erm.. whats crazy? my prediction? you'll see tomorrow :mrpimp: (H)

Nil-nil draw. The only fitting result for a match between two such **** clubs. :p

Sperz will win.

enough is enough.
man utd playing for their lives.

4-0
rvn,giggs,rvn,butt

2-1 Spurs and the Misery continues for ManUtd

Ledley King and Robbie Keane

Scholes

Man Utd will win 3-2
RVN x 2
Scholes

Really Man Utd won't win 4-0 against Spurs
I expect 2-1 Man Utd RVN and Giggs

I am thinking either Man U will not score, and lose, or they will score and go nuts. 3-1 perhaps... Forlan, Scholes, Solskjaer.

EDIT: Didn't read the article about Saha injury.

I can't see us winning this, or any game for that matter the way we're playing at the moment. What the hell, I'll be optimistic! 5-0 to us:p

i doubt man utd will slip up again.
draw or win for man utd.

Ruud van Nistelrooy will be the player to watch.

He has never failed to score against Spurs since joining Manchester United.

i say 2-2 draw.:)

One Keane is just a plain ****, the other Keane is a dotty cartwheeling ****.

It's hard to pick between the two.

Robbie Keane first rose to prominence with Wolverhampton Wanderers, ................................... prompting a Premiership bidding war in the summer of 1999. Aston Villa balked at the £6 million asking price - still a British record for a teenager - whilst Alex Ferguson famously declared he'd pay no more than 500,000 and play him in the reserves.

The aim is to see a return to form - difficult when you have a squad ravaged by injury and suspension.

Sir Alex Ferguson again goes into a football match this season, his squad not boasting a clean bill of health.

Fresh from the disappointment that Rio Ferdinand’s eight-month ban has not been reduced, Ferguson gears up for the visit of Spurs on Saturday with an all too frequently occurring selection headache. The United boss could be without eight first-team players this weekend.

Keane, Ronaldo, Saha, Djemba-Djemba, Kleberson and Fortune are suffering from injury, while Gary Neville and Rio Ferdinand remain suspended.

”There are quite a few injuries,” Ferguson told us. “There is a lot of patching up to do. What I am trying to do is getting 16 fit lads, we are not going to be taking any chances with injuries. We can’t afford to. There is a bit of biting the bullet at the moment.

”Roy Keane started doing a bit of training this week and hopefully he will be back soon. Djemba-Djemba came back from Cameroon carrying an injury. Kleberson got injured in training and Ronaldo got a knock last week in the Derby game which tightened up the injury he picked up in the previous match against Porto.

”Gary Neville is suspended and obviously Rio is out and Fortune we know is injured for the season.

”There is a bit of biting the bullet at the moment,” said Sir Alex. “In saying that, we still have plenty of quality in the attacking sense. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is much better now, and we’ve got van Nistelrooy, Giggs with Forlan and Bellion to come in.”

One attacking option United have been deprived of recently is Louis Saha. The £12.8m signing has been hampered by an Achilles injury. The former Fulham forward requires rest so as to avoid an operation, risking playing the Frenchman is not a one Sir Alex is willing to take.

”The Louis Saha injury is one that we are having to bite the bullet on. It’s one of those injuries that, if we don’t address it now, it may mean an operation for the lad. We want to avoid that.”

Ferguson may have a battered and bruised squad, but the mood in the United camp is one of resilience.

”The players have trained very well this week,” he said. “They have shown a terrific attitude. It’s been very positive. You have to have that in training. You reinforce the good habits that they have always had.

”We’ve had some terrific sessions this week,” the manager concluded positively.

Bugger. :f***:

Still am not gonna change my prediction :p

Im not going to change mine ;)

in a rapid change of direction, i think tomorrow is a vital game for us to win, i know we need to win every game now, but tomorrow, we need to look strong and put in a solid performance to build confidence for the upcoming games, the defense will be crucial tomorrow as some of our attacking options will be cut, ronaldo, saha,:(

Maybe chance for Ole to partner Ruud upfront. :D

Man U is gonna get OWNED.

5-2

it'll be a tough game. spurs a side which could put us even more down... i'm not confident at all.

Im gonna change my prediction to 10-0 to spurs now:rockman: :crazyboy: (H) :mrpimp: :hump:

And iam serious too.

3-0 Spurs

Carr, Keane 2

My mate is going to watch this game, he is going to sit behind the dugout. He gonna take some pics for me.:mrpimp:

3-0 to man utd......

Forza ManU.... RVN 3 Spurs 1 :rockman:

Spurs 3 - 1 United :p

Sir Alex Ferguson has given a hint that United are now focusing on the critical season-saving FA Cup semi-final with Arsenal.

The Reds boss refuses to throw in the Premiership title towel but he has intimated that his campaign target has now been realigned.

"We have a really exciting semi-final with Arsenal coming up and the players will want to be in the right form for something like that," he said.

"As individuals they'll want to play in that match. But we have still got to chase second place if we can't get first in the league.

"Winning the title is not out of the question but we have made it difficult for ourselves.

Form

"We have to concentrate on getting our form back. If we play healthier football it will return and we can take it from there.

"Spurs at Old Trafford tomorrow is a good game to turn the tide. We have a great record against them."

Ferguson is hoping that he'll have captain Roy Keane back to drive away the demons of two monumental blows with the 4-1 derby defeat against City following on from the crushing Champions League exit at the hands of Porto.

The Irishman missed the Porto draw at Old Trafford that KO'd the Reds from Europe because of suspension.

He wouldn't have made the Champions League line up anyway after suffering a hamstring injury against Fulham in the FA Cup two weeks ago that cost him his place in the derby XI.

Optimism

But the midfielder has given Ferguson cause for optimism in his recovery.

"I want our important players back and Roy is an important player for us," said the United manager.

"I am hopeful he will be able to return against Spurs."

Gary Neville will complete his four-match ban after the Tottenham fixture and a lack of numbers at the back means a reprieve for the back line that shipped four goals at Eastlands against City.

"Mikael Silvestre wasn't 100 per cent fit against City after missing four matches with ankle ligament trouble," Fergie added.

"But you often get that at this stage of the season where you have to play players with injuries.

"But I am expecting him to be ready for Spurs."

4-2 spurs
(defoe x 3) Giggs
Keane scholes

Thats our Giggsy, proving his critics wrong once again - just like last season.

How can people say Giggs is losing it?. Why is he carrying the can for United's bad performances, it's defensive errors which are making him look bad, Giggs is still one of the best wingers in the world. 1-0 United so far hopefully we can come back.

Arsenal made it 2-0 with Bergkamp. The wind is pathetic at old trafford.

I hear you, but thats the media for you, always finding a scapegoat.

Giggs has been good all season for United, and credit to Solskjaer for setting up the goal, his first start since returning I believe.

However I think United are going to need more goals, I don't see us keeping a clean sheet against Spurs.

ht, the pitch looked terrible imo

Yea whats been up with tha pitch lately? I remember is was re-surfaced last season I think, how come it has gone so bad?:confused:

HT.


This is the first time I've seen Man U play possession football in like 7 games :confused: it is only natural that when you play like this, the opposition pulls back and starts kicking the ball out of play.

Bring on Ronaldo!!:taz:

we missed ronaldo when it is for a free kick on the left

you guys should have seen ruud's outside the box attempts, they were decent

bring on ronaldo and butt :taz:

Hopefully Keane will score with some luck of the Irish :brow:

WTTTTTTFFFFFFFFFFFF FORLAN

George Best is in the Gillette Soccer Saturday studio watching the game, and according to him, Ryan Giggs is having a great game. (Y)

I still don't see us keeping a clean sheet though.

Giggs denied of a second......from like 5 yards... and our defence is looking good.

PS - Giggs, O'Shea, Solskjaer, all playing their best games this year.

O'Shea nutmegs Dalmat :p (H)

Giggs is clearly alerted by recent criticism. And Carroll just made a good save :rockman:

The wind in huddersfield is really bad aswell, and northampton vs huddersfield was abandoned for safety reasons. so its windy in all of england.

Although i hate Man Utd, i like Bellion very much. He's one of my favourite CM players too. 3 great goals by Man Utd today, but i guess it's too late now.

I'm just glad our defence shut down Keane, Defoe and Kanoute. Good possessioning takes much pressure off the back four.

Crissy scored from approx. the same spot as Wright-Philips, maybe a bit closer. He curled it as it banged off the left post and in, might've shaved a Spurs defender and changed direction a little bit. Bellion's goal was very, very calm... almost like Henry whom I have heard him being compared with.

Ronaldo and Bellion......the future is red!http://www.redcafe.net/images/smilies/devil.gif(H)

Possibly, heard that Valencia might bid for him. He had a decent attempt and should've scored froma Keane cross.

Good game by Man U, looking like their old selves again.


Forlan should leave, Saha, Bellion and RVN is enough for us. Djemba and kleber should play more this season to get them ready as regulars for the next.

so far, only 2 games of united didn't aired if i'm not mistaken.

Great game by United. Had a feeling Spurs underestimated the power of ManU, as I heard somewhere in reference to Michael Owen, u can lose form but u cannot lose class, and that is exactly what Spurs' fault was today. They figured they were simply coming in to kick a man while he was down, not knowing that he held in his grip a hand grenade.
Anyway, next week u play arsenal, now that will be a real test, but for me as an arsenal fan, its just nice to see the United of old, it would have been a shame if u came into the Arsenal game with a defeat, now we are assured of a display and whoever wins can feel some sense of achievement.
Ive always said u need great opponents to have the oppurtunity to do great things, having a collapsing united in this potentially great season sort of took the lustre out of it. Good job guys.

Post-match Interview on Sky Sports.

Fergie was delighted and rightfully so, he praised Giggs alot.

So I think its safe to say that Giggsy's going no where.

I think the title race is still on . . . Never write us off. This is the performance I`ve been waiting for. And eventough Giggs looked amazing, seriously, it was only 75 % of his best. But then again, it was good enough. The only players that dissapointed me was RvN and Forlan. RvN played more and more like Heskey, poor touches and crumbled, while Forlan can`t keep his concentration in front of goals.

ya espn star sports are helping us much.
but the problem here in bombay is that when the india-pakistan cricket match is on,they cut espn and put on dd national for the match which sucks
and on the 28th during the man utd-arsenal match,the 1st test match between these two will start.so no arsenal-man utd:(

stupid cricketism:f***: :f***:

as for today it was :VINTAGE MANCHESTER UNITED -(minus)ruud.
ruud could have got a hat-trick.but he played a bad game today...............
and forlan?well......................donkey kong

oh dear. looks like manure are all pumped up and ready for us.

highbury awaits then.

Good win for United, rather dismal performance from Van the Man tho... :kader:

But yes Giggs was spectacular, and I'm glad to see Ronaldo and Bellion two youngsters score. (H)

Stephane Dalmat was quite good for the Spurs. :rolleyes:

What title race.
Even if ManU beats Arsenal they would still be nine points behind and Chelsea still to play.
That scenario means either ManU will fall 12 or 11 points behind if they lose or draw to Chelsea, or Arsenal will increase their lead over Chelsea if ManU wins or draw.

Either way, there are only two teams in the title race, and Manchester isn't one of them. Beating Chelsea and Arsenal would not do a thing to the title race for ManU, if Arsenal continues to play well.

i don't think RvN played bad game today....:)
his finishing was bad, but the chances he had, his skills, and if he do scored goals, i think it's his best match of the season so far.
btw, saw a couple of 360 spin by him too...:D

United has just as much chance in the title race as Chelski, so there.

Yes it would....:rolleyes:

More pressure on Arsenal, they might slip up again, which doesnt seem likely though.

looks like we (asian) are lucky to see almost all united's matches :ewan:
so far, only 2 games of united didn't aired if i'm not mistaken.

The matches that weren't shown live this season were the mid-week matches in January and February. Bolton Away and Middlesbrough Home. That's quite a biased TV station but its in our favour . (H) :crazyboy: :jambo:

and i agree that Ruud played quite poorly today. He needs a goal like the one against Rangers. But this time, Forlan is also out of form.

We really are missing Ronaldo from set-pieces on the left of our midfield.

Say whatever you want, we`ve been in this situation before, 12 points behind, at third place with less than 10 matches to go, and we still managed to kick ass in the end. We will never give up until the last day of the season. Arsenal may seem undefeatable, Chelsea may seem to be back in good form, but **** can still happens and I put my hopes high on it.

ryan giggs ,altough not the pace he had,performed extreme.
good to see bellion score.
he needs a couple of starts

hope forlan is off next season.

well keep hope alive

win all your matches and hope Arsenal goes 4 2 3.

What a poor excuse dude... I admit we do miss Becks from those situations but we have enough players who can execute those free-kicks successfully. Forlan, Solskjaer and a host of other names could've taken those.

Giggs and Ronaldo on the wings, thats suits me fine. :D

Ole also played well on the right before being replaced by Ronaldo too, set up the first goal for Giggs.

Keane on defence, and Butt with Scholes at mid-field . . .

ronaldo is only 18.
just think what he'll be by 23-24.
db will be eating his pants after seeing ronaldo perform.and ronaldo can also play as cf

BTW, that Brown kid played excellent. I see that he could really a good England player in the future . . .













































The Spurs` Michael Brown of course . . .

Truth is - we're not missing Beckham(Many will beg to differ though).

When we were 4 points clear a the top of the table, there was no talk of missing Beckham then.

If we're missing anyone, then it has to be Rio Ferdinand, but now things at the back are beggining to look up for us(or so I hope).

but now with brown in his top,rio does not seem to be missing that much.although we could be much more RELAXED with rio.

How did brown (wes) played today?

gr8.always looked confident.
mikael also made up for his derby mistake by a good and solid performance.

Defoe almost out-paced him three times, fortunately Brown`s leg was long enough to do a last second tackle, commited a handball in a penalty area ( we were still only 1-0 ahead ), fortunately the referee was somehow blinded. And he dropped down hurt holdin` his mouth for no reason after an air battle with a Spurs player ( I`ve watched the replay, nothin` hit him on his mouth . . . ).

ya... everybody keeps on saying that, but u must realize that this is real life, not a manager game, players don't always train, gain experience, and IMPROVE. Think about it, Wayne Rooney, Michael Owen, they were all amazing at 16 or 18, but look at them now, they haven't improved much in a few seasons. Especially Owen, I dont think he's as good as he was when he was 18 or so.

Things don't always work that way, and who knows if Ronaldo will improve to become the best player in the world or will he stay at the same level, we don't know. We must wait and see...

:p

as per reviewing his performance,he has understood alot from the start of his season to the end.he now passes more.
his crosses r becoming more danger day by day.what more can one expect?

I'm not saying he hasnt and isnt goin to improve, I'm just saying that there probably wont be such a significant improvement, as he is already pretty good.

I'm not being negative or anything about Ronaldo I'm just trying to say that u never know how a player changes...

anyone know about OLE?
not ole gunnar,the nike OLE tournament.
i've heard that ronaldo will be participating.it is on 27th march.but on 28th is man utd-arsenal.so how can he?
anyways.the thing is too make the most dazzling moves in a game,not score goals.
it is all on nikefootball.com

whoa thats wicked nice, i heard about it. But it could be really on a different date.

^^ A tournament like that would be very nice... :o :rockman:

Time for Forlan to leave?:( i dont think Forlan fit in to the manu playing style.he had a long time to fit in and improve his playing skills.I think its time to put Ole back as a striker and play c.ronaldo on the right wing then they finde back to there old winning ways:)

If anyone wants the videos of the goals just go here. Its in the middle of the page. http://www.xtratime.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=1925241#post1925241

I'm not being negative or anything about Ronaldo I'm just trying to say that u never know how a player changes... He has improved massively this season. Hes changed from the young boy with 20+ stepovers with no crosses. Into the Mature young skilful crosser of the ball. He no longer dives, and plays more as a team than as one player. He is only 19 and to say there wont be a significant improvement is very doubtful. Players are spose to reach there peak at 28, well.....

Coughcoughbiased...

I'm also amazed how the game ended without a booking for him (didnt notice one). His tackles were not the best today, I think the win vs Fulham or draw vs Porto was his sharpest. But its not like Rio never screws up... I remember a few blunders from him but nobody changed their name to Rio Hater.

Here are the goals highlights, save shokz some effort :D the other highlights are mainly misses by Scholes, RVN, a Forlan screwup when he had all the space in the world but he thighed a Keane cross and it bounced away... far FAR away... and a good Keller save from a Forlan shot.

Ryan Giggs 1-0 (http://www.footballgoals.net/premiership/GiggsSpurs.avi)

Cristiano Ronaldo 2-0 (http://www.footballgoals.net/premiership/RonaldoSpurs.avi)

Damn! And they have less forums then we do!



Anyways, i still can't forget that goal. Amazing shot!:crazyboy:

How did they get that many posts so quick?!:o

Anyway, good result for Man U. A great confidence booster.;)

Rob Palmer, the match commentator is so biased :rolleyes:
:taz:
:sb9:

No i like him ......Wat goals this week by United, Giggs had the best match hes had for a while, hes lightning

3-0, eh? I'm not sure if the scoreline flattered us a bit because from what match tracker was saying Spurs were giving a good account of themselves in the 2nd half, but the highlights later showed just a couple of Spurs shots all game. The shots being Michael Brown's long range effort and Ziege's open header which he missed.

It could also have been more though. But I'll gladly take 3 goals for and as importantly, if not more so, a clean sheet. Particularly seeing as the clean sheet was against a Spurs team that seem to have little difficulty scoring at the moment.

Giggs capped of a fine performance with a very nicely taken goal. I was a bit concerned before because it seemed that we were creating chances but they weren't coming off, but Giggs settled some nerves for a while with that finish. Giggs had probably his best game for a while. He was playing superbly at the start of the season but had gone off the boil in the past few matches. It was good to see him play a game like that though, it shows he still has the game he had 5yrs ago. :D

O'Shea also seemed to have his best match all season. I was a bit concerned that he had lost his touch from last season, but hopefully this performance will help him rediscover that form.

Ronaldo's goal... What can you say? It was an incredible shot, and match tracker could hardly do it justice. Watching the highlights, I knew he'd scored before but I was convinced that he was going to cross from that position and he stuck the ball. I've seen plenty of goals that curl in around the keeper, but this one curled away from him. Keller got a touch, but the ball went in off the post. It was an incredible goal.

Good to see Bellion getting on the scoresheet too. If he could improve his technique he could be a useful asset because his pace would obviously cause anyone problems.

Nice result though, 3-0. Good to get a win too. :)

Was quite confusing on match tracker with there being 2 Keane's and 2 Brown's playing. You could tell if it was Roy tackling Michael, or Robbie tackling Wes.
