I was trying to be as impartial as possible by not putting too many City players in there. If I wanted the Manchester FC team to be anything, it would be this.Kenney_The_Blue said:MCFC BOB said:Yes.

Being unfair isn't putting in better players though, its then a paradox as you're being unfair to the superior player just to try and be impartial.

Zabaleta - Kompany - Vidic - Clichy

Valencia - Kagawa - Silva
Van Persie
That's right now, barring Vidic who looked thin as fuck on his return, which is a shame as though he's United he is a fantastic defender. Van Persie right now is incredible and has dragged United through in a lot of games, Southampton an example and he was able to fuck his penalty up on top of that. I think as a collective our strike force is better, but Van Persie is magnificent at the moment and putting him on the bench isn't doing him justice. Kagawa was another fantastic player at Dortmund, just needs to be allowed to settle, he has shown what he can do in some games already anyway.

Someone had a stupid idea and it was shot down in flames by both Boards.
There would have been a riot if it went any further and became public.
Sadly, it did happen and it did become public. It hit the headlines in January 1965 with the discussions taking place at a couple of points in 1964.
Furious letters appeared in the papers about it and the idea was quashed.
I was surprised the MEN chose this angle for the piece on Friday - the piece was supposed to be a feature on my new book "Manchester The City Years". Of the half a million words and 608 pages on City's history to choose from it was a few paras on page 253 that the piece focused on.
If anyone wants to read the truth about the story then obviously it's in the book, but personally I'd like to stress that this is a very, very minor point in the Clubs entire history. The discussions did take place but there are so many other much more interesting stories to consider.
