Youth Update
One of those Brazillians has been brought on loan.
Also got a 18 minute highlight reel of the infamous Ravel Morrison.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
Yeah, exactly.
There is also Pepe Reina and Maarten Stekelenburg who are linked with United too in certain corners. I forgot about them.
I'm not a big fan of Stekelenburg and wouldn't be in favour of this move but in some ways, him replacing van der Sar as the current Dutch national team goalkeeper and another fpr,er Ajax player would be the most 'natural' transition in a way.
Don't think the Reina thing will happen either. Probably just press BS.
Lots of candidates then, interesting to see what happens. I don't know about you guys but I'm very interested in this whole search for #1 goalkeeper thing and how it all develops.
Of course there is even the slim but alternative possibility that a current Man Utd GK will get a chance to be #1. Don't see that happening though and in my opinion, that would be a bad decision. United need a proper keeper after van der Sar. Otherwise they will suffer just as Arsenal have.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
Agree, we need a real 'no 1' keeper. Lindegaard has been alright in reserves and when he's featured, but that's too big a risk to take. I think he's just a happy no 2.
I'd be very surprised if it's Llrois. Great keeper, but very little press interest.
It looks like the De Gea bid was real, so that really might be what we do. I worry about age, moving away from home and settling into Manchester, but who knows. Maybe he's a big fan

He's a massive Van Der Sar fan so that makes sense. He'd probably be my 2nd choice behind Neuer so I'd be happy with De Gea.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
Just occurred to me that Rafael, O'Shea, Evans and Brown are out for tomorrow. Not sure who is going to be at right back, but it's guaranteed to be someone that hasn't played there this season before. Sigh.
Anderson, Park and Vida are back. So some good news, at least at the top end of the pitch. I'm guessing it's going to be:
---------------VDS--------------
---Fabio---Smalling-Vida-Evra---
--------Carrick--Gibson---------
--------------Giggs-------------
---Valencia----------Rooney-----
------------Berbatov------------

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
United simply aren't good for my health or emotions.
Part of the reason why I absolutely love being a United fan though. Never give up, never in doubt (yeah right
), and results have fallen for us perfectly.
Just slightly more believable now that we'll finally overtake Liverpool league title wise.

I still don't think the title is ours, but what a performance. We were immense in the second half, looked properly good. And that's with a central midfield of Carrick and Gibbo, and a back 4 of Fabio, Smalling, Vida and Giggsy!

Just because its Rooney...it IS a big story...I mean c'mon players swear all the time when they scored a cracking or an important goal as such.
It was simply unbelievable how we still got that mentality of never giving up.Most parts of the first half I was thinkin, back then we had a team of capable to come back even from 3 goals down...can we do it again with this team? Man I was proven wrong...GGMU!!

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
If the FA ban Rooney for swearing they will, in my eyes, simply have proven that they are corrupt. Not towards anyone team, but to producing a product worth watching as the season ends. They will show that they are willing to abuse their position to act in a biased manner to try and make a title race worth following. There is simply no other excuse.
If you'd like to ban Rooney for swearing after following a goal, I expect the FA to do so for all subsequent players who swear when in the heat of emotion, adrenaline and so forth. So if they miss a shot. If they're fouled badly. If one of their teammates doesn't pass them the ball. And I expect the FA to also have a dictionary available so that we can punish all other outbursts of emotion in any language.
Punishing a player for scoring a hat trick in a crucial match. Can a fan of any other team honestly say they believe this would happen to any of their players?

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
And, yet again, one rule for United, one rule for everyone else. Wayne Rooney becomes, by my reckoning, the first person in football to be charged for cursing at no one. Lovely.
I hope he withdraws from the England squad. England don't support him, the FA don't support him - I saw f*ck em. He doesn't need it, all he ever gets is criticism anyway. And hell, all the pundits are saying England will be better without him. Let them find out. This country disgusts me.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
I also applaud the continually chanting, during every minute of every match for the rest of the season of 'What f*cking what'.
I'm physically angered by the hypocrisy and double standards when it comes to dealing with United. Ashley Cole f*cking shot someone, Mario Balotelli deliberately punctured a youth player with a dart and not a peep. But Wayne curses AT NO ONE IN PARTICULAR and will likely miss the FA cup semi final.
You know what? I hope United don't play. I'd rather lose and deny the FA that revenue and their big day out.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
The point is not whether or not he did something stupid. He did. The point is that he is being punished using a rule that no one else has ever been punished for.
The rule, if you took time to read it, doesn't state 'if the player does this to a cameraman or to the wider TV audience, then a ban is appropriate' it states you can't use abusive, foul language on the pitch.
There is only one law. Either every single player in the history of the game has broken it and Rooney is the only one banned, or the FA can mould the rules however they want to suit their agenda. Which, in this case, is to punish him for getting away with the elbow, and to ensure the run in is as close as possible.

to be honest i haven´t seen any player in premier league swearing in to the cameras except him...maybe some remember other players do so...
i think the ban is appropriate as if it was every other player who did it..it just happen´s to be Rooney..
the thing you say about FA want to make run in PL close is imo riddicilous..

Pippa 23, come on be serious, there's been plenty of times someone has sworn into a camera before, whether it's been on the pitch or in a post match interview.
Only difference is this is Rooney and united. You've been hoodwinked by the media
