because he is tall but they don't go anywhere. He really is not good enough.

Australian = really southern. ;-)

Anyone sticking up for Couch being good must be a bit cockney.

 

[The Camden Leisure Pirate]

Or a Liverpool Fan..... Guilty

Dude I live in Cheshire UK, I'm part Northern.

 

[WireMan]

Cheshire is in the south though. ;-)

Anyone south of the Manchester Ship Canal is a southern toff.

 

[The Camden Leisure Pirate]

Anyone North of Runcorn is inbread.

can we rename this thread

The Glory Hunters?

 

[Ridders]

Never has a newcomer made such a bright start to their LU career.

United had better f**king win tonight. After last night if I have to sit through a home Derby defeat as well, I'm pretty sure I'll mutate into some sort of hulking green monster.

 

[andrew057]

Awesome derby. Congratulations to Man United, the better team and deserved the win.

 

[sydraider]

What a game!

 

[Vossy]

lol chiteh, would like to be a fly on the wall in the chiteh dressing room to see how many things Hughes breaks..

how fuggen good was it!, 96th minute winner after so many defensive blunders..one of the best games ive seen thats for sure

what ever sir alex said at halftime to make them come out and play like that, he should do it more often, simply brilliant, great to watch..giggs was outstanding and fletcher has really come along now, he is getting better

suck sh!t Tevez you cat

i heart

 

[andrew057]

Man Utd boss Sir Alex Ferguson: We gave three goals away today. It could have been an embarrassment - we could have won 6-0 or 7-0 today. But in the end we still we won one of the best Manchester derbies. We have a neighbour, and sometimes neighbours are noisy, but we showed our power today and we get on with life.

 

[Jason Maher]

f**king hell.The few of my nerves that weren't frayed after Saturday night are well and truly frayed now courtesy of Foster and Ferdinand. Does this team EVER do things the easy way?

 

[WireMan]

The easy way is boring though... :sarcasm:

I like boring sometimes though!


Giggs is now officially (well in my eyes) the best player ever. Won it all for his club, loyal, still doing it after all those years.

Best ever.


PS: Glory hunters? meh, whatever.
