Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed that Paul Pogba will feature in tonight’s game against Leeds.
The 18-year-old has impressed for the Reserves since joining United from Le Havre in 2009. The French club kicked up a big stink about his departure and given the way he has come on at United, it’s no surprise.
“He’s got a slight injury, it’s not too bad, though,” said Ferguson. “So he wasn’t available for Sunday but he should be able to play on Tuesday and I intend to play him against Leeds United.”
What is most interesting about this statement is the suggestion that Pogba might have been in the squad for Chelsea if not for the injury.
Burnley made approach to sign the teenager on loan but United rejected the approach.
“It’s more difficult to loan a boy of 18 who’s come from France,” he continued. “We prefer to keep him with us until we find he’s mature enough to possibly go on loan. Maybe next year that could be an option but we’re definitely expecting him this season to stay with Manchester United.”





Man Utd News 24/7





















Perfect chance for Paul to make a claim for a first team place. Go Pogba!
Finally. ComeOn United.
Hope its a young team. Really looking forward to Pogba. Wishing Tom and Danny were back for this.
Should be a crackin atmosphere.
Red v White. Get stuckin!!!!
I expect a really young back 4, an experienced midfield with Pogba in it and the Berb up front.
Pogba has it all. The sky is his limit.
Hopefully this is our missing mifielder
2 – 0 United
Can’t wait!
Park & Berb to score
Surely a tough place to start, a baptism of fire where the lad can really endear himself to us.
Come on United! Come on Paul Pogba!
2 minute Paul Pogba video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IP2mqHByvfM
Looks like King Eric had a word with the gaffer! Am excited to see him looked comfortable when he came on against New York Cosmos. I still hope that theres a strong-ish team out tonight. Do not want to lose whatsoever!!!
Even if he starts tonight, the boss has hinted, that he could still go out on loan next season. Looking forward to seeing this lad. Very similar to big Pat. Hope he’s as good!
How come we change threads just after I post something really long and all. tutut this won’t do at all….
Copy and paste it, Pavan!
If he performs when called, I don’t think will loan him out….The competition for Central Midfield places is wide open at the moment, so he’ll get games….but it all depends on how he does today.
We seem to have a whole lot of expectation on him, let’s not put too much pressure on the boy.
Running down the wing
Hear United sing
Viva Ronaldo!
Naah Fred, don’t wanna clog the thread with such a large off-topic discussion. Ah well I can have another long discussion later as well.
Pogba, well well I liked what i saw in the Scholesy testimonial, nice ball control and all, so lets see if he has the right attitude, as it seems like the biggest issue(nobody generally thinks so, but look at SAF saying that if he was more mature, then he would have been loaned out) although I guess he is unsecure and ambitious and foreign, hence the thirst that always exists in the best. Hopefully its just that and that he still listens to the coaches and is a true team player. Here’s hoping he is so good that no more calls for a Sneijder are needed from any one next time around.
Amos; Valencia, Fryers, Carrick, Fabio; Giggs, Park, Macheda; Diouf, Owen & Berba.
wtf is that?
good luck 2 pogba tonight good test 4 him as those fucking goons will be fired up hope a few more young uns get a run out and all
good luck 2 the boys on and off the park tonight
19
fergie took the it for real to put the players in who need games.
We owe these one after the cup game. All together now “we all hate leeds scum we all hate leeds scum”. Hate the cunts. Red army
Zehl – What? Weird fucking line up. No midfielders and 4 strikers???
Amos, Valencia, Fryers, Carrick, Fabio, Giggs, Park, Macheda, Diouf, Owen, Berbatov
If he doesn’t play well today i hope idiotic fans don’t get on his back. Weather he plays well or not we should not be judging him on just one senior game. Good luck to him and the team. If he doesn’t play well today i hope idiotic fans don’t get on his back. Weather he plays well or not we should not be judging him on just one senior game. Good luck to him and the team.
which player does Pogba most resemble? Havent seen much of him.
Saw Fryers picked a couple of hours ago. That is some serious insider info. Hmmm!
No Pogba, after all the build up!
That is the strangest line up I have seen Fergie select. No Pogba. One full back. One central midfielder at centre back in Carrick and 4 fucking strikers. Got to be a wind up?
that’s not a team.
Dunno what was in Fergie’s mind there.
Is that team real?!
@King Eric Fryers is a full back
Weird.
can anyone help me with a stream?
You lads worried about the midfield?! Only 2 true defenders Fryers and Fabio. Amos might be busy.
Right then, Lets score 15 then it doesn’t matter, WHAT?!
keano – Yeah he is. Forgot. Well him and Fabio. So who the fuck at centre back? Carrick and ? Where the fuck are Macheda and Diouf gonna fit in?
whether* not weather damn this english language
i’m not so surprised to see Jones not starting but i am surprised there’s no Evans in there and the biggest shock of all, Carrick at CB. Goodness. I’ll leave thoughts on that till after the game. Line up very strange indeed. reminds me when we played 9 defenders and 1 attacker against Arsenal
Subs: De Gea, Welbeck, RBrown, MKeane, Thorpe, Pogba, Cole
great bench.
Welbeck back!
Forgot my manners. Good evening guys.
King Eric- who knows! I guess we’re going to see lots of goals this evening
All right lads, looks like we’re going all out for total football and all, funny 2 defenders, 2 midfielders as defenders, 2 forwards as midfielders and i guess 2 forwards. Funny, I have got a nice feeling about this team, even though the balances all seem messed up, SAF thinks that’s enough, then it’s enough.
Loadsa hype surrounding Pogba and most of it justified,but th boy is very inexperienced and I’d hate to see them Leeds Scum kick lumps outa him.What about Petrucci? no talk about him and Reds seem to have forgotten him. I would like to see him get his chance tonight as I feel he could be ready
Why is DDG in the bench and not ALG
Very strange Line-Up I must say.hope it doesn’t backfire.
Link for a stream anyone?
If anyone got that starting lineup, give them a blue Peters badge!
http://magic-tv.co/
According to Canal+ the quataris are quite near to buy United for 2 billion $
United team: Amos; Valencia, Carrick, Fryers, Fabio; Diouf, Giggs, Park; Macheda, Berbatov, Owen. Substitutes: De Gea, Welbeck, Pogba, Brown, M Keane, Thorpe, Cole.
Is this the confirmed line-up? I’d have put Tom Thorpe in at the back. Natural Centre back and Shit Hot!
Yes it’s confirmed.
Come on United.
Yes fuck yes Wellbeck is back on the bench.
OK SAF Carrick gets time at CB, Rio and Vida hurt, Smalling grion Rafa still out. Give him some CB mins.
Diouf and Kiko given time on the wings to step up for playing time. With Ravle can step up if one of the 3 Young, Nani, Tony V get hurt.
SAF giving Tony V a shot at starting at RB to team with Nani going forward. If Tony adapts he is so strong with Nani stepping up defensive duties!!!!
Options, Options, Options, Options,Options……..
Looks like the boss is going with the famous 4 2 4 Brazilian formation…. Used with great effect by Brazil in 58…. Doubt that most here would know that!!
WillieRedNut
he was never going to start. To be honest won’t be surprised to see him get just 20 minutes tonight.
Come on United!!!
wow – is this lineup for real? Never expected this.
would be interesting to hear Fergie’s view on the selection. I dearly hope we perform well and win. Cannot bear thinking otherwise. Come on you reds.
@Zelh – hi mate how reliable is Canal+ ?
@CedarsDevil
Respect for the age man!:D
….and I thought the last year’s line up against Arsenal FA cup tie was weird
Not being smart after the fact, but I was going to suggest Carrick in defense.
I chickened out!
It’s like this, you numpties:
Amos
Valencia, Carrick, Fryers, Fabio
Diouf, Giggs, Park, Macheda
Berbatov, Owen
hi guys,this is first comment on the day when SAF has selected the weirdest 11.
You are wrong Fred, its actually like this
Amos
Valencia Carrick Fryers Fabio
macheda Park Giggs Diouf
Berbatov Owen
what shape are we playing with this team … i have no clue..
Willie with the new tactical press from the front and push ahead we have seen CB push up, so Carrick at CB not bad if he can defend at all. I see SAF happy winning 3-1 vs 1-0. Jones in front of Carrick hehehe..
When did we put Rafa Benitez in charge of our Carling Cup games?
I do not have Fox Soccer plus as an option. So no TV for me.
Steams please.
Your all wrong.
IT like this.
Valencia Fryers Fabio
Carrick
Park Giggs
Berbatov
Owen Macheda Diouf
No no no….you’re are ALL WRONG!
——————Amos————-
———-Fryers —- Fabio———
—————Carrick————–
Valencia —-Giggs———-Park
macheda Diouf—Berbatov Owen
2-1-3-4
This is one crazy lineup. I suppose some of the choices are forced, but still. I hope for a good game, but don’t expect much to be honest. Would be unfair to the guys, considering that this is the crazies line up I have ever seen.
Balaji Sivaraman Hello!!!
I saw some one claimed you as harsh, I laughed so, you are a fare spirited man Balaji Sivaraman!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbjdcRHOXIQ
Very good height and strength in the team. Lots of players who will run for Owen and Berba. Park will slide down behind Valencia when TonyV rips forward.

310 I have been saying a 1-1-2-3-4 formation is the way to go!
KingOfStretfordEnd
Thanks! Not that old mind you, just seen videos of it…
Are we playin 2 4 4?
according to manutd.com Fryers is a left back
so we do have 2 full backs,2 midfielders, 2 wingers, and 4 strikers
Well this will be interesting
Jello Zibbie! Thanks my friend, really touched by that.
G’afternoon all you mangy smelly criminals!
SAF to himself: “I know what I’ll do… I’ll put all the old warhorses in who hardly touch the pitch, with all the newest phillies who hardly touch the pitch, stir in a bit of MadGaffer formation tweeks to see what it would be like if we didn’t put any Midfield on the pitch (thinking it could be easier to avoid a barca midfield rather than take the trouble of beating it), and piss of the leeds scum that we all hate in the process!”
wait what. what’s the formation?
Balaji
Wash your mouth with soap and bang your head against a wall for even joking about that! hahaha
For all people looking for streams, I will always suggest Sopcast streams as they have HD quality. Watching them on a HD screen, you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between cable and the stream.

Cedars LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh Shit life calls I must leave soon so reading RoM will be my best source of the game!!
What the fuck?
Your welcome and respected by myself and many more here. Balaji.
we are playing 0-0-10
Looks like Costas just had a look at the team line up. How are you holding up our Greek friend, be sure to have those Kebabs ready?
Actually,it looks more like a 3-1-4-2 to me,carrick to play a bit in front of fryers alternating between defensive midfield on the front foot,and a makeshift center back while on the back. Very tricky line-up with a lot of gambling from the gaffer,hope it pays off and we get to see why he is called ‘Sir’ once again or else he’s gonna be bollocked by a lot of journos and fans if he should lose the plot. Hoping for the best though. #GGMU!
WTF with the lineup?
@Balaji
Yeah mate, it was that obvious hey? Waiting to see how they line up, but it’s safe to say that Fergie’s decision to keep 7 strikers is paying off!
Any channel bringing it live in india??
Ten action plus was supposed to telecast that but it is now showing serie a
COME ON UNITED!!!
anyone got the team sheet ….with the bench ?
Berbatov! Epic double goal line save.
anyone got a good stream?

mancunians,,ts good to see Zeki Fryers starin tonight i remember one point Rio referrin to him as the one to watch in the 2018 world cup,,(assumin of course England wuld host it..)and Wes bro in the sub bench i hv heard nothin but praise for tht kid..but wht m really lookin forward is to see Pogba in action tonight..lets av ie..!!mancunians,,ts good to see Zeki Fryers starin tonight i remember one point Rio referrin to him as the one to watch in the 2018 world cup,,(assumin of course England wuld host it..)and Wes bro in the sub bench i hv heard nothin but praise for tht kid..but wht m really lookin forward is to see Pogba in action tonight..lets av ie..!!
Mattos,,,,,, try this:-
http://www.firstrowsports.tv/watch/81510/1/watch-leeds-united-vs-manchester-united.html
Take that you scum!
owen sure know how to finish. good ball from berba and park
Mikey Owen still got the hunger for goals ain’t he
Yes!!! Owen 1-0!!!
YSB YSB!
FUCKING SHEEPFUCKERS!
Die leeds scum !!! Owen !!!
So from what I figured out, the formation is like this:
4-3-3:
Amos – Tony V, Fryers, Carrick, Fabio – Park, Berba, Giggs – Diouf, Owen, Kiko
Owen you fucking former Scouser bastard!!! Coulda shut them up, nearly fucked it up, Viva Mickey O,,,
Just incredible, the match going on in the stands is almost as enjoyable as the match on the pitch. Come’on you Reds!! Put four up on these filthy fuckers and quiet’em down!
Real strange line up, could be a long night despite leading
Arsenal behind against Shrewsberry! LOOOOL
Shrewsbury of course
@ Costas
I see a 4-4-2
Macheda and Diouff on the wings, Giggs and Park in the middle
i actually think diouf is quite a good player
Although, as my handle would suggest, my vision can be Wenger-esque at times
We’re in fine voice tonight
With the depth of our squad in certain areas and the lack of it in others, maybe Tony V and Berba should get used to playing at RB and CM respectively.
well done fabio!
@ididnotzeeit
Just about. But Berba’s role is a bit different to Owen’s. He tracks back a lot.
Watch out Nani and Valencia…..OWEN THE NEW WINGER!
Fucking Micky….having a field day!
Get in Mikey!
a fucking whizzbanger from Owen GET THE FUCK IN 2-0
Jesus Owen, beautiful poacher, well done lad
anyone find it worrying that macheda isn’t improving much? his finishing can be quality but his all round play can be lacking.
What a finish!! Saw the amount of time he kept the ball at his feet? Almost zero! He got it, he smashed it in!
Every other team must be shitting themselves by seeing our squad !!! Fuck three great goalkeepers, 1 for the league , 1 for champions league , 1 for the cup.
M Lovin it
GGMU !!!
Fred predicted a hat trick for Owen, come on Micky!
get in YSB!
owen is so fucking clinical, not many strikers can do that…
Lets get a bag a fucking hatful tonight and show these fucking scumbags how shit they are on their own patch…
Mickey Owen on fucking fire!! That line-up is just taking the piss outta everybody, Leeds included!
many thanks to all who helped with (non)broadcast info for India and streams. Watching http://www.firstrowsports.tv/watch/81510/1/watch-leeds-united-vs-manchester-united.html
Quite good. BIG question – how exactly did we lose to Leeds year before last???
you watching MG ?
I’ve always hated Leeds with a passion, even more than City or Liverpool. 2-0? Show no mercy. Give ‘em some more.
I see Elland Road has some empty seats in the home section….already herding their sheep home.
Oh Elland Road…is full of sheep….
ah tony that should be 3.
Mickey Owen looking the complete player atm! Valencia…. how?! Oh well, not as bad as Torres!
Maceda is having a poor game, seems he just wants to get on the scoresheet rather than passing to a teammate in a better position.
Owen is class though, hat-trick anyone!
the fuck was that tackle on park? came through the back of him and off the ground
Bastard!!!
Owen is makin a case for himself tonight,,berba shuld learn a thing or two frm him..!!
Almost 3-0. Well almost
Hiya Toynbee, keano was lookin for ya to kick some of the leeds scums
Mattos – so you just noticed diouf is a good player? you really aren’t keeping up with united, are you?
fuck i hate leeds
Anyone else notice Giggs just quietly, confidently pulling the strings? Legend that man, hasn’t put a foot wrong all night. Berbatov, cool as fuck. Owen with the brace but those two have been just playing chess out there, it’s great to watch.
REDKONVICT. Fucking Leeds scum need their nobs bit off
@ samuel
i said “i actually think diouf is quite a good player”.. implying that while other people may not rate him, i do. maybe you need to keep up with your english?
prediction…….. Macheda will be off early second half……
Thank you Ryan Giggs
It’s a testament to how shite this Leeds team is that Park is doing Messi like solo runs against them.
I simply love Ryan Giggs
giggs.. giggs will tear you apart.. again
that’s the best way to shut the scum up Giggsy
that boy should end his carreer right away.
old giggsy skinned him totally.
Tremendous finish from Giggs! Makes it all look so easy!
3-0 Excellent. No mercy tonight please. Humiliate the Leeds bastards!
hahaha fuck you leeds. what a player sir giggsy
Tonybee
Well i suppose we could do that, but i dont think they hav nobs so saved us some time there
kiko needs to get his head out his ass
that old man make it looks so easy…
how many times did we score 3 goals in the 1st half this season?
Costas,,,,Park >Messi like runs ……funny as fuck ….hahahahah
thats it…nightynight. long day, breakfast meeting tomorrow…red dreams:)
This United team scores for fun at the moment no matter who’s playing. Great stuff by Giggsy there.
As for Kiko, imo left wing isn’t a position where he flourishes. It never has. Maybe if Owen or Berba are taken off early, Fergie will draft him inside.
16 goals from 16 starts for Michael Owen. Interesting.
Redkkonvict….they certainly aint got the balls for it neither
bring pogba and whoever youngster on the bench, just wanna see them play…
slim
Kiko has the talent, he will come good in future & yeah he needs to sort his head
kiko is still living in 2009………fuck me though young fryers cool as fuck!!! whats he all about another gem in the making….cmon you reds!!!
Grand old master ryan giggs showing them how its done, pogba to come on? and perhaps more young player’s. what do people think of fryers so far? i’d like other views.iews.
NOW I WANT POGBA AND COLE!
macheda is terrible today
Once Owen scored his second, the only thing on my mind to make things complete….a short corner, a nutmeg, beating three Scums and a shot with the outside of his left boot onto the roof of the net.
Get in Giggsy!!!!!!!
161 goals for Giggs. Just when Rooney thought he was getting closer.
Is anyone still confused by the line up? hahahaha
Samuel – hope you’re feeling better now my friend!
mickey owens still got it by the way….class class clas finisher and to be fair always will be!!!
Owen played well whenever he has been given games, I hope we use him more often. He is still dangerous in the final third, not just scoring but general play as well, nice setup for Tony V
I am still a bit worried about this game – not the result but the risk that those dirty Leeds bastards with resort to kicking our players as they get stuffed. Same old Leeds. The challenge on Park was a disgrace.
Btw. Amazing passing from Carrick.
Agree with Zelh. Get Paul and Lanell on!
Anybody getting the common theme between all our performances this season: We’ve got our old swagger back. It doesn’t matter what team Sir Alex puts out – it feels like we go out with the intention of brutally murdering teams. The goals scored stat has demonstrated as much, but even the teams put out by Sir Alex is showing more attacking intent than in the past couple of seasons. I know this is just a Carling Cup match against a Championship team, but it is pretty evident in this match as well. I think this is going to be one enjoyable season.
* Owen has been top drawer. Really is a testament to the statement that form is temporary, class is permanent. Amazing strike for the goal and some incredible close-control to set up Valencia for what should’ve been our third.
* Ryan Giggs – 3 sub appearances, 2 starts – 2 assists and 2 goals. The man is fucking 38, come on. What a player! I simply love this guy. Have nothing more to say.
* Berbatov is class. Some of his flicks to keep the ball moving were pretty much what we would expect from him. Now, he needs to top it with a goal to get his confidence back. Still, I will pay top dollar to watch that.
* Macheda has been poor for me. Too many stray passes and hard first touches. He really needs to get his act together in this game and for his future as well.
Anyways, it never gets boring to beat Leeds.
Sir Ryan Giggs…!!!
Owen..cool finishes..
m worried about scums taking on our players..
we gotta protect ourselves from such reckless opposition
Redmanwalking – a goal scoring stat like that would make owen a starter at other clubs, he is a deadly finisher, end of. shame he is 31 now.
Whole team doing well, apart from Macheda, who appears kind of lost out on the left
Arsenal ‘equalised’ against Shrewsbury to bring it 1-1. WTF! The 8-2 thrashing they got at OT has really messed with Arsenal’s minds….
Anyone else know why the commentator was saying the leeds fans are still in high spirits when we haven’t heard fuck all out of them all match and United fans have not stopped all half. Doesn’t he know we’re away!! UNITED AWAY…..BEST SUPPORT IN WORLD SPORT…..FACT!!!
Thought fergie must have been on the wacky baccy drawing up the team sheet – but to quote the fans, this is so fuckin easy!
Oh, wasn’t Snodgrass the cunt who went through Berbatov from behind on the halfway line? If so, the yellow card he picked up for hacking down Park should have been a red. Cunt.
Any fuckin striker who can score a 95 minute winner against the bitters and a couple against the scums is a fuckin UNITED LEGEND !!
Mikey u beauty!!!
Tweet from Rio -
rioferdy5: Giggs Giggs will tear u apart again!! 3 – 0…..young Zeke fryers having a solid debut.
Yes Mickey, great Goals !
Would like to see the rest get on the scoreline, if its not 12-0 I blame Gibson !
Giggsy’s still taking apart players at his age
Long may it continue.
Hopefully Pogba,Reece Brown and Welbeck/ Keano come on to impress.
take the berb off and rest him for stoke.
give kiko a run as a forward not as a winger.
The tit on sky sports has just said it was a good atmosphere til the 3rd goal went in and the leeds fans went a bit flat after that????? Is that glass sound proof?? Fuckin half witt!!!
Cedars – i’m relaxed buddy, pogba for fourth goal maybe? you never know lol
Samuel
31 isn’t an issue if he is fit and firing like today. He should be given game time if he is going to play like this
Clint good one mate. HAha poor chap gibson.
Giggs off for Pogba!
RedKonvict
nice stat, Owen late late winner vs Shitty & probably a hattrick vs Leeds – Legend!
Fuck….i missed Giggs’ Goal
I just got my shirt with his name on it. Fucking Legend.
POGBA ON!
pogba!
This is so exciting!
COME ON UNITED!!
Pogba is on, c’mon do it boy
It’s Pogba-Time!
Can’t someone in here bash Carrick just for the sake of it? ROM feels weird with no Carrick bashing.
Come on Pogs!!
Pogba on…mmm..this is going to be interesting
@Samuel – I know mate. I would like to see us use him more. He has been exceptional in the final third, like Balaji mentioned, not just in terms of goal but also in play through the center and the wing. I think he will be an excellent influence on our Lil Pea.
pogba in giggsy out. any streams?
carrick is shit…sell the cunt….
better Costas? :lol;
@Costas – Carricks passing was off by a centimeter. He is shit!
A female red is really laying it into the Leeds fans on the Sky live site….. Really hilarious stuff
wow what a waste of money carrick is
pogba great ball
Ancha – i understand that but again you could other player’s are doing better, however he indeed should be getting more game time but the squad is massive and competitive.
Fucking hell the boy has balls with that ball out to TonyV
great pass from the pog.
Thanks guys. NOw I feel like I am home.
The Berb is taking the piss out of leeds
any idea who is the captain rite now??
Forssell doing a fucking Kevin Davies on Pogba. Jesus
Carrick is captain
Karandeep
Carrick’s got the armband
WE ALL HATE LEEDS SCUM, WE ALL HATE LEEDS SCUM
yeah Carrick has the armband co he’s shit
Redmanwalking – despite his age, owen seems to have improved his all round game since he joined the club, yeah i agree he should be used more, can he break in as a starter? it will be difficult but he will be another reserved ammunition for united.
how has fryers played??
Owen on fire! That would have been a lovely goal for the hat trick
Fryers has looked solid and coped with everything thrown at him so far. He looks like another quality defender coming through the ranks
Fryers will put pressure on Evra and Fabio as he’s normally a LB.
Pogba doing well so far.
Pogba’s passing and vision is superb.
The travelling Reds finally join me in the Viva Ronaldo chant I started at 18:53.
Wes Brown chant going now.
Berba as a CM is why Fergie didn’t sign Sneijder.
Wish there was a website dedicated to the chants and songs that fill the grounds on nights like these. Two guys, two phone cameras, taping the support. Not that I’d give two fucking shits what the scum have to say but I think it’d just be an absolute riot to go listen to a recap of the game as per the fans.
If it’s not already available, I claim patent #99785106
If it is available, hit man up with a link.
Rent Boyz Sunday, Filthy Scum today, I call that white noise at night, sleep like a baby
Fucking ITV!!!
They have a programme on at the moment called “20 Goals That Shooked The World”.
Again the put forward the myth that Denis Law’s goal for Man Shitty relegated United back in 1974.
When is this fucking lie doing to die?
19 19 19 19 19
Okay, that should be “going to die”.
well done from fryers.
Israel
Sadly idiots listen to idiots………. We were relegated regardless, everyone should know that
No need to use Danny today imo. Isn’t he schedule to start on Saturday?
Ken Bates,,,, you bought a heap of shite
I know I keep banging on about it but Alan Smith has just said “The home fans have been superb, 3-0 down and still they continue to get behind the team” ITS FUCKING US YOU DAFT TWAT!!!!!
Its over 70 mins – have Leeds had a shot on goal yet?
yeah cause the fuckings sheeps sing 12 days of Cantona
Viva MG-do
Viva MG-do
He writes from the left to the right
Viva MG-do
Eat your heart out Ronaldo
Chuffed to bits with the lads – very proud and very happy to see Pogba on and more importantly Danny is back.
Costas – You really put a smile on my face my friend and I mean that in the nicest possible way
Totally agree with Costas
Berbas new role suits him totally – actually makes him run too
Brilliant Cole is on
Larnell is coming on.
SAF must be reading my posts :p
@mikekelly12
was thinking the same weird stuff
OK ..its 80 mins I make that Leeds’ first serious shot on goal.
Paul Scholes, still controlling the game, even from the stands – Jedi Stare
Park Ji-Sung, Centerback? Hahahahahahah, South Korea’s #5
Nice to see Millwall getting hammered………….Another team with scum fans
WE ARE DOWN TO 10 MEN
We have 5 of the best Centre-Halves in england on our books, and here we have Carrick and Park playing in the centre of defense!
Oops! Change that, now it’s Berba at the back!
Long live Fergie!
Berba centre half – wtf!!!!
Berbatov at centre half to fill in for the last ten minutes with Fryers injured. What a trooper he is.
hahaha
Leeds have been made to look like a pub team, with our line-up being drawn out of a hat, and still hammering them!
Now it’s Berba as the centre back.
@Cedars
Thanks. Because of the Berba/Sneijder comment? Well you know Fergie always has a plan, lol.
@MG
Speaking of that, it was fun to see him run like crazy on Sunday just to get at the end of Rooney’s pass. Despite what the Sun or the Mail will have yuou believe, Berba actually covers a lot of distance during games.
Deary me.
larnell looks like a 12 yo between all the guys
ididnotzeeit
No no no
Paul Scholes: The stare of the dark side
A centre back partnership of Carrick and Berbatov?!?!?!?!?
Now we ARE taking the piss!!
I wonder how good Berba’s at chess…
Berba CB
Costas
I agree
smartalex
Now if only DDG was up front!
In any case what a game of total football today
Vida and Rio will never get back into the team! It’s open season on the Centre-Half berth, with everyone having a turn!
@ MG
Regardless, the force is strong with that one
Leeds are scum. Suppose I can thank the League Cup for giving me a friendly reminder every once in a while
Are my eyes playing tricks on me or is the Berb really filling in as a centreback?
Leeds….. you’re shit and you know you are
Leeds….. you’re shit and you know you are
Leeds….. you’re shit and you know you are
Leeds….. you’re shit and you know you are
Leeds….. you’re shit and you know you are…… sing it loud
Berba is at Defocn left back
Watch out Evra
Costas – Yep that’s the one my friend….
is berba playing centre back?
MG – Agreed! And give Owen the last few minutes in goal!
Nunez….. you’re shit and you know you are
Nunez….. you’re shit and you know you are
Loving this Carrick-Berbatov central defence.
Controversial opinion here, but I think Valencia might be a better RB than either Da Silva.
berbs and carrick- the best CB’s in the world!!!!
Ridiculously easy. We could play with 6 players and Leeds still wouldn’t score.
Don’t get the logic behind sending Berba back to cb. Wasn’t Pogba a more obvious choice? I guess Fergie is trying ways to fit him into the team, lol.
easy Peasy lemon squeasy
Berba at CB. How committed is that? I love the guy! Feel the BERBALOVE!!!
Pogba, Fryes, Cole all on the side. Owen scoring twice, and we destroying scum with the most improbable team ever. It was a great night!
Good night to you all!
valencia is a beast should try him more often there
@ redrider
I dont know you mate, but my money would be on The Berb. I’m actually convinced he could make chess interesting to watch.
Berba-vision?
Fuck me, I need a patent lawyer, where’s Giggsy’s Lawyer when you need him?
Fletch,Valencia,Smalling,Jones,Rafael,Fabio.
What are our options at Right Back??
thrilling match in the first halt but turned a bit damp in the second. Fancy Berba and Carrick as CB
Simplicity itself a breeze well done lads.
Fryers played himself right into the CC starting line-up.
Pogba looked really nervous but put in a good shift.
@Fred
I’ve thought about it too, but I need to see Tony V play there for 90 minutes in a competitive game. He showed good signs as a RB last season at the Bridge, but didn’t look as comfortable last Sunday. A very good alternative to have tough.
Well done United. Leed Who? what…… WHAT?
Dimitar Berbatov – Godfather of them all. He can play midfield, CB and striker.
And Leeds isn’t coming up on this evidence, not if they cannot penetrate our 3rd choice CB pairing of Carrick-Berbatov.
I love it when a plan comes together!
ididnotzeeit
Think he’d have won before we start thinking about the first move.
Just when we thought we couldn’t love him more!
Think a partnership of Ando-Clev-Berba would be immense.
Carrick was excellent tonight. In fact the whole team were. But given the grief he gets, he deserves special mention.
Big up Mickey O tonight. Didnt really think he still has it. But he does. My bad.
Surely Valencia-Carrick-Berbatov-Fabio is the most attacking back four in the history of football.
Next please!
Fred
You have a point….. would say he is probably better than both Jones and Smalling in that position too!
Costas,Fred
Tony V’s physique and pace would make tip the scales over the twins.
But I’d rather see them fill out the full back spots. If they get stronger they’d be terrific.
@ MG
Bravo Team, mission complete, return to base.
Alpha team ready?
Mr C – I agree and I am also happy to eat my words and apologise to Michaael Owen. He showed his worth to the team, the squad and the club tonight.
Owen just said on Sky that Berbatov frequently plays CB in training. Interesting!
Welbeck gets injured…Chico comes straight back in…Chico gets injured….Welbeck comes straight in
Weeeeiiird
Hope we kill those bastard stokies:
My Line up:
DDG
Jones Rio Evans Evra
Nani Fletcher Anderson Young
Welbeck Rooney
—————————————–
When the hell is Vida back??? Where has Rio run off to???? When is Cleverley due back???
What Happened to Rafael? I forgot……
Stoke vs Spurs playing extra time!
Zelh, exactly the same thoughts going through my mind when I saw Cole coming on. He reminds me of the kid who plays on the playground during school lunch matches!
Before I say anything about the game- massive shoutout to the reds at the ground today. Thought they were absolutely fantastic. The first rendition of Ooh Aah Cantona- goosebumps. Amazing support lads. Carrick played quite well today, did his job with no fuss, played his way through trouble. Fabio- quiet, didnt see him going forward much, but why the need with 4 attackers to begin with? Fryers- sad that he had to come off, his crossfield balls were quiet good, like Carrick played his way out of defence. Park/Giggs were absolutely sensational today. The guy has still got it. Loved his celebration too, shut up the fans. Pogba was busy, but I loved how Berbatov (towards the end, in his CB position) just kept one touch passing the ball to him, as if to say, lets see what you can do then. Forwards were pretty good, Owen nuff said, Diouf played with strength, Macheda got into the game.
All in all, well done Reds, and as always- trust in Sir Alex Ferguson
Pogba was nervous, when he came on, but I did notice he always wanted the ball. Didn’t hide. Good asset to have in your locker. Can’t believe some were worried about Leeds! Fucking easy, as I predicted. We even took the piss at the end, with Berba in defense lol. Owen’s two goals were expertly taken. Still got the knack, in front of goal. That’s one scummy team dealt with, now for Stoke!
Makes sense that Berb would play in defence during training sessions. We have 6 other strikers, so Fergie has to fit him in somewhere. The guy deserves the medal for patience, lol.
If anyone tonight, Giggs possibly played his way into Alpha team with that 45 minute clinic he put on.
My $15/month for Setanta was just bought and paid for over the next 30 days by one Sir Ryan of Giggs.
Ando and Giggsy on the weekend please. Love Fletcher but man does Giggs ever look good.
Who am I kidding? The gaffer’s got this.
mikekelly – I wouldn’t go that far, but I certainly think Smalling seems to be a better RB than the twins atm, and Jones has looked very impressive. I like the twins a lot, I’m not bashing them, just calling it like I see it.
We’ve got to go all out for all trophies this season. It’s the only way all the players in our TWO first teams are going to get the game time they deserve.
Rio Ferdinand
“Berba loves it at centre back in training….thinks he is Berbenbaur!!”
Berbenbaur……..AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
More fatigue accumulating here for those Stoke wankers, after their long journey to and from Kiev last week and the hammering they took at Sunderland. I hope this 120+ minutes against Spurs will soften them up even more for us this weekend.
Controversial opinion here, but Owen could still do a job for England!
Berbenbauer
@Fred, I think the biggest difference between Smalling/Jones and Rafael/Fabio is in strength and tackling.
Smalling/Jones tackle very well and rarely commits any foul and they can shrugged off opponents easily.
Smalling/Jones also got skill and speed in them which is unusual for a big guy.
Overall, our team this year are very versatile, any player can play at least 2 positions and if all goalkeepers are injured probably somebody can step up easily
i bet berbenbaur could do a shift between the posts too…
Michael Owen. “Dimi plays CB all the time in training. Sure he was the first with this had up when we lot our CB”
Honestly? Looked composed as well. Well done Dimitar, well done United.
Well done to Fryers as well, very composed.
Well done Reds Podga’s did well great passed and Brillant goals by Owen And Berotov can play anywhere very good played well wish i could see Keane on the pitch. Great 2 see Welback on the team. The utd boss will have 2 make a hard choice 2 play Berotov or Owen on saturday. Second half was poor no goals but great game!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how many 38 year olds are out there who can pull off a nutmeg like that?
Next Carling cup game probable line up…
Berba
Valencia Carrick Park Giggs
De Gea Amos Lindegaard Pogba
Fabio Vidic
I was about to say what redrider did. I mean, with Berba’s uncanny ability to control any ball thrown his way, why not play him in goal? Nothing will get past him.
Defense sorted.
First team back 4: Jones Evans, Smalling, Evra.
Bench: Valencia, Rafael, Rio, Vida, Friers, Berbatov, Carrick Fabio,
Berbenbaur actually made a fucking fantastic play in the first 10 minutes too. Shot from point blank? Stopped. Rebound? None, cleared. Cheeky that guy, just a stealth, cool, collected cat. I’m pretty sure he just brushed his shoulder off like nothing happened.
Berbalove
Berbebaur – the keeper who refused to dirty his gloves.
I’ve a feeling Anders might start on Saturday. Just a hunch….
aimanunited – I agree. Jones and Smalling are very strong defensively and also very productive when they attack. They don’t get caught out as often as the twins seem to, and I can’t imagine they will spend as much time injured as the twins do either. They’re just more dependable all round, I would say.
ididnotzeeit
Ready!
Berbenbaur – the man who stopped Halley’s Comet with his boots.
Willie – no chance of that, could be seen as a huge show of no-confidence in De Gea and could have negative ramifications for him. The media vultures would seize upon it too. De Gea will play, no question about that.
Forest just equalized !! Not sure why but I have a soft spot for them…
No matter what side is put out, united cannot stop scoring
Injuries aside I see it as De Gea Premier League and CL knockout phase. Lindegaard CL Groups and FA Cup. Amos CC
Maybe a game gets swapped here or there but SAF seems to like all 3…which, makes me like all 3!
Berbalove!

What will make the difference in our away games this season is what United did at Bolton and what we did today. Once we start playing our football with pace and quick passing, there’s not a lot teams can do to deal with that. That’s what we have to do at Stoke. Play our football, score a couple of early goals and get out of sight. Don’t know how many games our defence will win us this season.
Fred – Just a hunch, I said.
He’s already left him out, so the media can say what they like. They don’t dictate our starting lineup. Fergie wasn’t afraid to leave Rooney out against Everton last season. Even if DDG starts, I’m sure he would cope. I might have it wrong. We’ll see on Saturday.
Wow, some game at the City ground.
Obertans flick in has won it for Newcastle surely. Well done son.
I thought everyone knew Tony V learnt that roll whilst injured
From the banks of the irlwell to sicily and we will fight fight fight for man utd fc
Costas – Some game indeed, felt sad for Forest though!
fucking buzzing always great to beat the leeds scum just need poyet now to make the week complete…….a birmingham brighton double would make me a fuckin happy happy man….!!!
Oberton did the business for the Geordies? Do we have a buy-back clause?
@Cedars
Sorry Forest didn’t at least take the game to penalties. Lost to a goal at the very end from Coloccini of all people. I hear Greening is playing for Nottingham now. How long has it been since we played them anyway? Since that 8-1 win in 99?
De Gea will play against Stoke, He was brilliant against Chelsea, Great against Bolton, Made fantastic saves vs Arsenal except one mistake, Spurs was easy and his debut has been forgotten.
De Gea’s confidence will soar with each appearance, can’t see stoke threatening us especially when we’ll have the ball for 70% of the time and will be giving them the rollercoaster of their life.
Hope Welbeck scores, he deserves some recognition for what he did to Arsenal -many forgot to praise him.
Good times ahead
Leeds fans singing Munich songs. Now throwing brinks at the united support. United fans being escorted under protection. Only at Leeds. Hope they are another yrs in the wilderness.
***50 yrs*****
Throwing brinks? Lol. Bricks!
Scummy cunts. Took a beating, now acting like little bitches.
Never heard of sheep throwing bricks before.
FletchTHEMAN: To be fair, I hear our fans have been up to some disgusting Istanbul chanting earlier on. Disgusting behaviour all around.
Leeds have always been scum, its a pity some of ours actually descend to that level.
Fletch The man
Rotten horrible bastards there the real bitter bastards and no mistake
fuck off back to the championship you classless cuntbags
gd performance tonite lads played well carrick was excellent slotting in at centre back the lad fryers done well got a gd left peg some good passes

get home safe reds

istanbul chants well we got 30 years to make up on the bastards for singing about munich 2 wrongs dont make a right i know
but these classless bastards wouldnt understand any diffrent there lot nearly had a plane crash a few years back and it still doesnt stop the bastards singing rgds our boys
there horrible fuckers and lads from most clubs would agree
get back to league one
19
@FletchTHEMAN – I agree with Mahesh, our fans were singing “Istanbul” at them, I don’t know if it was in response to Munich chants but it’s not very bright tbh.
Costas – If my memory is correct that 8-1 was the last time we played them…..Such a shame in a way, a team that won all the top prizes against the odds are like many others washed up and finished…
Had without doubt the best English manager of our time….
Wow, you rate Steve McLaren highly!
I don’t mind Forest at all and have wanted them back in the PL for a while now. Certainly don’t feel that way about Leeds though! x:
McClaren, sorry.
I sord off knoo I had spelled it wrong… and indeed I had… I think…
Some lad in the forum said a United fan might have been stabbed. Not confirmed, now. Crazy, if true.
Fred
lol Good one my friend….I did say ‘had’ mind you
Nothing and no one compares to Leeds!
@Cedars
I thought that was Terry Venables.
I definitely miss Forest in the top flight though. I’d gladly take them over Wigan or Stoke.
papertalk all about istanbul-chants and of course no one heard the Munich-chants.
ashamed of the United-fans who chanted about istanbul.
fuck me mate txt me and said getting back 2 the the car tonight was like that old film the warriors having 2 fight your past gangs to make it back home !!!
lets hope there just rumours Mr Rednut and all the boys get back safe
Costas – Stoke yes, but Wigan nooo! 6 guaranteed points every season!
Night all and I hope non of our boys got hurt tonight …..
Night Cedars.
Seems to have been some thugish behavior from United fans as well.. One was apparently waving a Turkey Shirt. That would have taken some planning. Just sayin.
But Bricks, thought that era was behind us. Sad.
Scan74 – Hope so mate.
Anyone who hasn’t seen Damn Utd should watch it
My time watching Utd live was through the 70′s so Agro pretty well happened evey game especially
Away so the violence doesn’t bother me different era I guess
Rooney
mame B Berbatov Welbeck macheda
Owen Keane King Cofie

—————————————————–
Rio
Fab Keane Evans Evra
Rafael Jones Brown Fryers
Smalling Vidic
Wonder if we’ll see De Gea in the Scholes role at some point
Half hoped we’d see Kiko and Diouf used on the Wings this season, Diouf especially has shown he has the energy and discipline to cover ground from wide, but really wasn’t expecting that line up tonight. Valencia at right back again? Truth be told it did have a touch of brilliance to it, even though I did worry about that back four at Elland Rd! Still, the manager knows how to keep everybody ticking over while getting results. That goal by Giggs was something else. No complaints and good to see so many get a run out in a “big” game. Getting knocked out by West Ham 4-0 in the snow was a fucked up experience, absolutely gutted with that as it ended a lot of appearances for the youngsters, so hopefully the Squad can sort it out this year and have a real run in a real competition.
*That goal by Owen
Hey hey – what a game!!!
Impressed: Fryers, Fabio, Diouf, Cole plus experienced players Owen, Giggs, Valencia, Berba, Carrick
More to come: Pogba, Machaeda – did not really think we saw them at their best, Pogba looked really nervous, seen him play better in the youth team and res, stage fright is understandable. However, even from watching him in reserves, the kid seems to have hit a wall for now.
Park, battled away, seemed frustrated, some great break up play.
Second half not as great to watch, a lot of keep ball at the back would have loved to see more attacking as Leeds were run off their legs at the end and the strikers could have filled their boots with a few good crosses in the box.
Berba is clearly not a lead or in the box striker, however, the position he is best at is Rooney’s and I can’t see Rooney being shifted. However, on todays performance maybe a midfield option? Given time to play you see his all round ability.
Wee hours in the morning and i’m typing.
Oh sexy Berbs. He plays anywhere. Love the man.
Yeah Istanbul chants not good but those dirty cunts have been calling us Munichs for years. Our away support tonight was top drawer. Full repetoire of songs. That cunt Smith said you have to praise the home fans. Fuck off they were outsunng from first minute. Fuck the dirty cunts. Outplayed by a weird team selection too. Great performance.
Berbatov’s a van Gogh of a footballer and despite not getting much chances to start and score goals, he still puts the team first and is willing to play centre-back for the good of the team. I really really really really wish something big and wonderful happens for him in football.
well done lads
pogba seems a tad nervous out there but it’s so justified, he’s young and is under so much pressure to perform, seeing how everyone’s hyping him up.. fryers looked pretty good though! carrick and valencia at the back.. genius.
