I haven't seen any of the games so far. How has Tavernier been? Any reason to think he'll feature this season?

Losing 2-0 to Pachuca FC right now. They're still on course to go through anyway, right?

Steve Howard is the definition of a target man. He has no other business on the pitch other than being the target for the long ball upfield.

What is going on with Benzema? Leaving, getting jailed for the sex-scandal stuff or still in contention for Real?

Edit:That embedding stuff was too much technology for me..

Portuguese papers apparently saying we had a 2nd bid rejected for Djalo, supposedly around €6m, and they want somewhere between €7-8m. I have no idea how much truth there is in this, but Sporting Lisbons Swedish supportersite are reporting it today.

He's just left them according to SkySports. Really hope we can pull this one off...

CM0102 legend Kennedy was brilliant in Allsvenskan for many years. Legend for Hammarby.

I thought you played well after the break, school boy errors from Barry - twice, total lack of experience at 1-3, poor anticipation of Özils pace at 1-4 - to hand them the simple task of just running down the clock. Capellos substitution of Milner for Cole was weird, should've been Lennon on and Barry off or something similar. Well played to Germany as well. The front line of Klose, Podolski, Özil and Müller works wonders. The most dynamic offensive set up I've seen in this tournament.

Change and third are revealed on nufc.co.uk, shocking and the ones that were posted earlier. http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20100618/united-reveal-new-puma-kits_2240137_2073701

Does this mean he is Sir Gary from now on? Or what is that grade called?

Hmm, it's different. I like it Looks like they had Ed Hardy design it. Horrible.

Best defensive performance i think we've ever turned in was against Chelsea last time we were 'down the Bridge' It was so good. Bassong was brilliant that day.

Jonas v Barnsley for me. If Lövenkrands vs Preston was deliberate I would have considered it, but it wasn't. This is our current vote on our Swedish fansite: Ameobis 2-0 mot Reading 9% Jonas mot Barnsley 25% R. Taylor mot Palace 1% R. Taylor mot Ipswich 1% Nolan mot Sheffield U 20% Carroll hemma mot Doncaster 1% Simpson mot Peterborough 3% Routledge mot Blackpool 4% Pancrate mot Watford 22% Lövenkrands 5-1 mot Cardiff 5% Lövenkrands mot QPR 3% Guthrie mot WBA 2% Guthrie mot Leicester 3%

Some save by Marshall from Waghorn. Kermorgant will take a long time to win the fans back from that. Nice to see Nobby smack his Sheareresque

But, this isn't the script?

Simon Davies workrate is fantastic

Pundit on Five sounds like Quagmire

Lazio?

Maradona apparently sent in the squad way later than the deadline. Sometimes I wonder if Argentina will even turn up at the right ground come June. Hope Colo gets into the last 23, Jonas is a given. Can't believe he left out Cambiasso.

2-4! Feel sorry for Forest..

Petrov at Villa? José Enrique

Folan is a slight surprise, he's impressed since his switch to the back, but I'd say Jeff Henderson (his CB partner) was the better of the pair. What about Adjei? How's he coming on? Heard he struggled to begin with, but has he developed anything this season? We don't hear anything about him here in Sweden. Same goes for Ole Söderberg, but he's been injured right?

nufcblog.com saying Stephen Folan, Haris Vuckic, Samuel Adjei, Brad Inman and Phil Airey have all been promoted to senior squad. Any truth in this? I'd imagine Inman and Vuckic were certain, but the rest?
