There might be another right back that fits the bill but he won’t meet the home grown quota, its worth paying extra for that.

Together with the Algerian they would revolutionise our full back positions and ease our home grown quota. Who else can do that?

Is that the wrong beer in the wrong glass or two beers on the go?…:)

That last paragraph reminds me of that film Blue Moon Rising. I think it was near the beginning of it when one of the city fan protagonists talks about blue being the colour of good things like the sky whether red is the colour of bad things like blood and the devil, like the colours of good and...

It won’t be empty then…:)

He ain’t getting one.

It takes an Irishman to talk sense, can’t believe he is a Liverpool fan. He is the only Liverpool fan I have heard talk any sense about it.

That adds a different perspective but there was other stuff. I prefer to remember those changes with 15 minutes to go when Mancini would put a centre back on and pushed Yaya up the pitch which would confuse the commentators until he scored the inevitable winner. He doesn’t need a statue, he left...

That goal, as soon as he got the ball in the middle of the park and teared down the pitch I knew that title was won.

I am so pleased about this. He really was a poor pundit. He lacked knowledge, intelligence, wit, foresight. He added absolutely nothing to the game. Often he would ask other pundits their opinions (particularly on attacking play) because he had no clue. So, WHAT WAS THE POINT HIM BEING THERE...

Just done the same thing, impressive. Combined with Cherki as a 10 and this lad as an 8 I can see a solution to the low blocks we invariably experienced. Both lads have a great ability to turn a defender in a tight space and either shoot or assist.

Roy Keane summed him really well when he said that it was a fallacy that Ferguson was all about United, he wasn’t, he was all about Ferguson.

They’ve named him. He is in a whole hemp of trouble.

Well put, the media never address the limitations of Fergie’s tactics because of the prolonged domestic success, fear of the manager and pampering to mindless rag masses. To be fair he knew how to motivate a team but I have to laugh when Pep and Ferguson are compared and the latter is elevated...

Veron was an interesting one. It was during the Fergie era and was an attempt to address a lack of possession during European games. It failed so he him sold on for the same fee. So, it wasn’t an example of wasting money but it was an example of Ferguson’s limitations, he lacked the...

Having a well deserved retirement!

I wouldn’t worry, watch this short from Rio Ferdinand:

Anthony is in a long list of hilarious Man United disastrous transfers. Pogba, Sanchez, Maguire. It has got to the point now that big stars don’t want to have their career sabotaged there and they have run out of money. The downward death spiral they are on is comedy gold particularly when...

He’s right!…:)

When fans talk about club size what they sometimes fail to recognise is fan growth. Which teams are new generations both home and abroad choosing and in what quantities? Clubs are very wary of this. A team can have a period of success and accrue large swathes of new young fans that grow up to be...
