Manchester United F.C Thread [2010/2011]

[Pogba4Now]

Carlos Tevez has handed in a transfer requestion to Manchester City with the hopes of joining Real Madrid in January. This should come as no surprise, given that the blues’ captain has repeatedly spoke of his unhappiness since moving over to the blue side of Manchester.

Whilst at Manchester United, he initially talked of a long career with us, before returning to Boca Juniors in his 30’s. He then changed his mind and said he hoped he would see out his career with us.

“I cannot ever imagine leaving Manchester United,” Tevez said in September 2008. “I am in the perfect situation. My relationship with the club is perfect. Patrice Evra is my closest friend but the feeling I get from all the players is something I’ve not experienced before. I want to get the contract sorted and play for United for the rest of my career.”

However, since signing for City, he has repeatedly spoken about being tired, wanting to retire, and having lost all desire to return to Argentina to play football.

In a bid to cheer him up, Roberto Mancini made him captain, despite the fact he can’t speak English. But even the armband wasn’t enough to quell the deep depression being a City player has caused the poor ickle Argie.
How does the cow in the other field look to you now? This is how it feels to be City, Carlitos.

I don't know what he's got to be so unhappy about. City is doing well and he's scoring goals.

Plus going to Madrid is stupid, you have to contend with Higuain and Benzema.

 

[Pogba4Now]

This is how it feels to be in a EUROPA team. The atmosphere that reigns there is different. In United every player is treated as part of the "family" whereas there its more like a bunch of rich spoilt brats (*cough* Balotelli *cough*). Thats the difference.

 

[cfdemarco]

He thinks it'll be any better at Madrid aka FC Hollywood?

 

[Pogba4Now]

Haha definitely not better there. He'll probably play in defence if he goes there.

Apparently he's homesick. I wouldn't put any stock in rumors of him going to madrid, nor any hope in him coming back here. It seems the only place he'll be okay is back in Argentina.
Also, wow. How much of a dick do you have to be to reject a transfer request?

 

[cfdemarco]

Spurs did us a favor today, should've actually won but two more points dropped by Chelsea are good.

Spurs are my new adopted team by the way. As long as they're not playing United I am rooting for them. They're not at the level to compete for the league yet so I don't see them as a real threat, but they're like the feel-good team of the Premiership, and I love that a new English team has hit Champion's League and is doing well.

 

[Pogba4Now]

We haven't kicked a ball in 2 weeks and still are ahead of Chelsea

Big BIG game tomorrow. Its a MUST win. With the team playing so well I'm confident we can overcome Arsenal. I'm predicting a draw or win.

Btw MB Diouf scored this weekend. Classy finish. SAF gonna have a headache deciding on strikers in a few years with Welbeck, Diouf, Macheda, Chicharito all impressing.

And regarding Tevez...

 

[cfdemarco]

I wouldn't label it as the 'fall' of Tevez. He hasn't fallen at all.

Let's be honest, he is a better striker now than he has ever been. He had a brilliant season last year, and has 10 goals in 15 games this year.

You can't say a player has 'fallen' just because he is homesick or does not enjoy living in England or isn't happy at his current club. He is still bossing things on the field, when he plays.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Moving from an EPL/UCL winning team to a EUROPA team is certainly a fall

 

[Mandieta6]

So is there any player you've sold that you don't demonise?

 

[Pogba4Now]

Yes, e.g. Beckham, Veron, Ruud Van Nistelrooy, Jaap Stam, Cole, Yorke etc. Even Ronaldo.

And btw we never "sold" Tevez.

 

[Help?]

Well. I hope I can escape from work early

Anyway, I found an AWESOME Turkish Airlines featuring United players...



Best commercial ever!

LMAO that was great! Love how the twins held their cups in the same way too.

 

[Help?]

Tevez just sounds like such a primadonna. You've been playing in England for how long? Learn the damn language already. If you show some real respect, then maybe you'll get respect back. This is United all over again. He is talking about a break down in relationships with the staff and yet trying to sound all innocent and hurt. He just wants the fans to be behind him, so that he could leave like a hurt lion. He was stirring **** up at United and he will soon start stirring **** up at City. For all his great performances, he really ****s up the team morale. Don't trust his innocent sweet talk, thank god he is not at United anymore.

Great win and a very disciplined performance from our boys. Arsenal did not get a sniff at goal. Rooney could have finished the game around the 60th minute, what was he thinking blasting the ball like that.....all in all very good win, two points clear at the top with one game in hand, things are looking good!

 

[Help?]

Very disciplined indeed, just wish we weren't so wasteful

 

[Recrero152]

Too bad Rooney didn't get that penalty in. He could really use to pick up some goals to get himself in good shape again. Otherwise a great win and now it's off to Stamford Bridge. If we manage to win there, we will get such an advantage.

 

[adedawson]

i'm starting to wonder why we didnt sell Rooney.

whats wrong with him... hows he gone from the player he was last season to this. Whens the last time hes scored? (not including penalty's)

 

[Filipower]

Did you watch the whole game? Apart from the missed penalty, Rooney and Nani upfront were fantastic.

 

[Mandieta6]

No, he's totally right, I have a long list of players I want out of Chelsea: Drogs, Terry, Anelka, Lamps, all of whom have missed a penalty kicki here and there.

**** that ****.
