VDS and Vidic = Awesome, Vidic one of my favourite Premiership player's already - mainly because some idiotic TIMES (yes, the TIMES) journalist came him 4/10 when you beat Arsenal 2-0 at home. Why? Why? Why?

Park = Promising

Evra = Just Wierd.

You mean Senna? afaik he was found to have small traces of a drug which helps combat asthma - we're hardly talking Ben Johnson here.

Funny how pretty much every sportsman who ever tested positive for something performance enhancing either didn't know a thing about it, was spiked, or 'accidentally' took it in an over the counter medicine, isn't it?

like ive said many times before, its nothing to do with any off the field apparent personality traits

its the plain and simple fact he is UTTER UTTER FOOTBALLING TRIPE .. and scoring a jammy goal like today is easily enough to make Fergie think picking him in the team more often is a good idea.

from today's Guardian

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">David Beckham has given his strongest hint yet that he would be prepared to bury the hatchet with Sir Alex Ferguson, opening up the possibility of a return to Old Trafford in the summer should Manchester United want him. Beckham's contract expires on June 30, 2007, when he will become available on a free transfer, aged 32.

While Real Madrid's president, Ramón Calderón, has insisted on numerous occasions that Beckham is close to signing a new deal, it is extremely unlikely that there will be any agreement before January 1, when Beckham will officially be free to talk to other clubs.

Despite Beckham's public declarations of commitment to Real Madrid, formal negotiations over a new deal simply never took place over two years of false starts and institutional chaos at Real Madrid. When talks did finally begin this month, it became clear that an important financial gap separated the two camps. Beckham has now started only one of the last six games and last weekend admitted he was growing frustrated at the Bernabéu.

"I love playing football and if I don't do that, I can't be happy," Beckham said. "I feel frustrated as a footballer. I go over it again and again and can't find an explanation. It's really hard when I don't play and I feel sad every day. My future doesn't depend on [Fabio] Capello but if he says I am not going to play, then that's different."

With Capello privately insisting that he sees Beckham as no more than a sqaud player, the Englishman's departure looks more likely than ever. The question now is where he could go. Ferguson's continued presence at Old Trafford has always been considered the greatest impediment to Beckham making a return to United.

In his autobiography, Beckham blames Ferguson for his departure in 2003, describing the Scot's bitter reaction to a missed free-kick against Real Madrid in the spring of that year as the moment he realised that he had to leave.

"His face told me everything I needed to know," Beckham wrote. "It's over. He wants me out." Now, though, he has admitted: "Perhaps [Ferguson] didn't want me to leave - and I don't believe that he would have wished me to have had no success. I have known Ferguson since I was 12 years old and we have only had one or two problems in all that time."

Beckham has also praised Ferguson's coaching style, insisting that Madrid can succeed with Capello precisely because of his similarities to the Scot. "I like Capello because he is the coach who is most like Ferguson," he said. "He is strict in training, in the team hotel in the preparation for matches, in everything. That is how I like things to be."

And, with three trophyless seasons at Real Madrid contrasting with his time at United, the former England captain has even explained away the infamous flying boot incident as an unfortunate accident and praised the Old Trafford atmosphere created by his former manager.

"[The flying boot] was an accident after a bad game against Arsenal. It just was a gesture of frustration from the coach," Beckham said.

"It's difficult to explain the lack of success [at Madrid] but sometimes if you are not a team then it is difficult. I was at Manchester United for 15 years and every day, in every game, every season we were a team. We won together and we lost together."

Beckham added: "Going out to eat together is very important and we don't do it enough at Madrid. At United we used to go out together every fortnight - all the players eating together, even including Ferguson and all the coaching staff sometimes. But here it is different. In the three years I have been here we have only done it four times."

Did you really think that KR might make an impression this season Jimlad? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I know this was yesterday and it detracts from the whole "who is the new foobr?" debate (which clearly deserves a thread of its own) but I've not been online since, and the answer is that I really though he might really buck up his ideas and show some quality this season. So far I've clearly been shown to be massively wrong in that (mostly hopeful) assessment!

Anyway on to other things, I was watching the CL highlights this morning and a few other potentail targets were jogged back into focus:

Dan De Rossi from Roma - no introduction needed but he's a tough nut CM & has a hell of a shot.

Nery Alberto Castillo from Olympiacos - Left winger, beyond rapid and pretty skillful from what I've seen. Also has about four nationalities so thats a comedy tug of war in itself.

Aruna Kone - Striker at PSV, always looked as though he has potential to be very good when I've seen him.

Anyway, just another couple of names into the mix...

Jesus, stand up and support your team, worst song ever. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Who sang that? didnt hear villa fans sing that, they sang something about support your local club.

Anyway neither team deserved to win in my opinion and it looked like a nailed on draw until Ole did what noone else is capable of comes off the bench and rescues us.

Henke looked a class apart although he wasnt helped at all by a Rooney that is in clear need of a rest, honestly if Ole was fit enough why didnt Ferguson rest Rooney and play Ole in the first place? Ah well at least we through, Blackburn or Bolton away in next round please.

MoM: Henke

2nd: Evra
