Malawi 3-0 Algeria. We should fucking piss our world cup group. Slovakia, the Algerians and Mike, should win all those games.

How is this 'player power'? Unless the article talks about Enrique and Jonas rolling Chrissy Hughton up in a carpet and throwing him off a bridge?

Shove him up front with Shola, he's more effective than AC.

I've always said Dunne is a fat, lumbering piece of shit but he's had a class season tbf. Collins; I called correctly and said it was a good deal.

Shootings and now a match as good as thrown? They should abandon this sorry tournament

that is quite accurate

Is Akwa playing?

Its slow as fuck, has only one gear and runs out of fuel very quickly

Enjoy? He wasn't great. He seems to be in the mould of Chopra; he scores his goals in flurries.

Being with or without a manager does not make the slightest bit difference to someone buying a club. Yeah, it's hardly going to be the deciding factor, is it. "We best not take over that club, they've got a manager in place" "Er okay, but so have all the other clubs." "Fuck it then, stick it on black instead."

Not a good idea if the inevitable disruption off the pitch starts affecting the results on it though. Of course, you wonder why he can't do this on the quiet... As if he'll keep anyone in the loop, least of all Hughton, his staff and the players. Most likely it'll just be Ashley, Derek Llambias and Keith Harris @ Seymour Pierce doing it on the sly. We all know that Llambias would gladly come out and lie in the press and say a club sale wasn't going to happen, even if they were actively looking to flog it. The sale and purchase agreement thing especially means that no-one need know.

If he's got any sense he'll start concentrating on selling the club as soon as the January window is shut. That way, he can at least have people at the "initial interest / proof of funds" stage by the time the season ends in May.

I know, it really hits home how shitty things are despite our lofty position in the league, looking at these second-rate striking options that we're alledgedly chasing.

why not go for the cheaper option that will at least have some resale value? Fucking Ashley apologist.

I might watch to see how much of a truly awful player Fryatt apparently is.

Just stick Skirge upfront.

We're all just waiting for Beckford to finish his medical. Nice to see them being thorough for a change, 10 days of testing just to ensure he won't break on us.

If he came back tomorrow and started 10 games for us, how many do you think he'd score?

Chopra can fuck off.

Tabloids. It is Sunday. 2 + 2 = 5.

Best thing about this game: MAN U NEED A GOAL SUBSTITUTION Mame Diouf on for a debut, Mickey Owen remains firmly rooted to the bench

Are you watching MOTD? They just showed one of those times when he ducked under the ball and let Rooney in.

I know Carr was mentioned in the OP but there are much better examples of players thriving after leaving here. Milner, Bellamy, Zog, Duff, Speed, to name just a few. It's quite funny that Souness was once quoted as saying you won't win anything with Milner and Ambrose in the side. Both are doing far better than most of the garbage he brought into the club at massive expense. Ah, I know, Carr is still generally pretty wank imo. The first thing you're told as a defender is not to let the ball bounce and he did it at least twice today. He's also crap in possession, there was a game away at Southampton where we played him RM once, and his ball retention and distribution was unbelievably poor.

Carr was poor today, there was two occasions when there was a routine long punt towards him and instead of just heading it unchallenged he let it bounce then lost the shoulder to shoulder with the opposition player and there was a chance created.

Is there a 5.15 game on ESPN?
