player_65 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Is this summer going to finally wake up all the 'wait & see' brigade? The fact that we've made a profit on transfers (Ruud 10m, Mikel 6m, Spector 500k Blake 250k that I can think of against 14m for Carrick and the fact we aint signing TK until next year allowing his fee to paid from next summer's sales) this summer surely must make people realise we haven't got a pot to p*ss in. Or is everyone going to fall for the 'we tried to get...' rubbish once again. They've had 3 months and got **** all done, because we've got no money. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if the whole Hargreaves thing was a scheme put on with Bayern the fact we have allegedly such close ties with them. Make us think we're after players and make them look good for sticking to their guns. The loaning of Rossi another such move to get rid of wages, despite the fact he's probably on very little.

player_65 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Glenn Roeder has denied falling out with Sir Alex Ferguson over Giuseppe Rossi, with the Newcastle boss insisting the youngster can play alongside Obafemi Martins. The Magpies beat off stiff competition to secure Rossi on loan from Manchester United, but he has so far been restricted to a bit-part role on Tyneside. Red Devils chief Ferguson is eager for Rossi to secure regular playing time and reports suggest he is unhappy with developments at St James' Park. Roeder says Ferguson has not voiced any sort of frustration and expects Rossi to figure prominently for Newcastle. "Giuseppe Rossi has made a big impression at the club," Roeder told The Journal. "He's been here for a month and he's been on a few times. "He couldn't play in the European games, which I accept, and he couldn't be involved at Old Trafford. That leaves four games he could have been involved in and he played in a couple. "I'm sure that between now and when he returns to Manchester United on January 1 he will have had plenty of starts. He's made a good impression both as a player and a person." Roeder has been keen to utilise Shola Ameobi's height alongside big-money recruit Obafemi Martins, but the Magpies chief feels the diminutive pair can form a partnership. "I think we could pair the two of them (Rossi and Martins) together," Roeder added. "At home, where we are expected to make more of the running, it could work. "Giuseppe is such a good footballer in terms of dropping off to get hold of the ball and he knows what's going on around him. "Oba Martins could use his speed to make some clever runs and Giuseppe would be able to slide him in. "Physically, they wouldn't be a big partnership but there is definitely the potential for the two of them to play together." </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
snipersdream Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Richard Kurt in today's Examiner. <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Disjointed and non-United but it can win you trophies ONE of my favourite regular correspondents amongst the readers of this column remarked to me after the Benfica victory last week that my “momentary excitement and delusions of reaching the final may well have been dampened by last night, no?!†He was referring to the €200 bet I put on us to get to the final, in apparent contravention of all good sense and my own natural pessimism. Yet whilst it is true that the performance was grimly disjointed and, as Fergie himself admitted, somewhat ‘non-United’, such are the slightly shame-faced nights that win you trophies. After all, here we are, all but assured of qualification for the knockout stage — and simultaneously top of the league, despite several games in which we have been less than stellar, including what seemed like an epochal home defeat to Arsenal. That Gunner Stunner had us all conjuring up the nightmares of 1998 and 2002 when Arsenal, by winning at Old Trafford, marked their temporary dominion over us, in both cases resulting in Arsenal titles. Suddenly all that seems forgotten and the identity of the two heroes of Sunday are significant. Solskjaer, who I ought not need remind you is this club’s most loved player, scored his first home Premiership goals since April 5, 2003. Now then: a glorious flashback indeed. For that was during the magical spring spell that also saw Ole’s magisterial turn against Sunday’s opponents up at St James’, when United’s six goal dazzler put us en route to the most Devon Lochian title win in memory. Then again, also playing a blinder that day was John O’Pie, over whom we shall diplomatically draw a veil. These optimistic comparisons can only take us so far, it seems. The other hero of Sunday, Ronaldo, is rapidly making us content to sweep his summer stupidities under a convenient carpet. If only there was a third name to add to the roster of honour, namely Wayne Rooney. Most of last season I clung to the belief, repeated often here, that if United could have both Roo and Ron on form at the same time, nothing would stop us. Rooney duly delivered for much of the campaign but Ronaldo increasingly became a non-delivering enigma. Of course, now we know why: his eyes were wandering elsewhere, specifically horizons Iberian. Yes, he may be producing what turn out to be shop-window performances. So what? When the goods are coming through our door as frequently as this, we can live with it. How excruciating, though, that Rooney should be travailing through his own Valley of Forlorn at precisely this moment. Every ex-pro and barrack-room shrink has had his say on his slump, to little real enlightenment, and I am not going to pretend that I have anything special to impart, beyond making a couple of observations. One is that Old Trafford was once well-used to the phenomenon of world-class players going through lengthy lean spells. Just because, in recent years, our VERY best players have been the kinds of consistent Trojans who just don’t do slumps — Keane, Robson, Ince — we have forgotten that the Seventies and Sixties superstars were very susceptible indeed. Charlton was maddeningly inconsistent; Law would disappear for weeks on end; Best had legendary black-dog months. Rooney will be fine — if he is treated well. Eamon Dunphy, a figure to whom I would always defer in matters United and who knows more than most about dressing rooms in decline or conflict, has suggested that Rooney’s demeanour speaks of a fundamental problem within the club. By which, one assumes, he means more than just the usual Dunphy-prescribed disease of ‘lack-of-Keane-itis’. I don’t know if there is anything to his supposition, although one does hear more reports of dressing room aggro than one would expect, given that the old catalysts Roy and Ruud have left. According to my sources, one such bust-up allegedly took place between a midfielder and a defender in Lisbon, for example. Naturally, one will continue to **** a keen ear for any such rumblings but meanwhile one trusts Wayne will receive whatever he needs to get back on top. Special treatment such as the deserving Ronaldo received, who I am told was excused the team flight back from Lisbon last week so that he could hang out with compatriots there for an extra night. Old warhorses tut-tut at this kind of exceptionalism but Fergie has often been very good at this kind of thing. And any man who can get as much as he did out of a challenging case like Cantona is surely worth placing some trust in when it comes to handling Rooney. </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mika Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I guess he's just a manager who would rather win 1-0 than 5-4, which isn't what we like particularly. The one thing I worry about when Fergie goes is that our approach to buying players might change. It's funny that given my dislike for the English national team, I do like how Fergie has kept an English core to the team, and I think that helps us somehow, I'm not sure why but I think it's a good thing having a British core, while obviously buying foreign players when they fit into what SAF wants. It would be a shame if we got an Italian manager for instance who just signed a load of his countrymen who didn't know the league, I think it would hurt us. Not saying that I want us to do a Spurs and buy any English player that breathes, but I'd like us to keep the balance that we have now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 20-year-old is an integral part of Parma's fight against relegation from Serie A, and also spent three months before Christmas at Newcastle United. Rossi was quoted in the Oldham Chronicle as saying: “My contract with United does not expire until June 2010 and I expect to complete it." The striker has three goals to his name for Claudio Ranieri's side from nine appearances, and he is delighted with how his season has panned out. “It is important for young players to get their chance and I am getting my chance at Parma where I am turning out regularly and playing well," he said. “Going to Newcastle was also a good experience, though I didn’t play as much, but the important thing was that I learned a lot while there.†Rossi briefly returned to England last weekend, starting the Italian U21's pulsating 3-3 draw against England at Wembley. “Of course it was special to be here," he said. "Just by saying the name Wembley makes you have goose bumps. It was a great occasion and I think we put on a good show." </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Rossi.
