Can you take Phillipe Senderdross back as well. This guy isn't even fit to play for Crotonese let alone Milan.
I was truly happy when he left Arsenal, until I found out it was only a loan, I knew there was no way that Milan would keep him:mad:

Why do you always post this crap about speculation. The finally time, Fergie only sells players when "he" wants to.

As stated "Of course, manager Sir Alex Ferguson would have to be willing to part with one of his outstanding performers as well"
Not always, my dear Becks, not always.

It may not be Fergie's decision to make, Malcolm Glazer is in poor health and has taken a financial beating. If he should expire it isn't certain what Joel Glazer's intentions are. Directors within the Glazer's holding company want to sell off the increasing expensive sports concerns to concentrate on the family's core business. Of course there is always the Arabs to consider - so this may be merely speculation.

You mean the game that was originally called Football and is still called it by most of the planet?

Or the game that barely involves the foot at all and is only referred to it that way in 1 and almost 2 countries?

Nice win by 'Pool don't get me wrong...but they are still 4 pts behind and ManU have a game in hand. I would like to see it come down to the wire, but I cant see how ManU will piss away that many points...

United were fackin dire today.

The backline were god awful and Pool capitalized on school boy errors.

Still 4 points up in the league with a game in hand. But, this was a terrible result. Last time United conceded 4 goals to Liverpool at home was in 1932.

I'm gutted... :(

Man U will have to lose 3 out of 10 games while Chelski or 'Pool will have to win all 9 games. Considering that Manu have only lost three league games in the past 13 months and the only teams to beat them in that period are 'Pool and Arsenal, it ain't going to happen.

I am not sure that United's backline is that bad, it's just that Rio and Vidic are not that quick. It is not usually a problem because few teams attack them with speed. Most teams go to Old Traf and park the bus. Chelski attacks more with power than speed and ManU handles them well. However, 'Pool and Arsenal attack with speed hence the problems ManU has with those two teams. I mean, if Pepe and Cannavaro can't handle Torres and Gerrard not sure ManU is expected to fare better. I wouldn't necessarily blame ManU's backline back line, however 'Pool has provided a blueprint on how to attack them, the only problem is whether any team has the cohones to try it.

The EPL is using Italian child labour laws against Serie A.

In Italy a talented teenager cannot sign a professional contract until he is 18, in England it's 16. The EPL has used this rule to sign a number of Italy's top prospects of which Man United has been particularly active. They signed Giuseppe Rossi from Parma, Davide Petacci ( whom is considered to be the next Andrea Pirlo) from Roma and Federico Macheda from Lazio. Today Fast Freddy (who's almost a full year younger than Balotelli) saved United's bacon by scoring the winning goal against Aston Villa.

This proves that the Italian Primavera is in rude good health; on paper the Under-21 team looks stronger than the senior Azzurri.

Platini is looking at stopping this in the future.

When you are European and World Club Champions the referee gives you the benefit of the doubt and ManUnited got it at the 92th minute with a free kick given by the silly ref. Fortunately Giggs shot high and Porto were sparred a gross injustice.

Gunners fans:

If you wish to be considered a major player again, and cast down The Axis of Evil (Blues, United, City) you must sign Sebastian Frey in the summer. No other player can impact the quality of your club like the world class Frenchman can. Reymond Domenench does not think so; Due to the coach's opinion France is having a rough time qualifying for South Africa. And they are in a weak group.

Couldn't agree more, Gunners, in a addition to a world class GK, also need a world class CB and defensive midfielder. So Frey, Chiellini and Senna and we are sorted out.
