Who said 'sell Solskjaer'?! Come to your senses, man! :) Selling Ole would be very, very wrong. Ole's a legend, as the banner in the Stretty says '20 LEGEND', and there aren't many United players with a banner in there. Ole will no longer be a United player when Ole decides he doesn't want to/can't play anymore.

I'm glad (despite Glazer) that we're still getting lots of people at Old Trafford. Fergie and the players don't deserve to play in front of a half-empty stadium, especially with the new additions to the stands. Boycotting shirts, programs, and food is one thing, but we cannot purposefully fail to support our team at Old Trafford. Even with Glazer at the helm, it would be disrespectful to the history of the club to do so.

Mour's Park war with Alex
Alex Ferguson is set for yet another war with Chelsea chief Jose Mourinho — this time over PSV winger Ji-Sung Park. Manchester United boss Fergie hoped to tie up a £4million deal for the South Korea star. But the Dutch side’s insistence they will not let Park go on the cheap — plus Frank Arnesen’s move to Chelsea — has moved the Blues into the box seat. And that will only add to the tension between the two clubs who are already locked in a bitter dispute over Nigerian whizkid John Obi Mikel. Park, 24, is out of contract next summer and will this week discuss his future with PSV boss Guus Hiddink. Mourinho is keen to sign a wide-right man. And Arnesen, who helped nurture Park while he was PSV’s technical director, will give the Blues boss glowing reports on the player once he completes his contro-versial switch from Spurs.

I'm glad it's from The Sun. Chelsea buying Park would be the most pointless buy in the world.

The Sun just put 2 + 2 together and get 5. Why the hell would chelsea want park, when they have cole who can play on the right, then duff and robben interchanging, and being linked with joaquin and SWP, whilst also claiming to want one midfield who they are being linked with essien for.

would be absolutely pathetic if they want park just to stop us from buying him. :nape:

But I agree, the story seem rather bollox to me. Chelsea want a wide-right player, have shown NO interest in Park, the stpry came about because Arnesen is going to Chelsea (when, no one actually knows), then Chelsea could end up bidding for Park because Arnesen is a former PSV man...

Surprises could happen but it all seems a bit far fetched.

well Chelsea don't really need scouts at all... they can just sign whoever United are about to sign. Seems to have worked so far.

I'm really hoping this story isn't true because although he has great energy, enthusiasm and marketability, there are far better players in his position (against Milan, for example, he didn't seem to have great ball control and kept losing ball) and seeing as Mourinho's practically got an unlimited transfer budget, I don't see why Park would be a target. I apologise if this sounds really arrogant and maybe he'll prove me wrong and play really well in the Premiership (if he comes over here)...who knows.

hey, wasn't just missing out on a Euro spot to a team full of old cranks a great experience? (H)

In truth, Park would be foolish to go to Chelsea. By signing for United, Park would probably get to play around 75% of the games should he impresses. I think he is likely to challenge Giggs for the left-spot. I think too that if Park was signed for tapping the Asian market, Fergie will have no choice but to play him or else no one in Asia will buy his shirts. :jambo:
