Haven't been using the forum really since before the season started and hardly any last season. Not much to say. I wrote the season off before it began, Moyes was left with a team that the spine of which has been weak and winning the championship last year was actually shocking as there was much better teams out there. Fergy had created that team and could pull that little bit extra out of them because the entire club was dictated by him.

We need a stronger central defense, a stronger central midfielder (fellani shouldnt been purchased), and the wide positions need serious assessment as with exception of Januzaj we been weak there. With RVP going back to being injured alot we need to think of a change of formation that has Rooney at the top (where he can do over 30goals a season from again), Mata in his better position in the hole and Januzaj on the left where he put in some his best performances.

Moyles needs to show some balls, get control of the players like he did at Everton, stop being scared of the job he in, get a consistant lineup and make sure he makes the right transfers instead of doing a Liverpool and buying trash like Fellani for too much money. Compare the price of Fellani to Ozil and then decide why was the purchase price of these <£10m apart when quality difference is massive.

This summer is going to need a massive reshovel of the squad. He doesnt need to panic buy, but he does need the spine of the team sorted and the problem just gets worse when players like Vidic are leaving the club.

I expect at least another poor season after this unless something drastic happens... but it doesnt matter who is manager, the situation will be the same. We had a weak team compared to others for a couple of years now and the factor that gave us the edge has retired, which means we are just that. A weak team in comparison to others with a few top players,

Seems like Sherwood has the respect of the players, half the job...more than UTD can say!

Super-Jan overcooked the reaction but there's no denying that there was a headbutt (even though it was an awful, late reaction). I'm struggling to see how so many people can't grasp that, because it was a headbutt (and not a very subtle one at that), it's a straight red all day long. If there hadn't been any contact then fuck Vertonghen off for simulation.

Dnipro played like cunts from the first minute. Time-wasting and diving mostly but there were some nasty fouls in there too. So, fuck them. I don't see them holding on to that Plonker guy in the summer, he's incredible. I get the feeling this tie would've been a *lot* easier had 'pool sorted their shit out and got that deal done in Jan.

If Ashley really wants to get Pardew out of that long contract, a great opportunity just landed in his lap.

True that is easily gross misconduct he could fire him free and easy for that.

Ashley won't fire him though, who would put up with as much bullshit as Pardew and not walk?

Anyway I think this stuff is fucking hilarious, bring back the days of Carroll and Nolan knocking people out in the Bigg Market! ;)

Nice of MOTD to totally ignore 90 minutes of football for a split second incident anyway.

Charlie Adam meant that you can tell because he is a giant cunt.

Penalty is so fucking harsh he was about 8 inches away. Stoke were the only ones who looked like getting the points they knock seven shades of shit out of us for 90 minutes and stopped playing. I hate Mark Hughes and I cunting well hate Stoke what a shit day.

Imagine doing a Pardew headbutt in the pub? You'd get laughed out the place.

And i like how without claiming for a penalty Walters decides the best way to tackle is by throwing two hands in Kos's face. I hate that they get away with it. I hate everyone.

I have seen a mate do an even worse job. In the heat of the moment he forgot he was on crutches went to lay the head on someone but his leg buckled underneath him and he went down. It looked more like he was trying to kiss the guy than hit him. The guy he tried to nut absolutely pissed himself. I would like to say we all ran in to help our friend but I laughed so hard i got stitches :)

I saw several gooners say that they hate Stoke even more than they hate Spurs. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. ;)

I don't mean this in a bad way but i do. Spuds play decent football and we get our fair share of results. Stoke are shit kickers and beat us all the time. Spuds is a friendly banter to me. Stoke fans should be used to train attack dogs.

Well, we're united in our hatred of Stoke (as I think most of the other teams in the prem are). I'll not forget what that talentless cunt Adam did to Paulinho in a hurry.

The FA should deduct 30 points from Stoke for being a set of cunts.
