constant BS from trafford(merged)

I dont get this part.

Schmeichel, who won five league titles with United, said: “I think City have done exceptionally well, but I think they are scrapping a bit at the moment. There have been a few 1-0s, a few close calls. It’s a sign that the season is coming to a close.

We have won 1-0, 3 times in the last 4 months?

"Don't talk to me about BOTTLE! Don't talk to me about BOTTLING IT!..."

If they're waiting for a Kevin Keegan or Tim Flowers - esque biting of the bait and loss of control they'll be waiting for a very, very long time. What they continually fail to understand is that this only works when the target bites back - (but our manager's too cool for that shit) - and that this sort of psychological crap only works if the other team is scared - (and we aren't! We're not the ones sh*tting ourselves about the title run in, they are.)

Can't wait for next week's Russell Beardsmore and Clayton Blackmore quotes.

LAUGHABLE.

SSN had him on quite often a few years ago.

Scrapping Porto 4-0. Scrapping Blackburn 3-0. Now fuck off Peter and give your head a wobble.

Bitter by any chance because Kasper wasn't kept on? I thought he was a balanced kinda guy, clearly has a chip on both shoulders

Fergie cranking up the mind games

Ahead of our April 30th "El Classico" at The Etihadand their trip to Spurs on Sunday, Fergie has been TRYING to turn up the heat on City, leading to Platt coming out and say that we are concentrating only on ourselves!

Here is a quote:

Sir Alex Ferguson preys on Manchester City's novices

• 'My players have been used to big-game situations'

Andy Hunter, The Guardian

Manchester United manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, believes his side's big-game experience will help them against Manchester City.

Sir Alex Ferguson believes Manchester City's desperation for a first title in 44 years could prove decisive if Manchester United capitalise on their greater experience of the big occasion.

Ferguson was careful to avoid inflaming local hostilities ahead of a crucial derby in the capital, claiming City's wealthy owners "were correct" to invest in "big plans" and highlighting the individual experience in Roberto Mancini's squad.

However, the United manager does believe City's lack of trophies could be a factor in the run in. "It's possible," Ferguson said. "But I don't know the mental side of their players because I've not worked with any of them apart from Tevez of course. I know my own players and, obviously, they have been used to big-game situations many times. We don't have to conquer that.

"It can be very difficult to block out the occasion, simply because sometimes the occasion overrides everything else. When you go there it's for an important reason and that can affect some players. I don't think there's any doubt about that. It's a fact. All we can do is prepare our players properly, make sure the information you give them is fine, and trust that their own temperament, and their own beliefs, come into it."

Oh wait, that was (with minor edits to remove "FA Cup Semi-Final" details) Fergie spouting off on Friday 15 April 2011, before we were due to play them at Wembley!

Same shit, different day......That saying about "old dogs and new tricks" comes to mind!!

Re: Fergie cranking up the mind games

What's the biggest game in World football?

The World Cup Final?

How many of your squad have been involved in the biggest game of all big games?

At least he's finally admitted what we all knew.

If the scum want to know about the mental fragility of a side that hasn't won the title for ages they only need to look back to Blackburn in the 90's. My memory might be playing tricks, but I seem to remember it was the scum with their "winning mentality" that bottled it against West Ham and handed Blackburn the title - jog on you rag twats.

As I said before, clutching at straws!

Sad bastards!
