Had a fucking whale of a time on Facebook last night winding every United twat up.

This is the reason.

Ki had joined Swansea side last summer and this season he was loaned out to Sunderland for one full season.

Ki feels that he is considered to be playing an important part to get Sunderland going based on Poyet's firm support towards him.

However, Swansea is struggling unlike the last season, as they struggle to organise the team spirit as one, and due to unexpected late injuries of their first team players.

Young-Oak Ki(Ki's dad) who is in charge of Korean football association of Gwangju city.

reveals that Laudrup has mistakenly abandoned Ki for ridiculous speculations of his own.

"Many think that Laudrup is the one who sent Ki away to Sunderland, but it is definitely not the case" says Young-Oak Ki

"The contract made by both Ki and Swansea includes a clause that the player will be guaranteed to play the least 20 games as a starter which Ki himself wanted and included."

"The Chelsea game was his 20th game playing as a starter, and this is the game he resulted in heavy injury on his thigh. Ki told Laudrup that he would like to treat his injury in the Korean National Medical Centre as he precisely judged the facilities there are much better than those in the club medical centre."

"Ki added that he is convinced that the medical system would help him recover more efficiently as the national football team doctor of South Korea advised him that way."

"However, Laudrup mistakenly believed that Ki was trying to make a lame excuse after his 20th game of him being starter so as to slack off as much as he can. That inconsiderate thought of Laudrup led him to disliking Ki."

"Laudrup then approved Ki of his suggestion and let him go get treated in Korea.

And Ki believed Laudrup fully understood what he told him and took it to his heart with gratitude"

"When Ki came back, Laudrup brought in new players at his position and started ignoring him and excluding him from game to game. and this continued for a while."

"Ki realised something was wrong, and he asked Laudrup why he can't play as a regular starter. Laudrup said to Ki that he isn't trustworthy as a professional footballer and avoided Ki in any direct conversations."

"When Swansea tested out players' stamina, Ki was rated the 4th of the whole first team squad, yet Laudrup kept making excuses that he is not fully ready or Ki has to win his position by sheer competition."

"Ki outran those competitors in the training yet, Laudrup didn't give him a glance."

"The reason why Swansea didn't get Ki back was due to Laudrup's own objection toward the plan, yet the club unlike Laudrup, wants to keep Ki in a long run."

"Swansea offered an extension in Ki's contract with better clauses but Ki was obviously worried about Laudrup's dislike of him. So Ki is being cautious" - See more at: http://www.fansnetwork.co.uk/football/swanseacity/forum/100456/%E2%98%85the-truth-about-laudrup-vs-ki-revealed!%E2%98%85/#70

Quite stupid from Laudrup.

With Michu injured, they have no one to make actions in the final third.

Landrup is leaving Swansea anyways this summer, so it really doesnt matter.

THe board knew this, so they loaned out Ki short term to eventually bring him back with the new manager.

It really is an emergency at Old Trafford! Drunk man calls 999... to demand chat with Sir Alex after Sunderland humiliation

By Jack Gaughan

Greater Manchester Police have advised Manchester United supporters not to ring 999 if they want to speak to Sir Alex Ferguson after a drunk supporter did just that.

The inebriated fan had called the emergency number in the immediate aftermath of the Capital One Cup semi-final defeat on penalties by Sunderland and demanded to have a chat with Ferguson about the team's fortunes.

That caused the police to issue their peculiar and humourous message, shown below.

An interview with Roberto Martinez in Daily Mail. Quite an interesting read that.

Whoever wins this year´s PL title, I do not know now. However, one thing I would like to post here.

The goons are not the ones that should win it, I feel.

If Citeh wins it, I can live with it.

Can you imagine if Arsenal wins it ? We won´t see the end of it for months. This team of the cheapest skunks MUST NOT WIN IT!

The baggy coat will drivel about it for years, then.

If Arsenal survive February and March...they might have a chance of winning the title

However, I'm expecting them to drop points..particularly against Liverpool, us & City.
