Imo, if Ronaldo gets the blame for this shamble, I won't know where to stand. Ronaldo didn't show his most sympathetic side in the "incident", but FFS! its the friggin of the quarter finals of the World Cup. I've seen players from every corner of the world do much worse. Tbf, worse incidents occur almost dayly in the premier league. IMO, if someone's to blame, it must be the referee. Rooney didn't do do anything wrong (a yellow card at worst for the shove on Ronaldo), Ronaldo complained at what he saw as wrongful refereeing from the rerferee... France were good. But still... I friggin hope that French (thegay****ingBASTARDS) are left without a fcucking clue. Except that england won almost.... every match icon_razz.gif

tbh looking at 2 CM's for this season, what player would you take aswell as a gattuso/vieira-esque ball winner? especially seeing as the likliness of an english pirlo-esque midfielder (carrick) having a 20m price tag?

are there other pirlo-esque options? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Not partically a deep lying play maker but lets sign roman. icon_cool.gif

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> Liam Miller looks set to leave Manchester United with the club willing to listen to offers for the Irishman.

The 25-year-old has failed to establish himself at Old Trafford since arriving from Celtic in 2004.

The attacking midfielder struggled to break into Sir Alex Ferguson's first team plans and found himself frustrated on the sidelines.

Miller spent the second half of last season on loan at Leeds and helped them reach the play-off final only to lose to Watford.

The Republic of Ireland international has been informed he does not figure in Ferguson's plans and that they will let him leave for the right offer.

The player's agent Eamon McLoughlin confirmed United were willing to let Miller move on.

"I believe the manager Sir Alex Ferguson has said that they will listen to offers for Liam," McLoughlin told skysports.com.

"He has been there for two years without getting much of a look in and I think Liam knows he must move on."

Sheffield United and Leeds have both been linked with Miller and McLoughlin admitted there has been some interest in the midfielder.

"There has been some interest in Liam, but we will wait and see what happens," added McLoughlin. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

panic striker buying > long term plan

Fergie will not panic buy - you're stuck with the "four class ones"

Toni would be a good option. Problem with him and Villa is not cheap, but would be decent for long term

Trezeguet loan ? I dont like him at all !

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> Reds team up with Betfred

Manchester United has today announced the introduction of a new partner to their family of sponsors.

Fred Done and his company Betfred, the World’s biggest independent bookmaker, have become United’s official bookmaking and online gaming partner in a multi-million pound deal. Commenting on the association with his beloved Reds, Betfred boss Fred Done said:

“This is a dream come true. I’ve been a season ticket holder at United for 45 years and the opportunity to be an official partner was a deal I could not pass up. I’m a mad Red and have the utmost respect for Sir Alex."

Fred added: “This deal is about associating ourselves with the world’s best. United are the World’s biggest football club. We have some great ideas and lots to offer United fans and if I don’t know what they want who will?â€

The Betfred deal will see all the betting kiosks in the stadium and corporate areas re-branded. A co-branded Betfred / Manchester United website will be offering exclusive Betfred gaming including poker, casino and traditional betting.

Betfred will also be creating fans’ events during the 3 years’ association and linking up with MUTV with gaming specials for viewers.

United’s chief executive David Gill says: "Betfred is a growing worldwide brand and is one of the most respected of all UK bookmakers. Fred’s business acumen together with his love for the club can only be good for our fans and our business."

United fans had their first opportunity to take on Fred and Betfred at Old Trafford before the Sevilla match.

I'm not remotely giddy about Chelsea, changes nothing, it's a better result than they got there last year.

I'm just happy that we've made a good start, are playing exciting, attacking football, and the legend that is Ole has scored such a special goal.

Right now that's as much as any of us can ask for and so long as we keep up with the attacking, flowing football then I'm happy. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

yeah tbf thats probably my true giddiness reason

Good win today, too many team changes i reckon to continue with the fluent football. Again strange, strange decisions by ferguson to drop evra and then to play two ball playing midfielders in the middle against a recently promoted side who are going to scrap and battle for the game. Seems odd to me. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

in hindsight, dropping evra the correct move really, despite silvestre's utter clownshoeness icon_biggrin.gif. and he didn't really have a lot of options for the middle after deciding on shifting o'shea into the backline tbf.

Okay, just seen the highlights after avoiding the score at work, didn't look as though Everton were up to much (thank goodness), pretty damn funny reading through the reaction on here to having pretty much all our defenders on the pitch at the same time bar Viddy, hopefully all our minor injuries clear up ASAP. So based on highlights...

MOM: Evra - goal and assist, what more can you ask for from our current #1 LB.

2ND: Rio - if only because of the plaudits on here and the highlights showing him well in control of Beattie a couple of times and putting in a saving tackle prior to having a go a VDS for not coming out and claiming the ball.

& in case it wasn't registered from the Chelsea game:

MOM: Carrick

2ND: Ronaldo

We were qg last night tbh.

SO many good performances, all over the park. Giggsy, Carrick, Ronnie, Smudger, all immense. But I am quite prepared to bow down at the alter of Darren Fletcher and snaffle up some pie of the humble variety, because he was EVERYWHERE last night. Best I've seen him in 3 years. wp son.

Loved the fact that ALL the goals were cracking as well. Nearly shot my load when Smith's went in, oozed class.

Little annoyed at Rio for an unneccessary yellow card. Who's on them now - Ronnie, Heinze, Rio, Smudge is it? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Rio and Smudge only have one, it's three for a suspension isn't it? Evra is one away from suspension too.
