Even before we get those fixtures, let me begin by confidently predicting that it'll be out year.

Wonder if there's any truth in this

 

'Manchester United made a sensational world-record £100million bid to hijack Gareth Bale's move from Spurs to Real Madrid,' claim the Mirror.

 

'Mirror Sport can reveal Welsh flier Bale even flew back from Spain to hold talks with United officials, who were desperate to help new boss David Moyes make a blue-chip signing.'

BBC seems to say we were 'on top' for long periods.

 

Take it away Mr. Blobfish!

In other matches, one of the Spurs defenders managed to pull the Villa striker's shorts down in the box and the guy didn't get a penalty.

Can Anderson do much apart from:

 

- be rubbish at football

- pull funny faces

- do silly dances

 

?

 

He does a good gurn. I suppose that comes under 'pulls funny faces'.

He's totally useless on the pitch though.

 

Rio had a nightmare last night.

Less than a week on from their 4-1 hammering at the hands of Manchester City, United were desperate for three points and West Brom appeared to offer the perfect fixture, with the Baggies without a win over United since 1984 and none at Old Trafford since December 1978.

 

Well they sure didn't play like they were desperate for the points!

 

:grandpa:

Great game!

 

I don't think ManYoo have scored in the league from open play since the opening game.

Three free kicks from Rooney and that dodgy penna. The Hernandez goal in the LC against Liverpool was also from a corner.

We haven't Mr Wiggles. Pretty outrageous isn't it?

 

Not really compared to employing Joe Kinnear or Paulo di Canio. ;)

 

You have to give Moyes a proper go and its very early days, but I reckon he should have kept on Fergie's coaches and put out the impression that he would be hands off for the time being. If I were him, I'd have just put out some "I'm observing and learning" type PR and let Phelan and the others take any heat.

I agree.

 

Some of his team decisions though. :confused:

 

And Mr Big Hair ain't exactly oozing his price tag is he. Ended up a striker again if I remember at the end. I was a bit annoyed and not perhaps paying 100% attention.

 

Just goes to show though how important a figure Sir Fergs was. Miss him.
