Manchester United FC Official Thread

Personally I'd probably keep Fergie over Rooney. Fergie made this club into what it is, and his reputation is unquestionable in world football. I would say Rooney is probably the best player England has produced since Gazza, but he is by no means irreplaceable.

We lost Cantona, we lost Ruud, we lost Ronaldo...We still kept on winning titles because of Ferguson..So yeah, I'd choose Ferguson over Rooney.

First 3 players that came to my head Danny, yeah

if you overpunish, they wont do it again. if they do, then you punish em again, if they keep doing it you throw them out the club

What do you think the explanation is? Money? He's the highest paid player at the highest paying team in the world. He was negotiating a move to a Brazilian side earlier this year, and he's said he wants to play for Boca and win the Libertadores.

Yeah, and then you make your best players unhappy, or you lose them from the club altogether. This club still hasn't recovered from the last time it lost its best player, throwing Rooney out would be absolutely catastrophic.

Reports today suggesting Rooney wasn't fit to train. Makes more sense than fining him for going for a meal 5 days before a game.

That would make sense, and if it's due to him doing stuff he shouldn't be I hope he was fined.

Macheda has gone to QPR

Loan

Loan, wish him the best of luck. Come on Kiko.

Better play well then.

He'll need to get a new touch.

Remember that Berbatov tackle that started Giggs' goal vs Birmingham last season?

Hernandez needs help with his touch as well, just as bad.

The double 1-2 with Rooney

hernandez is awful at everything but positioning

Rooney's ball to Giggs was sublime, great finish too.

His movement and finishing ability is far superior though.

Good at heading/finishing, his movement in the box is great too.

yeah movement = positioning

finishing has been poor this season tbh. he missed so many against newcastle in the 1st half

Has he even scored for us outside the box yet?

Yet it still is among the top 5 in Europe.

My friend, and yet people would lead you to believe that Berbatov is a lazy player who doesn't track back I believe he only lost the ball 2 times against Blackburn on Saturday, and on both occassions he tracked the Blackburn players, excellently dispossessing them and regaining possession.

He could easily have had a hat-trick on Saturday. One where his sublime cross was almost put over his own line by the Blackburn defender, one header which narrowly went over and a 1 on 1 with the keeper had Nani put him through instead of shooting himself

My gut feeling is that Fergie will play Rooney with Hernandez tomorrow, we must certainly hope that this is not the case

Don't think so.

Didn't RVN only score 1 out of his 150 goals (all competitions) out side the box?

Remember when we played in the kits of 1950s in 08? They were awesome

the result wasnt though

Hernandez has had injury problems and its his 2nd season and players know more about him. But he will come again and start scoring goals, I hope im wrong but i think he will come again and prove he is a class goal scorer as long as United keep making the chances for him.

Yeah it was disappointing, but the players were under massive pressure in that game.
