  1. Why is Giggs being continually mentioned as a potential manager of United?

    An interim dream team coaching staff of becks, scholesy, gazza and phizza with giggs as manager? Though we'd probably lose all our remaining games this season.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Shinji Kagawa

    Will probably get shot down for this (so why am i suggesting it?), as it may not get the most out of Rooney. But i think this might fix our current, most pressing problems, which is creativity and a sub-standard midfield, in the short run at least. Not my original idea of course as i've seen...
  3. The Most Annoying Footballing Phrase

    "thats a schoolboy error!" - well no, because you see it often enough at professional level... "either side of the post and thats a goal" - er...if it was on the outer side it would be a goal kick "hes a future england captain, surely" - whenever someone has a physique and throws himself about...
  4. Carragher to Retire

    To be fair, keano's autobiography didn't paint him as an angel either. But hmm...the fact that carra even contemplated going ahead to thump neill, and the fact that he has such thug friends in the first place, i don't know. But then, hard to judge, must have been angry to have your leg...
  5. Javier Zanetti

    Those quads are seriously scary looking.
  6. Anderson

    Maybe its time to accept anderson for what he is, a player who can drive us forward with a fresh injection of energy and pace, and has moment of brilliance, but also ones whos weaknesses are his fitness, stamina and inconsistency. We forgive a lot of players for a lot of things, for example...
  7. Robin van Persie | 2012-14 Performances

    Can't believe that people are claiming he's in Ronaldo's league already, especially for impact for us. Look, i love the guy, but short memories here, Ronaldo was bloody brilliant for us, and at least for 2-3 seasons he was scoring important goals, goals from nowhere from 30 yards, almost...
  8. Sir Ryan Giggs

    True that, he was good in CM, but yes that was at 36. He did boss some games but even then he wasn't the midfield general capable of making that position his own. As another poster said, its irrelevant any way since he cannot perform there any more. My issue though, is that i feel he still...
  9. Sir Ryan Giggs

    I really don't have a clue why fergie has played giggs in central midfield over the last couple of years. He is not and was never was great at CM. Sure, there were a few games where he played brilliantly there, but that was in his early thirties and only as a stop gap measure now his legs are...

    Man Unitahd Quality?
  11. Mancini: "City are much better than United"

    I can't read mancini at times...his "i'm so depressed, United have won the title" act last season somehow seemed to galvanise his team into stealing it. I can't tell sometimes if he is genuinely humble or has some sort of hidden agenda behind the words or that poker face of his.
  12. And you thought Rooney's 1st went in slowly!

    Well, i stand corrected then...i don't know, something about that goal just seems too utterly ridiculous to be given, especially in a penalty shoot out scenario
  13. And you thought Rooney's 1st went in slowly!

    Erm...correct me if i'm wrong, but if its a penalty shoot out and not one in normal play, then only the first "sequence" counts, ie, the moment the ball had hit the bar and stayed out then it wouldn't have counted as being in. So really, that the ball went in after is irrelevant, the penalty...
  14. Eden Hazard

    Eh? Regardless of what other countries commentators do, surely we should respect the origins of the player and try as best possible to pronounce it close to what it should be... By your logic, our commentators should have been calling out Larry White (Blanc), Ferdinand Bull (Torres), Robert...
  15. RAWK Goes Into Meltdown (2012/2013)

    Well yeah, but they've played city, arsenal and sunderland away. 2 points out of those fixtures isn't necessarily bad. They'll go on a decent run after the united game.
