Young Jimlad Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Okay, so I’ve been out of action since prior to the West Ham game since I suffered quite a bad head injury playing 5-a-side (no need for sympathy since while you lot were busy enjoying the sight of us lifting the trophy I was out of my tree in A & E…) so I’ve just been catching up and here’s my two cents about what’s gone on recently, and its all bullet points since I’m not in good enough condition to write a tome about anything so some/all of you should be happy with that… - vs. West Ham: MOM – have to guess from the highlights but 1 & 2 seemed to be Rooney and Gabby. AFFG – wasn’t VDS IMO but the lacklustre pre-cup final-lets not get injured tackling of the defence in general but in the final seconds Wes Brown. - Never mind the defeat, CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - VDS still > Foster for me. - Richardson still out ASAP please. - End of season thread awards YAY!!! - wmarkgs about Carrick/Parker/Hargreaves. - Congrats to Nick on his long awaited employment. Long may it last. - FA Cup Final vs. Chelsea: MOM #1 Rooney, #2 Vidic. Honourable mention, Sir Paul Scholes. AFFG: Rio for losing Drogba even though there was a general lets all be slack at that moment inc Gabby giving Lampard too much space and Vidic generally looking out of position. Gutted but what can you do? Anyway, never mind. Why? CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Lets get signing The Harg out the way ASAP please. Can’t be bothered with it dragging on any longer. Finally, c’mon Milan, just diddle the Scouse something silly would you please? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cantonarv Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Also just looking at Alvaro Recoba he is out of contract at the end of the season. He's only 30 perhaps a cheeky bid for him?
