Don't get me wrong, I hate Gerrard with all my gutts but he's still a tremendous player and would take him and Torres over Nani and Berbatov everyday! Nani and Berbatov have been vital to the Man Utd squad of course, not as important as some but it's not one player who makes a team. Of course one player can easily have a big influence and can effect the team but what a team must do is counteract this, lately we haven't been getting such good results; the effect of a certain player? Who knows, who knows - maybe it is, maybe it's not but what I know is that no one knows, even if they think so...they are immediately wrong.

Hopefully though we can get ourselfs together and the newcomers will settle in and whatever is pondering us right now can be conquered and we can get back onto a good running streak; Seeing as we just lost I believe this is actually good for us as it unsettle the players and force them to put more effort and surely give a kick to their competitive side. I'm sure Wigan are going to get some brutal hurtings on Saturday and  what I must say before leaving this post be, is that our new kit is disgusting and will be the first kit, both home and away that I will not get since 99 ;(

Went to the cinema and just finished watching MotD. Lol at Man United.

I don't remember saying Ronaldo wasn't a big miss... I doubt I would say that, as I am a Chelsea fan!

Man Utd really have an average midfield, no spark or creativity. Its Chelsea's for the taking this year

If Anderson can fucking do something on the field and score some goals, then I would say that Utd have a good chance at winning a couple trophies. If the midfield cannot get balls to the strikers, then we are done for. Giggs is fucking 35 and he outplayed every single Utd midfielder today. That just shows you...

I like to think that our midfield is good, and that we have 37 games to go to win the PL, But that honestly is just me hoping for things. I knew from the time I saw the lineup that Utd were going to fk this match up. When I intensely thought about the match on my way home from practice, I realise that Ronaldo is a big loss to Utd, very big. He could have changed that match after half time in a minute. I can see Rooney fking things up in terms or scoring this year, Berbatov is to old and Owen will get injured. Utd could have easily got Sneijder or VdV from Madrid as part of the deal for Ronaldo. SAF PLEASE SIGN ANOTHER MIDFIELDER!

I mean damn, my Rep soccer team has only 3 wins this year but we have better passing in the midfield compared to Utd. Nani, Anderson, Carrick WAKE UP!

put me down as an Everton fan!

normally the A-league (Australian league) is pretty poor quality... but check out these goals, that all came from the same amazing game:

Rapid Vienna 1 - Aston Villa 0

OMG cant believe it!!!

Boca 1 (Mouche) - Velez 1 (Zapata) (Sudamericana Round of 32, 1st leg). We played a brillant 1st half, but we were a bit overwhelmed in the 2nd one. Still, it was a good match, to be the first competitive of the season, a couple of great performances. And it was against the last champion, so it was a very difficult match

I'm confident we can turn this around in the 2nd leg
