Great lets spend £30m on one player.

Surely you'd wait for this scandal to be over before signing anything with them? He'd be great in England, I pray that if he's part of any Serie A firesale in the fallout of the scandals that he doesn't go to any of our rivals.

Of course that doesn't mean that we won't sign someone, but if we do it'll probably be a defender .

Pretty much everything about the game has been said in here apart from any praise for OGS. I thought that he was great today, chased the ball down from the front, his movement off the ball was superb and he just basically showed signs of his pre injury awesomeness. I was tempted to give him MOTM to be different, but I just can't bring myself to type it. MOTM: Ronaldo 2nd: OGS Come on a nice big win against the Geordies. </div></BLOCKQUOTE> the thing with Ole is that he's quite clearly lost a bit of pace with the injuries (and it shows on occasion when chasing balls put in behind the defence etc), but he wasn't the paciest anyway. his movement is still absolutely top notch - he's by far the cleverest forward we have in that sense - and his finishing is as good as ever, so he's a massive asset to have. he doesn't offer as much as Saha overall for obvious age/fitness-related reasons, but what a bonus he's been this season. re: the red card - thought it was the correct decision, and a fairly easy one to make. the tackle on Gaby was a yellow without question, and from where i was sat he pretty clearly tugs Rooney back, which is a mandatory yellow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick OGS20 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 From good old abu365. might interest some. i'd edit out the horrific use of ManYoo but, well, i cba: 0 - Goalless draws involving ManYoo. 1 - Games lost at Old Trafford. Against Arsenal in September, as if you need to ask. 2 - Average number of goals scored by ManYoo away from home in the Premiership. Chelsea's figure is 1.37. 3 - Players shortlisted for the PFA Player of the Year award. 4 - Goals scored by both John O'Shea and Nemanja Vidic. 5 - Games in which ManYoo have failed to score. One of those was against Southend in the Carling Cup. 6 - ManYoo goalscorers that came through the youth system at the club. Note; Gary Neville is one of the few players in the squad yet to score. 7 - Yellow cards picked up by both Vidic and Paul Scholes in the Premiership. 8 - Times ManYoo have scored four or more goals in all competitions. 9 - Goals conceded in the first halves of 33 Premiership matches. 10 - Players in top 50 of Actim Index ratings. Chelsea have only four. 11 - Premiership games played by Kieran Richardson. Six came as sub. 13 - Goals in ManYoo's last three games. 14 - Premiership points won from a losing position. 15 - Premiership goals set up by Ronaldo. Frank Lampard and Cesc Febregas are next on the Premiership list with 11. 16 - Premiership goals scored after the 75th minute. 17 - Goals scored at home in the Champions League. As opposed to three away from Old Trafford. 18 - Combined total of goals scored by Scholes and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, whose careers were in doubt last summer. 18.6 - Million pounds spent by Sir Alex last summer, all on Michael Carrick. 19 - ManYoo players on the scoresheet. 20 - Goals scored by Wayne Rooney in what has been, at times, a disappointing season. 21 - Goals scored by Cristiano Ronaldo in what has been, at times, a remarkable season. 22 - Players used in the Premiership. 77 - Goals scored in 33 Premiership matches. That's 20 goals more than Arsenal and 21 more than Chelsea. 114 - Goals scored in all competitions. 400 - Pounds given to Ronaldo by Sir Alex when he hit the 15-goal mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericcantona7 Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 hey if the worst comes to the worst and Chelsea beat Arsenal and us, it really shouldn't matter, West Ham only need a point to stay up anyway, can't see them going all out to beat us I wouldn't like to win it that way, but both teams will probably settle for a draw in the end.
