Manchester United

[Rambo]

The ball got stuck under his feet. Missing alot of chances? You mean the chances from well outside the area? Name me another United player who could have hit the shot he did that Cech saved?
aite the newcastle match and the birmingham match(he should have had atleast a hat trick in that match)

man we got our asses whopped BIG TIME!! our defence needs to fix up

[vanNistelrooy]

man we got our asses whopped BIG TIME!! our defence needs to fix up

Easily done...

Vidic :realmad:
Silvestre :realmad:

Get those tossers out.

[-Jamster-]

Vidic and Evra were a waste of money. We need to buy some young, class defenders to replace Silvestre and a]someone in midfiled

[skullverine]

Looks like a broken foot. When he went down he went straight for his foot.
that's sucks for him & england then

doesn't that take 3 months to fully recover from it?

[Rambo]

Easily done...

Vidic :realmad:
Silvestre :realmad:

Get those tossers out.
i was thinking the same about vidic but maybe he needs time to get used to the prem, we should see next season, i dont know why ferguson started vidic over brown its just crazy. silvestre definatly he is just plain shit

[vanNistelrooy]

Neville----Ferdinand----Brown----Heinze

Easily our best defense. Vidic or Evra do not appear as they are not good enough.

Not a bad campaign, if we do finish 2nd, seeing as the midfield partnership of Keane and Scholes (for the last 7+ years) hasn't been there most of this season.

yes that is our best defence i feel sorry for evra though because when heinze comes back he gonna be sitting on the bench and evra is a good left back.

as for finishing 2nd, i have no doubt in my mind that we wont finish 2nd becuase liverpool need us to lose our last 2 games to go 2nd because we have a supirior goal difference

[vanNistelrooy]

Well funnier things have happened...look at Arsenal!

[Hunter]

At least he left on crutches, thats a plus side to the injury. But in all seriousness, if Rooney misses the World Cup England certainly don't have a cat in hell's chance of going anywhere. Todays performance was piss poor and we had no bloody structure. Our defence was awful, especially Silvestre when defending the corner which produced Gallas a goal, disgusting.

[]NikE[]

Whats with fergie constantly putting Ruud on the bench in favour of saha! i dunno if im the only one but id of rather ruud started! he's clearly the better and more consistent of the two! especially in big games!

[greenegg]

Sorry to poke in Utd fans but whats up with Paul Scholes and will he be back next year.

[]NikE[]

yeh schole's is getting there ;) he'll be back!

[Guillermo]

Sorry to poke in Utd fans but whats up with Paul Scholes and will he be back next year.

He's still got eye problems, but yeah should be back next season.

[greenegg]

What is actually wrong then. Do they know

A good tribute to Alan Smith, Not great quality and not for the faint hearted.

[Hunter]

What is actually wrong then. Do they know

Apparently its one of the veins blocking a passage. So basically he can't properly see out of his eye because a vein is blocking his view, nice eh ?

I'd rather see Saha playing over Ruud at the moment though, Ruud's touches today weren't impressive mind you Saha's never are. But hes got pace unlike Ruud. Although they will both be playing on Monday against Boro so no arguments.

[]NikE[]

Nice little tribute there to smithy! not heard much from him in a while! hope all is cool ;)

[Singh]

Fucking awful so much for the whole we are not going to let chelsea beat us and win the title against us today....

Silvestre has to be shown the exit and also vidic and o'shea. Saha was awful all game and he knew that himself. It was rounded off by our best player getting injured, though no hard feelings towards chelsea worthy champions.

Lets just hope we can secure the 2nd spot now.

[Top Gun]

Well Middkesbrough will play a weakened side hopefully.

[Singh]

Hopefully i think its Boro on monday and charlton?

[Guillermo]

Well Middkesbrough will play a weakened side hopefully.

There's no real reason why they would do that. They would normally only ever do it if there was an upcoming European fixture, but that ain't the case this week. Plus Boro will be up for the double against us.

Hopefully i think its Boro on monday and charlton?

Yup, Charlton last game of the season. Will be tough as it's Curbishley's last game.

[Joel]

There's no real reason why they would do that. They would normally only ever do it if there was an upcoming European fixture, but that ain't the case this week. Plus Boro will be up for the double against us.

McClaren said that he will field out a young team, so they can get some experience. Think he is making sure none of his big players gets injured.

[Guillermo]

McClaren said that he will field out a young team, so they can get some experience. Think he is making sure none of his big players gets injured.

Ooh, excellent then. :D

[Robbob]

absolutely gutted about rooney! and united loosing.

Next Season we need scholes back. Need to start Ruud every game. Vidic will hopefully adapt, be just as amazing as when we beat arsenal, but yeah Brown is world class when he isnt injured.

those for the exit door - silvestre, o'shea, fletcher (worst player in a long time), Richardson (just not good enough)

we need two world class centre midfielders to come in and grab the team by the scruff of the neck. since eano left the only ones shouting are Neville and Rooney. 11 gary nevilles! thats what we need! a bit of emotion and love for the club!

to think we couldve had ronaldinho for 25 mil and kenyon wouldnt go that high. what a fucking tool! he knew what he was doing that tosser before he left for chelsea!

ah well, second place and automatic qualification. cant gripe really. at least we won something this season!

next year will be our comeback year

[vanNistelrooy]

Haven't got 2nd place yet. Although one win should give it to use, with our goal difference being slightly better than the Scouser's.

[Akineye]

It was always going to be a hard day, not because Chelsea got the point they needed to be crowned champions, but because of the utter contemptibility of their support.

Chelsea fans are clueless. As the busses from Essex arrived and their overweight passengers poured off sporting headhunter t-shirts and walked with rich London elites, Chewsea's fanbase combined to gloat and goad us.

As for the match, it was a healthy thumping for a United side that was clearly out of it's depth. Fair enough, these last couple of months have brought some fantastic form, but the fact that Chelsea had to wait until two games before the end of the season until they were mathmatical champions shouldn't hide the obvious gulf of ability that exists between United and them.

United have been in superb form recently, but for all of this they drowned amidst the sea of talent Roman's millions have allowed Mourhino to assemble.

I've got mixed feelings about Rooney's injury, as I'm sure most reds have. On the one hand he stands a better chance of being in complete fitness for next season if he is rested and not taken to the world cup, his last few performances are testament to the fact that he definitely needs a rest, as he's looked tired over the last few games.

On the other hand, I would never wish to deny any United player the chance to perform for their country, and Rooney desperately wanted to go to the World Cup. Still, it was amusing to watch the Chelsea fans who'd been booing his every touch watch in horror and applaud him being stretchered off as they realised that their world cup hopes were fast disappearing. And on the spur of the constant munich jibes, taunting and goading that we recieved from Chelsea support, United fans responded with England jibes. Given that I am absoloutley gutted for the lad, that was uncomfortable.

[vanNistelrooy]

I hate dickheads who do the Munich chants.

I'd prefer Rooney to go to the WC, winning it for his country will fill him with confidence going into next season. When have you ever seen Rooney out of breath this season? The guy is immense, and I feel really sorry for him.

[Guillermo]

I hate dickheads who do the Munich chants.


Yup, and it's not as if it really effects any of the players. It's just plain disrespectful of the dead.

EDIT: Damn you Singh. Sky Sports website by any chance?

[Cali]

can i catch it on TV?

[vanNistelrooy]

can i catch it on TV?

Not "live" but I think during the WBA vs West Ham game they'll show you goals, either as they go in or after the game.

[Cali]

ah,im listening to it on BBC Sport:cool:thanks anyway ;).

[Singh]

Yes it was ruud sky sports :)

I was trying to find a dodgy foreign channel that might have had the game on...stick to west ham game then.

[vanNistelrooy]

Boro seem to be slightly on top. Looks like if we're going to get 2nd place, we're gonna make it difficult for ourselves.

[Top Gun]

We should really win as it is a second rate Boro side with no Viduka, Hasselbaink or Yakubu.

[Cali]

thats true.But we are making many mistakes:(.

[vanNistelrooy]

Nooooooooooo. Ruud misses penalty!

[Top Gun]

I can't believe Ruud missed a penalty.

[vanNistelrooy]

I can't believe Ruud missed a penalty.

Another penalty. It's like the 4th or 5th he's missed.

[Hunter]

Bloody hell, its clearer that is heart isn't in it anymore.

[Top Gun]

HAHA. I was just looking on the BBC Sport text commentary and guess what I saw:

73:57 Booking: Foul by Fabio Rochemback on Cristiano Ronaldo. Fabio Rochemback booked for unsporting behaviour. Direct free kick taken left-footed by Ryan Gigg from right channel, passed.

75:01 Booking Foul by Gary Neville on Fabio Rochemback. Gary Neville booked for unsporting behaviour. Free kick taken right-footed by Massimo Maccarone from left channel, save by Edwin Van der Sar.

It dosen't take Gary Neville long to get his revenge.

[Singh]

0-0 finished...

fucking shite

[vanNistelrooy]

So is SAF gonna fuck up vs Charlton and hand Liverpool 2nd place? What a fucking joke.

[Singh]

Yes exactly.

It seems united dont want the 2nd spot..

[vanNistelrooy]

Similar to last year. 0-0 against a team who usually give their opposition a 2-0 head start is unacceptable.

[Cali]

Ridiculous Scoreline:angry:.

[fluke88]

Now it's game on man u!!!

[GuyP]

Aye...i made a bet at the start of the season, saying Man Utd woudlnt finsih 2nd, bet won (i thought it would be Arsenal though!)

[Singh]

Eh? Man united are a point ahead of liverpool still, all United have to do is beat Charlton.

[vanNistelrooy]

bet won

How? We're still clear favourites to finish 2nd. Maybe you should have had a bet that Newcastle wouldn't win a trophy this season, that's a dead cert. You could put it on for next season too :tongue:

[GuyP]

Liverpool have got the momentum...and i did.

[vanNistelrooy]

Liverpool have got the momentum...and i did.

You said you made a bet that United WOULDN'T finish 2nd, therefore the bet isn't won, and odds on, won't be won. Liverpool may have the momentum, but they have a difficult trip to Fratton Park, and a cup final to keep in mind.

[fluke88]

villene your right man u arn't going to finish second.....Liverpool are, well done son.

[vanNistelrooy]

If you two are so sure Liverpool will finish above Man United, how about we put a small wager on it?

[fluke88]

Sure. Shall we be real men about this no kid shit say a tenner and we can send it to who evers address this is how sure i am. Want too?

[vanNistelrooy]

Well, ideas:

1) The loser pays the winner £5 by post

or...

[fluke88]

Game on!!

[vanNistelrooy]

OK, this is my end of a virtual hand shake

(I feel guilty taking money off a 17 year old dad-to-be)

[fluke88]

Ha don't worry mate it's sound.

(Shakes Vans virtual hand and feels sorry for taking a fiver off Vans next man u games money)<<<<make sense????? o well you get me.

Van why am i starting to like you all of a sudden i cannot you support man poo.

[GuyP]

Looking at his other posts, you couldnt tell he was a Man Utd fan, he has good knowledge on football in general, is a good judge of ability, doesnt hate clubs for certain prejudices...the opposite of the average Man Utd fan! I bet he's been to Old Trafford to actually watch a game and not hold business meetings aswell.

Pretty spot on, cheers for the positive comments :)

I do have a little hate for Chelski, but only for the manner in which they won the leagues (selling out), no other reason.

And yes, I have been to OT many times.

Fluke, am starting to like you too, maybe we should start calling eachother names to make it a bit easier :tongue:

[Akineye]

From the MEN: CHELSEA'S out- of-favour striker Eidur Gudjohnsen wants to come to United. It is understood that Gudjohnsen has held informal talks over his future at Stamford Bridge and the two parties are due to sit down again in the next fortnight.

Tottenham are being linked with the striker as well but United would be his choice of future employer.

Sir Alex Ferguson values players who can play in more than one role and Gudjohnsen's midfield capabilities as well as his ability to fill a berth in a two-pronged attack would make him a versatile addition to the Reds squad.

Gudjohnsen moved to Stamford Bridge from Bolton for £5m in 2000 after two years at Wanderers.

His Chelsea strike-rate has been good with 78 goals from 177 matches.

Probably not the smartest signing. Despite being a very talented player Gudjohnsen isn't really what we need, especially if we're talking about a replacement for Ruud as his goalscoring ability isn't half what Ruud's is. Plus he likes to drop off and influence play, and we already have one of the best players in the world who is a master of that particular trait.

However, if he's bought as a replacement for Scholes (assuming he doesn't make it back) then that's another story.

[Top Gun]

I would love Gudjohnson at United as he is an amazing player, he reminds me of Bergkamp in his vision and passing ability, he also has great finishing.

[Rambo]

I would love Gudjohnson at United as he is an amazing player, he reminds me of Bergkamp in his vision and passing ability, he also has great finishing.
if he came to us, i would prefer if he played upfront instead of midfield because he is not the type of player we need

[Top Gun]

Yeah, I mean that with his vision and pasing I feel he would work well with Ruud.

[Papa Lazarou]

Eidur is a quality player but he'd be best up front and we don't need any more upfront players! we have 3 quality strikers, Rossi who is coming through and Ole will be bangin 'em in again soon!

If he was played entirely in midfield then maybe it'd be a different story..

On a simmilar note i hear we may bid for Carrick, now thats a good idea, he'd be great at united

[Jonny2J]

On a simmilar note i hear we may bid for Carrick, now thats a good idea, he'd be great at united Solksjaer won't be banging anything in, Ruud apparantly is up for sale

And on Carrick you's bid 12 million for him in January and had it nocked back so i don't think you'll get him for 10 now :rolleyes:

[Top Gun]

Well Tottenham were interested in Ruud so maybe there is a trade deal possibility.

[Jonny2J]

Well Tottenham were interested in Ruud so maybe there is a trade deal possibility. Berbatov will be going to Spurs and Carrick is indespensible to their cause

[Singh]

If thats the case why isnt carrick signing his new deal at spurs?

Plus say if Spurs dont get europe-UCL he will have more reason to go.

[Jonny2J]

If thats the case why isnt carrick signing his new deal at spurs?

Plus say if Spurs dont get europe-UCL he will have more reason to go. So Spurs are going to reject a 12 million bid in Jan and then accept a 10 million one 6 months later for someone who is deemed by the management team as arguebly their most important?

And you's had a 6 million bid for Lennon nocked back

[Singh]

Every player has a price even the great carrick and lennon.

After finding out Diarra would cost Man Utd £24 million+ its only logical they put their efforts in getting carrick.

[Jonny2J]

Every player has a price even the great carrick and lennon.

After finding out Diarra would cost Man Utd £24 million+ its only logical they put their efforts in getting carrick. You's did put your efforts into getting Carrick but were told in no way would he be available

[Singh]

You's did put your efforts into getting Carrick but were told in no way would he be available

Even if Man utd were to chuck in Fletcher :tongue: and Ruud into the deal?

Heard Jol big fan of ruuds.

[Jonny2J]

Even if Man utd were to chuck in Fletcher :tongue: and Ruud into the deal?

Heard Jol big fan of ruuds. Wouldn't matter as Spurs are well suited in the striking department and Carrick is the heartbeat of the team

[Singh]

Yea i suppose he is.

Last day of prem tommorow lets hope we can secure the 2nd spot vs charlton live on sky.

[Top Gun]

I predict a 3-0 win for United, Ronaldo (2), Giggs (1).

[Cali]

i predict a 2-1 win(Ronaldo,Van the man)And benty scores for them.

[Papa Lazarou]

i think it may be 2-0 with Park and Ruud scoring

[Zoolander]

I wouldn't mind seeing Lennon @ Man Yoo even though he runs like a tit. Does anyone else feel Man Yoo need a set piece special list? I'm fed up of Ronaldo & his 50p feet taking them.

[Cali]

he runs like a tit?but is as fast as Henry!.Carrick would be a good signing IMO.

[Zoolander]

Watch his running style. I get annoyed with people's running/dribbling styles eg. Robben-gimp arms Van Persie-gay wrists. Sneidjer i think is fairly good plus he takes a mean freekick but Carrick will do.

[vanNistelrooy]

2-0. Rossi and Heinze.

[GuyP]

Watch his running style. I get annoyed with people's running/dribbling styles eg. Robben-gimp arms Van Persie-gay wrists. Sneidjer i think is fairly good plus he takes a mean freekick but Carrick will do.

Yep. Cronaldo's chest sticks out.

[Zoolander]

Yep. Cronaldo's chest sticks out.

You've got me started now! Hasselbaink runs with his fat arse!! Pires waddles!! If you watch Gravesen when he passes, 90% of the time he does it with his in step.

[GuyP]

Henry - He doesnt run, he glides. You think he will run but before he completes a strid, BANG!!!, he's scored midstride.

N'zogbia - He is constantly crouched, and being short, he looks awful.

[Zoolander]

Haha!! Newcastle have a chance of making the UEFA cup or do they need Bolton to mess up?

[vanNistelrooy]

They need Bolton to fuck up.

[Zoolander]

Do you think Rossi will get a run out? United are apparently pushing to get the Diarra transfer through quickly.

[vanNistelrooy]

Do you think Rossi will get a run out? United are apparently pushing to get the Diarra transfer through quickly.

I expect him to atleast be on the bench. They bought him on for 10 minutes vs Boro.

£24m for a player who's only really had one decent season is a bit risky. For that amount of money I'd expect him to give me a blowjob at every halftime of every match :tongue:

[Hunter]

Do you think Rossi will get a run out? United are apparently pushing to get the Diarra transfer through quickly.

Well its becoming more obvious that we are selling Ruud. So Rossi will definetely be in the firing line for the first 11, he'll be on the bench for nearly every match I think. Unless of course the rumours of us loaning him out next season are true. :huh:

Hopefully we'll strike the Diarra deal nicely too, also after Carrick and Riquelme, if we get 2 of them I'd be delighted. However Carrick and Diarra are both quite defensively minded, probably best pushing for Riquelme.

[vanNistelrooy]

I'd expect us to loan out Rossi for the majority of the season.

No go on Riquelme for me. The possibility of him doing a "Veron" is too much to gamble on, and hopefully SAF will realise that.

[Guillermo]

I thought Diarra deal was no chance?

[vanNistelrooy]

I thought Diarra deal was no chance?

Looks like United insist on blowing £24m on one player. How much would someone like Senna set us back?

[Guillermo]

Looks like United insist on blowing £24m on one player.

Well if we got him, there's no possibility of getting Riquelme, and no point in getting Carrick.

Any word on transfer funds (excluding any possible sales) for the summer?

[Zoolander]

I've always liked Riquelme ever since his Boca days but vanNistelrooy is right about not risking it.(i don't think SAF can survive another flop) How come no one is going for Juninho Pernambucano.

[Hunter]

I've always liked Riquelme ever since his Boca days but vanNistelrooy is right about not risking it.(i don't think SAF can survive another flop) How come no one is going for Juninho Pernambucano.

Although Juninho is a great player, his age is definetely a deciding factor. :erm:

[vanNistelrooy]

Probably because he has a mono-brow.

[Guillermo]

How come no one is going for Juninho Pernambucano.

Considering Juninho is Lyon's best player, and considering Lyon insisted on £25m+ for both Diarra and Essien, then I suppose teams assume they won't have the necessary funds.

Although I suppose the mono-brow is a major factor as well ;)

[Zoolander]

I like the look of Makoun & Obodo both fairly young. If RVN did go i'd like to see wedge spent on Fernando Torres.

[vanNistelrooy]

I wouldn't mind Eider, but he drops off alot as does Rooney. We need someone to compliment Rooney's play as Scholes isn't fit yet. I'd like to see us to go for Robbie Keane to be honest. Ruud could be used to get the deal done.

[Guillermo]

I'd like to see us to go for Robbie Keane to be honest.

I thought that said Roy at first. :huh:

[vanNistelrooy]

I thought that said Roy at first. :huh:

I wouldn't mind him back either.

But Robbie Keane, he's the one I want to see come in.

[Zoolander]

I'd like to see us to go for Robbie Keane to be honest. Ruud could be used to get the deal done.

Also prone to drop off though. We'd need a target man.

[vanNistelrooy]

Also prone to drop off though. We'd need a target man.

At the same time we need a target man with pace. Too many times there's been a golden chance to run through on goal but Ruud has been to slow.

[Zoolander]

Not many of those around! All the good ones are taken. Heskey anyone? haha

[Guillermo]

Not many of those around! All the good ones are taken. Heskey anyone? haha

According to The Mirror, Heskey is going to be Rooney's replacement at the World Cup. :laugh:

[vanNistelrooy]

According to The Mirror, Heskey is going to be Rooney's replacement at the World Cup. :laugh:

:huh:

[Zoolander]

God help England. I'd feel so shit if i was Ashton,Harewood,Defoe,Vassell, Fowler etc & that happened.

[Top Gun]

According to The Mirror, Heskey is going to be Rooney's replacement at the World Cup. :laugh:

Yeah I read that, scary stuff.

[GuyP]

Heskey is Rooney's replacement...i always thought it the other way round...

[Singh]

On the subject of strikers i would like Man Utd to get defoe not a big fan of robbie keane's.

[Top Gun]

I would rather have neither and get Bellamy.

[Singh]

Bellamy's not worth the hassle.

[Top Gun]

I know what you mean but he just needs a good mentor, and at United he would have Fergie and he would also have Giggsy there.

[Jonny2J]

Bellamy's not worth the hassle. Believe me he is

[Papa Lazarou]

Bellamy is shit, simple as that! In an ideal world, we'd keep Ruud and he'd get back on form. However it does seem likely that he's gonna leave. I've heard that we may offer him and £14 million for Torres which is a bit expensive to be fair. Plus we don't know what he's gonna be like in Premiership, he may be shit!

Robbie Keane is an interesting suggestion actually. I think he's a great player and would do really well for United but i still think that we need to get midfielders and hope that a fit, in form ruud stays with us.

[vanNistelrooy]

Keane or Torres, I don't care. I just want someone who can run! Ruud has lost his sharpness, which is painful for me to admit :(

[Guillermo]

Bellamy is shit, simple as that!

:no:

[Jonny2J]

Bellamy is shit, simple as that!
You sir are a fucking idiot

[vanNistelrooy]

Here's my wishlist for the summer:

1) Robbie Keane
2) Michael Carrick

I may be able to fit you in at 19:00 tonight, just after my appointment with Kelly Brook. :ninja:

[Zoolander]

Don't kids & grown ups love Haribo? God that's just wrong ;)

[vanNistelrooy]

Kids and grown ups love it so, why not become a paedophile?

[Zoolander]

Haha i hope he doesn't get offended easily.

[vanNistelrooy]

Ruud vanNistelrooy is not in the starting line up, nor is he on the bench. He has now left OT and gone home.

[Top Gun]

Well it looks like he is gone in the summer, hopefully Rossi will be partnering Saha up front.

[vanNistelrooy]

Yep, Rossi and Saha upfront.

I said 2-0 Rossi and Heinze, as Gabby isn't in there, I'm gonna go for Saha.

[Cali]

Rossi up front with Saha :D,and scholesy on bench!!!:ohmy:.

[Joel]

Ruud vanNistelrooy is not in the starting line up, nor is he on the bench. He has now left OT and gone home.

So if Nistlerooy does leave, the last thing he done for United was miss a penalty. :ohmy:

[vanNistelrooy]

So if Nistlerooy does leave, the last thing he done for United was miss a penalty. :ohmy:

Really not the way I wanted him to leave. Wanted him to play, and score today, before bowing out :(

Yay for Scholes though!

[Top Gun]

I'm surprised about Scholes as I had heard nothing about him coming back, hopefully he will come on and play some part in the match.

[Zoolander]

Apparently Scholes will be wearing special Nike visors. Like that blind black guy on Star Trek.

[vanNistelrooy]

Apparently Scholes will be wearing special Nike visors. Like that blind black guy on Star Trek.

Geordie!

[Top Gun]

Probably like the ones Sissoko wore on his first game back after his eye injury.

[Zoolander]

I was taking the piss but oh well.

Is Fletcher on the bench? I fucking hate him.

[vanNistelrooy]

Yes, Feltcher is on the bench :tongue:

Then again, so is Ole Gunnar!

[Zoolander]

Fucking Hell Ronaldo got a freekick on target!!! Richardson got some timber on that shot!!!

[Top Gun]

Richardson just hit the bar with a good shot.

[Cali]

1-0 Saha!!!!!!:D

[vanNistelrooy]

Loooooooooooooouis!

[-Jamster-]

I DEDICATE MY 1'000th POST TO THE ALMIGHTY MANCHESTER UNITED!


EDIT: 1-0. :w00t

[Top Gun]

Good cross from Giggs and a header from Saha, United have been dominating so it is a deserved lead.

Edit: 2-0 Cristiano Ronaldo

[-Rafa-]

They're playing? :mellow:

Ignore my comment, found it

[Cali]

They're playing? :mellow:

[Joel]

[Zoolander]

Chocolateloves Manchester United XI with transfers i want.

Neville--------Ferdinand-------Brown---------Heinze
---------------------------------------------------
----------------------Diarra------------------------
-------------Sneidjer-------------------------------
Lennon--------------------------------------Ronaldo
-------------Rooney--------------------------------
---------------------------Torres-------------------

[-Rafa-]

You won't get Lennon, And I doubt you'll get Torres

Sunderland is drawing 0 - 0 after 24 minutes at Villa Park :dribble:

[Cali]

You won't get Lennon, And I doubt you'll get Torres

Sunderland is drawing 0 - 0 after 24 minutes at Villa Park :dribble:
get on MSN Rafa ;).

[Top Gun]

Giggs is having a good game he has got the assists for both goals and is scaring the Charlton defence, defence is doing well as Charlton have had no good chances, United could be 4-0 or 5-0 up.

[-Rafa-]

Ok mate

[Zoolander]

Yeah United are playing some sexy stuff. Wigan are winning!!! Own goal for Charlton.

[executioner]

3-0
comedy own goal!

[Top Gun]

3-0 own goal by Jason Euell, why can't United play like this every week.

[Zoolander]

I feel sorry for Curbs.

[-Rafa-]

Go Wigan!!!!

[Zoolander]

Rio needs a fucking kick up the arse!!! Anyone else think he's over rated on Pro Evo 5?

[-Rafa-]

Yes

[Cali]

Rio needs a fucking kick up the arse!!! Anyone else think he's over rated on Pro Evo 5?
Nah,he was quality and still is.Just sometimes doesnt have very good games.Rossi is playing well though i must say!

[-Rafa-]

Half Time

[Top Gun]

It's been a good half for United, they can now afford to give Scholes and Solksjaer a bit of a run-out.

[Guillermo]

You won't get Lennon

More chance than getting Carrick ;)

[Cali]

It's been a good half for United, they can now afford to give Scholes and Solksjaer a bit of a run-out.
yep,And keep Rossi on,And we should get a couple more goals.

[-Rafa-]

Would laugh if they lost

[Top Gun]

Scholes can come on for O'Shea or Giggs and then Solksjaer can come on for Ronaldo. I doubt it will happen at half-time but they should hopefully come on somewhen during the game.

[Benbo!]

gotta say rossi is playing well so is saha and richardsons shot :ohmy:

[Cali]

what i want to know is why does Fergie now think Ole is a winger/Smf?He is a STRIKER!!

[-Rafa-]

Do you support United?

@topgun

[Cali]

Me?

[-Rafa-]

Top Gun, I thought he supported Arsenal

[Top Gun]

Top Gun, I thought he supported Arsenal

No I don't.

[Cali]

He supports Man U and Barca,Like me ;).

[-Rafa-]

Ok

[Top Gun]

Ok

You must be dissapointed about the injury to Xabi Alonso.

[Jonny2J]

More chance than getting Carrick ;) How many times! :tongue:

[-Rafa-]

Have I told you Carrick is going to Liverpool :tongue:

[Top Gun]

Scholes is coming on for O'Shea for the second half.

[Cali]

Big cheer for him on his first kick to :).

[Cali]

Richardsoooooooooooon!!!!!!!4-0

[-Rafa-]

Start talking people

[Zoolander]

Richardson has been going to the gym eh?

[Cali]

Solskjaar and Vidic on now!

[-Rafa-]

I know I have

[Zoolander]

Fucks sake Spurs have twitched!! Jaffa cakes anyone?

[-Rafa-]

Give me my shot gun, Jol is a dead man walking

[Cali]

:laugh:Damn Spurs,They still have a tiny chance:ninja:

[-Rafa-]

They have a tiny chance to win away from my killing spree

[Cali]

Man of Match is Richardson.

[Zoolander]

Now that Spurs won't be in the Champions League who thinks they'll get their players swooped on? I can see Carrick wanting to play Champions League footy.

[Cali]

Full time
4-0!!!!!!!!!!!!!:):):):).
Saha,Ronaldo,Og,Richardson
mom:Richardson

[Jonny2J]

Now that Spurs won't be in the Champions League who thinks they'll get their players swooped on? I can see Carrick wanting to play Champions League footy. Arrrrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

[Guillermo]

I can see Carrick wanting to play Champions League footy.

MUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH

[-Rafa-]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwww

[Zoolander]

Have i said something wrong?

[-Rafa-]

No, I was just joining in

[vanNistelrooy]

Didn't see the second half, did Rossi have a good second half?

Oh, and I'd like to congratulate van der Sar on a great season. Made one or two boo boos, but pulled off many more saves to keep us in games. Cheers Edwin!

[Malagacf]

I've heard you want to pay 21 million and Van Nistelrroy to get Torres. If you do that you are going to be crying for a long, long time.

[Papa Lazarou]

great result for united. everyone played amazing, especially richardson who played his best game for united today

as for ruud, it looks like its curtain call. Thanks ruud for the goals!

[Singh]

Yea Ruud will be badly missed especially in the champions league next season, though i hope he stays.

Well done to United for getting 2nd.

Best player- Rooney/Giggs.

Best Young player- Ronaldo

Worst player- Silvestre

[Papa Lazarou]

i agree with Singhs opinions on who were our best/worst players. Silvestre has been pretty awful this season and i can't see him getting many games next season what with Heinze being back and Vidic being pretty god dam good in my opinion

[Singh]

Yea i would say so to, Mikel's pass to Bent was fucking awful on Sunday. Rio done all the work and Mikel nearly gives them a goal.

Hopefully United can get a rising star that performs well in the world cup 2006. I would say Man utd should get 2-3 players quality not quantity.

[vanNistelrooy]

Vidic being pretty god dam good in my opinion
:shocking:

[Guillermo]

:shocking:

Now you know how me and Jonny feel. ;)

[Zoolander]

Any news on the Obi Mikel front?

[Top Gun]

Just heard that Tim Howard is going on loan to Everton for the whole of next season.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/e/everton/4753177.stm

[Cali]

yep thats in another thread.Good loan for Everton there..We dont need him we got Ben Foster *smug*.

[Guillermo]

Any news on the Obi Mikel front?

Hopefully he's fallen down a ditch and no-one can hear him scream :erm:

[Zoolander]

Hopefully he's fallen down a ditch and no-one can hear him scream :erm:

I don't really blame the boy. He was under a lot of pressure. I think he's a massive talent.

[Phatmann]

On the Obi Mikel front, haven't heard anything for a month, and lyn have already started their season. Who knows whats happening :no:

Unusually great performance from Richardson on the weekend, and good to see Scholes and Solskjaer getting a run out.

[Rambo]

I don't really blame the boy. He was under a lot of pressure. I think he's a massive talent.
yes he is

[Hunter]

FUK U!!!


yes he is

Be quiet, what has he done for the club except cause hassle and disrespect ?

[Rambo]

Be quiet, what has he done for the club except cause hassle and disrespect ?
look yh, i know he has caused hassle and he has pissed me off a bit too but he is still a quality player. think about when chelsea and manutd want a player, its obvious that the player will be attracted to chelsea instead of us

[Zoolander]

Be quiet, what has he done for the club except cause hassle and disrespect ?

Although you are right Hunter. Put yourself in his situation. I blame his agent.

[Hunter]

look yh, i know he has caused hassle and he has pissed me off a bit too but he is still a quality player. think about when chelsea and manutd want a player, its obvious that the player will be attracted to chelsea instead of us

He is no where near being a quality player, think about it mate. Henry, is quality, Ronaldinho, Rooney, not Obi Mikel, no way. Chelsea are attracted to any player on the planet besides Peter Crouch at the moment, although you never know...

[Rambo]

ok but i have seen him play at the U20 world championships and the african nations cup and he was great, he was our best player in both tournaments.

[Cali]

Obi Mikel is class.Definately got the talent.
EDIT:Manchester United's hopes of landing Mahamadou Diarra have been boosted after Real Madrid pulled out of the race to sign the Lyon star. (The Sun)

[Top Gun]

I have never seen him play, Do you think that he is better than Rossi?

[Rambo]

I have never seen him play, Do you think that he is better than Rossi?
he is a good player, he is definatly worth and its a shame he doesnt want to come to us. he and rossi are totally different players. obi mikel is a midfielder and rossi is a striker

[Papa Lazarou]

i think that maybe he will come to us in the end...and he'll be quality!!

[Billy Minof]

He is going to Chelsea 100% and is a class player, will never see the first team there but serves him right for being a dick about the whole situation.

[Singh]

Bit of Trivia-:

1. Whose goal won the 1979 FA Cup Final?

2. Which team provided the opposition for Bryan Robson's final game before leaving United?

3. What year was Cantona's Wembley winner?

4. Which striker sealed the 2001/02 title at OT?

5. Whose penalty kept the 94/95 title race alive?

[Top Gun]

1. Alan Sunderland

4. Sylvain Wiltord

The only ones I know.

[Phatmann]

1. Alan Sunderland (arsenal) 3-2 were 2-0 down, brought it back to 2-2, he scored last minute I think.
2. not sure, everton?
3. 1996 Man U 1-0 Liverpool
4. not sure, Wiltord?
5. I would say Cantona, but that seems too obvious, so Irwin?

[Singh]

And so....

1. Alan Sunderland for the Arsenal

2. Coventry at OT.

3.1996

4.Wiltord

5. Irwin. He slipped, but scored

Not bad attempts...

Wahey, 4 out of 5 :)

[Top Gun]

SAF reckons that Alan Smith could be back by the start of September,

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_utd/4758197.stm

Good news as I feel he was starting to improve in that midfield role, although we will still need to buy a centre midfielder as he still isn't quite good enough.

[Singh]

Yea that is good news wish him well.

I heard that Lyon want Ruud plus Cash then they will let Diarra join Man Utd.

[Hunter]

Yea that is good news wish him well.

I heard that Lyon want Ruud plus Cash then they will let Diarra join Man Utd.

Sounds good to me.

Ruud is obviously going anyway so why not use him as bait to lure in a big cash player. So with Ruud as part of the trade deal, we will maybe throw in about £10m to secure Diarra.

[Phatmann]

But would Ruud want to play in France? I'm sure he'd rather go to one of the big clubs in Spain or Italy or maybe even Holland or Germany. Couldn't see that transfer happening to be honest.

[Guillermo]

Ruud doesn't want to go France, Diarra doesn't want to come here. So why the fuck is Fergie spending all his time chasing him? We'll end up buying no-one at this rate.

Go for someone A. cheaper and B. available.

Who is cheaper and available then? Steven Reid? :)

[vanNistelrooy]

Go for someone A. cheaper and B. available.
A. Joey B. Barton

?

[Guillermo]

I was thinking Mascherano?

By available I don't mean transfer listed, I mean there's a good possibility of being able to buy them.

[Phatmann]

Joey Barton would never come to us, and I thought Mascherano was going to Madrid at some point? what ever happened to that?

[vanNistelrooy]

Joey Barton would never come to us, and I thought Mascherano was going to Madrid at some point? what ever happened to that?
Probably realised he wasn't a striker!

I'm sure we could come to some kind of agreement over Barton ;)

What if he puts a cigar into Rossis eye or summat? :mellow:

[vanNistelrooy]

What if he puts a cigar into Rossis eye or summat? :mellow:
Then I'd rip his nose off.

[GuyP]

Go for someone A. cheaper and B. available.

Lee Bowyer (aka. Mr Popularity)

[Phatmann]

Then I'd rip his nose off.
Good man. What about Nolan? He was linked to us before.

[Keyser Soze]

Or Reo-Coker?
