His biggest problem is that he's seen as a rival to belgium players spot in the team.well,on here anyway.Jose will put Chelsea' s glory first and let all Chelsea players compete for positions on equal terms.

Ozzie's brain is so fried he probably thinks that is Sharon with him at his grandma's house in dudley awaiting battenberg.

Arsenal fans are like those weird John's who just like to look or talk..they scared of any real penetration.

Not meant as trashtalk but I think without Fergie there to get every last drop out of the squad like Clough used to with Derby and forest. I think there needs to be quite alot of upgrading in the man u squad to challenge seriously for the EPL and ECL. imo there has n' t been a truly great English club team since 2008,when there were two of them in our clubs. It's just been survival of the fittest rather than classiest for me the last 5 years and Fergie managed to drag his team over the finishing line in a way that I've my doubts over moyes doing,at least in the near future.great job at Everton but different beast for him to control now.

I'd like to see him in the future manning the right flank together with Wallace.both players taking turns to attack and defend. Harassing Left sided players both with and without the ball.

If I was employed by stinky Leeds I'd take the piss too.horrible inbred mutants that they are.

this is what happens when they stop pickin' sprouts and reading tintin...

Jose has shown no desire to loan him out and I'm glad. Someone said earlier young players make mistakes,but in reality all players just like the humans they are make mistakes regardless of age.

I didn't bother to tune into any of the friendlies so far,they are just fitness and training sessions to me and if I run the club they would only be in Europe as that's the only environment our players need to learn to play in..I do recall many times in the past tho some players looking shit hot in pre-season then just plain shit when it mattered and vice versa. I trust in Jose,happy to leave these decisions to him and enjoy the summer relaxing myself.

Proof again that managers claims,especially in the transfer window should always be taken with a pinch of salt.if it's true that we have bid for him then Jose's words about it being Rooney or bust clearly wasn't meant the way many took it. A bit surprised we have gone for another CB tho..thought it would be De Rossi.

Seems like if a defender has good ball control he's automatically thought by some to be someone for our DM spot/s. When it's something that is also needed in our defenders.

Probably the greatest manager still working..personally I think he's the most talented coach we have ever had. His age is the only downside,but good if he went to coach any of our rivals.

So on one side we Don't want him because he's a cunt and the opposition counters with we have already got cunts playing for us we should get another. Jose has shown no indication we want him and in fact said it's Rooney or no one.so enjoy wasting your time commenting on this thread for the next 5 weeks or so.

injuries or ideally lack of them are my only concern with pre-season. player x having a better game than player Z.on a merchandise selling tour,means nothing to me.certainly no indicator of who is the better player.

Wasn't the case with Azpi,Ramires,De Bruyne,Shurrle,Ba,Van Ginkel,Luiz,Lukaku,Mata,Hazard,Cahill,Oscar etc... Edit: seems like The skipper already made my point for me.

I haven't bothered to tune in.(watching the ashes instead) as pre-season is pretty meaningless to me,just a fitness exercise etc... Is funny how some fans get giddy over it tho..hearing of kdb getting injured not so funny..

Reuben Loftus-Cheek out of the youth who aren't already in our first team squad yet and Nathaniel Chalobah.joint favourites. Out of our first team squad Oscar is the player I like to watch most regardless of age but he's under 22 anyway so I'll go with him.

Roman is coming over for his supper later,I'll ask him then..

I'm pretty sure like already noted,Jose was just talking about forwards. It's also worth noting Jose said 2-3 signings but we have already signed 3 and yet still we bid for Rooney. Nobody should take what managers say as something sworn under oath in court.

My guess,they are shopping him out for a loan but if nothing better comes up they'll use Vitesse as a fall back option,sometime closer to the window closing.

Jose is a smart guy.he didn't fall into the trap of getting into mind games with fergie,like Dalglish,Keegan,Wenger,Benitez..he knew it was best to share a bottle of wine with him,wine and dine and in the most part took the wins instead. He knows he can get into moyes' head and already it's begun. Good thing is that we are playing this within the rules. Rooney told Man U he wanted to leave before we showed our interest in him. At this point it looks like man u have found themselves in a situation they can't win...sell one of their best players to a rival or keep someone who wants to leave their club for a second time and someone who fell out with their new boss in the past and may have again already.

I liked the illuminous Green,Orange etc ones in the 80's ....it was like having hubba bubba feet..

I want to play some of you guys at poker.

Switch the 2-3 midfield to a 3-2. Oscar playing in the 3 but with the freedom to float between the two and therefore switching the formation depending on the in game situation. That's how you can play Mata,Hazard and Oscar in the same line up.

From the slaughtered lamb pub to a student bar in one evening.that's quite a rapid make over..
