Both teams are very strong, Dan has the better goalkeeper, Cling Bak has the better back 4, Dan has the better midfield 4, very tight call in attack - Law & Hughes vs Ruud & Cantona, Cantona's magic being the tie-breaker for Cling Bak, overall very hard to separate the two teams

Could you imagine what Manchester United fans would feel about him if he did that today? People hate on Ronaldo for leaving for Real but that's nothing compared to Law's career choices. |

He gave ten years (or so) of service to the club, his best ones. Who cares where he played early on or in his twilight years? How bizarre, never thought I would find a United fan holding a grudge against Law. If anything, his goal against us makes him more of a legend. You could see it was pure instinct and he was absolutely devastated the second after he puts that in the net. |

I saw Eric play. To me he's the king. Might feel otherwise if I were Scottish. |

Not sure about the hypocrites thing. Law gave us his best years. I didn't like Cole or Schmeichel (in particular) playing for City but it wore off very quickly. It is very different if a player ditches you in his prime. I always hated Ronaldo's musing about only God knowing and all that but the way he conducted himself in not playing along with Real holding us to ransom made up for that. Now the two Argie Judas...  Tossers, can't stand the sight of them.

I think it's hypocritical to be mad a Ronaldo. He was great for us but his intentions when he came here where pretty clear. He always favored Spain and we got 80 fucking million pounds for him. Tevez I can't stand. Didn't like him whilst he was at the club either. Heinze. He didn't get any game time anymore. Got no beef with a player that wants to leave because he doesn't get to play regularly. Probably would have disliked him more had he gone to Liverpool. He gave us part of his best years as well. He peaked with us. I only expect players to be loyal if they play here a long time or are home grown. Why should I expect more from anyone else? Just look at Rooney. Came here at 19 and on his 7th season he wants to leave. Now if he wants to leave then I don't expect much better from other players. Sad when players like Evans then get stick for doing a job when his family moved to Manchester so a 10 year old Evans could play for United. When Giggs and Scholes quit we have him, Welbeck and Cleverley left. |

If we go by the OP in the draft thread, there is only the primary draft and the secondary draft ie no more adding of players after that.
However if you wish to amend the rule and allow both teams to take one player off our eliminated semi-final opponent, I am agreeable to it
