  1. I couldn't care le Not all utd supporters. Couldn't care less about that money grabbing lightweight.... Hope the bench is well padded
  2. I was, and long before that as well. Times have changed and its hard to find managers, who'll give youth a change at the top clubs, except for a few super talents. Hope to see LVG introduce youngsters at utd, be it british or overseas... Keep playing the same old broken tune is useless...a bit like Canucks Happy to see us buy Bastian, just hope he is not coming to fill his bank account before hanging up his boots (like Podolski did at Arsenal). He has the potential to make us competitive again... Still wish we would sign schneiderlin as well Now go get a star C/B as well...
  3. impressive list... here's hoping he emulates them in the future. That would be extremely sweet
  4. To think that constantly proposals are being made, in which the future of the Canucks are being traded away, before they have fully developed.... Its good to hear that Gaunce is expected to make the big show soon.
  5. hahaha lol... A lot of people could all of a sudden be hit by a hammer of reality. Lets hope they all exceed expectation...
  6. If Otamendi is anything close to Vidic, I'll ride my bicycle all the way to Spain and force him to sign... We've been in dire need of a proper defender, ever since Moyes lost the plot and said good bye to Vidic with no back up plan. Sweinsteiger interesting, but if we had to choose a Bayern player, I'd rather Muller was signed. Desperately need a proper goal scorer...even though we'd end up as dads army...
  7. No you are not. Barca will be favourites, but never bet against Italian teams...
  8. Sounds interesting.... I'll join if some sort of fantasy league is started...
  9. Think De Gea leaving Utd has been on the cards for a long time now. Will be very surprised if we see him in a Utd shirt next season (maybe he'll play out his contract one more year). The fact utd extended Smalling till 2019 might have made up his mind for good Lloris will without a doubt be high on the list of candidates to replace him. In saying that, 2 months ago I could have sworn that Mata couldn't play on the wing and would be on his way, and yet both he and Fellaini have finally stepped up to the plate. So miracles does happen...
  10. This. Ferland would be dead and buried by now, and with him the tenacity of the Lames....
  11. Way to go Utd. Great win and massive statement made... Liverpool, Spurs, Villa, and now City... Utd are back.
  12. Yeah Rocket... Good weekend for Utd. and the Ronaldo goal show continues...
  13. Chuffed to bits seeing utd play like this again. 2 weeks on the trot. And this is probably Mata's best game for utd. If he had played like this while at Chelsea, there is no way they would have sold him to utd. If he can keep that level of play, he may not be leaving after all. Also a mention of Fellaini, who is now starting to be the beast, he was with Everton... All in all LVG is starting to make the team play properly. Magic.
  14. OK. I'll give you that. Point was Mata has to play behind main striker or as winger (if you play the utd way), otherwise midfield becomes two thin.
  15. Great game by Utd today. Hope they can bring that level of play next Sunday v Liverpool. If so they may be able to get a positive result... Cmon
  16. Injuries has been curse this season, no doubt about that. Title contenders... Not so sure (but not worried as LVG's first season was always about steadying the ship and get into top 4) Don't really think Smalling has had a good season. I get close to a heart attack, every time he think he's Beckenbauer, and starts to dribble up through the field. In defence of Smalling, the system played earlier in the season (3 at the back) didn't suit him nor Jones. With regards to Mata, yes he is a fab player, but again the system Van Gall had utd playing doesn't suit his qualities. Mata is a great no. 10, in a tight 4-4-1-1 or 4-3-1-2 with one winger, but if you play two wingers and two strikers, the midfield gets thin defensively when he plays behind the striker/strikers. LVG want to play with two pacy wingers (the utd way), and pace is not his strength. I will not be surprised to see Mata leave in the summer (despite him having a good game today)... It could be a straight fight between Mata and Fellaini to be no. 10 in the 4-3-3 system played today, which LVG normally favours.
  17. 87Crosby.. You forgot Smalling on your for sale list. Could also add Mata and Fellaini to the sell list. Mata is a good player, but unless they use a system that suits him, he is wasted at Utd. And Fellaini... unless we want to continue like Wimbledon, he is toast..
  18. Utd to break the bank for Thiago Silva. What a leader at the back... And yes De Gea has saved LVG's ass several times this season. Without him we would be in the middle of the league...
