    Ah ya can't beat the TV. I've a Season pass for Flashsportsstreams and I still got all the Sky Sports stations turned back on.. FFS is good for the games not on Sky but having a match with proper quality and sound ( no buffing as the lads said ) is great.

    Pachuca have confirmed United have shown an interest in Mexican Olympic midfielder Hector Herrera. Speaking to ESPN Desportes, sporting director Andres Fassi revealed: "It's an official interest. We have the document but there is nothing more."

    Rooney will get 20 league goals this season. Minimum.

    But a player with his ability could be getting 40.

    I honestly think that's why Rooney gets so much stick when things aren't going his way, we all know what he is capable of. He is so ridiculously talented, but last season, while the goals were there, he was not firing on all cylinders.

    He is so good that when he plays rubbish, he can still pop up with a goal or two, but he is such a huge influence on our team that when he is off, it looks like the entire team is off.

    Honestly the stuff being written in here since last night is beyond ludicrous. Think I'll avoid until Saturday when hopefully we beat Fulham and maybe then the banging of the face off the keyboard posters will have subdued a bit.

    Looking at last night's game, it's like Rooney and Anderson have been eating Nemanja's dinner...they're like Free Willy and Jabba the Hutt and he's like Kate Moss.

    £39.99 at the moment.

    Its worth it just for all the other sports stations and stuff they have.. Great for when your not at home and want to watch it.

    They did have Apple streams which was great for iphone / ipad.. but removed them to make them more secure,,, someone must have hacked the streams.

    1st thing i noticed when I seen Nemanja was his weight.. Looks like he's lost 2-3 stone !!

    We get the point. Ando is fat. Rooney is carrying more weight than he should be. The two women you were near during the match said 'the state of them'. Time to stick it in your sig and move on.

    Must register and see just what they offer so, and is this LOF that everyone seems to be complaining about never being open for registration a similar deal?

    It's football,opinions are going to differ,especially after a defeat.
    Granted,there's been a few ridiculous posts over the last few pages,borderline trolling from a couple that I would imagine are not even United fans but there's always the ignore function if you don't want to read what they are saying.....

    Actually thought anderson looked a bit slimmer than usual last night. Rooney did well over the summer though.

    Rooney is rightly judged to high standards. At 16 he sensationally ended Arsenal's long unbeaten run with a screamer and then burst on to the international scene at Euro 2004. His United debut was certainly the greatest I've ever seen and even negative naysayers like Dunphy and Giles described him at the time as "potentially the greatest player that the world has seen since Pele".

    Yes he scored goals last season but he has not and is not fulfilling the promise that he showed back in those early years. That's what annoys people in my view. Of course he's not "sh1te" relative to players that are actually sh1te (e.g. Andy Carroll), but relative to where Rooney should be right now with his talent, he's a disgrace in my view. Note that the above is in the context of where he should be. A professional athlete should not be overweight. A guy who's clearly destined to be fat unless he minds himself should have the cop on not to spend the summer boozing, eating and smoking (and hanging out with that idiot Piers Morgan, but that's another story).

    All I read was SAF was worried above the defence so left him out to allow more defensive options on the bench.

    A disgrace?

    85 goals in the last three seasons and he missed a lot of 10/11. Thats two seasons he has been close to the 40 goal mark.

    People have gone into meltdown today after the loss last night. It was only one game ffs. If Rooney curled in an equaliser none of this would be said. One shot on target and he would still be our star player but no, hes fat and should be dropped instead.

    What Giles and Dunphy say is meaningless. Didnt you know Ronaldo is a brat, a spoofer and will never be a great player.

    Ronney for some reason is taking the brunt of the frustration for last nights loss. Is he the new Park now?

    Berbatov bags a load of goals and hes a lazy player who doesnt do it in the big games. Ronney scores loads in all types of games and he's a fat disgrace.

    Some posters in here are an embarresment. Loss is a part of football and life. Last nights will not be the last, please learn how to act appropriatley when it happens again.

    Well then why have Berba on the bench, doesn't make sense, I thought Chico was ahead of him in the pecking order.

    He can play centre half as well if needs be.

    You will think I am mad, but Berba filled in as an emergency defender before so I guess SAF wanted the option again if anything happened. Wootton was the only centre back - back up

    I heard today it was because #PSG have come in hense the reason Berba was on the bench instead. I realllly hope it doesn't happen.

    I remember when Keano came back from his cruciate injury he looked very slim. It's an intensive rehab process from a cruciate (as I know) so Vidic losing weight isn't a big surprise.

    Can anybody imagine Ronaldo starting a new season overweight and unfit?

    Damn right you can't, and thats why he is a legend and why Rooney will never reach his heights.

    I hope to god that isn't true and Berba was there a makeshift defender.
    I know a lot of you here have been slating Chico, offsides etc, but IMO he could be as big a legend at the club as Ole was, similar sort of striker too.
