just for anybody that keeps signing the praises of fellaini i thought i would post this for people to see what they are actually raving about. every body knows that united are the hardest working team in the league and all our players work their asses off to get the ball if he haven't got it. well watch this video from about 52 seconds and you will see why we should not buy fellaini. He's a lazy bastard not worthy of the united shirt and i will be gutted if we buy him. his lazyness allowed norwich to score their first goal.

Am one of the fiercest critics of Danny, and not just because of his lack of goals but general end product i.e final pass, over running the ball e.t.c.
But I noticed how tidy he was in possession during the Charity Shield and against Swansea( bar the dilly dally for the swans goal), I believe if he keeps working hard goals will come . May be playing with RVP rather than Rooney will better for him, fingers crossed bring on chelsea

But I do not know who is seeing things more drunk, souness raving about how chelsea are stronger now than 2005 that mourinho can build sides like fergie, or hoddle thinks shitty and chelsea will contest the title and not united. I have no idea how he thinks chelsea have a stronger squad than united, lsouness does not even mention united, he just snobbishly ignores united like they are nothing, despite winning 4 1

Welbeck certainly impressed last night, his overall play was on point. Except for a few unusual careless ball control from him, he's bound for the top and if keeps working hard on pulling off the raw ability in him then I don't anything stopping him from prevailing

Souness quote, I think chelsea and city are my fave, they have bought well, and with mourinho back, them 2 are my favorites to win the title, and they will contest the title. He never even mentions united, its like watching a troll get a job on skysports. To not even give united the time of day is laughable, look at that united experience, ferdinand vidic evra carrick and giffs, 33 league title medals between the 4, united will contest the title fact

He;seas squad are virtually the same with no world beating additions. I fail to see how they are going to improve much on their last crap league campaign. city have just bought to many players untested in the premier league so they have no stability. infact they certainly havent replaced tevez and balotelli so i can't see them being much better either. United for the title again with games to spare.

A home debut for zaha is on the cards
Good riddance, I tired of cunts bashing our players. In those he would likely have under performed for the abuses of nuts like NBI

WilliamAR - any side with DDG ferdinand vidic evra carrick rooney welbeck if he scores more goals and RVP in your starting lineup, are title contenders, the fact the media darling rooney could walk into the chelsea lineup, and united score 4 goals without rooney on the scoresheet, are capable of winning the league

The best thing about Welbeck's second goal was the confidence he had to go for the lob. He needs to take his shots in order to become the complete striker. He has all other attributes. Nothing would please me more than to see a local lad become the main man at United!

anyone watching chelsea vs hull? The game is being played in hull's half, chelsea created 15-20 goal opportunities(1st half only), 75% possession and really good passing, playmaking.

Chelsea midfielders are very close to Barca/Real Madrid.
Boy, I wonder when did our ManU ever manage such stats in 5-6 years? ManU don;t play attacking-passing football anymore.

I feel sad watching our team rely on long balls and no linkup passes. They should take a leaf from Chelsea MF to learn how to play passing/attacking football and it looks attractive too.

@IDWT

I really cant see chelsea or city keeping up with us this year just like last year. we're far too good with or without rooney. I'm watching them at the moment and to be honest it says nothing to me. Hull are going to be the league's whipping boys so chelsea haven't shown me any improvement. a missed penalty, their first goal was bad defending by a crap team and their second goal was a 30 yarder that all good goalies would save from a free kick created by a diving cheating idiot in torres.

Don't get carried away by what you're watching. Chelsea are playing against the team who are going to finish bottom by a mile so it's easy for chelsea to look good against them. It's like a practice match. United will be just as comfortable against hull if not more clinical.

WilliamAR - I will go by that logic, if united keep rooney, and sign a CM player. Has only one more top class midfielder will see us be seen has title fave in my eyes. I just feel the rooney and RVP axis gives us the edge, much like the ronaldo rooney tevez axis did

Chelsea midfielders are no where near barca/ real midfielders. If you watched the pre season game between chelsea and barca you'd know they are a class below. The reason they llok impressive is because they are playing a nothing team. You'll see the same stat's when city, liverpool play hull. Possession football is has never been uniteds way, so you'll probably never see those stats. United control the game but try to attack quickly and so you'll always find a lot of turn over. Even when playing complete shit teams, you'll find possesion will rarely go beyond 60%. We don't keep the ball for keeping ball's sake. We always try to do something.
So to answer you're question, no, united will never have thise stats because that's just not the way we play. Chelsea just won 2-0, despite all those impressive stats.

Mourinho has got really dull, I never found it interesting when the classless cunt first turned up in the PL, massively aided by the funds of roman, calling himself the special one, took advantage of the fact united were under transition and the likes of rooney and ronaldo were developing, he won the league twice. He's turned up again with fergie retiring, sniffing the chance of being top man in the league. United are heading towards building another powerful team and hopefully he'll be sent packing

i avnt commented much ova da summer. mainly due to the amount of trolls an brain dead idiots who no nothing bout football. i cant remember da lst time i was so happy wit a win. brillant frm the boys and im delighted for moyes. this was a very good swansea team who already had two competive matches under their belt. i thought this was goin to b a tricky one but the boys looked really good f we can keep dat back 5 fit an carrick we should av no problems an let the boys up front look after the rest. looking ahead to chelsea i wud bring n kagawa an drop giggs an i wud giv cleves another start no point dropping em straight away he needs to get consistency an the only way he will is by playing regularly. him an ando really av a big chance to cement a place n da team since we av signed noone thus far. i think kagawa can help cleves by giving em mre options to pass forward instead of back imo. p.s to the idiot who said sell kagawa back to dortmund wat are u on about u bellend? kags b4 rooney for me all day long an i think he can play on the left f we get a DM let him float moyes wil get da best out of em he done a similar thing wit piennar at everton let em float around.

samuel. Nail on head. This Chelsea side not a patch on 05. Terry. Carvalho. Makalele. Essien. Frank. Drogba the spine. This side is a bunch of ponces. No power like his previous side. Dogshit defence. No width. Won't play Mata. Fuck all up top. Not clinical. They're there for taking next Monday.

samuel - I love how souness says he did well considering the circumstances at Madrid, the board at Real give him all the freedom possible, picked his own team, bought his own players, they give him more space than previous managers, heck mourinho droed casillas so he had all the freedom and he failed aart from the head to head games against barca. I thought Madrid were very generous to mourinho, yet souness makes excuses for mourinho to make his point. Never have I seen a time when Madrid let the manager have freedom, with that squad mourinho had, he had done an awful job

Samuel and asking Eric

I agree with both of you, I have seen Hull city creating a hell of troubles for the rent boys and Maureen looked pretty worried, now the special cunt will realize how much premier league has been evolved and no game will be an easy ride from now, just hope we will teach him a lesson on Sunday.

King Eric - that 05 team were powerful and gritty, knew what to do and were efficient and experienced, this team they currently have is a threat going forward but united could still dispatch them if united grind them down in midfield and stop their floating players whilst embarking on trademark counter attacks. There's a reason why they're chasing rooney, he would give them that extra drive and cutting edge and united must not allow that.

Mourinho has all the media as lap dogs, all having their mouth open whilst he urinates into them. Moyes should be ready and prepared as these media aim is to derail united.

King Eric - I looked at that united bench, lindergaard smallen fabio anderson zaha kagwa rooney, that is a terrifying bench esp zaha kagwa and rooney. Compare that with the chelsea bench they do not match us. Like I say, first look at that backline, ferdinand vidic evra alone that is united 1994 experience, that is mixed with the united future in DDG and jones. But like I say, any side that has Rooney and RVP in their squad, are huge fave to win the league

Bit of improvement from hull side, they got maureen nerves at the end of the game. just too bad they didnt create enough chanches on chavs penalty box. Imho maureen decision to put ramirez sit deep wouldnt help the chavs as they'd missing his energy and tenacy.

IDWT - they always make excuses for mourinho, can't do no wrong. He was handed a big squad, a ronaldo at his pomp, more money to tap up the best players and yet still fucked it up. I think he still thinks the PL is the same since he left, dispatching hull comprehensively won't prepare for what's coming but every game is a battle now, no easy 3points and hopefully his arrogance will be dented.

The way media and pundits like souness and other fucktards were talking, I thought moureen's Chelsea would destroy Hull City today. No, they didn't. they were decent first but sucked shit second half. And no they are no barcelona their team has no balance our terrific counter attacks will expose their shit defense.

Calm the fuck down you twats, we are the favs here, chelsea will be tested on monday, expect moureen to cry like a girl afterwards.
