Gerrards face is the best bit

[andy1967]

Sad news he really looked the business whenever ive seen him, contract disputes and an oversized ego the key here I think. Pogba has also been involved in dispute over his appearances and contract and I hope this is not now a growing trend with young footballers. The agents have got claws into them and we are seeing more and more young players demanding better contracts or simply turning their backs. Wellbeck for us just recently and truth in the article that Andy posted.
If Morrisons off the field antics and ego are the problem here then we need to say good riddance but such a shame and hope that he makes good of the talent he obviously possesses.

I havn't read anywhere if they have a buy back clause on the lad, different city might get rid of his cling on m8's and change the lad to a better player/man, I hope so.

D Gibsons goal tonight for Everton will be goal off the month on MUTV this month Nice to be joint top tonight.

We looked great against Liverpool despite the result and better again today 2 games in a row weve dominated over 65% possesion (Scholes?). Still lacked that edge tonight apart from Valencia and as you say with players on the return City are going to be in for a ~~~~ing tough run in to keep us at bay.
We should be dropping points in February as we have Chelsea,Bus Parkers and Spurs to play and if we can drag 5 points out of those games ill take that.

Well what can i say about last night we had 75% of possesion totally domanited the game, for me we still didn't create enough chances but we will get there as we have a hat full of players getting back to full fitness. i never thought i would be saying this this season but last night Scholes was man of the match!!
we should of had 4 pens last night!! Amos in goal his distribution when he did touch the ball(which was rear) was very good, I think onwards and upwards for UNITED now!! We did make stoke look very poor last night, Also did anyone see or hear SAF interview after the game?

I listen to it of 5live he was told, Darren Gibson helped you out last night with the only goal to beat city Fergie replied, "It was all part of the plan"!!

absolutely Class

Yes "all part of the plan" Brilliant he really is a cut above.

Very similar I thought to the game on Saturday, all the ball but lacked that cutting edge. It was only really Valencia looked like getting in and all though Stoke looked like they just crumpled under the weight of possesion it still took 2 penalties to make the breakthrough.
We have been handed a triple boost for the Chelsea tie as Rooney Nani and Young could take part so hopefully that lost edge will be given it's sharpness back. Rooney is easily our most potent forward and with Valencia and Nani coming at what will be an Ashley Cole free position (he got sent off) we should have some joy down the channels. Hopefully Nani makes it but if not then Young is not to shabby a player to have back.
sgerrard thought I meant "Owen" when I said we missed two of our best attacking threats, I wonder if he has ever watched Nani play

Yes yas Scholes has his mojo back and if he continues in this manner why not squease another season of magic from him. It must be said I am very biased to Scholes (I am huge fan) and if theres a player with a larger passing range then I have yet to see him.
On that note I think Utd has gotten it's mojo back also we have looked extremely dominant and are improving rapidly, I would also like to mention Carrick as he gets little to no applause but he has been in great form and should we get our hands on the title then he will have played a tremendously big part.

Onwards and upwards indeed

[steppenwolf]

Just voted on Man UTD pole for player of January. My top favorite is Valencia. No question about it.

And De Gea - what a waste (hope that will change)
Lindegoard is great goalkeeper and I would pick hims as no1.

[thered]

Watching game from last night its early days but i think lindegard may be no1 at the start of the season he looks just more composed and more in control than de gea

and on pre season so far he gets the nod from me i think we might see de gea eased in gently

fergie should listen to me stepps pre season 28th july 2011

[Shady]

hes signing "steps" in pre-season? now im a fan of their music but premier league is a lot different to top of the pops

Oh, Ravel | United Rant A good read.

Manchester United have cut Liverpool's ticket allocation for their upcoming Premier League encounter.

Last October, Liverpool cut United's ticket allocation from 3,015 to 1,965 and the Manchester club have responded by issuing a similar cut.


Liverpool supporters will only receive 2,100 tickets compared their normal 3,100 allocation. The Manchester club also only gave Liverpool 5,319 of their 6,400 allocation during the recent FA Cup match between the sides.


Liverpool officials have said the cut was due to United fans persistently standing and blocking aisles and gangways.



A United spokesman said safety was the reason for the reduction.

About time we did the same to you as you do to us!! Whenever away fan go to any ground they stand up all the way through the game... Thats how it works!! Will this effect you Zee??

[zee24]

Sir Alex has written to Manchester United's supporters to urge them to improve their behaviour at away matches or risk their ticket allocations being slashed.

Twelve Premier League clubs refused to give United their full allocation last season and the champions are concerned it is becoming a trend that is costing innocent supporters the chance to follow the club while also putting the team at a disadvantage.

Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City, Bolton Wanderers and Sunderland are among the Premier League clubs who have punished United, whereas Leeds United did the same as a precautionary measure ahead of their Carling Cup tie at Elland Road

If your fans improve their behaviour there won't be a problem.

And to your question yes it will effect me, I have more luck getting tickets for games at OT then Anfield when we play each other.
