Nolan isn't all he's cracked up to be. Boateng was an odd one I thought, sometimes held the ball up well and like you say, Hull had the ball more when he was playing. However, other times he seemed to give the ball away very often and very cheaply, in a similar fashion to Nicky Butt.

Gibson, please.

who in their right mind would want to leave a premiership team for a fizzy pop league team?????????

Somebody who isent good enough for Premiership football ala Gibson ? He is sh*te!

Liverpool have put a bid in for Tuncay and Rafa has also had a meeting with David Silva.

I'd like them both at Anfield. Tuncay would be great back up imo.

it as meant at ash.............................

IF he gets fit, it'll be like a new signing for United next season.

Hargreaves > Fletcher > Alonso.

Let's just hope his knees aren't like my grandmas for much longer.

TBF who wouldn't want to sign the world's best defender?

I'm not. He saw the money and transfer kitty at Sunderland and realised he had a chance to prove himself as manager that can handle money, potentially to move onto bigger and better things...

Campbell and Simpson simply aren't good enough for United. Simpson would make a decent signing for a Blackburn type team, Campbell will probably end up on Burnley's bench, but would be better suited at Newcastle, 'Boro, Reading etc.

Gutted for Gibson, he's had a really good season when he's played, unfortunately he just hasn't had enough game time, I presume this signing is to benefit him rather than us, because with Hargreaves, Carrick, Anderson and Fletcher in the side he aint going to have much chance. I think he may enjoy a holiday to the North East however...

If you have nothing sensible to say, please don't say it.

If you're right on this one mate, I'll love you forever.

You have me quite excited now, although you could have told me when you actually heard about it!

Oh, and as for your sig...

[i2 - Attended... haha.....Seriously 6.74. But how did you miss so many clear chances??????? Worked hard, solid in the air getting the better of a taller centre half. Would have been 8.74 but your a scum fan and that can't be excused.[/i

Doesn't quite compare to this:

[iCB: Ash - 8, the Vidic to Rich's Ferdinand, etc etc. Was definitely the player I underestimated the most at this match. [/i

Even if it's on the Wear?





I have a magic touch when it comes to exciting people, although the last male this happened to asked me to dress up as a nurse at his fancy dress party.



Oh, and beer > texting. Sorry lad.

8.74 > 8. Me > you.





But seriously, a 5 foot 10ish young dwarf CB playing striker versus 6 foot plus experienced defenders, and I got the better of them. Fantastic IMO.

In the second half when t'old hamstring snapped and I went to CB, it was a commanding performance, the 'keeper hardly touched the ball. At least there were no more embarrassing diving headers sending the ball over the bar, despite been on the line.

If it's there, I'll never talk to you again.

You know [iexactly[/i where I want him to be!


Now I know where these stories about you come from.

You only got 6.74 because of these misses. I haven't even seen them but the way you described them made you sound utterly terrible.



I got an 8, not bad considering I've never played at centre back in my life! I wouldn't have missed those chances you've described to me either, I'm a striker by nature.

I'm not his agent FFS, I can't tell him [iwhere[/i to go. Steve Bruce, Sunderland and Premier League or Alan Shearer, Newcastle and Championship...that's the choice he needs to make. So he'll probably end up at 'Boro.





I didn't complain, it was another tally mark for the wall chart. Although he was upset when I turned up in jeans and a shirt, poor lad.

I got 6.74 because the Barcelona kit wearing pansies wouldn't know decent football if it smacked them in the face with a wet kipper.





It was about hot and early morning and I had just got in from a night out, give me [isome[/i credit. The volley wasn't that bad TBH, the header, well quite simply was awful, yet awesome at the same time. The one-on-one later on was $hit as well. To say the guy wasn't even a 'keeper makes it even worse, so we won't say that.





Oh well. I'm up front tomorrow night again, maybe third game lucky, I won't be holding my breath mind. Last week was just a truly awful week for football.

Easy decision. He won't get to play alongside The Ranger at any other club.

Agreed.

I love how you base your judgement on 5 games at most.

It looks like Fergie is trying to raise some funds and clear the decks, Campbell never looked like he would be good enough to me, not seen much of Simpson and I am a little surprised at Gibson.

Says the poster who does this all the time

When? I may have done but don't recall it?
