    Just when I started to think he couldn’t top “when Park outshone Euro 2012 Andrea Pirlo”, the author let out “with the player left out of Ferguson’s 2009 Champions League final matchday party”.

    Ridiculous nonsense this Park memorabilia. Distorted memories, false facts, dodgy opinions, anything your mind desires.

    If I remember anything about the 2009 final, it’s Park running around Xavi and Iniesta without a glimmer of hope of reaching the ball. And then you had the replay 2 years later in case you missed it the first time. Magic player, though.

    Twitter going a bit loopy about Lucas Moura, but Sao Paulo claim there are still no bids.
    Silly Season.

    Antiscouser will keep every other right minded red off this thread with his tirades which are getting cumbersome and nauseating.Play on boy-the one man guitar.

  4. King Eric says:

    Do one AntiScouser. All you do is piss and moan about United. Show Park some fucking respect.

    Time for big man Blackett to nail down a place.

  5. CedarsDevil says:

    Anti Scouser is actually a scouser, bin dipper in disguise

  6. Harish says:

    Antiscouse

    You are fucking ass hole. If you don’t like park shut the hell up. No need to keep on moaning

  7. mara says:

    I red that Real is total in Modric…and they are not chaseing Martinez so maybe we have a chance to get him. with him and Kagawa we have everything…I know i said that 109 times but i would get offer for Eriksen and Imuniain from Bilbao…or someone from their middle…no one is chaseing them…so we can get them.
    I just hope we wont try to get them when everyone else start that too

  8. mara says:

    And btw i heard that Lucas Moura is great…so maybe he will be better replacement than Modric or Hazard…

  9. Georgejoseph says:

    I’m beginning to feel what all arsenal fans have been going through. The lack of investment in top quality players is now a joke. Are we really going to have any hope in CL and PL with current squad . My friends there are two hopes, bob hope and no hope and bob hope has been dead for years. We are going to struggle to compete with city and Chelsea .

  10. wayne says:

    I can’t believe the fuckwits are coming out in force and the season hasn’t even started yet,it’s already doing my head in

  11. Costas says:

    Of course the AntiAntiScouser ignores Park’s performances against Barcelona in 08. And for the record, Park played as a winger in 09. It was Carrick, Anderson and Giggs against Xavi, Iniesta and co. Same goes for the 2011 final more or less.

    But never let facts get in the way of a biased plastic.

  12. slim says:

    antiscouser

    oh fuck off already. never seen some one so full of shit on ROM. Xavier ran rings round.
    messi rose higher than vidic for a header, will you be calling foe his head and ridiculing his time at United as well.

  13. King Eric says:

    wayne – Well said. What the fuck is wrong with these nut cases.

  14. King Eric says:

    George – Can’t compete with Chelsea? Yeah with their squad full of over the hill cunts, Drogba gone etc. Oh but they have that little prick Hazard so will storm the league. Why are folk moaning before a ball has even been kicked? Plenty of time yet.

  15. Jeet says:

    Light a j, Wayne :)

    Did I tell you I got something awesome? Goes like a dream with a single malt and the Stones ;)

  16. NEWD says:

    Never heard about Blackett, but now I’m looking forward to see him on the tour. Maybe he could be the leftback alternative to Evra? I don’t know. Has anyone seen him play in the reserves and can say something about him?

  17. TheCANTONA says:

    Dont feed the trolls its useless.
    unless u can find where he lives & smack his gob with your feet.

  18. Jixie says:

    NEWD…never heard of Blackett? Straight up mate….u are no fan of my club!!!!
    Georgejoseph…..if you think the road to success is the City model…why dont u go support them.
    These we want success now now now now small minded people are winding me up….sorry!!!!!

  19. NEWD says:

    @Jixie: ;-) , it’s great to insult people in the anonymity of the internet… no small minded people would do that.

  20. utd_fc says:

    More and more reports linking us to this Lucas Moura kid. Honestly after Anderson, i’m not sure i want more Brazilian midfielders. They can never really make the transition from their wimpy ass league to the epl.

  21. mara says:

    Utd_fc brazilians can make transmision but we are buying the.wrong one….first we have to buy right one…

  22. utd_fc says:

    Mara

    What would the right one be then?

  23. 911_DEViL says:

    Moura should be the right one
    I have seen a lot of him and he would come good for us.
    And yes I agree with the op on saying that we have bought the wrong players, or we are just not patient enough to wait for this kids to prove their worth.
    Anderson hasn’t done badly imo, still he can make a break through
    If you take a gamble always must expect to lose
    Thus specifically meaning that our approach in the market of buying young players with potentials its not always a win, win outcome
    Others do fulfil their potentials but most of the times we are bound to get some djemba X3 alike

  24. utd_fc says:

    a 30 million gamble? No thanks.

  25. 911_DEViL says:

    I’m not saying that we should gamble on him mate
    But if you are buying players of bellow 20 years of age, doesn’t matter how much you pay, its still a gamble, others might turn up good in future and others might not.
    But in moura’s case its totally different cause he doesn’t one who could deteriorate from there

  26. 911_DEViL says:

    Seems one…

  27. 911_DEViL says:

    if the rumours about him are true, oh man
    I’ve got high hopes for this boy, cause he seems to be the missing piece to the puzzle
    He’s a specialist in initiating counter attacks
    Since man utd style or rather saying
    Since our latest success came while playing counter attacking football and it seems sir alex is trying to bring that back to the fore…
    If we do get the lad haha the bitters will know fear nothing much in their miserable lives than OLD TRAFFORD.

  28. Jixie says:

    NEWD…..you’re right and I am sorry. I was in a really bad mood yesterday and sort of lost it. Us Reds gotta stick together and kick some MCFC proverbial butt!!!! Have a good day buddy.

  29. mara says:

    Utd_fc we know wich one are not the right one, doesn t we? :-)
    i will tell you names…but first…explane me how every big club like Barca, Real, Milan…can buy good brazilian player and we cant? Maybe it is problem about us, our playing sistem – maybe when you buy player like Ronaldhino, you need to change something….
    right one? Thiago Silva (Milan), Ronaldhino (he went to Barca), Kaka (he is injured now, but in our club maybe that wouldnt happend), Roberto Carlos..i mean they are plenty players that playing for national team and play in Brazil. Brazilians are not guilty that we have no money for proven players. But fact that others…like Porto buying successfully, and other clubs…shows that is not problem in brazilian players, but us.

  30. mara says:

    GeorgeJoseph…agree…it is nit about buying like crazy, it is paying maybe little bit more than we should if that player is something that is missing. You won t pay five players 40 mils each…but one that miss…that is reasonable…but we have no money and we know why.

  31. denton davey says:

    Parryheid @ 11:13: “Martinez.”

    Agreed.

    I wrote in a few days ago suggesting the Michael Carrick is UTD’s most “irreplaceable” player; Javi Martinez would be a great addition – not only as a box-to-box companion for Carrick but also because he’s shown – last year in La Liga – that he’s a very good defensive player, too. As they say, Javi Martinez “ticks all the boxes”

    Scoring goals wasn’t UTD’s problem last year – controlling the tempo of the game against strong midfielders undermined TheLads. And, of course, the injury blight – and those five points “lost” to shitty officiating.

  32. parryheid says:

    denton davey.
    Exactly that would make a huge difference to our midfield,more than capable of filling Fletcher’s role as I fear he will never return to the team.

  33. sam says:

    our squad isn’t that bad…and people who think we are going to get martinez, modric or moura i want to believe you but its most likely bullshit.

  34. mara says:

    Sam
    the worst thing is that you are right :-)

  35. parryheid says:

    I’m not saying that I want Modric or Moura.but I am saying I would like us to get Martinez.do you have a reason you think we wont get him?

  36. utd_fc says:

    parryheid

    couldn’t agree more. martinez would be a fantastic addition to the squad

  37. utd_fc says:

    but in all likeness he’ll prob end up at barca

  38. parryheid says:

    utd_fc

    They apparently want him as a defender,he is looking for Biscuits position,never going to happen so unlikely to go there and it would be very odd if United weren’t interested in him.

  39. mara says:

    We will have interest in Martinez, Inmunian…when they will cost 50 mils :-)

  40. utd_fc says:

    no need for munain. we have enough wingers

  41. Zibbie says:

    can not post on the 600+ Park thread.

  42. mara says:

    Utd_fc…i obviously said a wrong one…in the Bilbao s middle was one guy, who played well…i thought is was muniain…
