I guess this year would e the first season, during which the X-mas N#1 won't be the champion at the end..

Actually traditionally being top at Christmas is a "poisoned chalice" usually it's the team at the top at Christmas that doesn't win the title. United are looking good, and all the teams at the top are losing points - only thing is it's the Hammers on Sunday, and they usually play like they're trying to win the World Cup against us. Still this time, Tevez is on our side

Got this from another forum, thought it would be handy

Ronaldo the best player in england at the moment....What a free kick.

Great to see rooney and saha score. Rooney worked really hard and Good to see park back. Nani should just improve on his decision making at times.

And i am glad we offloaded Kieran Richardson...he was the worst player on the pitch.

That freekick from which Ronaldo scored was a different style from how he usually strikes them...

According to The Mirror, the bet between CR and SAF this year is that if CR gets 20 goals or more this season SAF has to shave his hair off! And if he fails then CR has to do the same! haha

Bald SAF will be pretty hilarious


CR's free kicks are incredible; he seems to chop at them somehow to get amazing accuracy and ridiculous power combined.

Yeah but didn't Ronny say that they didn't set the bet up.

the negative Mikey again

It'd be hilarious if they did...

Well SAF is surely going to lose the bet, haha

Are we loaning the new striker we signed ? Manucho is it ?

no, we're not! we're going to count on him for winning us the CL this year, and instead of that, we're going to offload Saha.. :P

Surely we will loan him out! how would you expect a youngster like that to question Rooney's place?

manucho is older than rooney if im not wrong

argh, yeah. i forgot for once, that Rooney isn't that "old and experienced", as i usually threat him
Anyway, this Manucho will be helpful for the future. Who knows, it may turn out to be a hard bargain and bring us some joy in the upcoming seasons.

I dont mind having a tall centre forward around...Manucho has the built,is 1.88m tall and according to Sir Alex and Carlos Queiroz,he is quite pacy...

he only scored 16 goals in the angolan league, im skeptic.

ehm 16 for a whole season or 16 until now?
It doesn't really matter. :P

He might turn to be useful for the FA Cup. If we had stayed in the Carling, he could have had his time there too. Surely i don't see him given a chance in EPL and CL yet...

That was more than anybody else...

He was the top scorer in the league for 2 years in a row.

West Ham United 2-1 Manchester United

F*** me. Was very painful match to watch.

a very poor display by us,i had the feeling that west ham would grab this after Ronaldo missed the penalty!
if West ham had played great i could understand it but it was only manu playing very,very,very poor

dont deny west ham the victory...they deserved it. Were just sh*t. We hardly attacked. Cant believe ronaldo's penalty miss would come back to haunt us.

Put on your everton jerseys boys!

i dont know why SAf keeps putting fletcher into the team. every time that guy plays we have zero control of the midfield. not only that but this was the first time fletcher and Hargreaves played a game together, and it told.

tevez didnt have the same commitment as he usually does, and ronaldo and giggs didnt get the zervice they deserved from the middle of the park. all in all it was a very weak display.
