Gary Neville, who has spent the summer with the England squad during their Euro 2012 campaign, has reflected on his first pre-season with the club when he was 20-years-old.
“My first trip to Asia with United was in 1995,” he told the official site. “We went to Malaysia for two weeks and I had a brilliant time. We played in front of big crowds and saw a lot of interesting sights. It was the first tour for quite a lot of us young lads from the class of ’92 and it was brilliant to spend time with the first-team players and coaching staff. I also remember the heat and humidity. I couldn’t understand how it was possible to play football in those conditions. I remember coming back to play in England and thinking, ‘This is easy’. But that’s part of pre-season: if you can run in that heat then it’s going to bring on your fitness an awful lot.”

what a legend
Malaysia’s heat is OK Gary. We’ll have World Cup 2022 in QATAR!!
GNEV – Pre-season’s critical. From an individual player perspective, you never feel quite right if you’re not fit in pre-season. I missed pre-season tours once or twice or picked up little injuries in July and it really affected me. It can take you two or three months to get into the groove. You always feel like those lads who have gone on tour and done that intensive fitness training have a head start. The month before the season – the time spent at Carrington and the time spent on tour – is of huge benefit to a player. It can help the team, too, to get wins under the belt and build a bit of momentum.
Is it just me that thinks Phil Jones is taking the piss by not making himself available to go on pre season tour. the lad never played a minute at the Euros and has ALOT to prove to us United fans. what he needs another holiday for is honestly beyond me. PRIORITIES PHIL! Lindegaard never played at theEuros despite being selected just like Phil, but hes back in training with the rest of the squad…
Jones went to to Spain after the season, is in Cyprus now and going to America next week. unbelievable! Get back to carrington lad and get back to work…
RedVev was wrong in the way he celebrated towards the dippers when Rio scored that late winner………..He should have thrown his boots at the fuckers
Ok scratch that, it would have meant an early lunch for them bin dipping rat munching fuckers
@Ji Sung:
i believe Jonesy just miss the SA tour not the pre-season, mate. I think the reason Lindegaard join the tour bcoz he hardly played last season (albeit injuries) & really need matches to fit (after non-playing role with Denmark in EURO)
@ Cedars
Heard your firm launched a VPO. Is it true? I have left a couple of posts for you on the Valencia thread. Do check them out and enlighten me!
Prasan
I read them mate, funny as fuck………..You have a talent pal
@ Cedars
Thank you my friend. Nothing like trying to be creative when your head is not into work. Have spoilt the whole day without working! Hope, they don’t catch me posting on here, or else i’m screwed!
ji sung – Jones still trained though during the Euro’s. A break won’t harm him.
Ha furhermore he shouldn’t go on holiday because he has ALOT to prove? What? Fergie will have told him to take a break.
King Eric
Fergie knows fuck all mate, you and I know that
Ha. These cunts at goal laying into United and Rooney. Saying Rooney managed “only 5 assists while Silva , Mata etc……..” Err how many fucking goals did they score you thick cunts? Rooney is a striker. Silva and Mata are not.
http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2896/premier-league/2012/07/06/3223398/rooney-at-a-crossroads-evras-future-in-doubt-what-manchester?source=breakingnews
Prasan
Keep em coming pal, I for one enjoy them even if the majority are my expense you fuck!
Cedars – Hello mate. You well? Oh don’t even get me started . It annoys me to fuck. Some clearly know better than Fergie mate.
Barring major injuries, it is possible that Phil Jones will play fewer games next season. I see Sir Alex settling with Rafael at right back. With Vida back, there is even more competition for places in defence and with Kagawa signed, Jones might find it difficult to get a game in midfield. So, he has his work cut out for him to be honest.
Nah, Jones has fuck all to prove. A solid first season and good thing he was around when other defenders were dropping like flies, or it would have been a lot worse for us.
Costas – Spot on pal. Furthermore Jones should have a break as he was still training .
King Eric
I want you to get started, by all means do! ha ha All is well mate, all this crap about losing young players really doing my head in, perhaps Fergie has lost the plot after all……Pogba, how on earth did we let him go? Oh do FUCK off
Now people having a wank over Fryers, bet most never even seen him play. least of all the Daily fail reporter, stupid cunt
Ohh the ABU’s still don’t get the tune,
Think Rooney is crap and Carroll is the moon,
One gets them through further,
And does okay at the Euros,
While the other keeps munching
A rat near the Zoo loos,
One symbolizes technique,
While the other is a gyppo.
One does his job & takes a break,
The other wears pink shorts,
And, proves himself to be a crack,
But still Carroll is a legend,
And, would indeed win the Ballon D’Or,
Come out of the dream you rat poops,
He’shit and should be shown the door!
I also tink he deserves a break. I’m in no way disputing that. However, I think he needs to work very hard to be in the team this coming season. His early performances last season were very good, but I was not too impressed with his performances as the season went on if I am to be honest with you guys. Of our 3 summer signings, Young, De Gea and Jones, I would say that Jones had the worst season though his season wasn’t that bad. With no serious injuries, Jones wouldn’t be in the team so he needs to work harder to impress Sir Alex and perhaps he could cement the right back spot a his own in the short term and then maybe displace Evans as the partner to Vida in the coming season. My fair take.
@King Eric
Absolutely. Even if he didn’t play one single minute, Jones has to take time off just like the rest of the England players. Like you said, Jones spent the days of his original vacation training with England. He wasn’t resting and recharging his batteries. So that’s what he’s doing now. If he joined the United squad as soon as his Euro obligations were over, then there’s a very good chance he would have been burnt out by December.
If rafael stays fit and improves then he’ll cement the right back spot, he’s better than jones in that position because he’s an expert and adds quality.
Again, jones is being touted for a position that will never show his full potential. He’s a centre back but even at centre half, he still needs massive improvements. Getting moved randomly across the pitch in order to do a job will hamper him in the long term.
Jones is clearly shit and you people haven’t got a fucking clue!
Our 4 players at the Olympics:
http://www.manutd.com/en/News-And-Features/Football-News/2012/Jul/four-manchester-united-players-at-the-olympics.aspx?
Looking at the schedule, the final of the tournament is on August 11th and we face Everton 9 days later. So barring injuries, hopefully all of them will be back in time for Goodison Park. Especially if their countries get knocked out before the final.
Jones had a mixed season. Impressive at the start but then his flaws started to come to the fore as the season moved onwards, pointing to the fact he’s no where near a finished article and isn’t proven yet. He needs to settle at centre back but then improve. He needs to learn from the experienced defenders and add it to his game. He in my opinion was rushed into a first team starting place due to injuries Last season.
Weird day. Some rumors about Park being sold (not surprising given that he has 12 months left on his contract and won’t get a new deal) and same goes for Anderson: http://www.click-manchester.com/sport/manchester-united/1216896-benfica-close-in-manchester-united-ace-anderson.html?

Can you feel it, can you feel it CAN YOU FEEL IT…………..Kagawa and co are coming after your sorry asses
Jones ISN’T shit. He just needs to work harder and improve, WTF. I guess those Jones is shit comments were jokes or something.
Just watched the Man United v Liverpool game again from last season.
Just wanna say that day I was PROUD to be a United fan. Paddy Evra is a LEGEND.
I’ll say this much in case the rumors are true. If we go into the new season with Carrick, Scholes, Giggs and Cleverley as our only midfield options, we are fucked. I know we brought in Kagawa, but he won’t play as a CM in a 4-4-2 line up will he?

Looks like cole and lingard may be sent out on loan. Immense talents both of them are, i hope that they join a side that actually plays good football. I would send them both to wigan, roberto martinez will only help cultivate their technical skills and they’ll get more game time. He’s spanish, look at what he did with cleverly.
I rate them both highly. Diminutive midfielders, they both will render the term ‘little players can’t make it in the premier league’ useless. I see them returning to united as stronger players, coming back to challenge for a first team place.
Hearing strong rumours of Park to QPR for £5m. Would be a very good deal imo. He cost us £4m I seem to recall, so technically the Gimps have turned a profit? Re-sale valuetastic.
Anyway, always loved Park but I’m sorry to say he is finished at our level. I wish him nothing but the best. What a top player he was for us.
Costas – it is my belief that Kagawa could manage that role (part of a two-man midfield) against the shitter teams at Old Trafford quite easily, and that we will indeed see him deployed there on occasion.
@Fred
Ah, I see. Sounds a bit like our desire to use buy Nasri and use him in a similar role last year. Like you said, it could work out in some games, but it doesn’t solve the problem. Our other options would still be the golden oldies, Carrick at 31 now and TC23.
I fully agree on Park. I’ll be sad to see him go, but the last season was evidence that maybe his time at United was running out. Maybe we could still get a few more good performances out of him in 12-13, but in United’s current environment, 5 mil sounds too good to pass up.
Park was either the 1st or 2nd signing the Glazers made wasn’t he?
Kagawa in a 4-4-2 will mean united have not learnt again. He’s an attacking playmaker, in a flexible and interchangeable formation (4-2-3-1 or whatever). Best to play footballers in positions that bring the best out of them. I’d imagine kagawa signed the new deal with an assurance that he won’t be farmed out to the wing or in a two man midfield that will expose his defensive flaws.
@Fred
Good shout. It’s like the Ando/Cleverley partnership. Both essentially attacking players, but formed a fantastic MF two at the start of the season, either at OT or away at weaker teams.
I think against teams where the pattern of attack -vs- defence is pre-ordained, Kagawa could find himself alongside Anderson (if fit and still a Utd player) or Carrick in a MF two.
@Costas,
I had been screaming in some old threads about the need for us to sign another midfielder. You didn’t seem too into it then if I am not mistaking. Its good to know now that at least you agree with that.
We should sign a box to box tough tackler/ creative midfielder if we are to challenge.
@The WitchKing of Angmar
Pretty sure we just signed a creative midfielder?
This sounds like cunying bollocks if you ask me
Cunying? Meant cunting ………
@The WitchKing of Angmar
Must have been a different Costas, lol. Nah, I’ve also been crying for a box to box midfielder for over a year now. Ever since we lost Fletcher to a mysterious virus (at the time) and we didn’t have a plan B in his absence Lost 2 finals against Barcelona and that loss was one of the reasons why. And we still haven’t learned our lesson.
Am I right in thinking that Jones has scored one goal for United and two own-goals?
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the new Carragher.
Please note: This was a joke. Don’t verbally assault Cyril. Besides, Carragher was a decent defender about 8 years ago, just a bit unlucky with the goal ratio…
Off topic: I posted some concept artwork forAgent of Fergie fans that might be interested:
http://www.agentoffergie.com/2012/07/ivanka-concept-art.html
@Kanchelskis.
We didn’t just sign him. We signed him like 3 weeks ago. Just shitting with you pal.
The point I am making is, I don’t think our midfield should remain as it is. I believe we should buy another midfielder, preferably a box to box midfielder with ability to win possession and not a bad passer either. I have a little man crush for Fellaini by the way.
Anyone know if Cofie is included in the pre season squad. And I fancy Van Velzen over Lingaard and L Cole and would have liked the Dutch man in the squad. Got good pace, good shot and good body size. Well well.
Kagawa has never played in a two man midfield yet he’s been put up to play in it. He’s never going to be a midfielder that controls the tempo of a game, he’s a creative playmaker that floats between the defensive lines. He picks up the ball, links up play in the final third. He produces assists or scores. He’ll never be a carrick or a scholes who now plays deeper. United can’t afford to stifle kagawa’s creativity because they want to fit him in a pre-historic 4-4-2.
Oh, apparently Juve are going to pay us £800,000 in compensation for Pogbastard.
Put it in the Strootman fund!
@Cyril
Nope, 2 each.
OG in league vs Newcastle
OG in the horrid Basel game
Goal in the horrid Basel game
Goal in leage vs Villa
kanchelskis – Ah, thanks for that. He’ll just have to aspire to being the new Carragher then…
@Cyril
To be fair, it’s 2 goals (at Villa and Basle) and 2 own goals for Jones. So he still has some way to go before he’s Carragher level shit.

Oh, apparently Vince Mcmahon is going to pay us £800,000 in compensation for X-POG.

Ah, sorry, kanchelskis beat me to it.
Gyliano van velzen is no where near a first team place. Talented, still developing. I’d expect he’ll be moved into the reserves this season. Lingard and cole are talented, they’re both close to the first team picture, more so than van velzen.
Cofie might be taken on the pre season tour, did well on loan. He, joshua king and maybe brady would get an opportunity.
Prasan – Stop taking the piss and get back to work
X-Pog
Costas – I think we’ve needed a CM since Liverpool beat us 4 1 in 09. Yes, that bloody long! Hargreaves got injured that season. Fletcher stepped up the following season. His illness means we need something else in there. Be amazed if Fergie didn’t think the same I’m sure we’re trying our best to sign a midfielder.
His goal v Villa was a lovely finish as well. More of that, please Jonesy!
@ Cyril
Hahaha..have hardly worked today but have had a lot of fun putting 2 and 2 together, and coming out with some crap. Another 2 hours before i leave from here. Will keep bugging the RED buggers though!
Howz Val Venus btw, heard he signed for H.L.F.C (Helloooo Ladiessss Football club)!
No to Kagawa in a midfield 2. He’s a classic number 10. That’s my fear with this lad. We’ll try and change his position, like with Anderson. That hasn’t worked out too well….
Park is leaving? Sad day. A genuine good guy who did his best whenever he played. I wish him all the best if he’s leaving.
@Willie
Yeah I agree that we’ve needed a CM as far back as that in terms of a playing sense. Now we also need one in a literal sense! Since January 3 of them have departed (Gibson, Pogba and probably Ando) and even though they might not have been first XI options, they gave us some depth. And the lack of that depth is really telling now.
Samuel. I thought I read that Blackett was included into the pre season squad. Might have mis read that. I don’t feel Van Velzen is that far off, he has the body and speed, the other two I feel lack that.
Prasan – I was never a big fan of Val, I don’t think his gimmick was aimed at me. I did hear that Chelsea are trying to buy Hulk Hogan though. What’cha gonna do?!!!
They are players not robots. Jones is 19 showed awesome last year.
A top player in a top Nat team WTF!!!!!!!!!! Play some 70 fucking games a year!!!!!
Jones and all, drink get layed and lay in the sand. Have fun let go.
Some say, if that was me. It is not you, we have no clue.
Costas – First I wanted a ball winner, but since we haven’t signed a proper midfielder in 5 years, I’ll take any midfielder of any description!
Just out of interest (and because my memory might be going) have we ever done a good job of changing a player’s ‘natural’ position? I mean we hear about Wenger turning Thierry Henry from a winger into a striker, but what about Fergie?
Alan Smith in midfield wasn’t really a success….
@Cyril Sneer.
Hulk Hogan to Chelsea?
I cant stop laughing at that one.
Last year MG started a Sniedjer proticall, I was a member
I am now asking Kebab for a membership of his kind of MF player.
SAF without being rude a defender or 2 and the same for Kebabs MFer.
StR look into starting a fan contribution for transfers. If 300,000,000 million each chip in 1/4 LBS to a non-profit fund for SAF to spend they way he sees fit. Anyone look into the FFP rules on that. 100,000,000 give a lbs a person. hehe!
Chel$ki will have Hulk Hogan, Man Utd get Andre The Giant.
SAF to use training and tour to get them competing and pull the trigger on a few things.
Extra strong coffee will make you go poo.
@Cyril
Let Chelsea sign Hulk Hogan, we have Van Dam Gea to guard the goal!
Gday guyz,Cedars ur post @ 13.59 really got yours sincerely jumping.Oh so threatening to the opposition.Sure they CAN feel it.Kagawa kicks ass!Epic song by the Jacksons when the world made sense.
Kagawa what a signing!!!!!!!!!!!
@Cyril
As for Val Venus, was never a fan of his “technical” ability nor him, but his Helllooo Ladiesss never failed to bring a laugh on my face. Found it funny for some reason!
But I know we both have common ground when it comes to Trish Stratus and Stacy Kiebler!
Ka ga ka ga ka ga ka ga ga ga ga….Shinji Ka – ga – wa, Ka – ga – wa…Shinji Kagawa!!!
My prophecy…Kagawa will score in the Derby!!!! It won’t be the winner because we will win 3-0!!!!
Reports just reaching me from my Nazgul companions indicate that ManUtd want to spend a sizable amount on a certain Bilbo Baggins also known as Baines.
I shall go on a quest to prevent this signing cause I believe he is such a shit player.
Mike between Kagawa and TC23 look the fuck out PL. They will get Young, TV7, Nani, Rooney, Welbeck and LIL FUCKING PEA ON RUNS!!!!!!!!! One two touch football with vision of pass’s of advantage.
Was not he the keeper of the ring?
FEDERERRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kagawa will help Rooney be a better player.
@ Zibbie
Keeper of the ring..hahaha…Even if he was, with his distribution, the ball will be ‘No way Out’!
Roger the Dodger.
Barney Rubble, what an actor.
@ Fred
Did he do the Djoker or is it still on?
But still, Go Fedexxxx, pass on my courier to Nigella!
LB is behind what some say the best LB in the world, $ grubing cunt or not. Cole is awesome. LB plays games, consistent, plays hard, left footed, good free and corner kicks. Gives Man Utd 3 maybe 4 years to develop a LB. He and Evra and Evans backing them up, next. MFer like Costas says.
LB attacks and whips crosses in as well. He and Rafa on overlapping runs. Nice.
My bad good day to all who shag sheep bare back!
Nay, he was never the keeper of the one true ring. He was the Stealer of the ring. They stole it from us. And we must get it back from the them ( I.e prevent the signing). The worthless scum.
I am the WitchKing of Angmar, the Lord of the Nazgul, Neither living nor dead. The one who no man can kill.
And I will never die.
Prasan – yep, can’t go wrong with Stacy
MFer? Mattitude Follower?
Fabio on loan, most loans can be called back right? Say Dec and MUFC are hurting at LB Fabio gets games becomes better, call him back in Jan. ???
Park will stay to help bed in his brother Shin-Ji-sung-Park :lol
Park and Evra (the best pals) will get the boot from United at the same time imo.
Yeahh…loved the Hardy boyz. Jeff and Matt…If I am not mistaken, they used to kick some butt in those table matches, especially against those funny buggers Dudley boyz!
The twist of fate!
Luv this place, hehehaha.
KE anyone what is going on with Petrucci?????
But if you ask me one, I’d go for the Gimme a Hell Yeah boy! Stone Cold Steve Austin!
Kaaaa fucking Gawa…………..Go on and rape shit son………Cannot fucking wait
@sammy-utd we stand.Ur post @14.39 is fundamentally flawed.How can u assume that Kagawa will NEVA be able to control the tempo of a game frm the middle of the park a la Scholesy.Do u forget that The Ginger Ninja starred in Kagawa’s present expected position (playing off a striker)during his days as one half of the devastating partnership with Ruud before gradually receding deeper and deeper as age caught up with him.I take exception to ur view that Kagawa will not develop and increase his skill set under SAF and at Utd.Don’t worry,u will get that midfielder so many have bn clamoring for just don’t degrade the quality of playing staff we ALREADY have on our books plz.Thanks.
Wazza with TC23 and Kagawa imo will have a good year.

SAF out….Bring in Al Pacino
That speech in Any Given Sunday will lead us to Victory 59/60 games. That 60th game we lose would solely be down to Mike Phelan filling in for Pacino during a touchline ban.
Kagawa stepped in for one of Germany’s next great play makers. A 35 mill lbs talent Goetez and plays and performs better, Anyone who saw him play more then a few games gets it. Before Mario’s injury. Kagawa filled in for him played lw in there 4-2-3-1 also in the 2. For his Nat team Honda plays in the 10 he is out left.

@Zibbie and @Daemon
I think we shouldn’t rush to conclusions about what Kagawa can and cannot do because honestly, we don’t know two shits about how he would perform in the premiership.
One of few who walk the same halls of the pantheon of managers/coach’s Vince Lombardi he one 5 NFL tittles in 7 years. A dark Italian not given a chance to to a head coach until late in life.

QPR in w/ 5M bid for JiSungPARK?
Second rumor that Parkie is off in 2 days, yesterday it was about West Ham.
Transfer Rumors maybe, but lots of rumblings starting to emerging about Parkie. Especially odd with Park involved in much preseason publicity such as the kit release and talks about welcoming Kagawa.

Who’s degrading kagawa? i’m one that has praised the qualities he would potentially bring to united, don’t make allegations you can’t back up, READ!
You’ve come out with the typical british mentality. Place players in unfamiliar positions and then demand they produce optimum performances. Kagawa has never played in a two man midfield and i may not be totally accurate with this but he also claimed he’s better as a number 10, as the playmaker. He excelled with dortmund in that position and yet you want him to play in a two man midfield that requires an all round central midfield skill. Kagawa has many qualities but he doesn’t control the tempo of a game, deep lying midfielders do (xavi, pirlo, carrick, a veteran scholes e.t.c).
All i’m saying is, united should play to his strength, united shouldn’t be scared of coming out with a different idea that has no similarity with the flat, predictable 4-4-2…..
MIKE!!! I AM!!! OHOH I AM !!!!! OHOH CALL ON ME MIKE!!! OHOHOH

Must be something in the Evian Water over there !
Sam, spot on man. 100K a week nicely done mate. Set up what is next.
Could be Tunni time. These young lads can make leep’s forward or back in a 4 to 6 month stretch. SAF will give a good look to them in training and the tour. Make the tuff calls and move into the season with a team to challenge on all fronts.
Time will tell if we will regret letting Fryers leave.
Anyway, for anyone interested, MG told me to upadate the blog on his condition. He visited an eye consultant today that managed to make some of the flashing subside. Now he has to wait for some scarring to take place in order for the flashing to go completely away. Hopefully that won’t be far away. He’s missed over here.
Thanks Costas, 19
WIth Zeki gone, do you think the Baines deal looks closer, especially with Fabio going out on loan? And what about those rumors floating around that Sir Alex is pissed off that Zeki’s gone since he had no idea about the Spurs negotiations. I find that part hard to believe, but if these players have no respect for the club and Sir Alex, then they can fuck off for all I care.
Kebab membership grows for the MFer summer 2012 transfer wish list.

Balaji, SAF and Gill have a plan A,B,C,D.E.F,G and contingent plans to all those scenarios.
Well Park if he has put on the MUFC kit for the last time. Thank you sir.
The players who leave are the tea leaves to read.
Who is Pogba competing with at Juventus for subs role or even a squad position?
Andrea Pirlo
Marchisio
Arturo Vidal
Mauricio Isla
Kwadwo Asamoah
Felipe Melo (?)
All those guys apart from Melo are top notch and highly rated. Pigba is 6th choice or 4th at best because Isla is a excellent utility man. Good luck to Pogba, should buy himself a nice car and russian prostitute with that 20k.
Fryers?
Get lost, he seems a prospect but C’mon is he better than Fabio,Jones, Smalling ?
He can go Spurs and Challenge Assou Ekotto.
With Stephen Caulker,Bassong,Dawson,Vertonghen,King,Gallas & Kaboul fat chance of making it as a centre back !
Another one chasing the money in the bank. £9.50 an Hour…nothing more !
You’re welcome Zibbie. 19.
Evra to push up to MF LW?
Wow, i’d be shocked if park leaves. He was always gonna struggle to get games next season though.
btw, Have I ever expressed my admiration for Younes Kaboul ?
Kind of impressive no? If I was short of Centre backs on FIFA 12, I would defo purchase him.
Samuel – All that shit with Terry fucked his head up. If he does well at Brighton, I wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up staying there.
Powell been on MUFC training and diet for a while now. The 1st team training and tour he might be the next Jones , when given mins he earns of takes more.
Prasan – Federer dispatched that jabroni in 4 sets. He was majestic! 7th Wimbledon title, here we come!
Park
&
Nani.
If both somehow end up leaving, we are in trouble !
If we sign a midfielder, yes, Park should go, but I am 99% sure we won’t because of “value in the market”, so we might aswell hold on to him.
Really don’t think these lads leaving give a fuck if they play or not its just about more money without having to work for it
I’ll miss Park top pro and lad,these greedy little cunts would do well seeing how Park conducts himself
Have to think Utd want to sign Baines and allowing Park to leave have someone lined up for midfield
Papii only 7 1st team defenders
Rafa, Smalling, Rio, Vida, Evans, Jones, Evra.
Thorpe is young. Welcome LB for LB
I see 5 dudes to play the 3 of the 3-5-2
Fred I saw that. I love top tennis.
Wayne always a plan if one goes.
Willie – If brighton can afford his lavish wages then yeah probably. First avram grant, scolari, AVB, bridge, anton ferdinand and then jeopardising rio’s chances of going to the euros. How many careers will dad of the year john terry ruin?
LOL Zibbie, you and your 3-5-2. No chance of Sir Alex ever switching to a back three, interesting though it would be.
@ Fred
Helll yeahhh…Go Federer!!!
The departure of park wouldn’t be felt as much as nani leaving. Park’s game has always been based on his energy, i think a deterioration in his game was visible last season, this season would have been a hill too high to climb. Nani however is near his peak, gotta keep him.
Good I aim to please
This is SAF last great team, his 5th now? He has 4 windows left for this. Or so…….
4231>>>>>>>>>>>>352
Part of LB and his age. If one looks at the squad you can see youth, 19 to 24 and a lack of 26 to 30 and great wisdom 30+ so a 27 yr old to replace not position but age group of in their prime players. just saying.
4-3-3 turning into a 4-6 when needed heha
Willie I love the 4-2-3-1
4 6 0 is the future.
Phantom striker!
This Kagawa cat makes me happy. I just see a happy teammate on the end of his pass.
We need to reopen the the cubby files. Who was he?
Wolfie so give me your MUFC line up in the 4-2-3-1 as of now.
A happy chappy full of pork and pale ale.
back 4
Rafa, Rio, Vida, Evans.
MF 4
TV7 Carrick, Kagawa, Nani/Young
Strikers 2
Rooney , Welbeck
4-2-3-1
Same back 4
2- Carrick TC23
3- TV7 Kawaga Welbeck
1 —— Rooney
Lil Pea to get 27 to 30+ games as well.
Good to be excited about Kagawa, but I cannot see him fixing United and turning a poor season into a good one. Our most important players are a year older and one of them comming off a really bad injury. Scholes and Giggs close to 40, Rio well into 30′s and Carrick and Vidic into 30′s. Fletcher will most likely never play again our only true box-to-box midfielder.
Don’t mean to be a party pooper, but unless SAF buys at least another true midfielder, we will have to lean on luck next year. If Carrick and/or Scholes goes out with a bad injury, we are in trouble.
Kagawa will help in attack, but remember we have Young, Nani and Valencia already in our club feeding Rooney and the strikers.
For the Zibster? Anything!
DDG
Rafael Rio Evans Evra, Carrick Cleverley, Young Kagawa Valencia, Rooney
Not counting potential transfers to come yet! Moutinho and Baines could easily slot into that formation. If we sign them, of course….
Go X-Mass tree 4-3-2-1
Same back 4
TV7 Carrick– Nani/Young
Rooney — Kagawa
—– Webeck
TV7 Carrick Kagawa
Nani Rooney
– Welbeck
Zibbie I would still buy a left back…but only after we purchase this midfielder we’ve needed for a gazillion years.
Why? Because
Evra is shit
Joke, it because he’s 31 years old, Chelsea have Bertrand, we need a back up too.
Fabio is on loan…plus he has the potential to also become a right back too or a left midfielder, so a new left back isn’t a bad idea.
We are well prepared elsewhere.
Rafa,Biggie Smalls and Jones can play right back…although none is perfect one surely can do the job for 2 months and then they can inter change to maintain form in this position when one does suffer a dip or injury.
At centre back we got Rio, has back problems, but Evans is here
Vida hopefully starts every game after Sept-October (settling in).
Smalling is also Rio Identical, so goodie goodie here. Jones is capable(?) and can play midfield if desperate.
We sort out Left back and Ta Dah
See Willie my Cubs no title since 1918 or World Series since 1946 and still hope for the next game. Here tied for th PL title more goals and points then the year before and devastation has taken place.
Thanks Willie.
DDG, Rafael Vidic Smalling Baines, Moutinho Carrick, Valencia Kagawa Nani, Rooney.
That last team I posted has me sexually aroused!
I like the CB’s as well, a returning Captain and Rio played a lot a games after missing early. Evans well a true Red from the Academy who is good enough to play for MUFC!!!! Smalling I see a Rio as well with a bite. Then Jones, cock of the walk. Walk tall and I will enjoy watching you turn into a man. Evra as emergency.
Rio, Vida, Evans, Smalling and Jones.
The possibilities of silly season has me smoke more weed. hehe not really
Although I like the look of Moutinho, I doubt we want him.
We wasn’t linked to him before the Euro’s and the paper talk only began after his team exited the competition. It seems like the papers are just linking us with player x for £xm….ignoring position or debts or the amount we usually or are likely to spend.
Usually I expect United to have a kitty of £50m (includes player sales fees etc)…say we are running on tight purse strings…I expect us to have at least £40m.
I can’t see us spending over £12m for a left back or £20m for a midfielder…maybe it will rise, but the initial fees will not go over what I state.
I think we do want him. Just watch this space…….. !
Overhaul of the MF of 2012.
Not since the days of Nani, Anderson, Hargo and the Smith experiment. has SAF foucused so much time and club assets towards the MF. It all started before the league 2 playoffs, the next great young British talent all raped up by SAF and blam he shines at Wem. and then the driving engine that tied MF to goals for the German champions, Japans next big thing fly to meet SAF and he dons a Red Kit.
As the summer rolls on a live reality show unfolds. What will the final 25 man team be for 2012 CL play? In the last 3 years 13 gone 11 with buys and TC and Welbeck and Amos promoted.
There’s money in the tin pot for a big signing. Glazers are cunts, but they’re also shrewd bastards. Can’t afford another CL flop.
Papii with a matrix of info what would the adusted $ be of the last MF spending spree? Or big summers prior. 18, 16 and 18 or some big thing for Hargo, Nani and Anderson. New TV deal going rate type of thing. Now a British premium of some 28.6724% So what was 12 mill is 17 now. Ect
Powell good business
Kagawa great business
No Nasri or Hazzard so that cash.
And all sale recites.
One Rabbit of 22 to 32 mill and another with 1-2 more kids.
The only team that would arouse me is our sexy XI: (Only the sexy boys) :lol
Lindegaard
Rafa Smalling Vida Evra
Valencia Giggs Cleverley Nani
Chicha Berba
Bench;
Macheda, Rio, Kagawa
De Gea, Evans, Fabio, Anderson
Willie spot fucking on final 8 at least.
Take out Rio …put in Nick Power !
Now you’re being daft. Go to the dirty hut papii!
We’re gonna take back that premiership trophy, Zibbie! Smack old bobby wank in the face, while doing it!
Marcelo Bielsa resigns as Athletic Bilbao coach.
lets go get his players now
SAF sign him up!!
Tactically I would leak fluid if I saw this line up;
——————– De Gea —————–
———— RioFerdy5 —————Vida
Rafa——————- Carrick —————Evra
————Clevs—————–Scholes
————- Kagawa —-Nani———Young——
—Valencia———Rooney——-Welbeck
We’d beat Barca twice with this line up
Oscar and no one else.
I really have to say that losing Fryers and Pogba is a huge loss. I rated both of them and its a shame that we are losing our bright talents from our youth academy. A real shame !
Exactly my point WitchKing.It’s time we stop treating players like commodities and start treating them like HUMAN BEINGS!When a child is born,it is not expected to immediately begin to fend for itself rather it is nurtured and taken care of until maturity.I dont care if u have Attila the Hun as a father u just cant cope with life straight frm the womb on ur own!Kagawa has just bn ‘born’ into the Premiership albeit with immense potential (great genes).That does not foreclose the possibility of him turning out a flop.Yet,by virtue of his pedigree and under the proven effective tutelage of SAF,he should turn out SUPER not far down the line.Quit with the doom and gloom people and just enjoy the game and the privilege of being part of the Utd family for once y’all!
Zibbie @ 17:21: “5 dudes to play the 3 of the 3-5-2″
Hey, quit stealing my thunder.
