I don't think I would really mind if we can get Arshavin in as he will add a different dimension to our play because of his technical abilities. However, on the flip side of things, getting another player who becomes 30 year old later this year is not really a wise move considering we already have a bunch of 30s in our team.
Damn im surprised Arshavin is that old. I always thought he was somewhere between 25-27, ah well.
But even so i reckon Chelsea can get a few good years out of him. You guys bought Ballack when he was 29/30 as well.
Andy Gray has been sacked by Sky Sports. Good riddance, came out with a load of bollocks the majority of the time. Surely Richard Keys has to follow?
'I am in full support of Andy Gray what he said was in private and was his buisness not the publics. It is completely unfair that tv shows such as loose woman are allowed to be blatently sexist towards men week in week out on live tv on a widely watched tv channel teaching young girls that is is okay to be sexist towards men. LovearantLAD'
Amen.
Anyway, I have nothing against Andy Gray but there's a quote in Fifa 11 that annoys me every time I hear it, when the commentators are blathering on about 'going to work, being fortunate to watch the games and doing their best to enjoy them' - not any more, Mr Gray! Not any more!!
As for the actual football..
1st half Blackpool took advantage of the awful Gibson in midfield. Completely overran midfield battle (clearly missed carrick) and well in control 1st half. The change after half time made the difference, Utd were much better at controlling the ball, and took advantage of the awful Blackpool defending.
He's a decent passer but it's unlikely he'll become a regular for us. At the moment, he's just there as a fresh pair of legs. Wouldn't be surprised to see him sold at the end of the season.Seriously though, what can Gibson offer to this Man United midfield? The only thing that he seems to keep on doing is shooting from distance. Other than his some spectacular long range goals, I'm not really sure what to make of his contribution to the team.
