Manchester United Thread

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I'm not bashing them. Its another Lampard-like arguement where some would say that he has an excellent shot whereas others would argue that he takes so many that some are bound to go in.
I know Ronaldo's technique isnt as hit-and-miss as he makes it look with the way he strikes the ball, but lets be honest, theres still an element of luck involved. He usually gets the target more often than not, but he he has to hope that theres enough movement on the way to put the keeper off.
Hargreaves on the other hand takes it more like how Beckham does.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Un dossier qui ne manque pas de surprendre puisque selon Aujourd’hui Sport, à l’occasion d’une séance photo pour un jeu vidéo dont il est une des égéries, Benzema serait apparu devant tout un public avec la tunique de l’OL... avant de s’éclipser derrière un paravent, à l’abri des regards d’un public soigneusement écarté, pour poser avec le maillot de MU ! Certes l’information est à prendre avec des pincettes, mais il y a de quoi y voir un signe.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

that's a really awful photoshop job, look at the bit where the stripe meets the collar :LOL:


edit: this was re: the white/red fake away kit, i clicked this thread and it took me to that page so i thought it was the latest post, didn't know there were 3 pages after it :LOL:
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

For the first time ever...Lyon and all their bosses are willing to let Karim Benzema come to us if he wants to and if the offer is good enough.I say...SHOW THEM THE MONEY SIR ALEX!!!
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Huh? Where you hear that from? Lets look at the more imminent signing of Valencia. I think its safe to say its a done deal IMO. He's a upgrade on Park IMO, has great work ethic but with a lot more quality going forward. I hope we don't get stupid people comparing him to Ronaldo. He's not his replacement.

they haven`t won it since the change the name to Premier league so, them winning it now will be a massive victory for them and fans
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Well they haven't won it since 89 but nearly right Jonney.

I think Valencia's a good signing, he is an upgrade on Jason Park like you said and if he can work on his final ball etc I think he'll do well. I remember when we were linked with him and Palacios just before the final game of 07/08 when we had to beat Wigan and everyone thought it was bullshit to put them off their game! I guess not!!
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

More rumours coming out from Lyon players that Benzema deal is on...not sure I understand how our formation would work if it's true, unless someone is willing to be benched of Rooney/Benzema/Berbatov...particularly as we've just acquired a wide player in Valencia (?)

Unless he's a luxury - used when we play 4-3-3 and not when we're in a 4-4-2. Which seems a gargantuan waste to me.

Then again, how tasty does this look:

----------Vds----------
-Raf---Rio---Vida--Evra-
---Hargreaves-Carrick---
--------Berbatov--------
-Valencia------Rooney---
---------Benzema--------

!
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Yum.

Oh and swap Wesmond Browninho in for Rafael when we need someone a bit tougher and more solid defensively.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Just shows what a problem we have with Berbatov. Why did we buy him?

Seriously, I don't want him playing that deep, and I don't want Rooney playing on the left.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Valencia is expected to be a direct replacement for Ronaldo on the right-hand side... for :CONFUSE: WHO? that is a very ambitious statement tbh
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Nobody from United has said that have they?

The only quotes from SAF I've seen are “Antonio is a player we have admired for some time now, having spent the last two years in the Premier League with Wigan. I am sure his pace and ability will make a significant contribution to the team.”

No mention of Ronaldo.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Ahh ok, it's just when you said 'ambitious statement' it sounded like you meant from the club.

YG - I'm with you on this, Berba will shine.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I'm going to get flamed, but I think berbatov is a lot like ibrahimovic. Tall, strong, good feet/technique and lazy with bad attitudes on the pitch but not off the pitch. And I like it!
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I hope so to would love to get Benzema wanted him for ages not a fan of Valencia really but at least he better then Nani.

Just that Ibrahimovich is much better.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I don't want Benzema this season.

I want an agreement Ronaldo-style for next season, regardless of how well he plays this year/at the world cup.

He wants to stay at Lyon for one more year so we should definitely let him, hopefully he then has a great year and is ready to take on the Prem and play for us 2010/11.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Didnt Benzema just have a shite season ?

If he found it hard going in the French league last season, then the English league will be tough for him! I wouldnt jump straight into this transfer at all
