Man Utd News 24/7

















So no ronaldo
No Tevez
No Ribery…cough cough bribery
No Benz
No title?
Is it just me or all the articles on A Kick in the Grass always negative and predicting the worst for Manu over the last 3-4 months. has it been hacked its just sad to here so much of negativity coming from one of my fave blogs…
So no Ronny
So no Tevez
So no Ribery
So no Benzema
Wayne Rooney, Dimitar Berbatov= 4th title in a row.
I know what will solve all our problems, we need to bring back Becks! Sign him up in November and give him the number 7 back!
Macheda is god
have you no fuckin faith
my Eric if united lose there first 5 games next season they can still win the league so you need to forever get behind them when dippers think lfc they think gerrard when rent boys think chelsea they think sir John of Terry barcarole messi real/city money Newcastle sherrar when a Manchester united fan thinks Manchester united they should think Billy flokes running down the wing against real Madrid ,the sir Matt busby way, sir matt huggin a young Ryan Higgs after they won there and his first of 11 premierships, you think bad history and tragidy you think making amazing history and glory. I wrote yesterday that Ronaldo should bea legend but is he a keane best law charlton Duncan mcclair Bruce sparky the great Dane whiteside robson cantona no but I don’t know how old you are or how long you’ve been watching united but Manchester united have survived without them. Ronaldo is gone so so is the circus tevez is gone so so is the bad attitude Manchester united are still here . They will never die. And if your thinking is your writing off united next season well a good job for you is writing for the mirror. B e l i e v e isn’t a catchfraze it’s not a marketing ploy it’s a way of life for some people, me James Pickering, and you posting stupid things every day like we have to get this guy cause the mirror said so ronaldos gone we’re bollixed for goal. I hear it at the end of every season. Check your history books who’s united record scorer in Europe then check whAt we won his last 3 seasons then check whY united won the 3seasons after thY.get behind your team and just because sky sports say we wanted benzema and real got him to help build the world greatest clusterfuck doesn’t mean thas whY’s happen. Get behind your team believe in united and not whAt your told to believe. The media are trying to make crisis story but fuck them
Si
Too old perhaps?
6 months of Beckham, a final farewell? Jeez the guy would play for us for free…FERGIE FERGIE SIGN HIM UP!
Im ready for a couple of barren seasons lads, unless fergie pulls a couple of gems out of somewere, but still utd till i die.
Your right GHTT.
BELIEVE
Beckham? Come on…be realistic.
I just read that Landon Donovan was criticizing Becks harshly for not putting any effort in his game at LA Galaxy. He doesn’t show up for matches when he’s injured or taking out a ban and doesn’t seem to give a fuck. Did Donovan really think Becks went to USA because of the “great” football that they play over there? The passion is lost, Hollywood fame and fortune is now more important…
That was a big rant but it wasn’t a shot at you . It was just just this bollox about we’re done now has noone heard of Rooney ha ha ha it’s just bollox a dipper fan used the words next year is liverpools year yesterday and people believe that as much as united will fail next season. 4pm a row and for some free money 16/1 Rooney top goal scorer
Spot on as usual GHTT. What is with the fucking negativity from United “fans”. We have been here before and we are more than capable of doing 4 in a row. People are too spoilt and have been too used to success. I started supporting them in 82/83 so I have seen the barren times. Have some faith lads!
People forget to mention that the dippers are probably gonna lose Alonso and /or Mascherano. The Rentboys are looking at fucking Turnbull and Tuncay and Sturridge.???
4 in a row.
United lost tevez and Ronaldo so they won’t win the league? They can someone tell me who will and why. Cause I know why united will won it
Did i say take the cash 4 vida, no way we cant lose any more players. That baldy guy hunter says ribery wont go 2 england because of the weather.
Not that I’m saying we need a big name signing, but I want us to invest with the money we got for Ronaldo, not use it for Glazier’s debt. I will be very annoyed if we will not use it to purchase players, we’ve only spent about 16 mills of the 80 we got. We can use the money to buy promising youngsters, like we did when we got Ronaldo. The fact that United were in the end willing to pay 25 mills for Tevez says that we’re willing to open our wallets to bring in a striker. Sir Alex is without a doubt on the lookout for a striker, perhaps in that price range. There’s still 3 weeks till the pre-season tour starts…plenty of time, and 2 months till the transfer window closes.
According to “sources” we are after Gignac and Kacar. Kacar is another Serb 6 feet plus and a defensive midfielder. It says on Wikipedia that we bid 12million Euro’s in June “to secure his services”.
This Kacar? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvq–BEySKk
Seems to be a Serbian invasion at United if that’s true. Vidic, then Tosic, A.Ljajic in January and now Kacar. This Kacar fellow sounds interesting though, perhaps what we need to strengthen our midfield in the constant absence of Hargreaves.
Fuck me one minute every player we sign has to speak Portuguese, now thay have to be Serbian!
Who does Kacar play for?
To be fair,ghtt,when you think of Real Madrid,you think of Gento,di Stefano,Puskas,Raul,Zidane and his goal against Bayer Leverkusen(Berba played in that final),and not money.
Gojko Kacar plays for Hertha Berlin. He’s 22 years old, defensive midfielder, very versatile, can also play as a defender and on the right side of the pitch (perhaps similar to Hargo?). He’s 1.83 m tall (6 ft 0 in).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gojko_Ka%C4%8Dar
Is this a report a rumor of a fact about kacar . Theboogie I was talkin about if they are thinking right now it has to be money
Oh,ok.
Why is everyone writing Hargo off already?RVN had the same problem,look what he did after recovering.
Word on the street is that we are talking to Michael Owen…….Not sure if anyone has posted this already as out of my office and on my Blackberry.
I don’t think anybody is writing Hargo off, we just don’t know for sure when he’ll come back from his injury. He’s a very good player and we could surely use him, I hope he recovers soon.
Actually no GHTT.
I Defend my previous comment.
Obviously I did not count Rooney and Dimitar berbatov out of my colouring book
BUT
We need new players to commit.
And real MAD-rid are taking the players
that kinda…takes some pressure on you..
Especially you know there are dangerous teams that can harm you for not having a team with a great caliber.
NO
i am not saying the Wazza and berb are not good But you know we need more amunition
Possibly I don’t respect Antonio valencia For his transfer..
But benzema slipped out of hands into the Mafia team
So that now puts you into a possession that says
WHO THE FUCK ARE WE GONNA BUY?!
WHOEVER THE FUCK SIR ALEX WANTS!!
My god!
Is it really time..for torres to step up?
theboogeyman
)
I want to know who
I can’t live without my mind rested
we have a good player apart Berba and wazza
(And kiko
BRUNO?!?WHAT THE FCUK?!?
You live in Manchester,don’t you??Go to Sir Alex’s house and wait outside till he tells you.
Lol ok i start singing
FERGIE SIGN ME UP
You do that.We do need another centreback if we don’t get Dodo.
Your name is macheda is god but yet you say we need new player so on the regually we have a guy called aigAlex is god which I say he believes but your name is a youth player 1 start 2subs is god. But you don’t want to rely on the youth and the players we have Valencia is all we need a proven winger that let’s Rooney play where he plays best . Change your name or change your views on united 100%need to buy. Because they don’t now sing with meoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh in the summer of 95 oh oh oh
I think with got a pre contract sorted with dodo in January it’s just the final action has to be forwarded like with the twins
Ronnie himself believes that Rooney will replace his goals and that we’ll win number 19 next year.
Nice.I’ve never seen him play,but from what I’ve heard,he’s an excellent defender.
@ Gudjohnsen
rubbish, i been speaking to them yanks they say none of it true and that his just jealous of becks, i’d have him back anyday myself.
GHTT
I have noticed lately your being rather unfair with me.
Fine i change my name
(thank you mr ghtt, “build the world greatest clusterfuck” was just the perfect phrase i´ve been looking for all the time.)
Actually I change my mind.
I keep this name because I am fond of it.
I have noticed latley your being rather unfair with me.
Here comes Owen! (via Sky Transfer Centre)
14.54 Sky Bet has revealed there has been a major plunge on Michael Owen joining Manchester United on a free transfer. His odds on moving to Old Trafford have been cut from 20/1 to 7/4, with Sky Bet’s Mike Triffitt saying: “With Real Madrid hoovering up several high profile targets, United are running out of options to fill the void left by the departure of Ronaldo and Tevez and Owen is a cheap option. We’ve had a steady stream of bets on free agent Owen joining United today. A move to United should suit Owen, who wants to get back into the England squad and will feel he has a better chance with a higher profile club.”
i ave had a friend tell me that he as been seen at OT for a medical…. from benzema to Owen….. my god!
I can’t imagine Owen would pass a medical, right? Please?
We are going to sign an Owen who is injury prone and was good in Munich once………… haven’t we been there before!
I’d rather put my dog instead of owen as a striker!
Good speed.. good with the ball.. and rarley gets sick!
If nowadays players get to play for the team they ‘dream’ of playing for then y dont v go n snap up Alexis Sanchez…he dreams of playing for United yeah our Manchester Beloved United Family
Pls Fergie go n get him no more wasting of time v all fans are desperate for some gr8 news pls hear us! Pls hear us! ONE LOVE ONE UNITED!

So when manchester united are involved they do anything they can
But when some real problems
(like the vuvzela from the confed cup)
He scratchs his balls and does nothing having the excuse that
“i can’t do anything poor me
What cheats.
So that means no Dodo.
I’m not massively surprised by the Owen link. I think Fergie is prepared to spend high on a player he feels merits the bid but I don’t see him throwing cash around for the sake of it. He puts a lot of faith, not only in his young players, but in the education passed to them from older members of his squad. Owen is a player I have never liked but for £40k a week and a free transfer I’d say Fergie is considering a punt.
There’s no strikers out there who really fit the bill so it’s not worth throwing 20-25 mill on a stop-gap solution. Owen or Huntelaar (Preferably the latter) would be a decent solution to back-up Rooney & Berb along with blooding Macheda & Welbeck more & more.
I’d rather Fergie spent his money on a central midfield player, not sure who is the only problem but with the scouting system Fergie has at his disposal I’m sure it’s not a problem.
If all else fails; lets get the young guys out there and give them a real go – Da Silvas (Could Fabio be considered for the left-side of midfield?), Possebon, Anderson, Nani, Tosic, Ljajic, Welbeck, Macheda, Eckersley, Petrucci etc etc etc. I know it’s not working for Arsenal but we have our oldies around for another season so why not integrate the young lads while they’re still around.
alright guys, im throwing in one player i think we’ve all forgotten about
and he’s good and full of potential aswell
BEN ARFA!
he wud be cheap, no one wants to sign him and he’d def be willing to sit on the bench!
wat do u think?
Petrucci and kilo play up a storm together
i cant help but feel as though fergie/gill have fucked this up… if fergie was interested in benzema then he should have done a deal with madrid when the price was agreed for ronaldo. i personally believe that we need more bodies in central midfield (de rossi and sneijder anyone?) as well as cover on the left wing (maybe ashley young?) then we shouldn’t need more strikers as long as berbatov and rooney (for once) stay fit with wellbeck and kiko as backup. expect to see much more of welbeck in particular next season… on another the other hand if there is any truth in united going after owen then ive lost all faith in the great man!
Some good news but off topic. Michael Sheilds has been REFUSED a pardon!!!
I see they were taking the piss again on Talkshite tonight. Getting callers to phone in with who United can buy. Cue the usual shite of Darren Anderton etc. They will end up with egg on their faces as usual. Cunts.
If we are looking to the future for a quality midfielder, we should go for the young German boy Ozil. Looks top class..
Hi fellow reds, like the idea about Kacar, and i think we are all happy about Valencia, not so sure about Owen. like jig and most of you said Alex is not going to spend just becouse the cash is there, got to be the right player. And its got to be someone who will pull on the shirt with pride. I remember a player being a hand full last season called Hulk? hope we do get a big name cos this lot over in spain are starting to get on my tits Madrid this, spanish league that
I thought that all through the U-21′s. Ozil looked excellent. He ran the show in the final and I think he got player of the tournament.
Here is the wildest of wildcard signings. Landon Donovan.
just looked at spanish tv, Fabiano, Huntelaar to man utd, cant see it and it changes every half hour over here.
Doherty, good call about Ozil he looked very impressive.
Maby if we go for Aguero, Forlan might come back with him?
