We'll play down to the level of our competition...it seems to be the trend as of late. I have no prediction on the outcome...but I sincerely hope that the 11 players that take the field that day play with a passion and fire that was missing against the 'Dippers.

When's this game played? Don't tell me saturday, 'cause that would mean that you're insanely early with this thread.

Yes it on Sat, but I don't think its early, its 3 days away. :rolleyes:

i think its on saturday.
but really, some people start threads for games noone gives a **** weeks ahead. i dont mean this one, but alot of threads pop up, and im like, woo, good game, then i check it, oh its in a month. who the **** gives a **** about usa - mexico? maybe three, four days before the game, so you can debate whats to debate, and the thread isnt dead by the time the game comes. i agree games like CL finals, or **** like that, can be started a week earlier, but thats the max.

Damn, that Stead guy is quite good. He might cause havoc in defence with old boy Cole.

I'm not expecting a win for United.

same here:( , Only if Ruud and Scholes were playing.

Blackburn is no easy task, let alone Blackburn at home.
I'll go for 0-0 draw or 1-0 Blackburn win.

You are an idoit. It is a big game for us. It is a rivralry game and we do care just because you don't doesn't mean the game is worthless. If you don't care about the game then don't read the thread.

As for ManU I think they will win based on how awful Blackburn is.

Yeah, any player that comes from Nationwide Division 3 and score goals in the Premiership deserves alot of praise.

Draw, and another Chelsea slip up.

Blackburn 5 - 0 Manchester United(H)























































































































































































































































































































Realistically, it will be Blackburn 1 - 2 Manchester United. We suck at home.

look, you didnt understand what i meant. threads for the most important games in the european championships, or leagues, arent made 2 weeks in advance. thats why it bothered me.

Blackburn 0 - 1 Manchester United is my prediction. Hopefully Ruud will recover for this one and score. Been a while since he's done that.

Im really proud of Jon stead, he comes from my town, and for him to be doing good in premiership is good (Y)

Im hoping for a win, but not really expecting it. (:/)

Fergie ought to get his head examined. Where the **** is van Nistelrooy, Keane and Ronaldo?
Spector :hump:

Edit: soccerbest, beat me to it....

OMG Man U is gettin raped.

looks like another defeat.
bet blackburn are quaking in their boots. :f***:

Who plays right mid ... P. Neville??:rolleyes:

I'm going with a 1-1 scoreline ..... I guess they are resting all their big name for the FA Cup Final.

Jonathan Spector is the American guy right?

Its the attack I'm worried about. It's not that intimidating without Ruud or Looney Saha... I hope Southampton do us a favor by not losing to Chelsea.

Kleberson. Played there for us before.

What the heck, we can't rely on chelsea slipping up all the time, hope the lad out there prove us wrong, but I am not confident about it. :(

Then where does Butt, Djemba-Djemba play ....... who is the two holding midfielders .......

a] What the hell? The FA Cup Final is weeks away. My guess would be for the Chelsea cruncher.
b] Yeah, Spector is the American who plays in defence.

Three defensive midfielders in Butt, Djemba-Djemba and P.Neville :|

I think SAF had even given up the second spot. Now full focus on May 22. :|

Looks like P. Neville is playing left mid ......

I thought van Nistelrooy missed Liverpool game because of his bust-up with Bellion, so he is missing this game because he injured.

Poor half by our standards. There were a couple of decent crosses but no one gambled. Oh how we really need van Nistelrooy. And there is plenty of space for Gary to run on the right. :rolleyes:

Giggs can't play upfront, only option now, maybe bring Bellion on the 2nd half to partner Solskjaer upfront. :rolleyes:

What kind of a ****in` formation was that ? Yeah we`ve lost the league, but at least try to win the remaining matches by puttin` the best players there. Djemba-Djemba pissed me off with his needless ball flicks tricks. Jesus ****in` Christ he really needs to learn that no matter how many juggles he can make, it the ball ain`t in the back of the opposite net, it`s all ****in` useless !!!!! PASS IT LOW AND SIMPLE FOR ****`s SAKE !!!!!!!

Defence a little shakey,but much better as the game wore on...

Kleberson and Ole are the only ones that look like making anything happen.

Some neat passing by Kleb but no runners in to space,we need another target man in the box.... Bellion, Forlan?

Crap, missing Ruud and Saha. :(

Are Ronaldo, Ruud and Saha really injured or just being rested?

I think Ronaldo is being rested since he didn't get injured during our game against Sweden, and I'm doubtful he'd be trained so hard after that match and this match.

Bellion went on for Butt a few minutes ago..
pretting boring match really..

Man utd should win this match, as Chelsea are winning right now with an own goal.:(

EDIT: 2-0 to Chelsea:rolleyes:

Oh dear.
Stead scored with 5 minutes remaining.

Oh man, we had the best first half of the season ever and now we have the worst second half of the season ever.:rolleyes: .

If we lose we will be 4 points behind Chelsea, a draw 3 points behind Chelsea.

Thats it. Chelsea winning 4-0 now.

Goodness me :|
Forlan, another sitter in a defeat

goodbye, 2nd place gone. :kader:

Forlan, you muppet. :f***:

Sell Forlan, that useless crap. HE helped us a lot last season, but this season it's been total shiat from him. And Fergie better have a good explanation why neither Saha, Ruud or Ronaldo were in the game, after all they are our 3 main attacking players. And then Keane? Now only a win at OT next week and a win against Villa with a hope that Leeds draws Chelsea, will do it.

get butt p.neville..forlan and rest of the useless bunch out of manutd..


what a disappointing display! we dont deserve the freakin 2nd spot. just give it to chelsea and get over it!

and forlan seriously needs to go after missing that open chance.

Fergie better explain, why Ruud, Keane, Ronaldo and Saha were missing. :f***:

Disgusting, a 3rd defeat in a row. We deserve 3rd place, and I'm quite happy to finish there. :|
As for Forlan, I suppose everyone will pin this defeat on him, thats the way things go around here isn't it?

Fergie get your wallet out.

wow, this guy Stead cant stop scoring :o now maybe the big clubs will pay attention to him

An absolutely awful performance. :( I can't believe Forlan missed that sitter right at the end.

Damn Forlan !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1:f***: :f***: :f***:

just like that.
while chelsea seem to be taking even their ending games as title games although they know they will not win it,man utd are just letting the games pass by.
ferguson although a genious,he has this history with him regarding his mood.
he has tinkered TOO much this season
i'd say that djemba ,butt,bellion,forlan are of NO use.
every player shows a sign of a skill,but for how long do we have to wait?
man utd looked awfull today.
with one exception-ryan giggs.
he has always been there this seasonhis performance today was fine.we looked like a team with only 2-3 players.
very bad.
i know man utd can change things next season,and they will but the ruud and keano thing is really eatin' my head up!!!

very frustrating week for man utd supporters:(

yeah there is still hope of coming second.

btw Keane is injured remember he didnt go to play for Ireland this week because of an injury.

I am pretty disgusted, like most Man. United fans with the performance. There was no objective, no impact on the Blackburn goal. To be fair, the 14 players that played deserve to get criticism. The passing is terribly awful and is even lower imo, than the standards set by most of the Division 1 clubs. Fergie should get some blame too. We were playing a disorganised formation with P. Neville and Butt as wingers. We were terrible in attack. How many attempts have we managed that made Friedel worked?
We really are playing footbore and I'd expect some changes to be made particular with Silvestre, O'Shea, Djemba-Djemba, P. Neville and some others axed from the match next week. I have to agree with shokz, they are overpaid. The crowd has been roaring, but have the team?

Congratulations to Blackburn though, especially Gallagher and Stead. It was a quality pass from Gallagher to Stead, and a quality finish from the latter. Stead will be a big star in the future.

We're going to get a thrashing in the FA Cup final if things carry on like this.

It's now mathematically impossible for us to finish second anyway.
As for Forlan, it's entirely not his fault we lost. The players that were playing before him have to get some of the blame for not creating decent chances.

May I suggest a certain £12.5 million rated Swede?

ya and also if fergie tinkers too much in the fa final

Fking gutless performance… how many losses by 0-1 to bottom-half teams?? This squad is weak. Period. When the squad players come in for the “lesser matches”… Time to rip it apart and upgrade (ie. finance new acquisitions by clearing out the old rubbish) the back-up squad members to anything approaching Man Utd back-up standard. Need a new on-pitch leader… without Keane, there isn’t an inspirational or cajoling character to urge everyone on.

No, Zlatan can **** off.

Some of the players do not deserve to be in the First 11 of the FA Cup Final. And shokz, its not Zlatan, but Freddie rather.

Freddie can **** off aswell then. :)

You really think Arsenal would sell United any player for under 30m?

You'd be lucky to get Cygan off us for 45m.

Freddie would be 200m for you, and he's cheap.

(H)

Fergie has thinker with the side too much, why the **** can't he play our best 11 from now onwards. Get Keane, Ronaldo, Saha and RVN back intot he starting line-up for **** sakes.

Freddie???? I rather have Wright-Phillips.

Have we given up already? Why is Fergie doing all this tinkering?
is the dresesing room unhappy with him?

Does Fergie have a plan doing all this? Testing the players perhaps?

I don't think Fergie cares if we get third. All he wants is the FA cup. imagine if we lose to Millwall though....

actually the atmosphere throughout the season...................................rio,stupi d bans,fines,biasing,dumb decisions,f*** m&m's,and now ruud and keano rumours have brought down the team morale,they looked as if they want to really end the season fast

Freddie...Wright-Phillips.

You know, buying from your rivals gets you robbed blind.

agree. Gallagher is good and Stead is a superb goal scorer right now.

when will Dong Fangzhou be playin???

Forlan bashers are f'king retarted. Im sick and tired of this. Last season he played amazing, saves United from losing the title (in numerous ocations....unarguable for you idiots who want to start up with your stats)

What does Fergie do? Bench him. He places him on the bench. Gives him about 5 minutes of play EVERY 5 GAMES.....And He STILL manages to score and play amazing.

If u seen forlan's interviews from Uruguay, ud know how he feels. Just look at him. He doesnt give a Sh*t anymore. its almost as if hes depressed playing.
Theres going to be teams diving head first to pick him up. Even Barcelona's coach (i think him or Valencia's) (almost a year ago), stated that Forlan was pretty wasted in United.

Internationally he plays amazing (ask brazil:hump: ) United plays like CRAP for the whole season, and ur gonna blame it on a Forlan miss or that he plays 5 minutes a game?
Even Rud Van (hes good ...ok....but its pretty hard not to score when EVERY PLAY in United's arsenal are writtien to just "Pass it to Rud when hes in the box". Imagine United without Rud? Oh man. How bout this? Blame it on Fergie! Like, really. Wow. Im shocked that People can be so thick headed that they wont regognize the "great" Fergie as the one who should leave because United has been playing like crap for years.

His time has passed.

Forlan bashers make me sick.

I cant forget his miss against Middlesbrough.:(

Yeah and so what, he's not to blame for United's downfall this year or today's defeat, its the team.

Well, from the moment team seletion was announced, I already expect the loss. :rolleyes:

Kleberson and Phil Neville as our wingers say it all. :rolleyes:

Big well done to Stead, he's proving he can bang in the goals like he did for Huddersfield.

Yeah, if he carries on scoring then he is surely an upfront candidate for England's WC 2006 qualifying campaign.

Latest.Van nistelrooy rested.Ronaldo injured(supposedly),keane injured,Saha rested.

I think Ferguson has given up second place and is now just playing because the season has a few games left.He is too ******* arrogant.Thats why Man u are in this position today.Because he could not get over his stupid rifes he sold 2 remarkable players and replaced them with inexperienced younsters who come up aginst the experience of Chelsea, Aresnal and expect to win FAT CHANCE!!.

I really want to see what he will do this summer.Beware alot is going down.Probaly even Fergusons depature.In all his 28 years at Manu only 1 Champ league and a few titles.Pis poor.

In his 17 and a half years at Manchester United, he has won more than what most managers can only dream of - and you call that piss poor? riiiiggghhht. :rolleyes:

I find it hard to believe you were born on February 3, 1979. :rolleyes:

I'd take Forlan on my squad any day of the week... He's not just your ordinary Sunday tap-in striker.

This picture describes it all really.

Actually, it's Nicky Butt that was playing on the right.

Bellion at leftback next week.

This is really disapointing. Bad result for sure.

I wonder what the odds are for Milwall winning the FA cup. I think they will have the belief that they can beat after recent results.

we'll win easily against milwal if we have ruud,saha,keane and ronaldo in the squad

Saha is cup-tied. How many times do people have to say that?

i just wanna point out that I lurve Steadinho :)
