Fa are jokes, what a surprise.

CB is our most stocked position, its fine. And we need an alternative to mikel, not a replacement. We need quantity. Didn't say he doesn't have a place, just wouldn't feel comfortable with him being our only option. Cole doesn't have long left (apparently) and I don't feel bertrand is any more than a backup. Everything behind bertrand is not confidence inspiring.

2 center halves! Then we'll have ... 6! for two positions. Defence is the least of our worries. Perhaps LB only. (Not that big on bertrand sorry). Defense is our most stocked position.

You told him twice and he still doesn't get it, and still mentions comments about motivation. Lost cause.

No one wants to say anything, because what's the point? Someone will say pro, he will get the same tired arguments thrown back. You will counter the same tired arguments, you will get thrown more bs. I will quote when someone else said he was totally isolated in midfield, someone will probably give me some silly answer rehashing the same old sh*t. I will say mata let yaya toure have the freedom of wembley on the first goal, im sure someone will give me a gif of mikel. I will mention how bad the whole team looked, but look at the only active player thread on this site. That's all you need to know. There's no point arguing. All he does is pass sideways and lose the ball etc. etc. Fire away

I enjoyed kicking united out of the second cup of the season immensely.

Not challenging for the league is a problem far , far deeper than the inclusion of mikel in the squad.

And we could have gone on to do more if ref did his job properly. Us all over them and them down to ten men would make a massive difference, terrible start or not.

chris foy is a joke of a ref

You jump in right at the end and come with rubbish. Read back. People have been trying to discuss and get hit with a wall of pure idiocy and unjustified hate. Then you come in with your opinion as if it matters more than anyone elses. Well done.

You utter plank. At the time he was one of the hottest young talents. No matter how his career went the optimism for him THEN cannot be used against him NOW. No one has said that about him NOW, and you just continue to bring it up but I'm sorry to say you're not making anyone but yourself look like a complete idiot.

@Lane it was 6 years ago. 6. If you are going to hold someone talking up a young player against them a whole 6 years later then you've got problems. Hell mikel doesn't even play in the same position now as he did then.

This thread was started 6 years ago you utter plank.

Don't let some good ol facts and actual quotes stop your constant ad hominems right? Only idiots like posts who use common sense.

One game totally nullifies his long string of good performances. Ok. Also, he has blocked crosses, and he isn't the only one who has failed to do so either. On the hands behind his back thing, if it hits his arm its a pen or free kick? How is keeping his arms out the way NOT a good thing?

Guy got pushed over by oscar. He should be embarassed

greatest most entertaining team in the world get through with 2 draws -.-

He deleted the tweet

So now we wait to hear about the new contract he will sign. see: Toure.

Ballack was in all the promos of the new kit and he wasn't here the following season IRC. Think Kalou also modelled this gold kit?

Im getting dared to order it before I've seen it. I dont think this is a good thing...

Friedel is very close to the end of his career, so not really the same as Cech who would go on to be number 1 at any top club.

And I would obviously mean when he played. But see this childish bullsh*t? This is why this thread is a waste of time.

Are you schizophrenic SFL? You replied to my post twice now. Ad hominem attack isn't going to make me take you more seriously anyway. No one mentioned those two games but you are just rolling with it.

Dunno what more you want anyone to say. Everyone admits he had a bad game, some say it was no worse than others on the pitch. No point getting involved in trying to talk to people so set in the he is terrible for years camp. Where were all of you the past couple weeks where he has been one of the better players? You guys have won, no one is bothering to try get involved in the conversation anymore =/
