If United win the treble then I will suck my router.

Do buy your next router from my company. I can give you a big discount.

Why do Liverpool always have a game in hand?

Because they always fail to qualify directly for Europe and have to play these tinky-tonky games. Oh well, nice goal by Voronin nevertheless.

Bit extreme, selling our best player? Also, remember that at around eight years ago (1999) we drew our first two games and ended the season with....The Treble!!

eight years ago means nothing. The Premiership is much harder and tougher now with the other teams also improving their squads.

Maybe from Liverpool but Chelsea losing many of their best players for a long spell means that this season they will be less competitive.

@evo i completely agree, we're going to draw against city and win the quadruple

 

[evertonfan]

Anybody realised that all of Everton's goalscorers this season have been English? Okay Anichebe may be in the process of pledging his allegiances to Nigeria, but he's still English for now!

Is John Obi Mikle going ot the African cup fo nations because i heard he was such a (insert rude word) that Nigeria(?) didn't want him

Can someone tell me what last season has to do with Man Utd's form this season?

I still believe we can win the league, but giving Chelskovski a four point start wasn't a good idea. We definitely should've beaten Portsmouth, but that's the way of it. Tevez looked damn good in the first half, but faded a bit thereafter, probably needs a couple of games to really get going. Another tough game on Sunday!

Chelsea always scrape a non-deserved victory because of some flukey late goal.

 

[MasterBlaster76]

Indeed. The worrying thing is that's exactly what they kept doing when they won the title. Also, did you see that Scholes goal yesterday? Why the hell didn't he shoot against Reading? He had two or three chances just like that, yet he passed instead of shooting. I mean, how many times has Scholesy just let fly from there and it ends up in the top corner?

What did you think of Tevez yesterday?

By the way, nice one, Ronaldo! Now we're without you and Rooney for a few games!

 

[Leicester Fox]

I'm going to the ciddy game on sunday!!! Look out for me because i'll be one of the only people we know in their end Going with some of their fans so i'm not going to risk going in united colours. Staying with the city fans the day before the game too and the night after. The night after will be brilliant of horrible, but nobody needs panic, I'll still be able to get onto PC and gloat about our magnificent 5 points in 3 games, I hope...

You obviously dont rate your router

Yeah I know what you mean about Scholesy, he seems to have gone into his shell in the recent past as far as shooting from outside the box goes.

Tevez looked impressive, from what I saw on MOTD, he was sharp, perhaps could have scored but still did well.

Look out for me because i'll be one of the only people we know in their end

You'll be easy to spot in the city end, they aint exactly got many fans. The council house is never full!

We'll miss Drogba the most, although both Pizzaro and Kalou have done well so far. Makelele would cover in well for Essien, and as far as Mikel is concerned we have enough options in Ballack and Sidwell.

I expect both Ballack and Sheva to turn on the style this season.:hpraise

 

[Leicester Fox]

I expected us to win our first 2 games too...
Hopefully our new signings will settle a lot quicker than those 2, don't think nani or Anderson will but tevez was playing here last year and when he gets that first goal i reckon we could see a few more.

 

[MasterBlaster76]

Tevez really impressed me in the first half. He was everywhere and he even got back to tackle occasionally. I think we've made a terrific signing there and when he gets his first, there'll be no stopping him.

In terms of results United have had a poor start, I don't need to tell people that. However, both performances have been pretty good. Reading put everyone behind the ball, and credit to them, they stuck to their game plan and got a result out of it. At Portsmouth we totally dominated and deserved all 3. But, this is football, these things happen.

Don't read into it though. Wouldn't suprise me if we drew again on Sunday, but United will be up there come mid May.
