Absolutely not.
A thousand times this.if you take someone like Tevez, it shows there really are no morals left in football.
who next? Suarez?
Oh he's a good player....
that shouldn't be all it's about
Yep.Nope.
Quite the overreaction to that sign, at the time and even now. It was a response to a Ferguson line and it was a fair tongue-in-cheek rebuttal.No thanks
Look how happy he is ffs.
You make it sound likes they're criminals.if you take someone like Tevez, it shows there really are no morals left in football.
who next? Suarez?

Great you take it so lightly.Yes. He's not dead and the sign doesn't say "I hope Fergie dies" or anything.
Former player holding up a mock tombstone for our 70 year old manager? Oh, hilarious that. On the contrary to what you've said I'm absolute baffled by anyone who thinks that's alright.Quite the overreaction to that sign, at the time and even now. It was a response to a Ferguson line and it was a fair tongue-in-cheek rebuttal.
Some of you kiss Ferguson's ass to such an extreme level it's unhealthy.
As for signing him? He's still better than Rooney for a start, so it wouldn't be the worst option.
Wov.Some of you kiss Ferguson's ass to such an extreme level it's unhealthy.
You'd choose not to sign Suarez if it was up to you?A thousand times this.
Good god yes.You'd choose not to sign Suarez if it was up to you?
Would it be the racism or the biting that'd swing it for you?Good god yes.
Some things matter more than how good a player is.
The fact there's a choice speaks volumes about the guy.Would it be the racism or the biting that'd swing it for you?
I'm with you on this. He's a quality player, no doubt, but there's just too much baggage. I wouldn't have him for that business with Paddy alone.Good god yes.

Take your pick either one should rule player out from ever playing for us.Would it be the racism or the biting that'd swing it for you?
He's still one of the best strikers in the game. Proven in Prem and in great form at the moment. Yes of course we should take him if the price is right. People tend to be overly sentimental these days, like some going against the idea of buying Ronaldo back.
He's a right cnut, thick cnut to be absolutely exact, but he's a team player and won't disrupt the team, on the contrary he'll be useful to what we've got in attack. He's a mercenary and doesn't have to like our club legends or become one. If he is a pro and does his job I'm ok with that.
This is interesting. Don't think I've seen someone include a goalie in their formation before!Nope.
That said, I wouldn't sign Tevez. Firstly, on principle. He can feck off with the RIP Fergie poster. Forget the context, no-one disrespects the great man.
Secondly, we need an injection of youth. Even if the offensive quality suffers for a season or even two, having a clear long term option at the striker position to develop is preferable to adding another 30+ year old who might decline sharpish.
Also, he he might be too short as a striker for Van Gaal's 1-4-3-3 and probably wouldn't want to play out wide.
In the last 2 years I haven't seen any problems that he has caused at Juve. When on the pitch he has always been a team player, his row with Fergie was another matter.
To be fair you never specified in the last two years....Disappearing off on a several month golfing holiday/Toddler tantrum whilst his side is struggling in Europe and involved in a title challenge is about as far from being a team player as its possible to be.In the last 2 years I haven't seen any problems that he has caused at Juve. When on the pitch he has always been a team player, his row with Fergie was another matter.
Technically you're right, as long as you mean literally on the pitch... as opposed to a couple of meters off the pitch, in a tracksuit, refusing to come on as a sub.When on the pitch he has always been a team player.
Why would you want to do that? Can't see what interest is left after that.I usually try to keep tribalism and emotion out of my football opinions.
What about his row with Mancini? The fact is you can't trust him cause he's a little shit.In the last 2 years I haven't seen any problems that he has caused at Juve. When on the pitch he has always been a team player, his row with Fergie was another matter.
