Luiz. He actually wanted to win it.

Lucky goals are better than no goals.

We really don't, sorry. One signing won't be enough to make us competitive at all.

Yeah. Would anyone take him at chelsea? He does well with a sh*t squad considering so wonder what he could do with a good one.

Meh, I think midfield in general not just DM needs more squad players. As I said we have something stupid like 17 outfield players. We can have like 25(?) and then still kids. Even if Romeu wasn't injured. Be it Diame be it whatever but when we bring bertrand on to play in midfield something isn't right.

Huh? 3 cb's out and they could still field 2 full time cb's of course they won't, didn't stop the club from still buying smalling and then jones a season later. They had a massive injury crisis and STILL could field a capable team. We have 2 midfielders and 1 striker out and our squad is almost at its limit. How is it comparable? Then you want to replace them with kids who have no top flight experience and expect to RELY on them. Don't talk about the past, in the current reality we need squad players and you don't have to be a spoilt fan to see that. We have something stupid like 17 outfield players. We are playing 21 year olds for 90 minutes 2/3 times a week because they have no one to rotate with. Factoring in form, fatigue etc and we have laughably small options.

Cahill and Luiz are CB's and should never be played in midfield. We lost Romeu, so we have mikel and lamps and ramires to play the 'holding' roles of midfield. Mikel is suspended/going away, romeu is out for the season leaving TWO players for two positions. One more injury and its tickets. We need bodies. We haven't needed bodies for the past month, we've needed it for like 2 years. We've had to play OHM to death because we have no suitable backups that will do a job. We have an amazing first 11 and hardly anything to come off the bench to change up a game or provide reliable backup to rest players. We have deep defensive options and that's about it. Your united reference doesn't hold any weight. They have a deep enough squad, they already spent the money. Just because they already spent the money and don't need to now doesn't prove that you don't need to spend money now to compete.

Public opinion can be derived from the top comments on random news articles? Interesting.

Because our midfield options are thin

Its a trophy, lets win it. Also we then get to wear patches on our shirts, showing everyone we won it. We got the CL winners badge for 6 games, we'd get to show this one off far more.

african cup of nations

He is doing coaching badges so more than zenden

He'd probably be more useful than bolo f**king zenden

I hope our scouts don't base players value on one game. Then again we got torres so maybe they do.

We'll see how many top sides are interested in jan, because none were in the summer and I doubt its changed.

Someone also threw a drugs test, but Rio managed to dodge it. (from twitter)

except real

You watched many manc derbies?

rooney mis hits it in.

Was hazard that poor? Nearly everything up the left side was going through him.

And that makes up for it ?

The united home league game, look at who bustled the team back to play like we knew they could after a horror start. Then tell me that guy couldn't captain a dinghy.

I never said he wasn't under pressure when he gets the ball.

Yeah. His buyout has been advertised and advertised. "Hurry up fellas, last day! Would be a shame of someone stole him away for such a low amount wink wink nudge nudge". And no one has bitten. Not one club. So I'm not sure its such a 'no brainer' to buy him.

You guys will never be happy. I'm just saying have a chuckle that our terrible striker has more goals than these world beaters without ruining it for yourself by digging down into endless stats and reasoning about why we should still be miserable. Its a tongue in cheek stat, No one is going to use the stat to prove anything, have a chuckle then move on. Let people have one nice thing.
