although i know what you mean, i'm not so sure about that. he's been pretty damn consistent this year, and arsenal are still nowhere near challenging for anything, really. i think his future depends on their summer buys, and if i was him i wouldn't be saying anything to anyone about next...

isn't that the point though? it needs to be watched/monitored and looked into, for his and the club's sake. it's also not about his last few games, or that he's losing pace in them, but about the bigger picture and his and the club's long term future, together. i'm not saying he can will or...

i think that's one of the biggest factors. if you weren't so successful* and he wasn't at the helm of most of it then there obviously wouldn't be either the constant games or the 'need' to play him all the time. *also, can anyone see your success (and thus more and more games) drying up...

this is the one thing that 'worries' me with messi. is there ever going to be anyone strong enough to stand up to him and tell him when he can or can't/should or shouldn't play? it seems to me that he plays when HE wants to play, and stays on the pitch if HE wants to, which is all good and...

agree 100%. as good as he is when he's 'on', giggs just doesn't have the metronomic level of performance as scholes has had over his career. he's also entirely different in so much as scholes is all thought opposed to giggs' instinct. the bad/unfortunate thing about instinct players is that...

he'll sign for united in the summer. #justsayin

old nick's skating boots stay in the cupboard. re bilbao, they were brilliant in both legs. both matches have been equal parts pleasure and embarrassment. as a pleasant aside, as a result of watching them last week, i've started using them on fifa and they've got me up 4 divisions in 4...

see, i always knew he'd suffer second season syndrome but improve again after that. how do we know which one of us is definitely right?

yep. he strikes me as a player who needs a run to maintain his level. it's a weird one though, cos for all money, last season looked like it was gonna be him and rooney for the forseeable future, but it's welbeck who's been the best partner for rooney this season. Jenks is spot on, we've looked...

no :lol: but collecting wingers has been a thing of ferguson's, so who knows. plus, maybe a hungry young winger might force a bit more consistency out of our current ones. and make it less likely that park will be seen as a viable option out there*. *regardless of the 'pluses' he brings

me too. he's been pretty good for us recently. not sure what happened with him really tbh, but i'm guessing that the season we had 15-20 different back fours did him no favours at all. there's also a school of thought that his injuring of stuart holden set him back a bit pyschologically...

don't be, they won't. and if they do, satan will skate to work the next day.

couldn't agree more. carrick's been our best/most consistent player this season. because, of all the above playing in the 09 ec final when he was injured set him back a LONG way in ferguson's eyes. he took far too long to (a) get his form back and (b) be trusted by ferguson again - no fault...

although nothing RM do/did surprises me Beast, i'm sure that the person who signed off on a contract that entitles adidas to none of the money from shirt sales, as well as what they pay you to be allowed to make the shirts must either be this guy , or he's been fired. are you sure that's true...

i think the shirt sales figures are irrelevant tbh Nándor, you have an agreement with adidas that will only get a fraction of money made from a shirt sale, as do all teams, and i'd imagine most income will be generated by the modern media-brand whoring/touring that all clubs do. i think Beast...

i noticed your in thread confirmation of diegomessi being a mild stimulus behind the multi-post-merge thing. ta. hope you're well and your team's ready to beat Real in the semi's for us next year. a final between us and yourselves would make perez either implode or spontaneously combust, i think. :D

i did read that, but even for perez that'd be a remarkable achievement for one game a season. :lol:

no point when their average is only 73000 i saw that and thought they'd picked the only barca fan in madrid!! :eek: especially the ladies? graham hunter said that RM expect him and Ribery to start messing about their clubs and trying to get themselves sold so that they don't have to pay those...

now now, we'll have none of that. mostly because we liked his work ethic, but...... given that he wasn't prepared to talk his 'owner' into loosening his demands so he could play for us, which he could've done if he wanted, AND he's acted like a proper twat recently, (i won't be peppering my...

do you only know Master of Puppets? again with the lyrical malfunction :wacko: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- and Beast, most clubs seem to suffer the old 'returning player scores against you' scenario from time to time, but it...
