    If you took away the White sides and changed the Chevy Logo to Sharp you have an Early 90's Jersey.

    Smalling was shocking at the weekend

    He really wasnt it was a great defensive performance until LVG decided to change things up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,143 ✭✭✭D-FENS


    This Mensah lad is getting huge praise


    Only turned 17 less than 2 weeks ago, could have a beast on our hands here

    Himself and Tuanzebe could be a future CB pairing if they continue to progress. Supposed to be high hopes for both but its a few years off yet.

    Guillem Ballague: Cristiano Ronaldo has told his Real Madrid team mates he will go back to Manchester United some day.”

    Will believe it, when I see it.

    Henriquez has signed a permanent deal with Dinamo Zagreb.

    He does mention the club pretty regularly, hard to ignore us with the support we still give him.
    You see it all the time from players who move within their own country, but is it rare enough for a foreign player to keep doing it after he’s moved away to another league?
    Henry would be an example, and he came back….

    LVG must have some underlying issue with Falcao. Theres no other reason why he deserved to be dropped from the squad for last weeks game.
    His missus had a baby, there are no issues there. Don't believe anything in the press.

    He'll come back as an ambassador when his career is over. Not quite the same.

    Pogba teasing us?

    “I’m an impatient type, that’s why I left Manchester United,” said Pogba. “I felt that I had to. The coach had confidence in me but I was not playing.

    “Sir Alex Ferguson told me ‘Your time will come’ but that moment never came. But this does not mean that I will not speak with Manchester United. I love the club.’

    Chinese whispers

    Paul Pogba: "Sir Alex said 'Your time will come'. It didn't come. But it doesn’t mean I will speak ill of Man Utd. I love the club."


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,986 ✭✭✭Spazdarn


    At least he's admitted his impatience, which is a bit of a surprise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,775 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    It does look like Pogba is building a bridge at the moment, maybe he wants to return?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,986 ✭✭✭Spazdarn


    Aggh no point even talking about it, 60-80 million for a player that left go for free.

    He already resigned back in 2012. :P

    Pogba won't win a Champions league with Juventus i am sure we are a viable option if we get in the top 4.

    I'd let Fletcher go to West Brom in a heartbeat. As great as it is that he's back playing football with his illness he's finished at the top level.

    Surely he has all the attributes of an amazing box to box midfielder? Quick feet and a strike like his are generally enough to bag 10+ goals a season too

    Ladyman reporting Januzaj set to move on loan, but no destination confirmed yet.

    Fletcher is finished at the top level. He won't even be in the starting 11 for WBA, he is better off taking some coaching role at United.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,812 ✭✭✭thelad95


    I've said it before, I'd like to see Fletcher drop a division or two to end his career playing regular first team football. He still has something to offer, just not at this level.

    Wonder if we put a buyback clause in that deal with Juventus.

    There was never questions about his talent, it was all down to his rubbish attitude. Maybe now that he is a bit older and wiser, he realises he was being nurtured and gently exposed to the first team.

    I've long maintained the brash stance of that Fergie was right as the player had a horrendous attitude at the time and was being led easily by his agent. But I'd be lying if I said I havn't been utterly frustrated the last 18 months seeing how he has developed.

    Would be incredible if we had a cheeky buyback clause in there :D
