Despite the fact Moyes was a joke of a manager, I thought it was ridiculous when people were giving out to him for using words such as 'try' and 'hope'. I do agree he wasn't the best at handling the media and answering the questions like a proper Manchester united manager but still, using words like 'try' and 'hope' doesn't mean he's a bad manager.

I am pretty sure i have heard Sir Alex use the word try and hope when asked about the upcoming fixtures, so its not a moyes thing. People need to get over the use of that word and just wait and enjoy when van gaal absolutely destroys the british journos during the conferences

Completely disagree, I thought his choice of words were completely inappropriate for United. He reeked of negativity and undoubtedly passed that on to the players.

Van Gaal was much more forceful there - "we have to build it up and I hope we can do it in one year".

Fergie's language was never like Moyes...

So all these stories of meeting famous people and not 1 picture yet...

I met Giggsy a few weeks back. The guy probably meets tons of fans every week but I just felt like we had something real. I told him a joke and he laughed, and it was a genuine laugh you'd give to a friend you've known your whole life. I can't describe the moment we had other than - it was special.

Luckily I got a photo of the two of us so in years to come I can always look back on that moment.

A lot of you in here are a bunch of lousy ****ers. I once met Bruce Springsteen. Does that make me a lier all of a sudden?

Ah tis yourself, I remember Brucie talking to you alright (he only lets close friends call him Brucie btw) Do you remember me? I was the guy in the boxers who was giving the naked Angelina Jolie, a piggyback over to my helicopter.

I am only catching up with the thread now, so apologies if someone has already mentioned it in the last 10 pages or so, but I propose we re name Bangkok, Jay, from the Inbetweeners. How about it Bang?

Is this you?

Was a cold day , we drew 1 1 against newcastle sitting in the stretford end and ben arfa went down like he'd been shot was a bad day.

In a previous company I worked for I spoke with Paul McGrath when he was looking for car insurance after he got his licence back around 2 years ago, terribly nice bloke and he was pretty funny when asking him about his driving history.

When asked had he any convictions, driving or otherwise he said something to the effect of "heh heh, have you seen the news this week"

He's one I really want to do well, just don't think he'll ever be a regular

lordgoat · 21-05-2014 07:58PM

Things I've learned in here since yesterday.

1. Yaya wants some birthday cake.
2. Someone is very upset at getting busted googling LvG's balls.

indeed. the man is as mad as a bag of cats and really likeable.

if we sign shaw and keep Evra, i hope he goes on loan to a top club and becomes a really top class back up full back - his skill levels are really good and he has been progressing alot this year.

Donnielighto · 21-05-2014 08:42PM

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot
ner ner ner. Loveable rogue

The_Kew_Tour · 21-05-2014 08:54PM

When are the new jerseys out for the full kit **** amongst us??

Whatsisname · 21-05-2014 09:00PM

Wonder what'll actually happen with Buttner next season with the whole dutch connection, wouldn't be a bad left winger I'd say, LVG to work his conversion magic?

Lord TSC · 21-05-2014 09:03PM

Reading reports that Anderson has been sent back and that florentina have opted against buying him

In fairness, Keane has always been quite complimentary of Beckham as a pro as far as I know (and rightly so). You can see how they mightn't be bosom buddies outside of work.

Keane basically said as much in that old interview someone posted a while ago.

"I have no problem with what any of the other players do with their money. Listen, I could not live David Beckham's life and he could not live mine. Everyone is different.
"The United players are not that close socially. On the pitch, however, there is a togetherness. No-one works harder than us.

honestly its no surprise he played feck all games for them and im guessing he might still leave the club, just wont be heading to Florentine

irishfeen · 21-05-2014 09:10PM

Twitter alive with reports/made up stories of a new 38-41 million cesc bid... This summer really is going to be hell until we announce at least one or two.

Metro running the story too in England.

Hococop · 21-05-2014 09:18PM

out of curiosity how far would we like Holland to get, if knocked out early it means LVG will start earlier but we could get major backlash off the dutch media (saying we distracted the team and coach so close to the WC etc) I know some people will say he is a professional and wont be distracted but that wont stop the media playing the blame game.

obviously if they get to the final it looks great for us but it means he will have very little time before pre season starts.

personally id like them to make it to the quarter finals
