Can't see it happening personally, their away record is absolutely appalling and Ferguson's tactics just aren't the best IMO. When Man Utd are at their best is 4-4-2 with width trying to blitzkrieg the opposition, but when Fergie trys to go all clever and play a European way they always come up short.

Watching England in 1970 it's amazing how an English team could just keep possession and weren't treating the ball like a hot potato, they were so calm on the ball.

'92 iirc.

Anderson is an absolute fantastic prospect, more potential than Rooney and Cristiano IMO.

Actually it's quite a joke how high we were up in Robson's tenure before signing Woodgate when you look at our defence on paper. However we didn't half defend from the front which took a lot of pressure off the said defenders.

I've had enough of us signing these wideboys over the past couple of years, for fuck sake no.

People seem to have this image they we're a massive club when in reality we're not.

People turning there noses up at proven Premiership quality players man, at this moment in time due to the fragile nature the squad is in we cannot afford to take a gamble. Get in the players we know can do a job until we have the infrastructure there to try and take a gamble on some unknown quantities, yet again our fans seem to be aiming to high again and are thinking above their stations due to the new circumstances surrounding the club. Howay man a bit of patience please, think were we finished last season and how far back we have gone in the last few seasons. We cannot afford to rub our noses up at players like Viduka, especially on a free transfer. You can't aim to build a mansion without solid foundations laid down, am I correct?

Yes. But there are stacks of players in history I have never seen live yet I class some of them as the greatest players ever in the game. I dont know if Pele ever tracked back or harried the CB but I reckon he is better than Shearer. He did tbf to him.

Wonder if he'll turn up in big games unlike that other Portugese winger Man Utd have.

Do you have to see a player live to form an opinion? Well it's better than highlights, no? I'd ignore HTT's ignorant view of foreign football mind before he even makes a post.

People are forgetting one thing. Jose Mourinho.

I was just about to say the same thing, I remember him just being this big lump.

I really want to know the way people go on about the likes of Nani when they blatantly have only witnessed a 3 minute clip of him on youtube and heard there's a lot of hype surrounding the lad from all sections across the board.

I would rather him mull it over, agree a 1 year contract extension then stay. None of the big hitters are after him so i don't know why you're holding out hope for someone to come in and pay significant money for him. He won't go anywhere this season. But his price tag will go up. Said this before - he'll use this season as a stepping stone to a big move, at the very least. if anything it will come down as he will have less time left on his deal? Aye, i suppose that might be right. However, personally, i'd rather we didn't sell him off for £11m now. But instead, let him score 20 goals next season and sell him off for £8m. If you catch my drift. Entirely hypothetical, obviously. I think we would be lucky to get £8m. Liverpool got that much when he was at the peak of his hype. Did they sell him after France '98 like.

27.5 million? Fuck off man. If that's the case can you imagine what someone like Shearer or Pedro would be worth in today's market?

Treat SBR like absolute shite mind.

What about a supposed 8 million loss on a player after two seasons? aka Mr Owen.

We'll get fuck all for him anyways.

£5 million.

Baresi was better. Franco in the centre, Paolo at left-back, absolutely marvelous.

Kaka.

Don't know as well how you expect to win a European Cup Final with Pennant and Zenden on the wings.

Injury to Eto ring a bell? What about it? Liverpool were all over them in the 2nd leg, that had nothing to do with Sammy. What exactly has that got to do with tonights blunders anyway? You're pointing out tonight's failings darling and I'm saying that in the past he has had huge tactical success in big games. You've also blatantly had this thread title open since the final was found out a couple of weeks ago. Come on 2J you can see he fucked up. blueyes.gif Course I can mate, I admit he did, just you seem to be looking for any excuse to have a go at him. He's suspect. Don't really rate him as some do. They're going backwards in the league and a game like tonight they could have imposed themselves early doors. Gerrard TOTALLY wasted. The number of times he looked at the bench. He was probably checking to see if his missus was sucking anybody off in the crowd.
