    Pedro Rodriguez

    welcome back, pedders. I knew that goal in the copa would wake him up. superb performance, and on the left as well!

    I've noticed that the players have gotten all smartened up this season. beards are almost wholly gone and even ramos' hair is under control.

    yes, but not for the reasons people are stating here. :p

    Daniel Alves

    I love dani, and he plays a very important role in our team, but it's not a role that cannot be replicated. IF he leaves (which he won't - he knows he's at the best club for him) then what we will miss most is his link-play with messi. that understanding is brilliant and something you cannot...

    Maxwell

    glorious goal. like maicon's, but better. he's such an underrated player, possibly even more than keita!

    Seydou Keita

    because we were away, and the energy, drive and experience he brings to the midfield was more important than ensuring jona the crab gets more game-time. now we've won this game, we can afford to start jona and t-bone at home in the 2nd leg.

    Javier Hernandez (Chicharito)

    brilliant move to make it a "couldn't miss" chance, though. he totally energised united after he came on. seriously impressive, this kid.

    the french are weird. that's how I explain france.

    busquets is not as intelligent a player as xabi. he will get there, with time (he's better than xabi was at 22), but he's not there yet and it's pretty silly to suggest that he is. you're priceless, ward. I'm a big fan of xabi, always have been, but the idea that he's more defensively...

    9 - Samuel Eto'o

    some parts of europe are massively backward about racism, ironically enough it's the countries that don't have a history of enslaving africans back in the day. I guess the close proximity slavery induces, over time, gets worn down into some kind of acceptance.

    intelligent in what way? offensively? coz that'd be xavi. defensively? mascherano. all-around? xavi again. he's probably top 5 all-around though. along with xavi, iniesta, cesc and essien. hm, I wonder why spain won the world cup? :D

    from what I can tell shakhtar are rotating their CB's.

    I dunno. it would all hinge on the 4, really. our back-court is solid enough to not make a twat of its self and to make shots when they get them - but as regards the front-court? dwight is a monster but I doubt he could guard bynum AND gasol. if bass has a breakout year, though, we could be in a...

    Javier Hernandez (Chicharito)

    that header was magnificent improvisation, and the second was a classic poacher's goal. to do that in your first season, away at stoke city, is doubly impressive. he's the real deal.

    Jack Wilshere

    there's a lot of young midfield quality for england to select from. this is really the first generation that's done all of their football training AFTER united won the treble - which was the point when england emerged from the heysel-imposed wilderness and caught up with the rest of europe. and...

    I'm confident we'd beat the heat, and that we'd match up well against the lakers and be competitive in the finals, it's the celtics and their monstrous front-court I'm worried about.

    Gareth Bale

    yeah I know about the interest payments. like I said; the money is there it just means restructuring the way they finance the debt for a year or somethin'. you gotta hate the glazers though. how can a club that makes 100m operating profit then run at a loss? what a crock.

    Jack Wilshere

    huddlestone's problem is a bit like carrick's: he can look far too timid on occasion. in the world cup warmup games he should have ousted carrick from the squad given how bad the united man was playing and the great form in which hudders ended the season. but he was just wank, non-existent, and...

    Gareth Bale

    well they're running at 100m operating profit a season. that shit is fucking absurd. they have the money, they have plenty of money, it just means delaying/refinancing debt payments.
