He said: "If I lose control of these multi-millionaires in the Manchester United dressing room then I'm dead. So I never lose control. If anyone steps out of my control, that's them dead."

Looks like there might be some disgruntle multi- millionaires getting a bit bold in the dressing r00m. It`s a matter of time before the culprit gets isolated . By the sound of it I wonder if fergie soprano has neville doing them in :LOL: my guest might be rafael he`s young rich and knows he`s the future. Where is Park? injured?
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Once a player is isolated or missing we know he crossed him ( I just predicted Rafael to be the next disgruntle ). I think he wants us to believe his job is more dangerous then it is w/ the whole do or die bit. What I understood was he comes across that he has more control than the owner,chairman and players none would cross him not even the Red Devil itself :LOL:

Managers become the way they are only because they were given that sort of power. Bosses have their signature ways and Fergie`s is to gripe about refs as Wenger is blind he never see...Mourinho`s emotional, best triple pump fist goal scored celebrations w/ the better team lost . Rafa`s lack of emotions, worst goal scored celebration( he takes out a pad and marks "Hoorah! we scored!") . Ian Dowey best missed goal reaction can`t even express it in words w/ his head /body twisting bit.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I think I agree with you in saying that he thinks he's a bigger/stronger figure at the club than most but he'd never put himself above the club itself. He respects the tradition and the whole "United way" of doing things too much to say he's bigger than the club.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Right, so its 4-4-2 and Owen and Rooney are starting. Rio's back and Gary isnt playing. As of right now, we have no excuses.

EDIT
Looks like I didnt need any.
20 league goals in 23 games. He's turning into a machine.

Seems Tevez scoring twice pissed him off no end.

19 in 22 league games Rune, 20 in 28 overall.

He just needs to score in Europe now, he's not got one yet.

I fear for Citeh's defence with him like this.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Great performance today, Fuck me Nani was Ronaldo Mk 2 today, Simply awesome for the 90. Rooney was again our only real source of a goal though which is great to see him scoring so many but worrying if he were injured/suspended.

Rio at the back helped big time, his distribution and calmness helped a lot. All we need know is Vida :))

Enjoyed the Glazer out chants the whole way through. Overall very good and more of the same on Wednesday.

Exactly and he said as much in the programme notes today.

"Manchester United is bigger than me, the players, the directors, the officials and fans. And, particularly at this critical stage of the season, we need to pull in the same direction."

Decent performance today, I was a bit worried we weren't gonna kill the game off and they would get a jammy equaliser, especially when they had that chance that went just past the post at 1-0. Then they got tired and it all started to click and Rooney and Nani were devastating.

Nice to have Rio back, I just hope he doesnt get banned (along with Evra :P) for the punch on Fagan, not that the little cunt didn't totally deserve it.

Really happy for Nani, nice to prove his haters wrong, he's a frustrating bastard at times but he's shown he can do it.

Really happy for Wayne too as he's looked like the only one who cares at times and hasn't always got the goals his performances have deserved.

Really happy for me because I had him as captain on fantasy football nabbing me a cool 64 points for this week. :COOL:

Loving the anti-Glazer chants and the gold and green. Looks like the media have picked up on it too.

Boosh.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

wow.. Rooney! there are nicer ways about pushing Arsenal down to 2nd spot :P a 1-0 would of been great. Oh well
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I think thats the first time Ive watched a game without Nani frustrating me. Well played to him, maybe he should be left on the right wing instead of putting him on the left, but then there is Valencia! I would love to see an out an out left winger signed to balance the team up that little bit more. Also whats happend to Obertan! from starting a few games to not even getting on the bench now
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Was gonna mention that. He hasnt done much wrong but isnt even making the bench. He's not injured, is he?
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

To be fair he was shit against Leeds.

He played for the reserves on Thursday and set up Diouf's second goal, he'll still be on the fringes, Fergie's probably just easing him in slowly.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Tbh if Ruud was available on a free at the beginning of the season would you sign him over Michael Owen? Despite the fact he had a personal spat with SAF?
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I definately would, I'm sure Sir Alex wouldnt though. No need to explain why.

Just caught the highlights on Sky. Nani's performance was probably the best I had ever seen from him. His delivery was brilliant, his tricks, his freekick, etc were very Ronaldo-esque. Lets see if he can keep it up.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Real Madrid have hired that super agent Zahavi and told him, his objective is to get Wayne Rooney. I know Perez always gets what he wants but Madrid can promptly fuck off thank you!

I cannot see Rooney ever leaving United in the forseeable future! Ronaldo left because he wanted to, Rooney's happy to stay! Honesty I tell every one don't believer everything you read in the papers if we did...

We'd have Sol Campbell by now and apparently Joe Cole is coming to us on a free transfer in the summer!
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Even though Owen's finishing was not quite to his standards, yesterday's game just showed how Rooney's at his best when partnering someone else upfront.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I agree, he definitely works better with another striker with him, although yesterday he scored 3 of his 4 when Berbatov was up with him, not Owen.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Good to see Rooney score with a man down in the area. And it's not a dig, if teams cry wolf the whole game they shouldn't complain when it bites them on the ass. Although strangely there seems to be a total lack of coverage about it, guess it's because he is an England player. Was hoping it would cause a small storm to get people to realise the total nonsense it is when players fake injuries to waste time.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Aye, play to the whistle.

Hull actually had the chance to clear it out for a corner or throw in just before the goal but kept it in play.

And it was funny to see Rooney, for the goal, trying to stay onside with the last defender even though the "injured" defender was playing everyone onside.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Hahah yeah I noticed that, he was probably just making sure the lino had no chance of calling him offside for the guy down being 'inactive'. Like Abou said, they had a chance to put it out and didn't. What incentive was there for the defender to get up? Stay down and there's a chance we'll put the ball out, very cynical but if we'd given up a chance to score for him to then just get up we'd be fuming.

Fuck 'em, it was hardly the worst act of poor sportsmanship we've seen lately.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I just think back to Chelsea against us at the start of the season. I guess most teams would have made the most of it in a situation like that.

As for the Rooney/Madrid rumours, I'm sure the player wants to stay but our financial situation really worries me. We needed the sale of Ronaldo to make a profit otherwise we wouldnt even have broken even. If Madrid get another £70-£80 million together for Rooney, how can we expect the Glazers to say no?
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Rooney won't leave(yet at least anyway). He's so vital to our team right know its frightening, If theirs ever been a time for opposition to call us a one man team its now. SAF Wouldn't let him leave and if we need money then Vidic will probably be the one off to Real.

Thought I'd post this comp, lad was awesome and gives us a problem at right wing.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Nice move at 3:30. Owen really should have hit that harder.

Well they'd have to drag Wazza to Madrid, and force his hand to hold the pen and sign the contract probably.

And if they ever did, I think Fergie would actually speak up against them, not to mention fans rioting in the streets..
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Whatever happened to Kiko anyway? Last time I heard he was being punished by SAF for his lack of improvement.

I think 4 strikers is more than enough anyway. Might as well lend him to another club for half a year.
