I think the 94 cup final was great because it was such a microcosm of emotions. Dull and nervy first half followed by the whole 'penalty \o/ - Goal \o/ - \o/ PENALTY \o/ - \o/ GOAL \o/ - HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHEEEEEESSSSSSS' in 6 or 7 minutes. We went from parity to having the cup in the bag in such a short space of time.

Back when motson was a half decent commentator as well. Evoked the match atmosphere so much better.

'Oh he's given another one!'

Danny Simpson has joined Keanos revolution up in the NE. Loan til the end of the season.

Sunderland are literally turning into a Man Utd past and future side.

He's got a good chance of starting a large majority of the games. Whitehead has been playing RB, but is really a CM/MR. Sunderland also just sold Caldwell to Burnley so there should be plenty of chances at RB/CB.

So the fact that people don't rate Ruud as highly as you do, or are annoyed at him for being a lying, decietful gobsh*te means that they're also happy with Saha?

People have to automatically like Saha becuase they dislike Ruud? Is that the rule now?

The thing is, no disrespect to Portsmouth but the biggest fear I have in these sorts of games is what Fergie will do with the team. He's generally been better recently but there's always the chance that he'll shuffle the team about and play the likes of Richardson and O'Shea. We'll see I guess.

Cantona backs Man Utd for title

Eric Cantona

Cantona has been impressed with Cristiano Ronaldo

Manchester United legend Eric Cantona is certain the Old Trafford side will win the Premiership this season.

"For sure they will be champions," Cantona told the BBC's North West Tonight programme.

"It's a new era, a new generation. They have a great team but they have a lot to prove. They need to do it.

"United have been brave from the start and have a good atmosphere, where they work very well with young players like Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo."

Interview: Ex-Man Utd forward Eric Cantona

Cantona praised manager Sir Alex Ferguson for the rebuilding he has carried out at old Trafford and establishing a team to challenge for the title.

Ronaldo needed to have experience and score goals - now he has that and is a world-class player

Eric Cantona

"Ferguson is the kind of manager who can help the greatest player with a lot of experience and also help the young players," Cantona said.

"Not all managers can do that, but he can do that and find the balance on the pitch to have a strong team."

The 40-year-old Frenchman has also been impressed with the heir to his number seven shirt at United, Cristiano Ronaldo.

"He needed to have experience and to score goals - now he has that and is a world-class player," Cantona said.

He said he was not surprised the Old Trafford faithful had stood behind Ronaldo, despite the Portuguese winger's role in Wayne Rooney's sending off in the World Cup quarter-final against England.

"It can be difficult in another club than Manchester United," Cantona said.

"But the fans of United are very faithful and behind you, they are the best. He plays for United and is one of the members of the family." </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I don't believe everything the press says, but i'm familiar enough with it to be able to make an educated guess towards a situation.

Recent mentions of Eric, genuinely regarded as one of the top 3 players in United's history - 1

Recent mentions of Ruud, decent goalscorer who was probably a bit of a mercenary, acted like a spoilt child, was detrimental to our team as a whole and now taps up our current players - 3,726

any idea what squad number he'll take?

should do well for you, he's almost as highly-rated as Evans and one of our most promising young'uns. very very quick, good going forward and a pretty decent tackler.
