    Not sure if it was mentioned in the thread yet, but I read earlier that it's big Ed's birthday today.

    This shoot-out was (probably) more down to Chelsea/Terry slipping up than Ed's class between the sticks, but I still recall the moment he got his hands to Anelka's penalty and that for me was my favourite moment of his in a United jersey.

    On a side-note - regardless of how his career diminished at United I still love Anderson's peno and the fact that he stepped up to the plate, but I think he was only on the pitch to take a penalty. There's no finesse involved, he just buries the thing home! G'wan son! :p

    Don't like seeing a player get injured and I hope its nothing too serious but if Silva is not ready for Sunday that's a bloody god dam plus for us.

    I also love Anderson's penalty! Hargreaves took a beauty too that night. I miss him and Tevez in the team. Both brilliant players for us when fit.

    Hargreaves and Carrick's penos were terrific.

    Cechh keeps getting closer to Nani's peno. I remember for split second Chelsea fans thinking he had saved it.

    If I watch it anymore Nani peno going be missed and we will have lost the cup

    I have no qualms about hoping he has an injury that will keep him out for a week.

    Also, Mangala has had a shocking start to his City career. He may do a Vidic in the long run but I hope we can take advantage of his uneasiness on Sunday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,134 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    They may have to use Aguero at some stage too, will take any advantage before this game

    I was gutted when Charlie T left. Probably even more so than Stam or Ruud. Tevez had a phenomenal workmate when playing, and I genuinely think he wanted to stay for more than just the moo'lah. Just one of those things I suppose. Hard to see him go on to become a hero at City too!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,732 ✭✭✭Schwiiing


    Looking at Ronaldos and Anelkas peno's, you'd imagine professional footballers would know better than to take a short run up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,111 ✭✭✭✭RasTa


    Extra time would be nice too.

    even newcastle surely cant blow this now?

    City have been muck so far..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,408 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Can't see City losing three times in a week or back to back home games.

    I dunno how it'll work out but I think it is a great time to play them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    Meh, form goes out the window in these games for the most part


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,732 ✭✭✭Schwiiing


    It'll be the 1 game all season Yaya will arsed with. City are good for 3 or 4 against our defence. Aguero will be well up for it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,222 ✭✭✭✭Will I Amnt


    Been well and truly spanked by City of late, feels like an age since RvP's injury time free kick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,732 ✭✭✭Schwiiing


    Or Scholes' late header.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    Or Rooney's overhead kick.

    Any Rooney update?

    Hes probably had his dinner at this stage...

    Maybe sitting down with a nice cup of tea to watch the tv about now.

    To be fair thats sort of why his career at Utd has diminished:pac:

    So silva AND Yaya both picked up injuries (albeit a minor one for Yaya)

    Interesting.

    If Yaya plays as he has all season and our midfield plays as it did on Sunday, Toure's presence would be a non-event compared to them losing Silva.

    He could decide to turn it on in a big derby match but he has returned to the disinterest he showed after they won their first title.

    Please. No. If PaddyPower gets wind that the Anderson jokes are funny again... Well we all know whats going to happen.
