Fergie, A Man With A Crystal Ball Who Saw The Future And Got Out At The Right Time

[joeluke]

He saw the future at ManU and it didn't look too clever - and how right he was!

Ageing players either injury prone/past their best (or both) - Vidic, Ferdinand, Evra, Carrick, Giggs

Younger players not good enough quality compared to when United were top dogs - Rafael, Jones, Smalling, Cleverley, Evans, Wellbeck, Hernandez

(Jones and Smalling are supposed to be Uniteds future central defensive partnership, if that's the case and they are good enough why are they both constantly played out of position - Jones in centre midfield and Smalling at right back)?

Expensive signings who flopped - Nani, Young, Kagawa

I can see ManU 'doing a Liverpool' - years as top dogs followed by years of mediocrity

The heart bleeds :-)

Gromit, stop looking to the past and look towards your grim, grey future. Saying that, you'll probably get three points tonight! Depends if Arsenal show any cahones! Here's hoping.
COYG!

well i fancied arseynal to win 2-1 but i have just heard on the radio that manchester has been put on red alert for the weather this afternoon


i honestly can't remember ever hearing we are on weather red alert before
( well not on the station i have on )

Its easy to be arrogant when you are winning. Its nice to see a little payback.

Some years ago I was staying in a hotel & the Manure team rolled up demanding food when the restaurant was closed.
'Isn't that really annoying' I said to one of the waiters & he replied - 'not really, they haven't a clue what we do to their food' as he walked off laughing.

Dr Filth, what's the weather in Manchester go to do with anything?

[DrFilth]

have another read of my post dave as i have posted i have never heard of us being on red alert and a couple of weeks back a few games were abandoned due to the weather so if this storm is as bad as they say expect anything

they had to stop the game here due to the weather

But the game is at Arsenal, so still don't see what the weather in Manchester has to do with anything???????

[DrFilth]

thought the match was up here i might have to up it to a 3-1 win to your lot


or should i go for 4 -)

[DrFilth]

thanks for posting just checked city are at home so i must go

[davetuc]

I don't think there will be much in it either way. Two nervous teams, both scared of losing for different reasons. Arsenal need some sort of performance after Saturday, as a lot of fans are getting fed up with the lack of spending, lack of tactical changes (before and during games), and lack of pace and desire. This all goes back a long time. Manure just desperately need points!

[DrFilth]

you havin a laff after the liverpool game they will be out for a win and will not be letting goals in
