I laugh every time I read the posts at redcafe. Go click on page 1 to 5 of the Mata thread, then click on page 75. Absolutely hilarious! As much as I wish they took points off City, it's still comforting to know that those glory hunting fuckwits are going through what we had to injure once upon a time.
Surprise surprise, big Didi wants a Chelsea return according to a few sites. Surely he can't be worse then what we have? I'd take him back and hand him a blank cheque.
I would like to see us just test the water in the first half. Control the midfield, wear them down for around 60 minutes then try to nick 1-2 away goals towards the end. Athletico did it away vs Milan and are now in a good position to go through. It won't be easy as we tend to struggle with aggressive teams this season.
Just having him back was good enough for me. Top of the table in February, that's classic Jose.. For all the new guys who haven't seen us lift the Premier league with Jose, strap yourselves in, it's gonna be a hell of a ride!
Welcome mate! Nice to see another Aussie. If you're looking for a cheaper option on the Jersey, try sportsdirect.co.uk I've used them for the last seasons and never been disappointed. kits are authentic too.
Well at least that gives us a week without journos having a wankfest over Mata and United. The more I'm on this earth, the more I realize how hated we are by the media. Manu have been the poster boys for English football for 30 years, one man will change that. In Moyes , we trust!
Like the great Ric Flair once said " To be the best, you gotta beat the best" if we don't beat city, we don't deserve the title. This game is probably going to be the game of the season.
Gosh it really is a case of "grass being greener" for some people here. If it was up to most, we'd have 40 first team players. Focus on supporting our boy's and not the dickheads that have gone.
Mata returning would mean one of two things. 1. Mourinho would have to admit he was wrong, which he isn't. 2. Mourinho has been sacked. which is highly unlikely.
If Mata couldn't beat city with us, what makes anybody think he'll beat them at United? City have 11 ball players, United have 2 decent strikers, 1 MF, a half decent keeper and 7 wastes of oxygen. Cunts like cleverly and smalling wouldn't even make our reserves.
