    Are you going to captain him in FPL? I'm gauging your worriedness here

    Even with Chelsea at home to QPR, I am considering it. That's how concerned I am.

    Hopefully Rooney and Falcao are ok.

    I find it odd that Aguero wasn't hauled up in front of the FA for his stamp the other day.
    The statement was that "the referee dealt with it",maybe I watched the wrong game but the ref did nothing at the time.Did his report state "I saw him stamp 2 footed on his opponent but felt it didn't warrant action"?
    I thought retrospective action was to be taken if the ref didn't take action for an offense.

    Aguero has a nasty streak hes done it twice against Chelsea, in the FA Cup semi final he had a wild two footed stamp on Luiz down his thigh.

    Hes probably the best CF in the league but hes got a nasty tendency and hes got away with it so far in England while others would probably have been hung out to dry by some quarters.

    Homegrown talent table here, we're up in second behind Barcelona.

    City have gotten away with absolute murder when it comes to the lack of punishment of such incidents.

    Not a "big 5" league club.

    Don't worry, I'll captain Aguero. I stopped his goalscoring run by bringing him in for the weekend so will double up the pressure this week :p

    I did the same thing after swearing never to buy Aguero again after getting stung with him previous seasons.

    He always seems to pick up an injury directly after I buy him.

    Yeah, clicked into it there. Sozbbz

    There's a thread started about it so probably best to comment on there.

    Tv3 showing "United" tonight at 9pm


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 792 ✭✭✭KombuchaMshroom


    Any way of changing up the Anderson chant to make it for Fellaini instead?
    1st or 2nd name could work as they both have 3 syllables and he did a lot more sh!tting on fabregas at the weekend then Anderson ever did?

    We should tell them pay the 17m or Fook Off, They always get premium price for the players they sell. We sold them Ruud for 9m which was a joke

    They really don't you know, its quite often the other way around in fact, they off load for less then they should, they pay a big premium a hell of a lot.

    Watched it before & though it was excellent. Speaking as football fan in general it was such a tragedy.

    Jaysus that was a hard watch, excellent stuff.

    Only caught the last hour, emotional stuff. In todays game no club could recover so quick, and only a handful could recover from it without it crippling the club, horrible to think about it :(

    Yup, watched it before and there were tears shed.

    In a somewhat related topic, I read this article around the same time and found it very interesting, hadn't heard about it before but would have thought there'd be a tighter bond between Real and United afterwards? (as in more recent years)

    I support Real Madrid as my Spanish team for this reason, even if I think their transfer policy can be bewildering at times.
    But at least it benefited us for a change.

    Fellaini ni ni
    Doesn't have a dodgy knee
    Fellaini ni ni
    Vidal no longer do we need
    To the left to the right, do the Afro dance all night
    He is class with the pass
    And he sh1ts on Fabregas*

    * I do not agree with most of what I've written up there!

    Seen a few rumours linking us with Virgil van dijk, Aymeric Laporte and that man again, Ezequiel Garay........

    I'd be very surprised if we don't sign a central defender in the next window, would any of the above 3 be commanding enough for us ?

    Jones, Smalling and Evans just not up to it......

    I think it's more a case of not keeping fit than not being up to it.

    Evans has shown in the past he is more than good enough.
    Jones when finally given a run of games has improved massively
    Smalling i seen him Sunday and off the ball his movement and anticipation is fantastic my worry is his ability on the ball
    Rojo i am still not sold on

    I'm well aware of their fitness problems but outside of that i've yet to see any sign from them that they will develop into the commanding no nonsense centre half our defence really lacks....

    Fellaini woah oh
    Fellaini woah oh
    He looks like a massive tree
    He completely bossed Chelsea....

    try and have a go if you dare.
