Watched Nani last night in the U-21 Championships and although he didnt do much there was a certain Dutch player who caught my eye and probably many others named Drenthe. He played on the left wing mainly but also shifted to the right and centre. He was strong, quick, great dribbling ability and a great cross on him. Definitely in my opinion a player United should have a look at.

Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

There's a rumour going around that Everton might be signing Richardson & Brown soon.
Now, Richardson, I'd drive him there myself(!), but not sure if Wes should be allowed to go - what do you guys reckon?

@Vann: we currently have an Italian (Rossi), so if we are after Quagliarella it might be an incentive to have someone who can speak the same language as him?

I do like Brown, he's a good defender just been unlucky with injuries, dont think it'd be good to lose Brown, Pique and Heinze, defeats the object of beefing the squad up....

doh!! Cant believe I forgot Rossi, apparently he's wanted by Porto on loan....

Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

Show me someone of Italian heritage that actually considers themselves a true American. Of course he wants to play for Italy.

Sorry, couldnt find anyone. Can I interest you in a Canadian who thinks he's English?
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

Quagliarella would be good for shirt sales at least... all those letters. I'm sure they have a few 'Q's around.
I don't think we'll get him though.
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

i think brown can stay .. you never know when you need a backup defender . richardson , i think he should be allowed to leave as it doesnt look like he'll ever make the first team regularly .
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

Wesley Brown is one of my favourite players and I think he is genuinely United through and through.Always dependable when called upon.He might make a mistake or two but its normal if you are not always in the first eleven.He was solid when Rio and Vidic was out of it though.Keep Brown,slag off Richardson.
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

What do you lot think about the Pique-Gudjohnsen reports? I really think its a no brainer and should be resolved as soon as Barca play their last game tonight.Gudjohnsen is class and he is proven in the Premiership.His experience and finishing skills are still top notch.Sir Alex were looking at him before he moved to Barca but it was easy for Guddy to chose Barca over United.He says he wants to come back and Pique says he wants to stay in Spain,simple.
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

always loved gudjohnsen.

he can hold up the ball well.

for 8million, its a good deal not too risky.
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

It could be good, though I've always seen him as a supporting striker - a bit like Rooney.
Maybe a loan deal would work - that way we can look at a few younger strikers for a bit longer, and Pique gets to stay in Spain for a while (as I can't see him breaking into the first team for another season or 2)
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

I didnt watch the match but apparently Nani scored a goal and was then injured.
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

Gudjohnsen is a class player, although I know his form hasnt been the best lately. He's been missing quite a few chances recently, although his overall football has remained at a very high standard.

Would be an excellent signing.
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

So basically, if anything happens between England and Portugal again, United will have to fold.
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

Not if Sir Alex is still around.
 
Re: Manchester United Thread - Champions 2006/07

We probably won't meet for a long time the way England are playing.
