    The midfield is too unbalanced, I'd have Carrick in ahead of Ander as a deeper lying player and let the other two do the leg work

    Carrick doesn't offer anywhere near enough to warrant a place in this team. I wouldn't have him anywhere near that team to a point where I'd be trying to phase in Powell and our other youth players ahead of him. Herrera's been known to not shirk a tackle, he and Vidal is enough steel in midfield.

    I read that page as Fellaini fighters....

    Been a long week. I'm going home now.

    I can see the logic in LVG wanting Di Maria now, last season he played as one of three central midfielders for Real, buts hes also a winger and has pace. It would allow him to play Mata, Rooney and RVP together in their favourite positions


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,889 ✭✭✭✭The Moldy Gowl


    At least Mata can play for us in the champions league now. Moyes was an idiot to not play him.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,889 ✭✭✭✭The Moldy Gowl


    It's the Manchester United thread where going off topic is culled by mods... this is exactly where you come to read ****e about Man Utd.
    Ah stop.

    We shouldnt be on boards at work anyway. We hardly go on in front of the managers and swap windows if they walk past.

    Haha that's basically exactly what I'm doing... I've adblocked all the images on the page to make it look like it's not boards... but it's a futile attempt


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc

    De Gea

    Rafael
    Hummels
    Evans
    Shaw


    Herrera
    Vidal
    Di Maria

    I use a VPN to connect to a laptop at home, that has a linux parition so I read boards through a programme called "links".

    So it just looks like I'm working via a terminal, ala doing my job.

    Although I opened boards properly early to Scarletts lovely jublies and got caught rapa

    No wonder he got fired. Picking valencia and welbeck over Mata.

    That for me is the worst thing about the moyes year, not playing Mata, our record signing, in the champions leauge.

    Your I.T department most likely can monitor you internet activity if they are using an analyzer

    Your screwed Doc

    +1 they can easily find out if they wanna.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,721 ✭✭✭Al Capwned


    That's a good point re Mata. Glad to know he can play in the CL this year for us........

    It completely depends on where he works. Most SMEs wouldn't have the correct infrastructure or expertise on site to monitor web traffic easily, most businesses that do wouldn't be bothered unless they're looking for something specific for some reason.

    It's mad paranoia to be thinking that someone is checking what you're doing on the web in most cases.

    Ah he was saying his boss say something he shouldnt (Miss SJ)

    If the boss had it in for him or just a prick, he could go digging after seeing that

    Some South American reporter from CNN saying Di Maria has agreed a 150k a week deal with us, Tom McDermott retweeted it

    Only report I can find on it. Doubt a player would want or be allowed to distract himself like that days before a WC final.

    That guy was retweeting a Goal article which was a rumour round up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,902 ✭✭✭MagicIRL


    Doubt it's much of a distraction. Agent rings him up, tell him the details, and he goes off to play ball with a spring in his step.

    Exactly, that's what agents are for.

    Ekangamene has been sold to a Belgian team.

    which referenced an article in the metro which referenced reports in MARCA which DID NOT EXIST. they have amended the article to reports in Spain, rather than MARCA, but the reports still don't actually exist.

    You all know I'm a defender of certain journalists, but the metro really do seem to just make stuff up.

    Agent Mitch Connor, Football Transfer Bureau of Investigations, or FtBI.
