It looks like Carrick, Cleverley and Welbeck are the only ones intending to exert themselves in training so they've put on the shorts, but the rest of the lads need to keep warm with their full length bottoms.

welbeck is not in shorts.....

He is, he just has deceptively short legs so they go all the way to his ankles.

Only if he's played.

Id love to see him get given the faith Valencia has. But I can't see it happening. He'll get picked, have a poor game, and go right back to the bench.

Is that Mata behind Welbeck or Buttner? And Januzaj behind Young?

RVP setting record straight.

Whatsisname · 13-03-2014 09:51PM

Robin van Persie has spoken out to set the record straight, insisting he wants to remain at Manchester United beyond his current contract, which runs until summer 2016.

In a revealing interview with official matchday programme United Review, the Dutchman says he felt compelled to address current press speculation claiming he wants out of Old Trafford and doesn’t get on with key staff and team-mates.

“I don’t mind if my performances get dissected and people criticise what I’ve done on the pitch,” van Persie said. “They can talk about my game 24/7 for all I care… and a lot of those opinions and criticisms may actually be right. So I don’t mind that.

“What I need to address are the situations when people are taking it upon themselves to think for me, make assumptions, or interpret things as if they are me. Last time I checked my head was still attached to my body, so I’m the only one who knows exactly what I’m feeling and that is not what I or the fans have been reading.

“The truth is I’m very happy here at this club. I signed for four years and I’d be delighted to stay even longer, beyond the next two years I have left on my contract. This is how I feel, although it’s not what has been suggested in the media.”

Robin also underlined he has a good relationship with his team-mates and club coaching staff, including manager David Moyes.

“I’m very happy with my team-mates and I’m very happy with my manager and his staff. The sessions we have on the training ground are fantastic and I’m learning a lot from them every day. I’ve been a professional footballer for 12 years now and there’s no doubt I’m learning new things and progressing with David Moyes.

“Like I said, talk about my performances or talk about a tackle that was too late. I don’t mind. But it goes too far when people start suggesting, amongst other things, that I have a bad understanding with the manager. That’s not true at all.

“Over the last few years I’ve started to look more closely at the way coaches work to learn from them – not just here at the club but with the international team as well. I’ve worked with some brilliant coaches and I’ve taken a real interest in all the methods they use and the choices they make.

“I can tell you that Moyes’ sessions and the things he says in his team meetings are spot-on. I really enjoy working under him and I’m absolutely convinced things will pick up and we’ll turn it around.

“There is mutual respect between us and the work environment is actually good. He really wants things to work here at Manchester United and I want the same, just like the other players. We’re all working hard to make this work.”

Decent story from #MUFC expected later tonight...

Anyone any ideas what this is about? He's a highly respected journo for the BBC so no bullsh1ting here.

But what about Cavani?

I want Cavani.

Is it not the story above your post ?

Those don't sound like the words of a man playing for a clueless manager

Ya think it is, posted at the same time/just before I did.

Apparently Cantona's been arrested for hitting someone on a London Street

shadowcomplex · 13-03-2014 10:46PM

How happy would you guys be if the only buisness we did in the summer was buy a world class central midfielder, a world class left back and a world class centre back and rvp, kagawa stayed too? Or do you think more is needed?

For instance would this be good enough to win the league or at least challenge?

Dea Gea

Raf---Jones/evans/Smalling---Mangala---Shaw

Fellaini---Kroos

---Mata

Rooney

Kagawa/Januzai

RVP

irishfeen · 13-03-2014 10:47PM

Nice to hear a bit of good news coming out of the United camp for a change.

Not trying to be pedantic but shaw is not a world class LB (Regardless of an individuals understanding of that term).

But if that was the business we would do in the summer Id be delighted.

Just read the RVP interview. He's so refreshing. Idomt know what it is but he just seems to not speak like a machine. Made some poignant points.

One of our star strikeers giving Moyes a big thumbs up. Fellaini coming out saying he owes this manager so much and will do all he can to ensure he succeeds. Rooney's well documented positive stuff.

Its what we needed a lot earlier. The big guns giving big backing. Hopefully can get things bonded a bit tighter and the team go on a vicous run. Potential wishful thinking but maybe this will put the **** to bed and RVP can hit some end of season form.

He is a star man...won us the title to a certain respect last year...should be dragging us out of this mess. Hopefully willing to dawn that responsibility

I assume that behind the scenes Moyes is impressive. If it wasn't players could just say nothing. But the fact is they are always positive when speaking about him.

RVP in a bit of a stink last while...hopefully a chat was had..he cleared his head...is over Fergie and we can move on.

I'd be gutted if he left in truth.

I think the biggest problem with him leaving now would be having to spend a hell of a lot of money to replace him which would eat into our budget thats needed more urgently for midfield/LB/CB. We wont get much for him at this stage of his career but trying to replace him would be astronomical money
