I just wish he does as well for them as he did for us, anyway he hasnt played for two years, hes never going to be the old Hargreaves again.
How many games will Hargreaves play for City?
- Thread starter Eyepopper
- Start date
He won the league and champions league with us, I really hope he doesn't do that well with them.
80% reckoning he'll play less than 10 games for them.
I'd be quite keen on him replicating his three years at United since that CL trophy, that's for sure.
If they are pushing for the title then he'll get his 10 games I would think. He'll start very few games, but I would guess if he's actually fit he'll get a dozen or so appearances; more if they have decent cup runs.
hope his banjo string snaps
Ouch. Nasty.
I hope his perm falls out
Turning up on the pitch once a year whilst his team mates win trophies without him? That's very possible
I'm going to enjoy someone welcoming him back into English football with a bone crunching tackle...that's all I'm going to say on the matter.
Too bad Keano retired years ago...cause he'd be an ideal candidate for the job.

the only reason citeh signed him is they want to spite us.... he only be a bench-warmer there.

Sorry. Just got back to the keyboard after a night out.
Could you please tell me your reaction to posters wishing injury to Heinze? I remember quite a few posts wishing him the worst.
Wishing injury on anyone is fecking pathetic IMO.
Besides, him being 100% fit and being ignored for a spot should be far more satisfying for anyone annoyed by the move.

Especially on Hargreaves, waste of a wish if you ask me.
There's a lot of games in the calender, so even if he's just a squad player, he could easily get 20+ games, if he's available for the FA Cup, CC, and games before or after the CL.
But I still couldn't get my brain to think that's going to happen, I picked 1-9 like everyone else. Interesting to see so many agree.
I wish him all the best as long as they don't beat us in a game or to the league, or god forbid the CL. He can lead them to finish 1 point behind us and lose to us in the CL final 10-9, with Hargreaves scoring 3 hat-tricks.
Then he can have the BPITW trophy and I won't even complain.

Exactly. We should have more class than other forums like RAWK. Injuries are a terrible thing for a sportsman and Hargreaves has suffered badly. I don't wish him any more pain but I hope he has a minimal impact in their squad.
I clicked 1-9 but as someone mentioned that's quite a gap from 0, I expect to see him about two or three times before he packs up completely.
fecking hell, what is wrong with some of you?! We take the piss out of RAWK for being classeless yet our very own are wishing injury on a player just because he's a City player now.
Grow up.
Grow up.
I hope he starts every game, surely if our reject is good enough to start every game for them, that says a lot about how good they are.
The same thing....It doesn't matter who it is. I don't know if I would have seen the posts at the time, but it doesn't make a difference. No place for it here. Put it any player you want, the result won't be any different.
I really don't understand what all of the bad sentiment toward him is about. It should be clear for any supporter to see that he will never play upto 20-30 games a season for any club as his knees are shot.
So its not like anybody has reason to behave like a jilted lover, I'd written him off as a United player at the beginning off last season so i'm actually glad his off our book as he would only otherwise take up space in the squad, my only real sadness is that we didn't bring in another combative type CM to replace him.
As for his City career, I wish him all the best with whatever he goes on to do in life as he gave as much as possible whilst here and fit, but sadly this is only leading one way for him and thats toward permanent retirement.
I would be hugely supprised if he was still a footballer come the beginning of next season.

Why haven't we banned some of the feckers who have wished Owen injuries?
Bump
Lasted 57 mins on his debut...

Approximately 9 times longer than he turned out for United in the whole of his last season at the club. Incredible.
So did SAF get it wrong, or more correctly the medical advisor team?
I have to admit to being not a little pissed off, what changed between the June, when he was not worth retaining in our squad on the cheap, & September when he can turnout for 57 mins? He could/should have been playing for us last night...

I said to myself that I wouldn't let it get to me but I have to admit that I'm a little sickened.
Scored and was MotM on his debut!!!...Good luck to him I say!
Hopefully he will get a 'proper' move to a Fulham/WBA type Club soon and get a few games in.

happy for him, but that was just a bit sickening to watch.
I know what you mean, I had sick swirling around my mouth.
I mean, I mean....how unlucky are we?
He's going to be fit as a fiddle for City isn't he?

Good for him, he deserves to catch a break. Hope he excels the whole season while the rest of his team plays stinkers.
So when's the next round of the CC?
It'll be the next time he has any chance of a game.

It is so hard to wish him well now he's staggered off to Citeh to enjoy his miraculous transformation into MOTM goalscorer! Why did he have to go there?
Oh well I'll join with pops in seeking solace that he only plays in the CC. Unless of course he continues this form through another game without breaking down...that would be interesting.

Surely the point is how come he is suddenly fit when he wasn't worth retaining in our squad 3 months ago?
Quite how he is feeling today or reacts to last nights match is another thing, though.
He'd claimed he was fit in the summer, but it was a risk. For us, for anyone. We can only judge after a few games on the bounce, otherwise what good would he have been to us?
Apart from that, what krazyrobus said. All the best to him, hope he does well and the rest of City stink the place out.

as long as he doesnt score against united, i wish him all the luck in the world, god knows he needs it at this stage.
He's probably finished on the Top level football.
Probably a championship club or overseas smaller nation , but first teamer in the EPL is too far fetched, even if he's miraculously cured, his touch, passing, instict are just not there anymore.
That's what 99% will probably ahppen, unless of course there are always room for the 1%

Why would his touch, passing and instinct not be there anymore...
That was probably his first and last appearance. They've got what they needed now - job done. The ex-United player played for them, and they got some publicity....woohoo
