GOAL!! A fantastic finish by Parky. The ball breaks down the right after a slip by the left back. A superb cross takes a wicked deflection, before Parky executes a perfect overhead kick into the top right hand corner. PARKY 2-0 RODGERS.
The man is a rent-a-quote, each one more embarassing than the day before. I think he'd really struggle to beat this one though.
Not only is a he a tool, he's the whole damn toolbox!
He can be our Moyes, except we're already at their level. Pards has weaknesses but if he didnt he wouldnt be here....i just love the idea of stability.
It is annoying how they always get the easy cup runs, especially when every year we get away ties to CL clubs.
Then again, we've gone out to Stevenage and Brighton recently.
Premiership players have 38 games, plus 2 cups and maybe Europe yet apparantly play too much. Meanwhile, go to League 2 and their far smaller squads play 46 games, enter those 2 cups earlier and have the Football League Trophy.

....is what I'd go with. Considering it's at Old Trafford, I'm not entirely pessimistic about tonight. The win is possible.
Win-win scenario for me. It'd be silly to say beforehand that we want to go out of a cup but when it happens, we could do with less games.
Let's just play a decent team, give it a go and hope for no injuries
Yeah, every time he got the ball there was a noticeable shift in the crowd. A mix of excitement, anticipation and nerves. Only very special players can do that.
There was a great moment at the match today where it all sunk in. I just looked at my mate and said "There's a genuinely world class player at our club. I can't believe it". He's just a joy to watch and the type of player we all dream of being as kids. Make the most of him.
