Isn't the champions league registration closed since the 20th? Can't imagine getting anyone now that they won't be able to play in it

Is anyone else worried that we aren't active in the transfer window? Didn't every single person say that the reason we were so bad last year is that we didn't strengthen while we were ahead? Imagine if we strengthened now how much of a boost it would mean!

I dont mind if he's fit, I'd love to see Neymar against Zabba, especially with the Argentina-Brazil edge!

Why is everyone saying that when the Academy is finished that we'll move over there before matches? Training in the Ethiad the day before isn't just for the pitch dimensions and surface, as well as that its to get away from the pressure mentalitiy of playing there. No more do the players get...

Re: Samir Nasri +1 You can't compare the two directly: If i want someone to unlock a stubborn defence with a pass invisible to us muggles then I'd pick Silva. If i wanted someone to go on a run to commit defenders three at a time to open up space then Nasri's the man. I'm just happy we have...

Not intelligence as such but I don't like the whole stereotype of science against religion. ( I'm a final year student in Theoretical Physics and Maths) I'm not "stick to the holy text" religious, but I believe in something bring out there. What annoys me is people who call themselves...

Re: Javi Garcia (merged) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9P7fW0z8uXc&feature=youtube_gdata_player I agree that he isn't at the ideal standard we'd expect for a DM, but I don't agree with people crying out for him to be sold. He is valuable in is own way. He is quality in the air, can fill in...

Re: Clueless manager I don't think the manager should get slated on here. I think he's picking the team well enough each match but some prior keep letting him down. Firstly, I for one have my doubts about Yaya. It's generally accepted that he picks his matches and ambles through others as if...

That's a tall order

+1 Probably the best post I've seen on here.

I think he's a brilliant short term manager but doesn't do development well. I know he's going in that direction but I'm glad we aren't the club that are supporting him as he changes because I don't know how good he will be in that role

That was quite a long winded 'I told you so'

I don't agree with the whole back up width being the opposite side to Navas. At this level you don't just throw on a quick lad on the left and automatically attack from wide. The rest of the team have change the shape to provide cover, service, etc. So I think if we are looking for another...

Re: Samir Nasri is NOT useless Did you ever consider that it was his job to slow down the tempo? Our build up play was ridiculously slow last season but that seemed to be the aim. I even remember a few times last season when RM wanted to calm the team down and hold a lead he put Nasri in to...

In fairness, the Messi/Ronaldo difference makes sense as well since references would have to use "Cristiano Ronaldo" to distinguish him from other Ronaldos, but Lionel Messi would come up as just Messi most of the time, meaning that a search for "Lionel Messi" should return a lot less then...

Thought Rodwell did well and even saw Javi Garcia coming flying in with a tackle on the sideline. Fastest I've ever seen him move. What did ye think of Fernandinho?
