    Not sure. It must be some small club way down there. Hardly the type to spend £100m on players.

    As the lowest ranked team left in the competition, i would like to wish Liverpool the best of luck in the FA cup. I do enjoy seeing a plucky underdog sticking it to the big boys every now and then.

    Watching the goals again and it was very considerate of Young to wait until the fans had just finished singing a verse of "we shall not be moved" before scoring. Less considerate players would have disrupted the song!

    I watched the game again just there, from 81 mins on, I had goosebumps. The fans created a simply unbelievable atmosphere. Fergie was even moved by it, as the fans were signing THE CITY IS YOURS? the camera caught him indulging in a "GET THE **** IN" moment with the fans. Great stuff.

    Who's that there below Everton? I can't quite make it out.

    Even after going 5pts clear at top and winning another championship, your still talking about liverpool.

    18 points ahead of 3rd place is insane.

    33 ahead of 7th

    I don't think it's the same at all, he is a high profile footballer who should have a bit of respect for his fellow players and managers, it makes him look like a bit of a dick tbh.

    The daily rags linking us with a move for McClean in the summer. Stranger things have happened I suppose.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,222 ✭✭✭✭Will I Amnt


    Yay,just what we need.........another winger :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,789 ✭✭✭nicklauski


    Ah but he's left footed :P

    Massive result last night. I thought it was going to be one of those nights. Soo much possesion and needed 2 great finishes to settle the nerves.

    Fair play to the away fans, non stop singing and constant belief that United would make the break through.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,739 ✭✭✭jameshayes


    No talk about Scholes getting a deliberate elbow in the jaw?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,184 ✭✭✭Patsy fyre


    The away fans were unbelievable last night. Next game I go to I'm going to try and get to an away match.

    That was a bit scummy alright,Webb obviously missed it,surprise surprise.
    If he didn't think N'Zonzi did much wrong on Jones sure he probably wouldn't have done anything anyway.
    He really is a terrible referee.

    He's not a terrible referee. Not at all.

    I say he is,you say he's not.
    Difference of opinion,you'll get a lot of them around here.

    2 feet away under his nose Phil Jones is grabbed around the neck and thrown to the ground,Webb gives a free kick and no card.
    It wasn't exactly vicious or anything but it's a yellow all day long,you can't do that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,222 ✭✭✭✭Will I Amnt


    Just a mention for De Gea.
    For all the possession and complete domination of that game last night we could have went in at half time a goal or possibly two down.

    He really has been top class after a very shaky start to his time with us.
    I had my doubts like a lot of people after his first few games but I'm absolutely delighted to have him in the team now.
    He could go on to be regarded alongside Schmeichel and Van der Sar.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 35,779 ✭✭✭✭The_Kew_Tour


    There has never been a more inconsistent ref in PL then Webb.

    He could do anything.

    My only worry with De Gea now is whether we will lose him to Barcelona or Real Madrid in a couple of years.

    If he wants to stay at United, he could be a world class number 1 for us for 15 years.

    I'm very much sure it wont be in couple of years. Valdes and Casillas both are 30 and that is young enough for keepers. They still have few more years left in them.

    I'm confident that he will be our long term number 1.

    Dave's saves.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,222 ✭✭✭✭Will I Amnt


    It was a little worrying that he had to make those 3 saves in the first half when Robinson was virtually untested apart from Chicos effort that nearly snaked its way in.
    We don't get off nearly enough shots for the time we spend in the opposition third.
