It doesn't matter where the orders came from, he decided to carry them out. Thats what I was saying. I know. I know mate.

His orders may have come from above but he should have argued to "hold off" until the player was clear of cancer.

Lush.

Im not sure of the timeline of events but surely it would have been better to just say "get yourself better" and not bother saying anything else,

Not necessarily disagreeing but it's ridiculous to do that for half a season. I know what you mean but I wouldn't put it past ashley and co. Especially we are now picking up points and have a ready made replacement in Abeid.

£10m into the bank account and a ready made replacement for free in Abeidi. Mike will be giggling like a little girl at the prospect. I also think Cisse will be leaving, a striker is a must in january.

Tiote is gone in january, I dont think he is crocked, i think he is being kept away from playing so he doesn't get injured.

Madness.

Alan Pardew speaking to the London Evening Standard; “Sometimes I play that system (withdrawn no.10) with a striker, sometimes with a midfielder. “Last year Cabaye had massive success in the first half of the season. Moussa Sissoko has grown comfortable in that role and he’s probably one of the big reasons why we have picked up.” I told the players we’d beat Man City…; “He is not a Cabaye. He has got a different role. Cabaye was the intelligence of the team, Moussa is like the battering ram. He’ll make a run that blows the back four apart. The goal he scored against Manchester City, Cabaye wouldn’t have got. “We made people sit up a little. I don’t think anybody saw it coming apart from us. I told them in the dressing room we could win.” :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I would have crashed the crash in anger!

He always waffles on about intelligence but never shows he himself has any :lol:

Gimp just popping in here periodically to rephrase the same sentiment. They're still one of the top clubs in the world and their income is astronomical. If they didn't have the Glazers sucking money out every year then they'd have the spending power of Chelsea/City without the neeed for dodgy oil money. They probably do regardless. They'll be back challenging for the title within 3 years, maximum. On their knees. They'll never be so dominent again.

Glory days are over.

Ahh man, the king is so vain he trawls websites reading about himself. All fine and dandy until you dont win games for MONTHS on end. Hi Alan, you useless spawny gimp.

They are finished as a major force.

For the money that Man Utd are willing to pay, basically every player is available. I'm sure Hummels would be available for the money paid for Shaw, for example. Vermaelen and Di Vrij were mentioned heavily in the summer and both moved, but not to Man Utd. There may be some method behind Man Utds transfers of late but they seem a bit scattergun to me. Like Citeh a few seasons ago. Panic.

Man Utd are finished man, chasing the dragon now.

If this is our centre back paring then the king wont be playing front foot football.

fifa needs to be torn down and started again from scratch It's never going to happen, and not what is needed really. Get your point though. Sorry how isn't what is needed exactly? What benefit is there in keeping FIFA exactly? It's a very rich and established mechanism - if it was lead in the right way and didn't have the corrupt faces at it's top inner circle it could transform almost overnight for a positive thing for the world of football. I'm not saying I'm against tearing it down and starting again - just seems over kill. There's clearly a number corrupt c***s at the top that need removing from football, at any level, for good. Post that, rules need to come in to limit how long people stay at the top of FIFA and introduce transparency on everything it does to make it all fair again. Corruption is ingrained in the organisation now, you'd literally have to get rid of every single Fifa delegate (or whatever they're called) and start again with new rules as you say. So if you're doing that why not just start from scratch and give people a better organisation? Introducing limited 4 year terms our whatever now is simply going to mean they've got less time to make money and will probably be even greedier. They've become so bad football literally needs to see the back of Fifa imo, it needs a fresh start and I hope the Germans have the balls to make it happen cause the c***s in charge if the English fa won't derail the gravy train. Bin Fifa.

Easy Tiger.

pretty much.

Its amazing what money can buy you. :lol:

Does what he likes.
