    Gazzetta dello Sport. Easier to type GdS.

    Is this the same Gazzeta that said we signed Vidal to a 5 yr contract? Lads...

    The point of [thing] is [same thing] is a nonsense statement. But whatever, I'll leave ye to your pity party.

    You left out the last part of my sentence in your post, which was kind of my point. You only want to discuss things that you find enjoyable. I don't agree, which was the point I was making.

    Pity party is a cheap shot.

    I think the problem you're having is moaning != discussion.

    Don't think its been posted. LVG quote on Rojo:
    "He has ability, physical strength and a willingness to learn that means he has a very bright future ahead of him," the United manager said. "He had a very strong World Cup and has been playing in Europe for a couple of years now. He is a very good addition to the team."

    he did kinda play CM for Madrid last season a bit, in a midfield 3 - but UNited don't scare or dominate teams like Madrid do so i don't think it would work here. We don't have a defensive minded CM player capable of making it work, imo.

    The Glazers make me sick to the core. Just a mere glance at their rat faces and their dead eyes makes me want to punch the screen. Would love to see them chased out of our club.

    Edit: and some people constantly give out about Fellaini, while that shower who have pillaged the club for years are sitting up in the stands grinning at how they pulled off the robbery of funds that were earned from fans and hard working staff.

    But they are considerably richer than yows!

    You and Maximus seem to be the ones having the problem.

    This, in a particular system and especially as part of a team whereby there are others for the opposition to be thinking about he can work. In our midfield though we'd continue to be run over.

    It was an escape clause. I'm trying to abort this discussion because I'm not enjoying it.
    Let's not fight. x

    Hard to argue with the idea of writing a big cheque for a couple of Madrid players. Any two of the four mentioned by Scholes would be brilliant for United and the injection of quality needed for today.

    Khedira and Di Maria as unrealistic as it is would be everything the side needs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,528 ✭✭✭Claude Burgundy


    Rojo profile added to the club website and he is no 5 !

    Now to fill 7 and 9 !!!

    Nicky Butt was sat near us on Saturday and he looked depressed, he would have seen and heard the same disgruntled fans that i did. He too will surely be in Giggs ear, Woodwards ear.

    Surely you've left out the most important ear of the lot...LVG?? Are the disgruntled fans you speak of bypassing him in their quest to be heard?




    *****I believe we need a couple of players too*****

    Before I get accused of being 'happy' with the status quo....

    Nah we definitely don't need a number 9....after all it's the cool thing these days to talk about players positions in terms of their shirt numbers....there was a lad the other week talking about the differences between a number 6 and a number 8, fascinating stuff.

    would you cross LVG? i certainly wouldnt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,547 ✭✭✭Your Airbag


    You and others keep having a go at others for saying the same thing, however if the club sorted things out, it would end. If people stopped posting "i am happy/almost happy" then it wouldnt be as much a problem.if people stopped defending woodward, the "moaners" would lessen.


    So people should stop saying what they actually believe because you disagree with it?

    As our new glorious leader why don't you just come up with a list of things we can and can't say or believe. So we don't upset you by, you know, having a different opinion.

    Jesus wept.

    RVP is our #9, just in a different shirt because of Berbasex. I imagine someone like Wilson or Keane will eventually take the shirt, probably Wilson.

    #7 is up for grabs though.

    Can we stop using Jesus wept, it's annoying.

    Show him a picture of William Gallas in his number 10 shirt and Abou Diaby with number 2. His head will explode.

    What ever happened to that fella, I think it was during the 12/13 season, who wanted to fundraise to bring CR7 back to Old Trafford, so he set up this website and there was a really cringe video to go with it about his son never getting to see the greatest player in the world or some ****.
