rafael again on the bench
the aftermath of his concussion or what the hell is going on?
February 26, 2011 at 14:28
Ash says:
@RAT1P
I think its because of the injury to rio.I dont think fergie fancies playing both smalling and rafael together as both are not that much experienced but dissapointed to see rafael in the bench.He along with chicho and smalling have been our breakthrough players this season.

what s wrong with the boss…O(who )Shea starting ahead of rafael nd fletcher in front…the right wing doesnot exist…

Think Fergie prefers O Shea at full back to protect Smalling more

North Stand Tier 2 says:
Seriously why is Raf on the bench again? JOS always gives the ball away, its irritating!
February 26, 2011 at 14:32
Balaji Sivaraman says:
Surprised to see Scholes playing this one. I would’ve guessed SAF would’ve rested him for this game to have him ready for the rent boys and the scousers. This means Scholes would most probably not play either one of those games which I find really surprising.

And Owen not on the bench is really disappointing. Really hope he becomes fit sooner rather than later and starts making an impact.

Pitch looks fucked up with the relay only in some areas

Hopefully that won’t hamper the lads too much!

could be(offtopic)would have loved to see rafa against chelsea and at the moment oshea is most likely to feature against them

anyway lets concetrate on our game today hope to see one of our midfileders get on the scoresheet for us

hpefully we can score 3 without reply and see King in action in the second half
February 26, 2011 at 14:35

Great to see King on the bench.. Him, Berba and Gibson on, later in the game?

Colbert says:
Glad to see Javier starting. I just pray that Valencia returns as soon as possible. Our midfield with the exception of Nani and sometimes Giggs & Scholes, is piss poor at the moment. We really need Valencia’s power and energy. I know that he’s a winger but I think his return will help the central midfielders too. They will have more passing options and he will help out a lot defensively.
February 26, 2011 at 14:36
SirAlex'sSon says:
Lets get an early goal please.
February 26, 2011 at 14:38
Stephen says:
Fergie really needs to give Wes a run, O’Shea at right back is never inspiring and bar Rafa he is certainly our best option.
February 26, 2011 at 14:38
parryheid says:
Been waiting for this particular Fortnight to kick off.Run in to the 19th.Title starts today and we Will perform,So lets ease in to it with a couple of first half goals please lads allow me to relax.Go get em United.
February 26, 2011 at 14:39
Stephen says:
Also with our midfield so thin why not give Pogba a chance even from the bench?
February 26, 2011 at 14:40
RJ says:
I hope King gets a run out!
February 26, 2011 at 14:41

Off to see the match. Lets get the 3 points in the bag. Hope to come back here still cheerful. Come on you fucking Reds!!!
February 26, 2011 at 14:42
Raizzen says:
NST2

Maybe its because we’ve got another important match and Rafael might just be useful to torment Chelsea’s flank ?

Thats a good bet dont u think ? With games like Wigan you can’t never be too sure what kind of knocks and falls would befallen on our players.

Am I the only one who thinks that that Andy Townsend looks like a kiddie fiddler. I don’t mean a circus act where he dresses up like the lead guitarist from ACDC but with more of a hoe down/ Dolly Parton twist. I mean someone who drives around in an over powered white BMW saloon with a dirty grin on his face and a 12 year old in the passenger seat.
February 26, 2011 at 14:46
tryder91 says:
Why the fuck is there no rafael or berbatov. Fine.. play hernandez, i agree with that, but dont start rooney! Apart from the overhead kick he’s been absolute shit. Imagine being berba, top scorer, our best player of the season probably and hes on the bench again. I would be pissed. But then again, im not Fergie so i’m probably wrong lol
February 26, 2011 at 14:47

How are you mate? Townsend is a fucking joke of a pundit, gets my blood boiling every time I watch him, what an idiot. To think he gets paid to spout shit is laughable!

Right I am off to down the beers and enjoy the game, catch you reds after the match……

People looking for Sopcast streams, please look no further than the above link.

Two streams in particular are awesome – RUS NTV+ Football [RU] and Bestsportslive1. Both are non-english streams but with HD quality and no lag whatsoever. Anyways, who wants to listen to cunts like Townsend anyway. It is better to listen to commentary you don’t understand than to listen to cunts in British Football commentary.

Finally looked like an attack that we are capable off. Great combination between Rooney and Nani and cool finish from Chicarito.

Also, Fuck you VDS! How the fuck are we going to replace you?

Hello my name is Michael Carrick. I’m just going to let all the Wigan players run past me, making me more suited to a league 2.

Strange that we have effectively 3 full backs on the bench… could argue that Brown is a centre half and Fabio could be played out on the wing, but they’ve all played the vast majority of games as full backs.

This Carrick bashing is getting fucking tedious. Arent watching the game but according to Scott and others he is doing well. Is it fashionable to bash him REGARDLESS of how he plays?

We really do need another goal here, not too comfortable watching this.

King Eric

Too right you are.. I’ll admit I have been quick to jump on Carrick’s case when he’s had a bad game… but that doesn’t mean I won’t praise him when he is playing well…. I was talking earlier about what had happened to the scholes carrick partnership and I think your seeing the benefits of it today….

Carrick with Scholes or Anderson in a two man midfield has worked so far this season and with Scholes in previous seasons.
February 26, 2011 at 15:50

the viva ronaldo seems to be sung a bit much this season….need to sing for Nani/Berba/Chicha more.

rooney is getting pretty close to a yellow card. Needs to calm down. we cannot afford to have him lost for the next two games…..
February 26, 2011 at 15:52

Not pleased to see Rooney cursing at Fergie. Wouldn’t be shocked if they sold him this summer but Fergie seems to believe in him.
February 26, 2011 at 15:52
nani4ever says:
nani is the man, our best player, just needs to play the extra pass every now an then to be the best player in the world
February 26, 2011 at 15:52
willierednut says:
Maybe a bit lucky to be in front. I’d consider taking Rooney off. He’s seems more interested in fighting, than playing football. Hernandez took his goal well. The lads alive, every time the ball goes in the box. Vidic has been immense. One thing I’ll say, when we play with any tempo, wigan can’t cope with us. Need the second goal.
February 26, 2011 at 15:52
Xyth says:
Apart from the goal, our performance is rubbish. Lads need to wake up. We could have been chasing this game! Nani, again for every positive move that he makes, he has 3-4 other frustrating selfish ones.

Why do we keep playing us in trouble by passing the ball backward towards our keeper so much. One day this will cost us dear.

I hope the hairdryer is at full speed now!!!!!
February 26, 2011 at 15:53
NomadBaku says:
@thedonmassawe
totally agree with you. that’s why fletcher doesn’t even have a chance to prove himself. almost every attack is made on the left wing, where nani makes 1 assist, 1 shot at crossbar, and 2 bad decisions to shoot instead of passing
February 26, 2011 at 15:53
Ryandunny says:
Fecking stream went in the middle of first half… so I switched to another one which was in spanish… but the picture started to stall but the commentary was still there… so for the last ten minutes I listened to the game…in spanish :S ha
February 26, 2011 at 15:54
Mickjk says:
What is with Rooney? He’s utter muck these days! There’s times I’m wishing we’d take our time up front and other times I’d wish the midfield would hurry the feck up. Lets hope we can go out for a nice comfortable second with another goal or two. Something positive to take into our next fixture.
February 26, 2011 at 15:54
Balaji Sivaraman says:
Carrick has been fine this game. In fact, our overall performance so far has been much better compared to recent away games. We are keeping the ball better, finding more attacking outlets, making very good off-the-ball runs and creating more chances because of that.

thedonmassawe, Yeah, Nani should pass more. But whenever he is anywhere near the goal, he becomes a one-way horse, the only thing on his mind is goal. Anyways, I cannot complain much since that is his only flaw. But if he fixes that, then it will be frightening to see the kind of player he will become.

Also, Smalling’s composure and reading the game is frightening at this age. He really shouldn’t have that kind of vision at this age. Amazing to think of what he will become if he goes on at this rate.

February 26, 2011 at 15:58
Colbert says:
Have to wonder what the fuck Rooney is doing. Why elbow someone entirely unmotivated so early in the match? Bizarre. Should have been sent off, and anyone else would have been. England darlings like him, Lampard & Gerrard routinely get away with stuff like that.
February 26, 2011 at 15:59
Ryandunny says:
Last season we used to be able to punt the ball to Rooney and even if he had the whole defense on him he would keep the ball and spray it Nani or Valencia and launch a attack before getting in the box and finishing it off….

Now he can’t even control it? Fair play he’s still working hard and he had a part to play in our goal and Nani’s shot off the post but wtf is wrong with him?
February 26, 2011 at 16:01
willierednut says:
Nani’s been more productive than rooney Costas. Still frustrating, I’ll agree, but he seems to be the only threat at times.
February 26, 2011 at 16:02
Mahesh says:
Wayne Rooney is infuriating – If that elbow was against a United player I would have called for a red, so there’s not reason why it wouldn’t have been reasonable if Rooney had been sent off! and for WHAT!! He’s showing terrible touch, he can’t beat ONE man, I don’t know what’s wrong with this fella. Getting him off and Berbatov on might be a good idea, and give Chicho more support.
February 26, 2011 at 16:03
Xyth says:
There they go again, ABU media cunts led by Townsend calling for Rooney to be baned for that clash with McCarthy!

smartalex says:
For those that are unable to watch, it is a good game. Wigan are typically adventurous, and are our tactics are working well. No United player had a bad first half, in fact the ‘away’ season looks a lot better, all of a sudden.

Carrick has been tremendous, only bettered by Van der Sar, who is a brick wall / genius.

For those who thought that Wigan shouldn’t make Edwin work, try researching the opposition before we play them.

February 26, 2011 at 16:07
Clem says:
VDS keeping us in the game so far. Rooney might get banned for 3 games for that elbow on McCarthy. He was lucky to stay on the pitch. Stupid and needless. I think this is the type of game where Berba could benefit/ Hopefully we see him soon
February 26, 2011 at 16:07
gerkeo says:
obvious to everyone rooney is not interested, hes failing to pass the ball 10 yards, hes looking nailed on only to get a red card today
February 26, 2011 at 16:07
nani4ever says:
rooney’s decline is because he not taking on is defender when he has the ball, and he’s not being aggressive enough in front of goal and most importantly he seems to have forget how to use is left foot he’s always trying to get the ball on is right an always so predictable.

Balaji Sivaraman says:
@UNITED4life, We all know that the centre midfield has its problems. But there is no need to highlight it after every match. Especially this one where we are performing better than past away games. It gets really boring when the same complaints are levelled after each game.

Until SAF decides to do something in the summer, this is the midfield you are stuck with unfortunately, whatever your opinion on the matter.

Difference between our seniors and the rest – Shot of Bebe, Giggs and Obertan. Giggs has both eyes fixated on the pitch at every moment. Bebe is looking down on his mobile and texting. Obertan is switching songs on his Ipod or Mobile (whatever that is).

Now you understand why Giggs is still frightening at 37 and why Bebe and Obertan are nowhere near that level at their age.

We’ll never have a more natural goalscorer than Chicharito. And whatever idiotic decision Nani makes I don’t think i’ll get angry any more, looking at how productive he’s been.

Let’s get one more fellas.

February 26, 2011 at 16:34

You can see why SAF would pick Rooney and Chicarito in the same team. Their combination seems to be working well when it clicks.

Good direct goal by us which kills off the game. Now, I can breathe easy for the next 20 mins.
February 26, 2011 at 16:35

why hasnt clattenburg booked hernandez and sent him off for totally pissing him off for scoring a 2nd

February 26, 2011 at 16:35

I’m very sure that Chicharito is the best natural goalscorer in the premier league. A first class finisher.
February 26, 2011 at 16:35
Balaji Sivaraman says:
@Dicko, Well, that is questionable isn’t it? Would you say the best bargain is Chicarito or Smalling?

Anyways, both of them once again prove why SAF is the best there is at what he does.

Why sub the guy who’s 15 mins to grab
his hat trick instead of the considerably less productive strike partner. Great assist though. But how long is fergie gonna continue allowing him to try and play into form at the behest of strikers who seemingly score each time they play.

Finally, we get to see a good performance from our lads and it has come at the right time of the season. Not that this one hasn’t been without its minor flaws, but then what performance hasn’t.

If we can take the confidence from this one and hand some to the rent boys and the scousers, I would be a happy person.

February 26, 2011 at 16:47

And, Fabio gets his first (I think). Great cross from Fletch who seems to be really finding his feet recently.

So, yeah, as I said, that should shut some people up after the uproar in the immediate aftermath of the Marseille performance. However, Wigan has always been a happy hunting ground for us, so there is no need to get carried away.

But if that doesn’t get the lads geed up for the most important week of the season, then nothing will.

If the so-called worst United team in history is Top of the League in March 4 points clear, has the best home and away record in the League, has the most no. of goals, has the 3rd best defense in the league and has the best goal difference, I would like to see what happens when we add to it and these players mature and we become one of the best United teams in history. Frightening really. Makes me a happy person when I look ahead to next season no matter what happens in this one.

Decent away performance Chicharito delivers again. It could have been different if VDS didn’t make those crucial saves. We are four up and the next two games are super crucial. I thought that our overall performance was much better, but Wigan seemed not to be in game at all. Good passing is nice but that’s not the way to play against us. All around pressing is what hurts us.

Great win!!!

Darren Gibson has been improving the past 2 games. Yes, he isn’t that “young” anymore but I think if he works his socks off he may have a chance. He shows glimpses of a well executed pass now and then. I did read an article saying he’s no Scholes successor and I have to agree but I think if he improves his game, he can be depended to make things happen.

If I was Fergie I would have a quiet word with Nani and tell him once and for all that Football is a team sport. His selfishness could and may cost us dearly. The goal that their rent boy scored was marginally offside that on another day may have been given.

Let’s hope that this victory gives the lads confidence for even better performance against the rent boys.

Regarding Gibbo..Still not decided on him but he does have an eye for defence splitting passes..Great ball to berba for the 3rd goal..Think he will be asked to start against either Chelsea or L’pool depending on scholesy’s fitness..
February 26, 2011 at 17:10
KingOfStretfordEnd says:
Chicharito is a dream.

Based on form, I’d like him to start against Chelsea with Berba too. While Rooney may seem lackluster he’s good when he’s up front. His touches and passes are an atrocity only when he starts going deep.

Berba’s definitely starting at the bridge with Rooney. It’s an absolute luxury to be able to have Chicharito on the bench.

Its almost disgusting that townsend. if he could he would try to get Rooney charged for that incident in the first half.
February 26, 2011 at 17:11

nani4eva I think your name illustrates just how big a cunt you are, while he has been extremely good this year (and he’s still been bad on occasion) for the last two or three years he’s been as frustrating as anyone, yet you name yourself after him os one might think you might give a player a few breaks here and there but no you cant give berbs any slack at all, what a tool you are!!!

@dela

Not a total waste of skin is he? I said it after the Crawley game, but 1-2 of those player might perform better if they play with the first team. Gibson and Obertan I think fall in that category.

@thedonmassawe

I think he will too. I don’t expect him to score a lot over the next 2 games, but he is still valuable to the team, by holding up play and controlling the tempo.

It isn’t everytime that we win with a big scoreline away from home that too after an away Champions League game. Clearly showing that our lads are really concentrating, and that’s a great start to a tough week.

And I’m 100% sure that Rooney’s incident is gonna be brought up to the FA. And it’ll be a travesty that Pat’s incident went unnoticed uh?

@Mattbw7

I don’t know if it’s intentional, he sort of elbowed the fella. It looked like Rooney was frustrated and took it out but there wasnt any incident between the two to lead up to that-so that’s why I don’t know if it’s intentional. If it was, I reckon it could have been a red. But if this is gonna be brought to the FA then the challenge on Pat should too, that was a more clear atrocity.
February 26, 2011 at 17:31

nana4eva if scholes ot nani had supplied that glorious pass you would have been cumming in your pants, will Gibbo make it who knows but not everyone is Giggs or Rooney and starts at 17, I know Ian Wright was a striker but go and have a look at what age he was when he started his league career and what age he was when he established himself as 1st team regular. Im not saying this means gibbo’s future is secured it just illustrates that not everyone is a top player in thier teens you dimwitted numb nuts

Very happy with the end result! Credits to Wigan for trying to play, and playing so well at times that only a 40 year old flying dutchman could save us

You prefer it if we keep looking at how many games Gibson has played in, when he came off, when he came on and how many points we dropped in that time period again? Because that proved to be a dead end for you. Just drop it.

nani4ever – Fuck off you are annoying me now. And many others with your childish remarks. You werent even born in 99 I bet . Get over fucking judas Tevez as well. Like someone said its beacuse of Berbatov we are top.

Costas says:
@King Eric

Enjoying performances like today’s means that they have to admit they were wrong. I don’t care. I allowed the Gibson and Carrick hysteria twice get to me. To each their own. In the end, and thank fuck for that, Fergie knows best.

thats your perogative nana4eva but tell me did gibbo or berba play badly today and didnt your initial comment pre-judge them you knob

Costas – Yeah mate but some of us are man enough to admit when we are wrong. I did with Nani.

Anyway thats it for me. Our lass in Manchester all weekend and don’t have her blackberry and leaving work now.

See you later.

costas@ what games were you watching gibson played well against Marseille, if that’s what you think then I’m spot on about mediocrity, this is not about glory hunting this is about continued excellence and playing at an high for which the greatest club in the world has always aspired to be

YorYor says:
Carrick, very very good game, as good as he was in THAT game against Roma. Could’ve got a free pass into goal had Fletcher spotted him just inside the box when the keeper spilled Nani’s shot.

Nani might have been frustrating at times, but definitely a far cry from what Rooney was doing for the first 60 minutes.

Those worrying about the midfield… worry about the GK spot first. Had Wigan put those 2 chances away first, the end result might have been very very different.

Utd4life says:
@nani4ever..to expect every Utd team to play like the 99 or 07 team is a bit too much..That 99 team is one of a kind..It will take time for us to reach that level but I’m happy with the way we are playing..Even with the fixtures and injuries fucking us up we are still top of the league, through to the FA cup Q/F and if our home form continues the way it has been we should be through to the CL Q/F..So chill and just enjoy the ride..

February 26, 2011 at 18:00
nani4ever says:
they played ok and great unselfishness by berbatov i don’t hate the guy but he dosn’ t fit our system, in order to accommodate him we have to play a three man midfield because we cant play a two man midfield against a strong opposition, but he as improved vastly this season, but as for gibson i see nothing to look forward to no upside but a bit part squad player taking of space for the youngster.
February 26, 2011 at 18:01
willierednut says:
Nani4ever – You need to chill mate. What do expect, when the team has won 4 0 away from home and you’re complaining about certain players? A pat on the back? We all know the midfield needs strengthening mate. Be happy with result, for today at least.
February 26, 2011 at 18:01
YorYor says:
Oh, and those wondering what’s wrong with the boss for starting JOS and Chicharito, there’s a term called squad rotation. And he has just shown you why he is the one on the helms and not just another armchair manager. If you haven’t realised, it’s a tough 10 days ahead. We need all the freshness and squad depth we can.

Xyth says:
Yet another reassuring display from Smalling. Pretty son, Vidic-Smalling will be our first choice centre back pairing.

It is ashame he did not play against the Wolves few weeks ago from the beginning of the match. I have no doubt that we would have not lost that match!

mattbw7 says:
nana4eva how the fuck you work out that the sole reason Tevez left is and for 30 pieces of silver is beyond me and is just you attempting to re write history, fact is Tevez didnt like being part of a squad whereas the berbs has been dropped for a couple of important games of late to suit Fergies tactical approach and he’s just go on with it and if you want to see fluid counter attacking play just look at berbas goal against Blackburn where he won a tackle as blackburn attacked played the ball to evra took it back passed to nani who crossed for errrrrmm oh yes berbatov to score, fuck you twonk
February 26, 2011 at 18:04
Utd4life says:
@yoryor..spot on about squad rotation mate..With the fixtures coming so thick and fast you need to use every member of your squad..If you constantly keep playing your best starting 11 then you are eventually going to get fucked..Just like Chelsea found out this season..
February 26, 2011 at 18:07
willierednut says:
Who the fucks complaining about Hernandez starting? lol. He’s given the boss a big problem, now. His two goals were top class.

BerbaGod says:
Costas – classic!

nani4ever..
You are entitled to your opinion, but its just the way you are putting them forward:
“Chicharitoooo, yes! No more Berba for the rest of the season.. horaay!”
Thats childish and when you consider how Berba has helped us this season, it leaves me dumbfounded.

nani4eva I think your name illustrates just how big a cunt you are, while he has been extremely good this year (and he’s still been bad on occasion) for the last two or three years he’s been as frustrating as anyone, yet you name yourself after him os one might think you might give a player a few breaks here and there but no you cant give berbs any slack at all, what a tool you are!!!

Mattbw7 has really identified a core flaw in nani4eva.

nani4eva has chosen a name that implies undying love and an unquestioning acceptance,
and yet he doesn’t afford Manchester United that quality.

Therefore, he is an imposter, pretending to love Nani, when it is really acceptance he seeks.
But he hates having to admit that he’s needy, so he claims ‘ever-loving’ qualities while expecting us to earn his respect before he will be respectful.

KingOfStretfordEnd says:
I can’t believe there’s an entire post game show dedicated to the Rooney incident. The dumb host asks for United fans to call in and tell honestly that it should be a red. Tell honestly that it was a red? How is that an opinion when your forcing your views on people?

I need townsend off the tv now.

nani4ever is just nani4ever no one else he is just an over passionate supporter of the greatest club in the world, we are a club that is so illustrious and so rich in history, with probably the greatest manager of all time and we shouldn’t be settling for mediocrity, i know pogba and tunnicliffe are only seventeen but age is just a number and that’s around the same age giggsy and the great generation made there debut, i rather see the youngster blood and tried rather than a player with no upside.

Yeah mate. I admitted the same for Smalling after my initial fears. I am actually glad everytime a United lad proves me wrong.

@Willie

I think you might be on to something there. He has to be one of those two.

Raizzen says:
Whats with the players bashing ? Sell him. Sell them. Carrick sucks. JOS sucks bla bla bla it gets tiring. At the end of the day Fergie retain those players and in return they repay his faith. Seen too much of the tragedy that you plastic fans are.

I’ve said it far too many times and am not ashamed to say it again – If Fergie were to listen to the likes of you – we would’ve missed Nani’s creativity and Berba’s brilliance this season.

So fuck off you. Whoever you are.

@saad and Ryandunny

Tell me about it fellas. VDS is gonna be a mega miss, and I can’t come to terms with it. The fact that he’s retiring hasn’t even sunk in, and here he goes making these fantastic saves, and it makes my situation even worse.

Paul Parker says:
Very pleasing to see the Lads TURN UP today now I can swan off this weekend in peace. Hernandez looked the part again today, seems a good lad but tbh he’d be justified in wondering why the fuck he doesn’t start more. Proven Goalscorer. Good to see Gibson contribute to another goal as well. Based on current form alone he’s as entitled to a place in our midfield as Fletcher or Carrick. With the biggest games coming up its a shame theres a distinctly Anderson shaped hole in our midfield. But overall the whole team did well after midweek’s exploits, just hope Rooney shows more gumption at the Bridge… cos Gibs/Berb tap in aside, I wasn’t really convinced. And smile a bit more ffs your at United where would you rather be Son?

As for Nani, funny thing is… how many games has he TURNED in our favour by cutting onto his left and scoring outside or just inside the box? You all love when it beats the Kepper no? Nani is justified to ‘take the ball on himself’ he’s our biggest threat after Berbatov ffs – and you can’t score if you dont shoot – so the popular chorus of ‘Nani pass more’ is getting a tad bit redundant fellas. Better sing him a fucking song first aye? Lol. He’s assisted more goals than anyone in the EPL and already has more goals than most strikers, so in my book he can shoot till he clicks fucking empty. Top player still getting better. For the skeptics, be patient, sit back, and enjoy the Nani show, cos half of you lot wanted him sold anyway. More to the point im sure Alec is telling him to shoot more hence his goal tally this season, so be grateful, I doubt we would be top without him this year. Having said that…

WELL DONE AWAY FROM HOME LADS!!! NOW BRING ON THE RENT BOYS!!!

nani4ever says:
mattbw7@ every utd supported an even those who hate us knows that with the tevez/rooney/ronaldo combination we would have probably won 3 champions league, and for tevez to be in the most potent trio combination one season, and then all of a sudden to become a squad player the next season when he was part of a premier league and champions league squad winning team. but i admit there is more than one side to a story Sir Alex had the whole season to sign him but it was clear to every one that Sir Alex favored berbatov over him, all of that is past history now so i still support our players but it is just frustrating to see how we are playing this season especially away from home.

I can’t seem to make up my mind on whom United should get to replace VDS (I really dont like that nick, sounds like an unfortunate disease!).

Neuer…got the rep (Germany No. 1, not too old, not too young)
De Gea…got the talent but a bit too young
Stekelenberg…got the experience (Holland No. 1 and from the same academy as VDS)
Reina…..ooooooooohhh (dare i say anything about that!)
Lloris…sorry, i’m not a fan of this guy
Akinfeev…diamond in the rough???
Buffon…I must be smoking something!
Gordon…not big enough profile but another diamond in the rough?
Mandanda…I like what I saw
Enyeama…great in the WC but a BIG question mark

______

not sure who you are Lad, but from the responses you’ve received on here anyone would think you was Stalin.

You opinion is valid, but think the reason Alec is sticking with what he’s got rather than blooding in new players… is due to his shrewdness. Why commit to change NOW when the season is just getting warmed up? For all we know, in the next couple of games Carrick could rediscover his defence splitting form of a few seasons ago, while Fletcher could return to last seasons best. Rooney rediscovered his form to win us 3 vital points, for example. Also, how can Alec fairly decide who stays, who goes, and who moves into the first team…. if he makes a premature decision in February? He needs as long as possible to judge his team. Playing for time and not being forced to make poor judgements is all part and parcel of team selection.

Wait till Summer you’ll see what I mean – basically we shouldn’t be throwing in teenagers to win our 19th, that could fuck up their future development if we didn’t regain the title. Look at Rafa last season, he could have played more but Alec managed his development beautifully. He looks first team this year. So yeah mate, I agree young players should be brought in but only when the time is right. If we win anything this year, it has to be with the first team, Alec has to show that faith to the Established players first and foremost. But your entitled to your opinion to want more young players in the team, Obviously.

mattbw7 says:
Well we didnt have tevez last year you twat and our away performances where good, admittedly the injury to Rooney fucked our season cos Berbs didnt take the bull by the horns (and if you mention the blackburn game dont forget he put a chance on a plate for Tony V and he missed it, win as a team, lose as a team), this year berbs has played out of his skin at times so you cant mix our away form with just berbatov not playing well or tevez leaving. Fact is SAF wanted Tevez to stay but the greedy little cunt wanted to much coin than we where prepared to pay him and his fucking knuckle dragging entourage pissed off everyone around OT and by the way his contribution wasnt as great as you suggest, sure he ran round a fucking lot and won the hearts of a lot of fans but his end product didnt deserve it, he just couldnt handle being a squad player, we took the fat little twat from West Ham and gave him a platform and he fooked off to city (not to liverpool cos he didnt want to upset the UTD fans lol). And if City do finish in the top four they will cast their net over the top talent of world football and he will be a fucking squad player again, even mancini’s said he doesnt expect him to be there next season and you can bet your bottom dollar he wont be going back to argentina to be near his daughters.

So fuck off nana4eva and come back when you know summat

I just dont bother anymore, talksport and ITV are the worst – both pathetic.

The London press are all over Spurs and Arsenal, nobody mentions we have
had a 25 point turnover with Chelsea in 4 months.

We are the top goal scorers in the Prenier league, 4 more that the Arse and 20 odd
more than the ‘great entertainers’ Spurs !!!!!!
