David de Gea has told United Review that he likes ‘This is the one’ by The Stone Roses, the song which is played ahead of kick-off at Old Trafford. The song was introduced at the request of Gary Neville when he was captain.
“I like metal and rock bands like Avenged Sevenfold and Metallica,” he said. “When I put it on in the dressing room, everyone moans! Most of the other players are into hip-hop. I also love This Is The One, the song we come out to at Old Trafford – it gives me a big lift for the game.”
De Gea’s best mates at the club are Javier Hernandez and Antonio Valencia who really helped him settle in when he first joined the club.
“I get on with all the lads but I guess Chicharito and Antonio Valencia most of all,” he added. “They were brilliant when I first arrived, translating for me and answering any questions I had. Javier is a real livewire off the field – he lifts every room he walks into and his enthusiasm is infectious.”

So do I Dave.
Me too David.
Lil pea the livewire, that’s not surprising his smile is infectious
lol I hope we can kick on from here now go on a long winning streak, and for the love of God stay clear of injuries!!
Hmmm.. you can keep your Avenged Sevenfold. But glad he likes our unofficial anthem!
Old Metillica or new Metallica? Huge difference.
Hes too young to know what old Metallica is lol.
@ Gorse Hill Red
If there’s anyone out there who likes their new stuff more than their old stuff, I’d be seriously worried about them.
slowly but surely starting see why the Boss signed him! been our best player over the last 5-6 games and he is starting to command his area now even more and barking orders at senior players like Rio and Pat! his agility has to be the best in the league!
Even new Metallica is better than Hip hop though, but i hope it is old
I wonder if he’s into any of the Metallica band members’ recent solo projects…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54mm_BG3e8o
Really experimental stuff.
@Stephen
I guarantee you’re not listening to the right kind of hip hop mate.
Always loved de Gea. Was thinking about getting his jersey for the next season, actually! And now that he speaks of his fondness for Avenged Sevenfold, I surely will! Great taste of music, IMHO.
Frankly, I never liked any Metallica
True that kanshelskis, true that.
@Dakduivel
On what? Hip-hop? Or ‘The Table’?
de gea is shining
old metallica is awesome. we should be pumping that out more at old trafford
redevil_83
Imagine the team walking out to Enter Sandman. Would put the fear of God into the oppo!
@kanshelkis
On hiphop. How can metal/rock or any genre for that matter be ‘better’ than hiphop (or the other way around)? It’s just a matter of taste. Luckily, I enjoy a lot of genres.
@Dakduivel
Exactly.
Obviously Metallica, for example, is better than 50 Cent.
But then Lupe Fiasco, for example, is better than Guns’n'Roses. IMO
I suspect people generally have a negative view of hip-hop because of overexposure to rubbish blingy materialistc insipid R’n'B, rather than proper intelligent hip-hop music, of which there is plenty.
Btw, speaking of ‘This is the One’, how ropey was Ian’s rendition of it at Gaz’s testimonial?! Doesn’t exactly fill me with hope for the reunion…
\m/ MetallicA \m/
Exactly, although I can’t really agree with the examples you stated since I know to little of Guns ‘n Roses or Metallica to judge their music. But I’m sure you’re right.
Legend
-ary taste in music.
This kid can become such a legend..
same here David. i prefer rock musics than hip hop any day.
DDG has really become a bit street smart in the premiership, he is using his bad experience and he is allot more sure of himself when to collect the ball, when to time his catches and he is starting to know the nuts and bolts of not just the premiership, but united is well. He as gone through the storm and coming out the other end as one of the best keepers in the premiership
anyone else think, accept for the generation of passing the torch in the 90s, that if united retain their title this year it would have been like the back to back title defence of 95/96 96/97 where they won the premiership but at the same time we have gone through a few badly broken noses to get there. Like in 1996 newcastle 5 0 united, soton 6 3 united, united 2 3 derby 2011 united 1 6 shitty, newcastle 3 0 united, united 2 3 blackburn, it seems very similar in the way we lost games
I also think wolves is going to be some pain in the ass fixture, the good thing is the away record is very good, especially the approach we always go into
I really like this kid and like him even more now he loves the Roses anthem.
Right off to eat a huge slice of paul pogba humble pie for dinner! Great news.
Not really a Metalicca fan more prog rock,Yes,Glass Hammer etc. Each to our own.
What’s up you slimy ball licking fuckers? Ha ha
Just got into an internet cafe to check my mail and thought I would drop a post. Been really frustrating just reading the blog without being able to post…
Some great rants from the other thread by gaz and bobbycharlie….
All is good here and over the moon at being top, the bitters are crumbling and I agree with most who said we should just take it one game at a time….
See you all in a few days… ta ta
On Thursday they should definatly walk out to tupacs hail merry the first line would scare bilbao “I ain’t a killer but don’t push me revenge is the sweetest joy next to getting pussy” haa they won’t touch the ball after that loool
A girl consumed by fire…
Gorse Hill Red – Old please
@AntiScouser
Been waiting for you to re-appear!
Any thoughts on Young’s recent performances?
*baited breath*
De gea is brimming with confidence now and i think he’s finally feeling settled in the team. His first taste of premier league football was a shock for him even though he knew what to expect before joining.
Like he once said, sitting on the bench and studying the game of english football has helped in terms of stepping his game up. His commanding of the 18 yard box has improved, his shot stopping and reaction saves is up there with the very best in the game (even though he’s only just started his career), His distribution and ability on the ball is evident, he’s starting to organise the defence more now (guessing his english must be improving slightly), his concentration has improved too because keeping your mind focused even when you’re hardly doing much in a game is important in football.
After saying all that, fans have to realise he’s not the finished article yet and is still learning the game and hopefully, united will be where he fulfills that potential.
P.S – david, i’m not a fan of anything metallica either.
@kanchelskis
I’ve been busy lately, but I’ve still managed to see the games. A. Young? I’ve decided to suspend judgement on him until next season. Maybe he needs a title under his belt to flourish.
I’ve heard Ian sing at the testimonial and it was awful. Most of their live stuff was never that good, but I still listen to the Stone Roses music, twenty years on, and they sound incredibly original and beautiful.
@AntiScouser
Haha. Glad to hear your stance on his has softened somewhat.
Good lad, great taste in music, can’t go wrong with Metallica and throw in a little AC/DC – rocking
DeGea is coming along well. One could say he cost us about 3-5 points give or take, but that isn’t saying another keeper wouldn’t have cost us more. We always knew we were going to be breaking in a new keeper. Stepping into the gloves at United is always going to be a big ask.
Every keeper will come into periods of scrutiny. I personally think the lad has it all, including some serious mental strength. All said an done, I wonder if any could have done better. Never know that one will we. So I choose to get behind David de Gea. WBA put it into perspective. Foster???? De Gea for me !
Pogba ?? Sky and others are saying he “agreed” a contract, but club has said nothing. If true, then the inclusion at WBA was well done.
http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/7589297/
Az Alkmaar top of the table as well, congrats Jozy Altidore who’s helped them this season with 10 league goals to go along with 4 Europa goals. Good to see another American flourishing in european football.
Aveneged Sevenfold fan? good taste lad, now I like De Gea even more none of this hip hop crap…
@JC
I said it earlier to someone else and I’ll say it again. If you think hip hop is crap, you’ve been listening to the wrong hip hop.
Great tune.
DDG is a metalhead? Yes. I bet he would love Steel Nation. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHTG1s5HRd8
Listen David, you keep playing stormers mate and you can listen to Alvin and the Chipmunks in the dressing room prior to kick off for all I care.
Hell of a run he’s on. One of the best games I’ve seen a United keeper play between the sticks last week. Only reason we’ve half a hope in hell of progressing in Europe.
Good on ya Lad, top kid, glad he’s Red!
Love our stand in club captain Patrice, love him to death, but can we not manage to get the lad some adoral to stay switched on and wide awake for 90 minutes? Seemed Young did more defending yesterday. I’m not here to slag, just saying, it’s a worrying trend.
Let’s all laugh at City by the way! Couldn’t help but notice Gareth “Pants” Barry throwing his toys out the pram yesterday after getting subbed. Yeah, you’re shit, get on with it ffs. Go chat up Stuart and ‘Arry to keep your place with England. We’ll just keep Mr. Carrick here safe and sound with us.
Can’t make this stuff up. Oh, and the lineswoman who flagged Richards offside on the potential tying goal? Vere away lads, my proposal’s already been lobbied and I’m awaiting confirmation of our marital status. She’s rough on the eyes but I can’t remember wanting to kiss a lass so badly, good on ya sweet heart, behind every good man they say….
Good lad, David. Can’t go wrong with some Metallica. Fucking love this guy, brilliant keeper too.
What a fucking birthday gift, United go top of the league! Can’t get enough of saying that. My prediction is coming good, we’ll have it won before May!
I missed yesterday’s game and was wondering where I could see highlights. Tried footytube and footyroom but all they have is the shitty 2-3 minute ones. I’m talking about the full 10-20 minute highlights.

btw the city v/s swansea highlights and analysis are also worth a look.. especially just after swansea scored!
aaah, how the “high and mighty” cry once they realise they’re back..

watched the game,
last week i was critical of Ashley Young going to ground far too easily..
how well he was against WBA..
hope he will hold his ground like this..
he is stunning form, I hope him and Nani will torment Bilbao, wing play is vital and without doubt these 2 are the most creative apart from Rooney..
a lot depends on these..
plus i honestly think Scholesy will start the midweek game..he should be

NOTE:
Only the leading five countries – Spain, Italy, Germany, France and England – in the UEFA rankings have two as their multiplier. This is to emphasise the difference in (international) performance level between clubs from those countries and those of other nations.
A player cannot play first in a summer league (e.g. England) and then in a winter league (e.g. France) and combine the points totals for each season.
Both RVP (8) and Rooney (7) have scored more goals in the Premier League in 2012 than Liverpool…!

howdy pal?
Good to see Vesseli on the bench..
on the other hand, i hope Tunni will develop fast
he is a gem
Media reporting that Pogba has signed a new deal with us..
anything official?
Legend’s debut read
It is 2 March 1991, and a chilly winter Saturday at Old Trafford.
With Manchester United trailing Everton 2-0 in a Division One battle, Alex Ferguson decided to bring on a skinny, dark-haired winger to change the game around.
Remember this fresh-faced youngster?
It wasn’t Lee Sharpe, or even Russell Beardsmore. It was a former Manchester City schoolboy who would go on to become the most decorated player in United’s history.
Although he was unable to change the course of that game, more than 12 years on, it is easy to forget the impact the 17-year-old Ryan Giggs had on the domestic game.
This was pre-Premiership, pre-fancy foreign signings, pre-Champions League. English football was in the doldrums.
Into this moribund scene burst a player who, with one breathtaking swerving run, promised more excitement than a month of Clayton Blackmores and Mike Phelans.
“He was such a talent,” remembers Giggs’ United team-mate Paul Parker.
“When I arrived at United in July 1991, the club was already full of talk about this young winger. Alex Ferguson mentioned him to me when I signed, while Steve Bruce was already raving about him.
“It was Ryan’s pace that was so special. If you weren’t on his team in training matches, you were in trouble. Everyone at United likened him to George Best, but Ryan was so much quicker than Best.
“If you were marking him, you just had to let him go. You didn’t bother chasing him because you didn’t want to embarrass yourself.
“I was reasonably quick, but I never wanted to test myself against him. You might try to trip him up, but he’d get his own back at you.”
Impossible to handle
Giggs initially struggled to get into a side that already boasted the speedy wing talents of Lee Sharpe and Andrei Kanchelskis.
“He would try certain things and you’d see the boss tearing his hair out and going mad at him,” says Parker. “But Ryan would just shrug his shoulders and say, ‘Well maybe you’re right, but I wanted to do that’.
“Ryan had the ability to make something happen, even when you gave him the ball in tight areas.
“It was frustrating at times, because sometimes you’d want him to keep it and he’d try something difficult.
12 years on, Giggs has won more honours than any United player in history
“But his pace was a revelation to British football at that time. It was what made the United side so dangerous.
“People just couldn’t handle Ryan. If you found him in space, managed to isolate one defender against him, you knew Ryan would create something.
“We would break so fast that it would sometimes catch us defenders out.
“You would clear your lines and look up to see the ball on the edge of their box, thinking to yourself, ‘We’d better score here, because if it breaks down there’s a massive gap in the middle’.
“It was great for me and Denis Irwin as full-backs, because any wingers playing against us would spend all their time tracking back defensively against our wingers. We’d hardly have anything to do.”
Giggs found several players in the United team who were willing to guide him through those first few seasons.
Bryan Robson recommended he sign up with Harry Swales, the agent he himself had inherited from Kevin Keegan, and Ferguson did the rest.
“The boss brought Ryan through from a troubled childhood and always saw him as one of his own,” says Parker.
“Ryan got very close to Paul Ince, and Incey took him under his wing. Ryan would also socialise quite a lot with Lee Sharpe. But he was always his own man and made his own decisions.
“He didn’t go out looking for publicity. Apart from doing a few promotional things for his boot company, he was content to be known as Giggs the footballer.
“We used to socialise quite a lot as a team, and when you went into places there would always be a lot of attention, with people going in particular for Ryan.
“But he’d often go off by himself into a corner, happy to be the local boy. And we’d all look out for him – as soon as you noticed anything getting silly, we’d move on somewhere else.
“Ryan didn’t want all the stuff that went with the fame. As soon as there was any hint of trouble, he would be off. He was very single-minded.”
so pogba’s back in the reserve side aswell? so looks like he will definetly be signing.. like someone (forgive me i forget) mentioned that it will be announced on tuesday.. looks like they were spot on!
Great stats Sandeep!
Good luck to the reserves.
is it me or united still have some tough games ahead, especially the next 3. Wolves and rovers away we only got 1 point out of those 3 last year, and fulham can be a sticky game, for me if united can win the next 3 games we could just could open up a gap in the premiership and you never know we could close the GD, what do you guys think
those 2 I mean
a good read on our season and mentality..
http://www.whatispsychology.biz/manchester-city-advantage-united
Cheers Sandeep, enjoyed that.
Dave I like you sunshine as you have put the haters to bed.
Hey guy’s, 1878 nice stats.
Wolfie great heads up on Pogba.
I love old Metal , Zep, Black Sabath, AC/DC, Scorpions ect.
DDG is going to be at OT for some time.
Evans looking good at tilting the field with his ball controlling runs from the back and finding the right pass to the attacking players.
TC looked 2x’s as good then his last run out!!!!
Tony V and Nani coming back soon.
Blood in the water, a thrashing or just 3 points at the Wolves and 4 points up with Shity having a tough week answering the same fucking questions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GO ROONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Giggs12 he is our CUNT!!! WHAT A CUNT!!!!!! hehe
FITB,
its good point you make,
I have observed over the years, the away grounds that contain ” park” in the name, like, Ewood park, Villa park, Goodison park etc have not been good hunting grounds for us..
Fulham, on their day they can rip anyone at home..
and we had a tough game at Ewood last time, a cracking goal by them assisted by our poor defense, only Chicharito to the rescue by winning a penalty, and boy, Rooney got nerves!!
That memories are still fresh, also the heroics of valencia to chase and win the ball and then send it across the back post for chciharito to head home the winner against Toffees…it was at OT though..
yeah we shouldnt be going over board, lets take it game by game and most importantly we need to away from injuries..
hoping for Valenciaz early return..
and god, how badly we have missed Vida!!
Paul Pogba starts for the Stiffs also Ryan Tunnicliffe and Fabio
Blackburn away
Willie, feedemscraps, Zibster,
Cheers pals…
Zibster,
you remember the link up and co ordination between Rooney and Chicha last season in title run in..
Guess what, its coming back..
Rooney’s last 4 goals are – 2 penalties and 2 assisted by Chicharito..
its all starting to come back all over again..
Chicharito is vital to this run-in..
I dont mind we playing
Nani——-Scholesy/Carrick____Young”
Chicha____Rooney___Danny..
the good news is valencia will be back to training this week…:)
Pogba and Tunni in midfield? That’s your future right there!
Lil Pea and Rooney play well together, you add Tony V crosses to this and when Tony plays Scholes finds him all the time to start the attack.
Nice Willie, any links for the KIDS?
Zibbie
Haha did you see that on the Rooney thread
Yes I did, hehe. I get it no worries mate. I think I have said something very close in the past. He fucked up and will never win everyone back, I get that. But this lad in 20 years Man Utd fans will look back and say LEGEND!
He is just 26.
As I said yesterday – after 14 from the last 14 games (total) and now at 20 league goals, a real question now is can Rooney catch the “Son of Cedars”™ (25) in league goals??
An artist rendition of a 46 year old Wazza would be funny.
Zibbie, try this,
firstrowsports.
eu
then CTRL +F -= Man Utd and click on the link..
or drop me your email and i will send you the ditto link directly..
by the way,
where the fuck is Cedars? hope all is well
The Son of Cedras!!! hahahahaha RVP when he is healthy is good for a goal a game. As a striker RVP has few peers. I know Rooney plays striker, I have always just thought of him as a footballer. As he said when SAF talks of 40, wins and trophies is what he wants. He would rather score 25 goals and trophies VS 40 goals and no trophies.
Been doing some under cover observations on the dippers and the bitters forums today.
Conclusions: HILLARIOUS, F****ING HILLARIOUS!
The dippers have given up, and the bitters are so scared, so very scared.
The crying bitter will give his EXCLUSIVE interview in the MEN tomorrow. OMG…
http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Crying-Manchester-City-fan-s-Twitter-fightback-article877300.html
Thanks 1878!
http://www.coolsportz.de/stream1.php
Looking forward to seeing Pogba and Tunni partnered again. Top pairing in our youth cup campaign last year.
Mike. Hello mate. Spot on about I am the Resurrection. Belting tune. Still love Mani’s rumbling bass on I wanna be adored though. Oasis and the Gallagher’s aren’t in the same league as Brown and co. Top top band.
Had to laugh at some bitters saying Swansea are just a “fighting team”. Arrogant bastards. They are a good possession side who outplayed those cunts yesterday. Once again it would appear Fergies rotation is paying dividends. Silva looks fucked. Nasri is the shit over rated mincing cunt I knew he was. Oh but they missed Kompany. Fuck off. Try having Vida out for six months. If the players are like the fans then its all over as the bastards have thrown the towel in. One comment I saw on blue moon was priceless. “A masterstroke by Mancini to go second so we are doing the chasing and breathing down the rags necks“. Oh I bet Fergie is shitting it you no mark cunts. Mancini under estimates sides and therein lies the problem.
Sandeep1878 – if united were at their very best, where the squad was on top of their game I would not say this and that, but united have been the all conquering united sides of the past, so we cannot take any of these sides lightly. But united collect 9 points from 3 games, we could have breathing space
Zibbie
Im the same mate, i have forgotten and forgiven he is a truly wonderful player and played out of his skin since.
Best stone roses son for me is Sally Cinamon…..fucking great song
King Eric good to see you, or I guess read you.
My I say, what a club, what a team and what a gaffer.
This blog and posters like yourself has taught me to be a proper Man Utd fan, not to panic expect points to be dropped. Don’t panic, nothing is a birth right. In the end SAF will win a trophy every 35 games or so. hehehehe
Piss off Zibbie, king Eric’s post are shite! Mine are well better
How we doing Neil are you ok mate?
King Eric
Oasis shouldn’t be mentioned in the same breath as The Roses… Quality band ruined by beurocratic record company bollocks! I wanna be adored is a great album opener and resurrection has the best instrumental EVER! Haha, Bertie fucking magoos, not heard from any of my bitter blue mates today! This will be my all time favourite title win! If the linesman at the Newcastle game wasn’t as bent as Uri Gellers spoons we’d be 3 points clear right now!!
And may I add, not even SAF is bigger then Man Utd. gulp.
hahahahah Giggs12 you would be lumped into that group.
” Quality band ruined by beurocratic record company bollocks ”
Fuck me I thought i was on the rolling stone blog then, i should have drank what you did in the Gorse mate!
The Flying Donkeys, I like that name and Bradley a US nat player has found a home their.
Zibbie
Too late dude my feelings are hurt and I never forgive and forget…..oh wait a minute i may have contradicted myself
there.
haha we all do mate!
King Eric – they call swansea a fighting team, because the name swansea to them they look down in snobbery terms, just because how small swansea is as a club and the city itself. And the irony is, they are only second because some idiot decided to give them a mountain of cash
High Cedars, a cyber cafe, so what was on the menu? I will take 12 volts to my left nipple and a BLT.
Giggs12
Yeah, it was that vodka in the skull!!! 5 and half years I had to wait for my stone roses fix cos of those fuckers at Silvertone!!
i have been reading RoM from the start of the season. I have posted a few times. I been impressed with most posters on here. Standing by Utd even when we looked poor. Yes our midfield can do with added strength, yes our young GK lacks experience, yes our young def players are nieve. but all season we have shown heart, passion and guts.
To see and hear city fans already giving up after one set back fills me with pride. Knowing united fight even when we are poor shows what it means to all of us…
So smile reds, no matter what happens it could always be worse, you could be a city fan! lmao
I was there for Lee Martins winner… Pissed out my brains drinking rum from a bottle hid in a huge foam glad hand!! Well said fella.
Down down, you bring me down, I hear you knocking at my door and I can’t sleep at night!
Fools Gold is often overlooked for best Stone Roses track. Blinding tune!
Fletcher looks great on the sideline as a gaffer.
Half time 0-0
Mike
You are slowly turning into Cedars with your alcohol consumptionm by the way where is the Lebonese shandy drinking, women dominated, streaking animal anyways?
Willie
“Down down, you bring me down, I hear you knocking at my door and I can’t sleep at night!” that’s what the bitters will be thinking!!!
Fools Gold was the best selling indie single of the year when it was released, put them into mainstream spotlight. I remember watching top of the pops and all my mates slated me for loving it. Meanwhile they were discussing the musical brilliance of New Kids on the fucking block!!! Losers!!!
@ Mikekelly
Nice stealthy drinking buddy. I will always remember the goal not only for the finish, but for Neil Webbs wonder pass! I think Ian Wrights hatred on United started after that final. The 3 – 3 game was amazing, but to win the must have really pissed him off!
Mikey – I hope so! Shoot you down is another favourite of mine. Then again, their debut album was full of top songs!
Oh every single one of us we fucking hate city, we fucking hate City, we fucking hate City…………
Giggs12
Cedars!!! He’d have passed out before the lid came off the bottle!!!
LMW
I missed the first game so was made up we got a replay! Dont remember much of the game, did a bottle of Bacardi on the coach on the way up!! The goal is about my only recollection!!
Lee Martins winner – I have given united plenty of stick, especially failing to add much needed freshness to the engine room, which infact hurt our european chances. I will defend them, but on certain times they could not be defended. I actually stuck up for them against shitty, that united have better options upfront who have been used better. Shitty have allot of problems in certain area’s, and in the next 3 games could shape the title race as we know it
FITB
Could shape English footballs landscape because if City don’t win it this year I can see a lot of people fucking off and with sheik rattle and roles purse strings being tightened by FFP and the emptyhad not bringing in the coin those fuck heads will just become another one of those flash in the pans who people will look back on saying, who were those fuckers who played in baby blue that has a load of fucking wankers plating for them with some Richard Madely scarf wearing twat bag as their manager!!
@fergie is the boss
I am no saint and can be frustrated as much as the next man. I have even been known to verbally abuse Nani when he picks the wrong option.
But when the dust has settled all is forgiven and its on the the next game, In which he cracks one in from 20 yards and I feel a mug for ever doubting the portugese magician,
All I know is that United under fergie wont be allowed to give up. 20 or not, its all good….
I have been fortunate to support a team that has won so much in my life, some football fans go thier whole lives never seeing a title win. To have seen the 1999 treble or the first title with pally’s bulldozer of a freekick, makes me feel special.
Ok enough before I start to cry… oh wait, that happend in wales yesterday!
Beautiful Mike ha ha!
FUCKIN HATE CITY, WE FUCKIN HATE CITY… EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US, FUCKING HATE CITY…….
” The one ” It’s okay I guess , the hardest thing in the world , is my preference and a personal problem.
However as I am feeling a touch romantic jaysus this sounds like desert island disc’s .I will go for Donny Osmond’s puppy love or Steps , Say you’ll be mine.

Fantastic post Sandeep @ 18. 20.
DDG, he eats donuts and listens to heavy metal. Love it. Great to see him settle in and do well, I can definately see him as the heir to VDS now, however, Lindegraad is great too, though I now rate him a notch below DDG as DDG can really do the spectacular which sets him apart from most keeper. Hope we keep both. And Amos is not too bad either. Great GK options.
Two goals in a minute! RVP aka Cedars son gets another!
The son of Cedars does it again!
Yeah but the Library keeps quiet until he scores.
Howay the Lads.
Great goal by Ben Arfa though!
Lee Martins winner – well said, my sentiments exactly. How honoured are we and oh how we’ll miss it and reminisce about it when Sir Alex retires.
God, I hate Alan Pardew and the way he celebrates. That twirl he does is so annoying. Good to see Arsenal reply in kind. Great finish by RVP. Again. Arsenal have to be the definition of a one man team. Take out RVP from Arsenal and they will be like a car without a steering wheel.
We did miss a trick a with Alex oxlade – chamberlain, i know I took the piss about the double barreled name at the time.He looks the real deal, was it £ 10 Million again a snip , when you consider we paid £ 8.2 million for Bebe.
Judgements eh.
0-1 to United reserves
Utd4life
I mentioned that a while back… His spin and punch!! Has HR got his colouring book in his hand too!!
redscot
You cant compare to Bebe Fergie just got that one wrong, we only paid the same amount for Chicarito as well dont forget.
I dont think Chamberlain is all that, watch his pace he aint that fast as he is bulking up to much, it was like Mikah Richards when he was young.
Mikekelly.. “coloring book in his hand”.. LOL.. They might as well dress him up as a ballerina and a wand to go with it. Smug twat.
Obi wan kanobi is having a pretty good game so far. Pity he couldn’t make it at Utd.
Ox chose the Gunners, Jones chose Man Utd. You do not get them all.
The Bebe thing is old thing and has nothing to do with nothing.
@ Giggs 12 Gerrard Erm I think you are incorrect on the price United paid for Bebe.
Can you read a football account it was £ 8. 2 million.
I also think if you care to read Ed Barker at United Rant repeated this, he knows a bit more than you or I on Uniteds finances. Thanks. lol
@ Zibbie thanks for that football insight and your obvious knowledge on the players you are watching.
I only commented as most fair minded impartial supporters do Alex oxlade – Chamberlain is class.
Sorry if that does not fit in your thinking. lol
Jaysus the simplest of remarks upsets the natives, awhhhhh diddums.
Cya lads keep it United with reality.

Judgements eh.
You asked for comments, I gave one. If you want to be snide, and question SAF purchases go right the fuck ahead.
Not so simple of a remark Red, you have just basically called me a fool?
Why do people keep bringing on the Bebe deal? Only SAF and a few others will know whether the deal was legal or not. But I would much rather pay 8.2mil for an unproven Portuguese kid than pay 35mil for a pony tailed donkey like Carroll or 50mil for a tranny.
Snide yes I can be snide,keep yer knickers on.
I gave you mine and you tried to ridicule.I replied with facts.
Tricky to understand?
I don’t get the Bebe Chamberlain comparison? Am I missing something?
@ Mike maybe because you are not reading?
I compared the cost of Chamberlain to Bebe a mere £1.8 Million difference, does that sorta help?
I missed it as well no harm Red well all shall move on. Go Man Utd!
1-0 nice to watch the lads play.
I love this blog I truly do, Scott the Red will agree when I join in i take no prisioners.
United is my life.
I have fought and defeated better than most of you with persistance. lol
@ Mike thanks Man.
Be cool it’ all opinions. Just mines is always right! lmao
Cya
I love this one:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/mar/12/manchester-city-carlos-tevez
RedScot, I am not an advisory to be defeated. ???????????
People love picking on bebe. it was a gamble that hasn’t paid off yet and he was sent on loan. Managers have to take a gamble and Fergie could have got it wrong with javier hernandez just like he would have got it right with bebe or whoever else hasn’t lived up to expectations.
Banging on about fees paid (No actual confirmation) is irrelevant, get over it.
??????You are Zibbie?????? Argue with- yourself.
I win…….easy as.
RedScot
Thank you. I was struggling there. So we were supposed to sign Chamberlain but we decided not to and bought Bebe instead in order to save £1.8 million! Gee whizz how fucking stupid is that? I wonder why we didn’t just spend the extra £1.8m and sign Chamberlain, we’re so fucking useless!!
RedScot no, I do not argue with myself, like all men I play with myself.
Pogba looked good in Man Utd kit today.
@ Mike sorry you are just basically fick. Arsenal signed Chamberlain a year after United throw £ 8.2 million down the shitter for Bebe.
Get the time lines mate.
Bebe was a con, United could have bought him a few months prior for £150 thousand.
Smell a RAT?
@ Zibbie ” I play with myself” Hmmmm say no more!
By selling Ravel SAF might have saved Pogba and Fryers. Some times things on a team can be infectious like a troubled mind. OR the Man Utd winning ways.
Looks like Obi wan kanobi’s decision making still hasn’t improved.
Right lads , honestly I must go it was fantastic sharing with you.
Laters, maybe take- off the red tinted’s eh
Looks like Obi wan kanobi’s decision making still hasn’t improved.
hahaha Spot fucking on!!!
RedScott
Wow… So what you’re saying is we could have sold Bebe and bought Chamberlain a year later if we could have found another £1.8m and then won the Champions League.
Hello Smartalex where ever you may be. In some artisan expression of the land you call home. Zulu paradise.
hahaha Mike, hahahah you go man.
Mikekelly12 – the few signings we missed a trick on was the 4 big ones, alonzo in 2004, scneijder in 2007, modric in 2008 and sanchez say in 2009. Say we signed those 4, the shape of the midfield could have been very different indeed in terms of how we would have faired in europe
i take no prisioners.
Thanks for that, I has a vision of a dark basement with a room with no window and a 40 watt bulb with a 50 lbs bag of dog food, a 50 gallon barrel of water and a empty 50 gallon barrel. I takes the new prisoner no time at all to figure out, he shits in the empty barrel.
@ Mike Kelly Man where did I mention the champions league.?
I was simply using a comparison of the money spent. £ 1. 8 Million.
I am not blaming Sir Alex all I am trying and failing to explain properly he is exactly the United profile of the Glazer model for signings, the right age (18 ) probable England senior player in the Euro’s in the summer. A respectable price not an unknown from a 3 rd tier league in Portugal.
I will stick to my guns, there is a rat somewhere with Bebe, which we will never likely discover.
How’s he doing at Beskitas by the way…….injured.
I wish the lad no harm, however if you think he is United class……brainwashed.
Red tinted specs?
Redscot
I was just chatting with you why are you always a Dick. Read my comment back I was not having a go merely stating my opinion. Fuck me you have a chip on your shoulder.
Zibbie… How is it state side pal? Speaking of which, where’s statesideaussie, not heard from him in a while or whether he got that job or not. Hope you’re well fella.
@ Zibbie deal with the arguement about football, lay off personal insults, thats my speciality.
Although I love to debate football and United.
@ Giggs Gerrard …. Dick head…..
You are a Numptie an Arse wipe!
Ok you got me?
To add I was comparing Hernandez price with Chamberlain.
Lmao…. Its brilliant.
As I said stir up the natives the City fans will be loving this.
I give in.
Honest you wont listen to reason.
Toodles lads.
United didn’t miss a trick with oxo cube. Fergie spoke with his dad, but he wanted to play for Arsenal. That’s the truth lads!
RedScott
Dont think I ever said he is United class?
scot-man put the bottle down buddy. this is a blog not a mud wrestling arena, calm down with the abuse and send that over due love letter to bebe.
Redscot
Last post proves my point you have proven yourself to be a numpty. Never had a problem with you and my first post was discussing with you but you same incapable.
Again go back and read my reply I don’t understand your chip and self perception you are some blogging vigilante. I only said Hernandez was more a comparison and I don’t rate Chamberlain yet.
Redscot. Mate, I don’t think any Utd fan would ever say that Bebe is class. He did score a couple of goals so he was not an utter waste of money. If he didn’t get injured at Besiktas then the lad could have actually progressed. If your point is that there was something fishy in the Bebe deal then you could be right. Why or how would SAF would ever pay so much for a player he hasn’t even seen play? For the record, I still don’t believe that we paid 8.2mil for Bebe unless someone shows me the actual contract and not some number quoted by some “source”.
Giggs12
Get your glasses off ass wipe!
@ Willie Money talks , if United had increased Arsenal’s offer, Southampton would have sold him to United. Nice to see you RedNut. Hope Belfast is cool.
You can also , see the difference in Chamberlain and Bebe or even Javier Hernandez.
Any how I will go at sign in to the Arse blog, it celebrated its 10 years birthday just a few days ago.
Wind up a few Gooners.
My work here is done.
I never fought a death match, I did wrestle growing up and was 192-7 with some 170+ pins. I worked concrete construction growing up and during collage I worked on a bridge crew in the Chicago area. On these huge Interstate projects. I would come home to Dubuque on most weekends. The guys would tell me about on Friday nights they would set up fights for cash to pass the time. I went to one and saw it was wild 100 drunken construction worker betting on fights. The winner got like $1200.00 in 1981 that was alot of money. So next Friday I won $1300.00 and the only rules were no biting eye gauge or fish hooks to the mouth. Over the next 3 summers I had some 15 fights and one them all. The longest one was maybe 90 seconds.
As willie would say, RedScot making new friends again!
Scot-man was obviously there when this imaginary £8.2million contract was drawn for a player from the third tier of the portuguese league.
Mike
I know mate I’m still trying to read where you think Bebe is united class you mug.
@ Costas you know its a skill I work at .Hope Athens is ( well ok) My Greek stats man .
Samuel
He was probably there in the bottom of a can of carling special brew strapped to a couple of flying pigs!
Mikekelly12 , nice I love where I live. The Upper Mississippi valley awakes for spring. I saw Stateside say he watched the game at a Hotel, it was slow In Sacramento where is he looking for work? Aussie land?
Don’t forget mike you are fick
Cya Lads all views and subjective.
Go and write a blog on Paul Pogba, seems the flavour of the month for hits and know – fuck alls. 
Seriously I must fly
WillieRedNut
United didn’t miss a trick with oxo cube. Fergie spoke with his dad, but he wanted to play for Arsenal. That’s the truth lads!
Simple as.
Willie Rocks!
Giggs12
You ever been to a game you snappy dresser you.
Giggs
Fick cunt! Gutted I bought the Bebe away shirt now, got it all wrong!!
Zibbie
Sounds amazing! Yeah, he was back in Oz. Got to a final interview last time I heard.
MikeKelly – With scot-man, anything is possible mate. Haha. We missed out on chamberlain, he chose arsenal for the “Style”, so clearly it wasn’t a money motivated move to arsenal, what else can united do?.
James
Haha king Eric and his analysis of my clobber, I was trying to look like Danny dyer in football factory but wound up looking like a clay pigeon shooter.
James
Has he fuck, he’s an ass wipe who hasn’t even completed his Euro 96 pannini sticker album yet!!
Costas – Ha ha. That was a while ago!
Cheers Zibster!
Mike awesome GO STATESIDE GO!!!!!!!!! California is fucked, here in the Mid West there are jobs.
Samuel
Fergie chatted with his dad buy Wenger offered him a pack of sweets how could he resist that cheeky smile.
City crybaby speaks out!
http://menmedia.co.uk/manchestereveningnews/news/s/1488060_crying-manchester-city-fan-i-wasnt-in-tears-i-was-just-frustrated
@RedScot
Everything’s fine, thanks. Hope you are well too. And less sober, lol.
@willie
He’s still the master at it.
Giggs12
Haha… Clay pigeon shooter..Funny, that made me chuckle!
Kebab hehe I always read RedScot and have a laugh at his ramblings, today I dipped my toes in his stream of a booze induced consciousnesses. The water was warm so I took a dip.
I believe we did miss a trick with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
We signed Bebe who also turned out to be a great buy. So who are we to complain?
I personally think United staff moved to slowly and Chambo was not top priority.
I refuse to believe a player would Arsenal over Man United. Based on career choice
Seriously those that have, have done for pathetic reasons.
Ramsey; United sent Nev, Arsenal Sent Wenger. “They wanted me more”
Oxlade ; United didn’t guarentee game-time, Arsenal chosen because of “beautiful football”. Said Daddy Oxlade.
Their loss, especially Ravel Morrison….top east london wasteman.
M19ke
He did mate thats quite a good analysis. Snappy Dresser indeed
Giggs12 – i guess oxlade can resist the charms of the man From Govan (should have offered more minty chewing gums)…
Smatalex the Gunnes just scored, what was the bet you had? 2nd place for them?
WOW clicked on that manchester rag link, christ the bitters are still using the success tag against united to put themselves on the pedestal
Go Zibbie Go Zibbie.
Right, I’m off to thumb through Uniteds finances from the last 10 years, see if I can’t find some evidence where we could have done better in the transfer market! Good night ass wipes.
I see we just got hit with a drive-by from Sachu.. er Fannyboi I mean RedScot… what a numpty. How was the game Giggs12, was the home support any better this week?
He wanted to play for Arsenal! Didn’t matter what United offered.
J.C
The crowd were pretty good M19ke told me he even heard South Stand singing. Not sure I believe him though.
K stand Barmy Army.
Night M19ke. Heard you like a good Thumbing.
JC
Alright mate how’s tricks? The atmosphere was immense when we beard Swansea scored. It was rocking pal.
Mind I can sorta imagine James and Mike fisting each other!
Jammie bastards that Arsenal team? Heard they were celebrating like they won the CL!
Beard Swansea?
Fuzzy wuzzy was a woman!
Red Scot
Ha Ha. Having a go at me now are we. Theres no limit to your mind numbing insults. Problem is mate me and M19ke do our fisting at Old Trafford. You keep reading wikki and supping your white lightning.
@ Willie huh uh, but they are resilant. The best run club ( Financially ) in the Premier league, jusyt no cups in the cabinet.
Mind most of the cash was made from selling Highbury, and building houses/ flats.
I want Arsenal to fail , like most, but they are a neat team to watch, just lack a midfield , like Barcelona have.
Great keeper the Pole as well like our young Spaniard de Gea.
@ James keep thumbing? .
Basically this…….
Good to hear, I wish Fox Soccer Channel showed the games more like the UEFA channels do with the halftime pitch camera and alot more of the ambient crowd noise (or lack thereof) mixed in with the commentary. On FSC it’s really hard to hear what, when or if anyone if singing other than at the times everyone expects such as goal celebrations.
Yawn.
@ James I would not be proud of your thumbing at that dead stadium now, you are the problem.
You buy into the shit you are provided with, did you manage to get to AJAX or Benfica?
I think not, but you keep buying, the Glazer keep mugging you.
Any excuse for the likes of you not to bother going. Plastic fucking armchair know it all.
I as i said no- mark, and i mean it.
Tell me James what United have wasted since the Glazer hijacked United, and annual net investment in players during the last 6 years?
See James you can’t deal with the points provided. Shame
*** Yawn **** WOW that’s intelligent, debate
Buy into the shit we are provided…..
Don’t they call that support?
I support my team. glazers are boring Mr Plastic. No sorry Mr Wikki. you come on here spoiling for trouble you insult fellow reds who go home and away. Classy bloke
Ha Ha Well done James, can’t answer my questions, I think my United plastic friend , you and your thumbing Giggs12 Gerrard friend tried that before.
United investment since the Glazer hijacked United £ 10. 6 Million per year.
Money wasted James 1/2 a billion pounds on servicing debt.
You can think what you want, I want the best for Manchester United and I fight for this.
How cool will it be to have Cleverly and Pogba as our future CM pairing.
With Tunni and Ando as back up.
Looking at it that way our future MF is looking damn good. Also Scholes and Carrick are still there to bring the young ones through. Exciting!
I admit I can’t as I don’t have time to trawl the internet finding out facts and figures. I run my own buisness and I’m more interested in how thats doing than what the Glazers are doing. I go to games chant, sing and show support for the team and SAF. You however claim to be a Utd fan but never go ,thats what our fans and rival fans call Plastics. So how am I a Plastic?
No substance if you do fuck all about it Redscot words are cheap.
I had a season ticket before the Glazers and will have one after them. You have done neither Glazer excuse kop out.
Oh an Glazers have raped £500 mn out of our Club – that is unforgivable, we will never get that back – can you imagine what we could have done with that money….
Ofcourse, Glazers don’t stop me supporting my Club, I just hold my nose and pay the price. It’s bittersweet but they have done some positive things – built commercial angle and not interfered with SAF, but then we have been winning everything and they know F-all about footie.
However, no fans should fall out over that scum. They are here, it’s a reality, fuk it. They are not worth arguing over. One day they will piss off.
Temper Giggs 12 Gerrard you don’t know what games I go to do you?
Nor do we know you have a season ticket? Prove it ?
You tried and your stupid mate James tried to ridicule me, with the ‘ white- lightening ‘ stuff.
I provided the only accurate information on the forum, as I have provided previously on the ‘ why we hate City ‘ posts on Rom.
Dont fight me, I fight our challengers.
It’s more fun. Innit
NBI
We can’t mate and the day we get rid the day we rejoice. I for one will not stop supporting my team whilst it happens. I would except a Barron time of no trophies for that to happen but I would still stand in K singing my nuts off whilst redscot is playing with his.
@ NBI Red Onion spot on mate, can you imagine?
Closer to Barcelona?
Erm I think not!
@ Giggs12 Gerrard as you sit in your official United kit right?
Hip hop rulezzzzzz
@ Mara well said, so does the ‘ highland twist ‘.
Redscot
Temper? I’m chilled pal you said in your own post will not buy into the shit provided. Listen mate your bored of me I’m bored of you let’s both bore off and save the other readers.
NBI
Red Scot comes on spoiling for an arguement. He insults fans who have never said a bad word against him.
Redscot
Never owned a kit as an adult pal the only thing Glazers get from me is my ticket money
NBI Red Onion says:
Real and Barca spent 500 mils on players…and we spent it for buying club. If we spent that money on players…they could have 11 Messi s on the field and we would destroy them. And with really small investments we are in all finals in the last years. But with this middle we cant more than this. This is more than max what SAF is doing. We spent about 60 mils for few players…and Barca spent it just for Ibra which they sold for more than half of that price.
Ha Ha arguement on the net? Don’t make me laugh.
I provided the facts you and your ‘ virtual reality friends’ don’t cut it with a wide eyed Scots lad.
Deal with the facts drop the ‘ insults’ I just more able trust me, its a Glesga thing.
Mara obviously fell asleep at the end of that comment.
Red Scot
Ha Ha. Giggs12 Stupid Mate Runs his own buisness. You’re an Alkie hmm who’s the stupid one.
Last one prove I have a season ticket ok next game you go to we can have a pint and you can see it. King Eric, James and Mike have all had a beer on matchday. No animosity mate when do you want to go the next game I can even get you a ticket if you don’t know how to get one. I sort out many a red.
Barcelona are bankrupt there will be a leveling out, as they adjust to the FFP rules, Madrid with that mad cunt in charge will win the league, backed by the Spanish government , and hopefully tip up at Chelsea or Arsenal mibbes even the Spuds as twichy Arry does not know to stick or twist
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2114063/Manchester-United-fear-Anderson-injured-season.html?
Good news bad news. Ando could be out for the season with a hamstring injury. Pogba is expected to sign a new deal this week. Just to be clear, the good news isn’t Ando’s injury!
@ Giggs, James, Red Scott, Mara
Guys, we are top of the league..!!!!! Suarez publically screwed Liverpool saying he wants out. Lets all love each other and hate City, that we can agree on. A pissing contest about who is the better fan just get’s everybody wet (no offence ladies!).
Glazers know where they stand with the fans and if they do anything more to the Club they know they will hear about it, it is a business to them, they know there is a fine line re. fans and I think the pressure told, the green and gold scarves at games made it clear – love United, hate Glazers – public humiliation – however, at least the debt repayments are a bit lower now and the cash flow is a bit better….No 20 will go in the record books, Glazers will just be forgotten. Thank God we have a good youth policy!
Also Spanish tax is going to level the playing field as before they paid lower taxes. Also the Euro will hopefully weaken against the pound and that will help us attract more players. Plus global warming has finally come to Manchester.
You couldn’t make it up. A MANCHESTER UNITED fan who won’t go the games because of the Glazers. Its FC you should follow then Red Scot. Infact you could always go away. No? Unbelievable.
Great post NbI Red onion, lets not fight each other I said this all along there are bigger issues.
£ 50 Million in the fluid capital account sound ok to you. One year ago it was what?
Love United hate the Glazer
Furthermore there are lads I go with in their 40s who have been going since the 70s. They may not like the Glazers but it doesn’t stop them missing a single game home or away and in Europe. What a pathetic excuse for being an armchair fan.
NBI
No problems here mate, I get on with fellow reds. Like I said above though at 23:04.
The main problem I had with the GG scarves was you’d see them being worn by fans who had full baskets in the Megastore. ?????? Anyway catch you later. 20
Later James!
@ King Eric, no I wont, go to Old Trafford the fucking thing is dead, it the working lad is priced out.
The away fans are much more vocal, now I hate Roy for what he said about our team.
He was a United legend, but well out of order, as previously he looks for ‘ I am the man’ on United.
Funny I never hear Gary Neville a true United lion, dissing the club.
I have values Neil…. I know who is screwing United.
Don’t get me wrong well chuffed to be at the pinnacle of the premiership.
Sadly remind me how the Champions league games went away, I win in the European competitions?
United moving forward Neil?
We will get stuffed in Bilbao ( I hope not) lost twice this season to Granada a promoted team, plus Real Betis?
United campaigns in Spain away from home played 19 won 2.
Mara. Eleven Messis. Yeah because there are eleven messi s out there. Fuck me. I get fucking sick of folk coming on here slagging this that and the other yet have never stepped foot in OT or an away ground to support the team. Without us supporters there would have been no treble, no four out of five league titles recently. No moscow European Cup. The fucking nerve.
@ King Eric yeah a armchair, like 300 million fans world wide.
Get over yourself!
Suffice to say without the aforementioned cups half the cunts wouldn’t even be United fans.
Again the United alckie provides the detail, odd that eh? pmsl
@ King Eric well we can’t be all old cunts right .
Lively thread this? Cedars will be having a quiet chuckle to himself.
@ Willie huh , yeah I joined in.
Oh, ice cream eyes!
@Willie
working on my Pogba post 
Red Scot. What has Europe or owt got to do with it. So we should only go the games if we are winning eh? Ha. No offence pal but last time we were written off in 05 you were about ten so your memory won’t be that clear on the matter. Just like the media you are taking Fergies closer to Barca comments as being for this season pal. How on earth was that gonna happen. Anyway we will no doubt win our domestic league. Will Barca? No guarantees in Europe either as I think Mourinho will do the double.
RedScot – Stop winding people up.
@ King Eric I think also Neil United will win the Premiership for the 20th, however the measurement of great clubs surely is big ears and that trophy, which as you call me a kid and others have tried to insult me as a ‘plastic’ is that trophy.
United will net around a mere £ 5.00 million on getting to Bucharest .
The loss through the Glazer investment of not doing so in the team, to stay and a decent run in the Champions league close to £ 40. 00 Million knocked off Uniteds war chest.
Neil i love all the players at United and fight for them all, in many forums.
Its what we have is what we have.
NBI. Alright pal. It isn’t about being a better fan. Its more to do with RedScot rearing his head once in a bluemoon (no pun intended) and just looking for a fight. He is obsessed with accounts and figures and so on. Personally all I care about is the shirts on the field.
@Willie you know i am United mad, but well against the parasites.
RedScot. Fair enough pal. Europe has been a horror show and no mistake and you will get called names and you do the same and look for a reaction. I didn’t call you a kid. I know for a fact you are about 19 or so as I remember your first post on here when you said you wanted to learn as much as possible. I was merely saying that back in 05 you WOULD have been about 12. Ok not ten!
Anyone got a brush? My hairs very Lionel…
@ King Eric – I hear you man, just way to caught up right now in thinking about how a MF of Cleverly, Pogba, Ando, Carrick, Scholes and Tunni will do next term.
My mum’s neighbours are City fans and every time I go up to visit her they stick a paper with City logo, No. 1, Points and Goal Difference on it plus 6-1. It get’s my goat and I choke on my tea but I have remained quiet while my eyes water…Now this weekend, will be different…cannot wait – I will show some class though, I am trying to think of how I will rub their faces in it without stooping to their level. My sister has suggested putting our mum’s dog on their front lawn in a United shirt and hoping he does the business – can’t see that going down to well with my old dear though!
Still hoping to catch all you guys in April, working abroad periodically but will let you know when popping up for a game.
@ the Blue Moon is rising, yeah but eclpised by a shadow, Manchester United.
Neil before you fire off mate read a few threads back, on this forum ‘ this is how it feel’s to be City XX’.
Because I don’t post all the time, does this make less of a United supporter.
Sabbotaged?
Oh and Bilbao DO raise their game. They were minutes away from beating Barca. Its arrogant to pass them off as shit. They are a damn good outfit and I knew we would have problems.
Old adage – you cannot cut off your nose to spite your face – Glazers are stuck on our tits, but we need our tits.
RedScot. No it doesn’t. I wasn’t saying it does. I just said , and you have to agree, you DO go on the wind up! What do you mean sabotaged?
NBI. Yes mate let us know when you can make a game.
Last orders now!
King Eric – I do think the glazers have hurt united spending money for a couple of summers, but if we win the title this season we cannot, and I mean cannot allow the engine room as it is currently for next season. We cannot expect to get a full season out of scholes yet again, so it is a question of really adding more depth to the engine room, because anderson clearly f\ailed to grasp his chance when ginger paul went on a 6 month retirement
FITB – if we keep Pogba, Cleverly fit, plus Carrick, Scholes and Ando, Ryan as back up – who I agree the jury is still out on and he has had a lot of injuries so I am still not sure what his settled form will be – we will then have a nice blend of youth and experience to bed in. It’s always a bit of an ugly transition – look at the back 4 – and will take time, but a good pre-season and a fit team should help.
I can’t see SAF buying a MF if Pogba stays, as he said last time what message would that send to the current MF youth. However, who knows?
I think SAF will strengthen possibly on the wings – we need another winger as back up on the left, possibly a striker to replace Berbatov if Macaeda does not look the business.
Alternately, if there is a real gem in the market who knows – also don’t forget we have Bebe back.
Has Kiko ever looked the business apart from one moment of magic? Wasted talent.
Fergie should recall him from QPR. Waste of time going there.
@ Willie – that Sampadoria spell seems to have killed his confidence before then he looked like he would make it, sharp around the box with confidence and he also has a good passing game, great link up with Welbeck – hope he hasn’t mentally done a Torres, SAF saw him as one for the future; but you are right, he is wasting time at QPR. Maybe one more loan spell else one more season with reserves.
DDG is way ahead of reina. I really hope he gets onto e Spanish euro team
DDG is way ahead of reina. I really hope he gets onto e Spanish euro team. It wld b a gd experience for him. Amazing prospect we have in our team.
NBI Red Onion – I thought he was more likely to make it than Danny a few years back. Between his spell in Italy, and now at QPR, his career has come to a full stop. Really disappointed for the lad. If you look at Clevs and Tunni for example? They got game time, they needed. Kiko never received the same time on the pitch. With the talent we’ve got up front, you wonder if he’ll ever get his chance at United.
WillieRedNut @ 1:17
First, do you ever sleep ?
Second, after getting found guilty of homophobic tweets, I don’t think that UTD can stand by this guy. See ya ! Back to Roma or Lazio or some other Italian outfit where his “baggage” won’t be disconcerting or considered to be a problem.
Do you? Night!
I didn’t make this up:

@ Denton – dude if we are going to not have players because of homophobic comments we will likely have no team – guys make gay jokes all the time, its not because they hate gay people, let’s not get too PC – the kid was just stupidly saying something players say all the time on a public form. He has learnt his lesson. No one died.
Hey someone has to guard this forum at night until @ Sandeep wakes up for the morning shift.
If Fletch was healthy, no need for any help in the MF, Pogba, Tunni, Petucci and Jones would develop and fight for the right to party as Man Utd 1st choice MF anlong with Tom C. Wow these lads have Giggs, Scholes, Carrick and Fletch to show them the way.
During the WBA game in the 89th min did you see Rooney make that lung busting run. His heart and love for the game is awesome.
Yeah Zib, I was so disappointed for him that the cross from Young? was it was just past him and then Carrick didn’t want to give it right to him in space and instead had a weak shot blocked. He deserved to get his hattrick after that run.
Willie spot on with Kiko a few years back he looked a better bet then Welbeck, now Dan is becoming the man. Dan has a chance to be one of the worlds top 5 strikers for like an 8 year stretch. If he develops at the same rate next year he should be 3 to 5 lbs bigger and a true young man.
JC hello. Rooney made 3-4 great passes that could have been assists as well. TC is back and looking better, the one two touch stuff is coming back. Jones and Evans running up field tilting it forward for Man Utd, we saw that last game when TC came on.
NBI I’m also so excited about the youth coming through!

The Glazzers have taken a lot of $ from the club to get through the recession for their failing land developments. With that said they have grown the MRK world wide and have increased the yearly intake of cash to over 100 mill a year and growing fast. Who ever owns the club next will benefit from the MRK that is in place. They hired another 100 people this year to make 50 mill more a year in the next 5 years.
I wounder with the old ownership before the Glazzers if they were still in charge what difference in the transfer market would there have been? How much more or less would SAF have spent?
Zibbie, Agree about Tom Cleverley. There is just something he brings to the team that I am not quite able to place my finger on. I wouldn’t say we looked greatly better but there’s no doubting that we did look better movement and passing wise once he came on yesterday. And no I am not getting carried away, I actually did notice an improvement when he came one. (Or maybe I am just seeing what I want to see, who knows.) Sir Alex has already said he has been a big miss this season and there’s no doubt about it. He wanted Cleverley to be the new Scholes and he got injured. I just hope he isn’t as injury prone as this season has shown. It will be a tremendous waste of talent if that happens.
Morning everyone.
Good to see that someone in our dressing room listens to metal. I like ‘This is the one’ too, but I never really understood why it was played before kickoff. It’s a song about a girl having her first orgasm, isn’t it? Or did I just miss the point of the song completely?
With the MF next year – Carrick, Clevz, Anderson, Pogba, Jones, Tunni, Giggs,
Scholes & Fletch (Hopefully)
Where will the new MF signing, many are asking for, fit in without blocking game time for some of the youngsters on that list.
ah forgot! Good morning all!
RE European football, I don’t think one magic MF signing would guarantee anything. I feel we have the players to handle The euro football, only thing is SAF has to alter his tactics and a bit serious about the opposing teams, we are good to go.
Good morning fellow stalwarts.
A little mention goes out to our reserves last night edging past Blackburn by the Solitary goal. Some nice work by the back 5, neat and composed when under pressure. Fryers had a decent game imo, but Tyler Blackett for the Academy will give him good competition. Another lad who had a good one was Davide Petrucci. His link up play with Pogba, Will Keane and Tunni was especially good also. Pogba looked Decent with some nice twists turns and passes and boy does he hit the ball which led to United’s first goal which Will Keane duly dispatched ending his lengthy goalless spell of 4 games without a goal. I say lengthy on this one has he always has an eye for goal seems to be where a good striker should be, that’s in the right place at the right time. Ryan Tunniclife shown why he last year won the Jimmy Murphy Award, god this kid runs through walls for this club. Tenacious is definitely the word to describe this one Box 2 Effing Box. Hard as Nails to boot. Fabio bless this child, how he missed a straightforward header in this game is beyond me but I blame the curly hair. All in all a good performance and 3 points.
Morning Red devils around the world
NBI Red Onion..I m at service sir
lets roll on..
so it all looks like Pogba will/have eventually sign for us..
by the way, good win for the kids at Ewood..

Sandeep
Thanks for the injury update, and to be honest I have a feeling Michael Owen and ando won’t be playing again this season. Just when we think lots of the lads are getting back to fitness we get hit with more injuries! At least cleverley returned though…
kanchelskis, no mate i’m in Canada lol.
atin, thanks mate, appreciate the link!
i knew RoM wouldn’t let me down!
Great post about Giggsy Sandeep, the immortal No.11 of United, when he goes I think management must respect him and retire that No.11 as well, the Welsh Wizard will be needed to create some magic if we want to get past Bilbao
Also read that Pogba will decide to stay with Utd, need to follow this situation closely as well
Top scorer of the league:
RVP – 25
Rooney – 20
Aguero – 16
ba – 16
Yakubu – 13
Top assists:
Silva – 12
Adebayor – 11
Mata – 10
Valencia – 9
Giggsy – 8
- Nani – 8, Young – 7
So all together our wingers have created 32 goals out of 68 we have scored in the league.
That is almost 50% of the goals are assisted from our traditional wing play…
I hope either Berba or Chicharito will contribute at least 15 goals by the end of the season..
A good read on Jonny Evans..
I love the guy..

Lebomanc,
Even i fear that Owen and Ando are gone for the season..
Anderson – i dont know whatz next for the lad..
and yeah good that Tom C is back, that was horrendous by that cunt davies who ruined the lad’s season..
@ LordRT
Hello buddy,
Indeed its a great read on Sir Ryan..
The legend is simply amazing, incredible – we will fall short of words to describe the legend..
38 years old, playing now and then, still amongst the top 5 assists in the league..
He is not a man, he is a machine
Good day pal
denton: yeh dogleash is a class act isnt he?
he also said ‘pool’s shit form was a good sign ahead of the everton match
him and Sewerez the racist rat (someone do the cartoon please) are doing a great job of entertaining the nation at loserpool’s expense
Sandeep
I was mad at the tackle too! It was awful!
Btw how did ando first get injured?

No one celebrates 4th place quite like Arsenal!
Lebomanc,
I m not sure how ando got injured pal,
may be he pulled in it in the training or during the last game..
Ancha,
Hello buddy,
cunt piers is a dumbfuck
The sad part of this weekend was Anderson getting injured again (Hamstring). Looks like he is out for the season.
Hello sandeep
where do you stay?
Petrucci is well on his way to fulfilling his potential.I think next season he should get a look in.
Does danny welbeck really need to get any bigger for a continuation in improvement? personally i don’t think so.
Technically, i think he’s superb. All he needs to add to his game is composure and he’ll get even more goals. He can bulk up a little more but incredible-hulk he certainly won’t be.
King Eric…Costas…
You didnt understand what i said…
King Eric are you takeing some drugs? Chill out man
Ancha,
Bangalore buddy..how about you?
Mara
Yeah our king of UNITED drug
Costas on same drug but coupled with Cuban cigars
A bit trivia on german league and Gomez..
Mario Gomez has completed his 11th Bundesliga hat-trick .
The all time list is,
Gerd Müller – 32
Klaus Fischer – 12
Gomez – 11
for club and country, in the last 35 games, Gomez has scored 31 goals..
Sandeep

sandy.halagali
my display pic is Giggsy and Scholesy..
Mara. Yes. Heroin and crack cocaine pal. Chill out? What you on about? All I said to you was how on earth can we buy “11 Messi’s”.
I didnt say that we are going to buy 11 messis. I said if we could spent 500 mils on players like Barca and Real, we could destroy Barca even if they got 11 Messis in the squad. And even we didint spent near that much we still played the most of finals last five years. My line was against Glazers…they spent 500 mils to.buy a club instead a players
King Eric…i m reffering on comment 23:43
if i didnt understand something than my bad….
I am sure he would love Maiden,
