    The size of Falcoa's glasses, he must have been looking at old repeats of Corrie. Where's Vera?

    I started a new career last night with utd on FIFA.
    I'm not gonna sell Anderson just to annoy you. I'm gonna play him. I'm gonna bring him back to his former glory

    I should have edited Fellaini to maroune wildman

    I just heard some rubbish about Herrera and scamming matches in Spain off a guy in the kitchen in work? What iz diz?

    Its true that prosecuters have named him along with others
    Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera is one of 41 players, coaches and directors named in a match-fixing investigation in Spain.
    Prosecutors allege almost one million Euros was used to pay Levante players to lose their match against Zaragoza at the end of the 2010-11 season.
    Swansea City winger Jefferson Montero is also among those named by prosecutor Alejandro Luzon. The BBC has asked Herrera's agent for a response. A Swansea spokesman said: "We have had no contact... regarding this matter."

    It could get serious, hard to tell.

    Ander Hererra releasing a statement via FB on recent events -

    "Ander Herrera – statement:

    In an on-going legal process involving Real Zaragoza (Spain), the club I was honoured to play from 12 until 22 years of age, there are 41 people cited as possible witnesses, of which I am one.
    I have never had and will never have anything to do with manipulating match results.
    If I am ever called to testify in any judicial hearing, I’ll be happy to attend, as my conscience is totally clear.
    I love football and I believe in fair play, both on and off the pitch."

    I hope to God the lad is telling the truth.

    Seriously, how in the name of christ can he be involved? When it's alleged the players on the losing team were paid to lose, and he was on the winning team???

    Unless he just had knowledge of it, but that strikes me a pretty stupid, letting the players on the other team know. I'm sure they don't need any added incentive to try and win the game.

    If he was on the losing team, then I'd be worried.

    the charge is that he received monies from his club into his bank account, then took it out as cash and gave it to the losing side players.

    if (and i know its a big f*cking if right now), we had all our players fit, what would your first 11 be?

    for me it would be as follows -
    DDG
    Rafael
    Rojo
    Smalling
    Shaw
    Carrick
    Herrera
    Di Maria
    Rooney
    Falcao
    RVP

    Subs - Lindegaard,Jones,Evans,Fellaini,Young,Mata,Blind.

    that still leaves Adnan, McNair,Blackett,Wilson, Fletcher.

    2 or 3 top class players next summer at CB, CM and RB would make that into a serious first 11.

    Ye'll have to look at a striker soon, can't rely on the OAP forward line for too long. Falcao isn't even ye'rs.

    More or less the same for me, but maybe Fellaini for Herrera as he adds that bit more defensive solidity and physicality to the midfield, which is very welcome in that system IMO. It's a pity because I like Herrera a lot and he is much better on the ball than Fellaini.

    Edit: Jones also has a claim on one of the CB spots.

    Jones for Smalling or Rojo, Valencia for Rafael.
    Otherwise I like the look of it.

    Rooney, RVP and Falcao should not be on the pitch together. Its just picking a team based on their names and not what is best for the team.

    And why exactly would you drop Wilson for Falcao and not Herrera?

    What sort of logic is that? Thats not a team selection based on whats best for the team, but on whats best for an individual player.

    If Falcao needs games then rotate him with Rooney or RVP, don't shoehorn him in at the expense of the midfield.
