exactly!!!

we have to give him a chance. he was really good since he came on. 25 minutes is no yard stick but still, give the guy a chance.

juan and only???

who the hell is this traore guy? is he even our youth player? i mean when did we sign him? i read somewhere that we have taken him on this tour on a test run or something. but a nice player. piazon - is average at best. weird that jose is playing him thru the center because the guy looks absolutely lost. even on the wings (united carling cup), he was no good. definitely no place in the squad this year. josh - i believe if mvg is ready then so is josh. i mean he did more in 25 odd minutes than mvg/rambo/essien could do in their time on the pitch. he should get some playing time in the squad. today his performance showed that he thrives on the players around him. the chip pass to moses, the thru ball to moses and some great distribution were down to both the good runs being made off the ball and his own talent. another loan spell would be a waste. i would prefer him to stay here and be given playing time in coc n fa and some dead rubbers. schurrle and moses- love their workrate and runs off the ball. but these guys are too one-footed, especially schurlle. i mean even to pass the ball he sometimes brought the ball to his right foot and then passed it. lukaku- to go into the season with him as our no.1 striker and even expecting to win the PL would probably be too much. but he may still suprise us. he has his strengths and his weaknesses, just hope jose works the kinks out. hazard - looked weird. well who cares... he ll be back. kdb - TALENT. its just 2 matches but he is definitely as good or even better than oscar (i ll go with the latter). definitely more versatile than oscar. also if jose continues to play mata in the center of the 3, and if the option is between oscar and kdb to play on the wing, i ll definitely go with kdb. ba - tries hard but just does not have the x-factor. a couple of great shots but a couple of horrendous passes on to the wingers/fullbacks to lay off, specially one to cole. kalas - seemed to be high on something with his back-passing.also should have got his head to the free-kick which we conceded to. chalobah- good performance. not much to do. wallace - again its just on 2 matches, but defintely more ready than kalas. his crossing, over-laps and speed are wonderful. essien - is he really back??? he ran around all the time. won the ball a number of times. one really great block. good distribution. mvg- dint see him in the 1st half but some good passes in the 2nd. cole - how does he always make those off the line clearances. brilliant.

get in lukaku!!!! get in!!! so where are all the lukaku haters??? come on KRAKEN...

2 and a half years and 1 match, so u see why people want to give him time?

ba...

what was eva's reaction???

i like the teams... the 1st half is the proper 2nd string, carling cuppish team while the 2nd half is the main team.

lukaku's development cant be the PRIMARY concern of the club. with rooney we become the favourites to win the PL, put a challenge for CL.

get him!!! get him!!! get him!!!

mufassir.

yes!!!!!!!!!!!! barca will get totally fucked...

one good season does not mean he is as good as rooney. have we not learned anything from BA. he was phenomenol in newcastle but has barely been good for us. yilmaz will be a similar signing...

i think people need to get back to reality from all the fifa and FM. we have adopted a brilliant strategy to acquire rooney with mou openly speaking about in public and then even cech saying things about him. there is no way we could have got rooney if we simply had put in a deal. united would always have wanted a little more for him and in the end we would have had to pay OTT. but now that our interest is so obvious it is for rooney to decide what to do. he can force moyes' hand for the transfer which would save us many millions. also people are talking about falcao and cavani and blaming the board for it but paying 51 mil and 60 mil for these guys would have been insane and we did the right thing in not taking the easy way out. also even if we dont get rooney, PL is still very much up for grabs, its not a lost cause.

they are starting to look absolutely brilliant... great bench too...

any1 who has torres and higuain in the same team will have to do that.

honestly speaking i feel torres is as good as higuain, which means they both suck equally bad. atleast torres used to be world class but in no way can any1 justify 35mil for higuain. that is just bad business. also he exactly NOT what we NEED right now, in my opinion. we need some1 like rooney or even zlatan (absolute last resort). we need some1 who can be an aerial threat, a game changer, some1 who can take long shots and some1 who can soak the pressure. for me higuain has none of these qualities. i have seen him play in RM games and a bit for argentina and simply cant see how he is an upgrade from our current strike force or what exactly he brings to the table. also its so weird that a brazilian likes an argentinian footballer so much, whats up?

so if we sign higuain we ll probably sell BA. that means our strike force will be lukaku, torres and torres-2. better than signing higuain, we could just sell mata and hazard and close the damn shop.

what is up with mceachran??? is he injured??/

25-30 mil is just perfect... anything more we should drop it?

272 pages!!! hahaha

a couple of bad passes = ramires had a bad match a couple of bad passes = mvg started nervously but grew into the match. i mean why do we give ramires so much stick. he ran the whole bloody game and it was just a pre-season friendly. put in some good tackles. made some rambo-runs all thru the match. perfect rambo performance.

i seriously doubt he was ever a target for us. it is/was more of wishful thinking than any other thing that has DDR a transfer target for us.

mvg not at all impressive...
