Football The 2011/2012 Season Thread

I think they are okay, but need time to get an understanding (yes time we don't have), Jones looks a lot better at right back and midfield for sure. We really need Smalling and Evans fully fit. Celvely and Ando are also both needed in the middle.

 

[soze]

No, we need to buy a quality midfielder and that's it. Even though I'm loathe for us to spend the cash, it may be Sneijder time.

A 30 mill bid on a Gotze is more Fergies style when he spends big they tend to be around a while.

I'd say another decent striker as well.

Berbatov doesn't have long left etc

 

[Ch3tan]

Yes, I'd prefer two younger players of good quality, which you could get for Sniejder money (although not a Hazard or Gotze given their valuations). But Sniedjer would be that instant lift we seem to need right now.

We've Rooney, Berba, WElbeck and Hernandez and you think we need another striker? Fuck me, you are a wrong un.

The lack of goals tonight was not down to the strikers, it was entirely the fault of the midfield for pathetic creation.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Yeah Man Utd are fine upfront and out wide in midfield, but questionable in defence and central mid.

 

[Keitanz]

If you want to challenge Man City/Barcelona seriously you pretty much need a Sneijder in your team.. I can't see him playing for you though..

 

[Everz]

Ba is such a don. Credit again to Pardew and his scouts for getting some of these players.

Noone can match the massive money Inter pay him.

 

[soze]

What about the kid at Ajax has he got stupid money bids already?

 

[Everz]

Also lads, feast your eyes on the Senegal striker line up.


Mamadou Niang (Sadd SC)
Souleymane Camara (Montpellier)
Papiss Demba Cissé (Freiburg)
Moussa Sow (Lille)
Demba Ba (Newcastle)
Dame N'Doye (Copenhagen)

There defense and midfield are solid also.. a tenner on then to win the Cup of Nations.

Eriksen?

Definetly one too watch, an insanely talented kid. Can't see him wanting to leave Ajax yet.

 

[soze]

I heard he is taking home 200k a week so over here he would need to be on 400k? that's a gamble.

mmm yeah dunno why I said that, just checked and all 4 of those strikers have at least a goal every other game.. your going to need another one (probably get a young one in) by the summer though maybe as replacement for Berbatov..

On paper they're no Ivory Coast imo.

Newcastle must be pretty frustrated at losing Ba and Tiote for a month.

 

[caLLous]

I think you should be paying more attention to your own striking problems, Utd are just fine in that respect. It's not like Berba has been a massive influence for them this last season, he has knocked a few in in the last few games though.

 

[megadave]

Haven't Welbeck and Hernandez just come back?

 

[Raven]

I hate to say it but Giggs got skinned. Ferdinand was toilet. Rooney looks as though he has had 1 too many Christmas grannies. Carrick was just Carrick. The backbone is/was fucked.

 

[Keitanz]

And Berbatov I think..

Simply pointing out they need another striker in the next 8months.

No idea why there are so many Man Utd fans on this forum

What they need is Vidic back and a Scholes replacement.

 

[Scouse]

Lulz-o-matic!

Only 11 points? We could still finish second. Quick - someone make a £92million bid for Ba

 

[Raven]

You could if you spent a couple of million in the transfer window

 

[Keitanz]

This time last night Man Utd were like 8 points behind Man City.. stranger things have happened for sure no chance of it happening at all though.. I still think 5th should be the aim... anything higher is a bonus but I really doubt we will get it unless Arsenal/Chelsea fuck up extremely badly..

Only way I see us getting in to the top 4 any time soon is getting Caroll scoring a shit load and getting an amazing winger similar to Juan Mata..

Because United have one of if not the biggest fan base?

blah blah blah plastics and all that.

No? just because I quoted him in the same post does not mean I aimed it at him..

There are a shit ton of Man Utd fans here.. and about same Liverpool/Chelsea/Arsenal then a few spurs .. that's about it just a bit suspicious

Yeah exactly and I even admit myself the only reason I support Liverpool is because they were the first team I pretty much ever heard about and instantly liked around 9 years ago.. so I'm a bit of a plastic yea.. but I didn't know anything about the club then

With no doubt Man City will have the most fans within 10years.

Because they've had the most success since football began in 1992/93. Sky tells me that there was no football before that, anywhere.
