We won 7 out off 8 not long back (9 out off 10 if we count the 2 FA games), with the exception off Wet Sham which we completely dominated but it ended up 0-0, sometimes you thrash teams in general play yet still not win, it happens. 6 off our games are against the so called lesser sides, while they will make it tough, with our defence one break will be enough in most off them, despite our struggles against bus parkers, we rarely fail to score vs them. As for Anfield, i am convident Mou will outsmart Brendan for this one, Liverpool fans will point to their "amazing" atmosphere, but if we get our tactics right, keep concentration and take control, those muppets can scream as loud as they want, we will be leaving there with 3 points. 7/7 will be hard, but it is most certainly do-able.

Not much has been said about this but after moaning about the money at top clubs for years while at Everton, Moyes will probably be throwing over 100m (adding to the 65 spent already in his tenure) to get United back in the top 4. How funny would it be if he spunk's it up the wall Kenny style?

I think Luiz works well next to Matic, but doesn't look to good next to any one else. One injury to Matic and we are back with the same old CM problem, which is why imo we need another (i would say Witsel, but apparently him and Matic weren't that great as a partnership at Benfica).

15m would be great if we could fetch that amount for him. Matic, new signing, Lamps, Rami, MVG, Chalobah would be an awesome midfield next season.

They didn't mention the fact we did the exact same thing to them at home, funny that.

Not really a fan off that combo, and i still think a fresh Lamps with his game time managed correctly will produce the goods.

Luiz and Matic in the prem, Rami and Lamps in the CL.

This is what i said in the pre match thread for this game. ______________________________ They can't cope with being pressed high, even United done it with some degree off success a few weeks back. If we jump out off the blocks, play at 100mph and don't allow them to breath like we did to Liverpool, this could be over by halftime. ______________________________

I really hope he returns i really do, but as a coach or club ambassador, a prime Drogba is what this team is missing, not a 36 year old Drogba.

They can't cope with being pressed high, even United done it with some degree off success a few weeks back. If we jump out off the blocks, play at 100mph and don't allow them to breath like we did to Liverpool, this could be over by halftime.

What i hope is that if we can't get rid off him we do what we did with Malouda, or even better find a loan club that will pay half his wages. It will save us 5m, which could go towards the next Azi.

I still think Eto'o will get his fair share off game time, if we sign Costa and bring back Lukaku im guessing most weeks Costa will start with the other two on the bench. In some situations, where say the oppo are defending well and we need to be tactful to win the game Eto'o will come on, whereas if the oppo are commiting men forward and leaving a crazy amount off space in behind Lukaku will come on. Having Costa, Lukaku and Eto'o would give us great tactical flexibility aswell as the perfect mix of forwards, one in his prime, one young and upcoming and one who's been there and done it. Also after what Hazard has said about how Eto'o has helped him, it could only be good to have Samuel around helping Romelu.

Less is more.

and to think, i wanted Cole back in mid December.

Imagine if we got Eto'o in january 2011 instead, although he was 29 he would have done considerably more for this club than you know who.

2006 world cup year, Eto'o scores a 2nd round winner at Stamford Bridge, his team win league and CL. 2010 world cup year, Eto'o scores a 2nd round winner at Stamford Bridge, his team win league and CL. 2014 world cup year, Eto'o scores a 2nd round winner at Stamford Bridge ..............................

Have this, he is 4/1 joint favourite in ladbrokes to score first tonight, Drogba is 9/1.

What annoys me above everything else is his attitude. Walking down the tunnel, admitting to not caring about results, whining to the media after the CL final. How he has this perception as this sweet little hard worker is beyond comprehension.

I think he will sign for next season, it will be summer 2015 he will leave due to lack off playing time, if i had to guess.

Against Liverpool in the first half, we pressed them high, forced errors from their back line and they simply couldn't cope. The scoreline flattered Liverpool big time, we should have been out off sight by half time. What is your idea off parking the bus anyway? mine is when the whole team is behind the ball and punting it away when they get it and attacks coming and coming, it's what West Ham did to us and we did to Barca in 2012. What we did at OT and The Emirates is similar to the approach Fergie took in big away games for years. You don't believe me, watch back United's games at Eastlands in 10-11 and 11-12.

When has any one blamed him for those 2 seasons? As good as Mata was it doesn't change the fact we as a team unit were inconsistent at best and abysmal at worst in those 2 seasons, so when the reasoning to play him is "he was the best player in the last two seasons" then the fact he barely had any competition for that acolade will be brought up, it's not his fault its just fact. Also, when we hear he would have made such a difference on saturday, then it's only fair for the sake off a balanced argument to mention that he played when Villa in their lowest ebb under McLeish beat us 3-1 at Stamford Bridge.

He has been stepping up in the big games, need him to do likewise vs Gala and Le Arse.

For me the last straw was the 3-5 vs Arsenal and the COC 2-0 vs Liverpool 2 and a half years ago, i wanted him gone in January 2012.

He has a goal every 100 minutes this season doesn't he? If he got a solid run like Torres did in the first half off last season i think he would bring home the bacon, shame he won't even get back to back starts let alone anything more.

How about this for critism, he is an embarresment to this club. And how about this semi retired Eto'o >>> > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Torres BA > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Torres
