Always thought Kleb could've been amazy. Stupid bloody shoulder. Still can't recall a game when he was actually bad, just always crocked and struggling to get into an awesome midfield. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Welcome aboard the "Kleberson wasn't as bad as everyone made out" bandwagon

I was actually surprised when he left considering the part he had played pre-season & the fact he was actually looking the part. Scored a couple of goals too.

But yeah my post wasn't entirely serious. There have been much more shocking departures than Kleberson... Djemba x2 for a start

Me. I cba with college so I am doing a plumbing apprentership, I will be on like £100 a week.

My Dad will pay for the £627, but I'll have to give him £33 for each home game. A third of my weeks wage to watch United, ffs.

I'll want to do a lot of aways next season too.

next up - taxes

[JulesMUFC]

taxes afs.

Watching that 3 on 3 nike advert I reckon united would so win a 3 on 3 tournament against all the clubs, we would be so .

Ronaldo, Rooney, Anderson. Or Nani/Giggs/Evra. Id probably wouldnt put Vidic inside a steal cage, no one would come out alive.

[Nathan mufc fan]

Just read this article on Queiroz's role in the club.

I don't like his quote about Rooney, Ronaldo, Anderson and Nani being our forward line for 10 years. He doesn't mention Rossi, so i think he's going to leave :*******(.

[!Return of the Geordie One]

Can anyone give me a link to the radio phone in with the Man City fan saying their are bigger than Juventus?

Thought someone in here would have it bookmarked.

[Nathan mufc fan]

Anyone just hear that on SSN?

Berbs practically licked our teams arse saying how we play great football, and he love to play with Rooney, Ronaldo, Scholes etc.

[Nick OGS20]

Fergie's said Jonny Evans is staying with us next season apparently. pretty much guarantees one of the 'senior' defenders is going.

Evans will essentially replace Gaby, still a decent chance Pique will replace Silvestre. and if we don't sign a striker then Rossi will definitely be back.

be harder now that martin refuses to get any one any tickets

[Razor Eddie]

And Martin wasn't my main source.

But, yeah, you're right. ST ftw. \o/

[Nick OGS20]

my confirmation email says our ST's will be sent out in June. i'll eat mine if it's with me that quickly, was August by the time we got them last year.

[JulesMUFC]

I'd like to think fergie would allow two of the senior defenders to go to allow Evans and Pique to make the step up, if silv and gabby to go then we are left with:

gaz, wes, rio, sheasy, vida, evra as senior experienced players and evans and pique as fill ins.

Quite like the look of that tbf.

an xi next season of: big ben, pique, evans, vida, evra, carrick, fletcher, ronaldo, rooney, nani, anderson with an average age of about 13 would be qg

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Dimitar, this is the third year in which we meet during the spring; last year, you were excited about the start of your first season in Tottenham Hotspur, it seems now that you are about to join Man Utd.

Now I am thinking about the return match against Belarus and after that I'll have a rest. After that we'll see...

Still, are you close to United?

Yes, in fact I am. They are now on the TV and I am very close to it. That's how close I am to them.

Do you want to play in Man Utd?

I am a happy man in Tottenham. The club gives me everything I need to feel nice with them, and I actually do. As to United, of course I like Sir Alex's team. Their style is attacking and pleasant to watch, and it coincides with my own style of playing football. Giggs, Scholes and Rooney are fantastic players and that fast guy Cristiano Ronaldo on the right side is a magician with the ball, he plays football from another planet. Of course, it would be a pleasure for me to play with these guys; they simply know how to have fun on the pitch.

Have you been contacted by Ferguson already?

No, I haven't.

When will you be able to name yourself a United player?

I think I answered this question already. I'm a happy man in my present club.

How did you adapt to the your new team Tottenham Hotspur?

I was warmly welcomed the guys accepted me as one of them from the first. I haven't felt isolated from the team even for a second. In the changing room at our stadium we have a sign which says: "There are no stars in Tottenham, the team is the big star." And this is what the atmosphere in the team is - we support and trust each other.

Has fame changed you?

I don't think so. Yeah, I like being famous, it's nice, but I haven't changed much.

Let's come home for a while. Do you think we'll qualify for Euro'08?

I believe we will. We have our chances, all we need is a little luck.

Has the atmosphere in the team changed since Stoichkov walked out and Stoilov came in?

The atmosphere is good, but it was good during Stoichkov's time as well. You see, now the coach is playing cards with the players... they are laughing, we groove together. My impressions of Stoilov are that he knows how to break the monotony of the training sessions. Obviously, he gained some good experience in the Champions League.

What were Stoichkov's mistakes?

I can't comment on his mistakes. He knows what he did wrong. Maybe he made too many enemies too fast and they turned him as black as sin. This reflected on the climate in the team. I can only say that Stoichkov treated the players well.

Can you surpass him as a player?

Hardly anybody will ever surpass Stoichkov on the pitch. He is the only Bulgarian who won European Champion Clubs' Cup with FC Barcelona, the Golden Ball of the France Football Magazine and many other football awards.

Yes, but a possible transfer in United can be your trampoline to higher goals.

For now this is in the sphere of possibilities. My goal for now is to score more goals for the national team than he did. I'm 26 now and I have a lot of time in front of me. If I play well, the cups will come naturally. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

loving the direct line of questioning. sounds like he was being interviewed by the Bulgarian Jeremy Paxman

[theis]

COME ONE BERBS SIGNING. Don't care where the money comes from tbh.

[No Longer Bling]

christ wheres that from?

cant believe they were that direct, i almost feel sorry for big berbs.

[Nathan mufc fan]

I love how SSN hardly mentioned any of the Spurs part during his interview, it was all about how great United were.

He did say right at the start he was happy at Spurs though.

Jims right Mart is adamant he aint sorting any one out with tickets this season

[Coldberg]

Tickets really aren't that hard to get. I don't have a season ticket & I think Martin & Nick are the only two people in here who went to more games than me this season?

Oh & James you cannot just come in & start pimping my whores, get your own.

[James07?]

Nah, I'm just saying that given that all you've done over the last 6 months is slag him off, and we know getting tickets has sometimes been a pain in the arse for him, I don't think you should be surprised if he turns round and says do it yourself?

I am not going to go through every game of the season & check if I was there but yeah I went to pretty much every game I was able to was my point.

I missed Chelsea & I missed the cup final which isn't bad. Those are the two I missed out on that I can remember.

Went to a record number of domestic aways too this season. None of which I had to beg tickets for, I was offered.

Oh & everyone slags Martin off, it's what we do

[pjburrage]

I guarantee I was at every game I was able to attend.

[James07?]

you've taken it to a different level dude. Seriously, it's been very noticable. Most of us take the p*ss on occasions but it's not the only thing we do. Dunno what your interactions are like off the board (away from the wall) , but certainly on here you come across as a bit of an arse when it comes to martin.

[Weststandred]

Missed 2 home games. (wasn't in the country)

Went to 6 away games.

This isn't a best fan argument. I was pointing out that I got a ticket for pretty much every game I wasn't in work/on holiday for.

Can I have some examples of when I have made Martin cry himself to sleep?

I wasnt talkin about takin the ****, i was talkin about getting tickets.

Jonnys endless takin the **** is just to make up for the fact he isnt as good looking as mart imho so has to try and put him down make himself feel better.
