Manchester United F.C Thread [2009/2010]

[kp41]

This defeat is a big shame.

7th defeat of this season, 3rd at Old Trafford.

Sorry fergie you got it wrong. underestimated leeds knowing the rivalry, knowing the leeds players were gonna have a go. Where were our 1st team-ers! im so pissed off right now. Losing at home to a league 1 team...bloody hell.

 

[farmboy]

The f*ck?! Why??? WHY F*CKING LEEDS?! Of all the teams we could have possibly lost to, why, oh why did they do this against F*CKING LEEDS?

 

[Pogba4Now]

We let go of the FA Cup so easily. Thats the FA Cup NOT the League cup. I don't understand why Fergie fielded the youngsters again WTF. Same happened last year against Everton and we lost for such a stupid reason. Leeds should have won 2-0 at least. We played more dangerously when Valencia and Giggs came on but it was too late.

 

[mnj2x]

im just in a terrible mood right now. There were no positives to take from the game at all. we were abysmal. No hunger no desire. and compounded by the fact it was LEEDS just makes it worse. We definitely need a signing. DOn't know why fergie is so adamant not to sign anyone.

 

[Pogba4Now]

With Giggs, Neville and Scholes going out we definitely need signings. Obertan, Welbeck, Anderson are not the answer right now.

Did we really just lose to a League 1 team, at home no less?

I don't understand how a team can play so well in one game and then so poorly in the next. We have some major consistency issues.

We better make some huge signings this summer.

 

[Help?]

The players weren't up to it that's all. Some of these guys don't understand the FA Cup and don't understand the Leeds rivalry, to them its just some lower division team playing for a cup that they don't care about. Winning the FA Cup just not the same as winning the EPL or CL to them.

 

[Help?]

Ill be surprised if Berbatov is still in the starting lineup next season

 

[ladylover]

Shameful performance, I have never been as angry as today, unbelievable.....

 

[Mandieta6]

It's no Alcorcon, but it's still humiliating.

 

[cfdemarco]

Is it too much to hope for that we buy David Villa, Franck Ribery, Sergio Ramos and Giorgio Chiellini this summer? Maybe Buffon also? I can see it now:

----------------------Buffon-----------------------
---------------------------------------------------
Sergio Ramos----Vidic--------Chiellini-----------Evra
---------------------------------------------------
---------------Carrick-------Fletcher---------------
Valencia--------------------------------------Ribery
---------------------------------------------------
--------------------------Rooney-------------------
------------David Villa------------------------------

We wouldn't be losing to League One teams with that lineup

 

[Mandieta6]

At most yo'd be able to afford one of those. Getting Buffon means that you're in the same situation 2 years from now, Ramos is overrated and he's a thug, not to mention that he'd never come. You can't afford Ribery. Chiellini and Villa, those would be good signings, although your attack isn't that bad. With Rooney so young, you only need to worry about filling the other spot, and Berba isn't miles from getting there, Owen is a proven goalscorer, and Macheda and Welbeck need minutes they won't get with Villa in front of them.

Evans (despite beign a prick) is a good prospect, and when fit, Brown and Ferdinand aren't bad either. It'd make more sense to invest in a young defender, rather than splash millions on Chiellini.

Nani still isn't written off, and Tosic and Obertan could develop into sometihng good, so the same applies for Ribery. Rafael instead of Ramos.

You lose faith in your players very quickly.

 

[Help?]

We need a forward. As much as i hoped for Owen to rejuvenate himself, he is just not there and Berbatov seems to have had a great start to the season and now fallen off.

1. Buffon is only 31, which is young for a 'keeper. In comparison, VDS is 39. To say we'd be in the same position two years from now with Buffon is absurd.

2. Whether you think Ramos is a thug or not, he is still one of the better outside backs in the game. But you're probably right, I don't think he'd be willing to leave Madrid. I'll concede this point to you.

3. We can't afford Ribery? In case you don't remember we took in $130 million from the Ronaldo sale. We spent $25 million on Valencia and that's pretty much it. So in theory we should still have a $100 million war chest for summer signings, not to mention what SAF would have already been allotted. Now, whether or not they are actually willing to put that much money into players is a whole different story...but this is all just hypothetical anyway.

4. I agree that Chiellini and Villa would be good signings.

I don't give up on players, I just want BETTER players than what we have. Sure, Mecheda and Wellbeck show promise, but come on, wouldn't you rather have David Villa now and save those two kids for the future?

 

[Mandieta6]

The Glazers are asking banks to raise more than half a billion pounds so they can pay off their debts, and you think Fergie has 100m dollars to spend?

I'd bet you anything that your squad will be the same, if not thinner in February.

And Ribery would cost you around the same as Ronaldo cost Madrid, there's no way you can afford him.

 

[Arnau]

Ramos its like Reyes, would never adapt to england you better try to sign Maicon.

 

[cfdemarco]

I am going to be so pissed when Villa goes to City and Chelsea get Ribery.

 

[cfdemarco]

Oh, and to make matters even worse, I can't help but notice that two strikers we never should've gotten rid of, Tevez and Saha, are both having better seasons than Berbs or Owen.
