Ryan Gosling Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Limited Man Utd line up today. Tevez not involved. Also missing Nani, Hargreaves, Anderson, Saha, and some Portuguese guy. Campbell and Rooney up front. Newcastle give debuts to Coloccini, Guthrie and Gutierrez. Could be an interesting game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eckauskas Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 That was ****e. Side note: The ball bouncing off of a referee, resulting in the break down of an attacking move should result in an indirect free-kick IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magicTs Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 On that performance Utd had better get Ronaldo, Tevez and Nani back quickly or they may have some serious points to catch up on the other big 3. They have Portsmouth away in their next game a week on Monday and then have a week off the Premiership for the Super Cup (or whatever it's called nowadays!). They then travel to Anfield and Stamford Bridge either side of the International break. Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eckauskas Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 If SAF is serious about bringing in Berbatov, we need to do it NOW. We desperately need a targetman, and this talk of Silva coming in is very disappointing. The last thing we need is another midfielder, we need a targetman to compliment Tevez up top.

Just been speaking to a couple of lads who were at the game and they say that they fully expect Berbatov to be in the line up at Fratton Park a week on Monday. Next 3 league games : Portsmouth (A) Liverpool (A) Chelsea (A) I reckon Fergie would bite your arm off for 5pts out of those games but I reckon Utd will do well to get 3.

Liverpool have been unlucky against Man Utd at home recently and I think they will get the breaks for a win this time. Chelsea have owned Utd at home recently. As I say Utd would be happy with 5pts but they will do very well to get them given their current injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deejpee Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 United will pump Pompey and Liverpool easily. I recon they wont even concede over the 2 games. Chelsea away though is going to be a superb game!! Berbatov will bang the goals in for United, SAF has wanted a target man since Ruud left and this will fill the gap.

See - this is why I'll never be able to understand Man Utd fans. For heavens sake man: you've just won the ****ing European Cup, and two straight titles, playing unbelievable football at times. Is this just supposed to go on forever and ever? Are you really that greedy? Can't you see the problem if the EPL turned into a one-horse race for now and all eternity? At almost any other club, there'd be a grace period after doing what you did last season. But no: instead, you're whining after one measly game, and a result that is merely identical to your opening one last season anyway! To put it another way: in what way is this mentality any different to an OF fan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To put it another way: in what way is this mentality any different to an OF fan? I assume that '92/93 is still a bitter pill for you to swallow then? Don't be bitter about it, it was 15 years ago Yes, we have just won a European Cup and Premiership double, but that was last season. This is now. How did Barcelona react after winning the European Cup in 2006? By losing out on all fronts the following season. Teams like Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea have all spent money on improving their teams, whilst United have not. This worries me a tad as our best player will be on the sidelines til October at the earliest, and we've still only been left with 3 recognised strikers. One of whom, being Louis Saha, is absolute gash. Today showed that United lack a targetman when trying to play long, like they did towards the end of the game. Hopeless high balls into the box. When we're face with this kind of resistance, we NEED someone to punt the ball up to, but who can also turn a game, like Berbatov can. Most Old Firm fans wat their team to go out and win every competition they play in, so my attitude is no different. I fail to see how thats relevant. 15 years of winning trophies constantly makes you want that run to continue, strange that. Why should I want to see Arsenal or Chelsea win the league? Would you like to see Hibs win the SPL? Actually, don't answer that. Most people know what your opinion on that would be after your attempts to devalue that day in April 2006. Typical wee team mentality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
