@Taz, are you for real about the FIFA report? Shit, that must have been a typo, maybe they meant he was one of the top 3 players GOING to the world cup, otherwise such a report would require a commission of inquiry just to investigate the report!

That said, I guess when you're England's captain you shoulder a heavier burden than the rest of the team...

The Mersey siders will be jeering him with every touch of the ball, and players like Jagielka have already stated they'll try to get under his skin...it'll be a trying time for him kesho but he'll definitely play.

If he let's it get to him then he's in for a long day...if he shuts it out and plays his game...well then, he'll score just like he did against the Swiss

@youcan't, I think that's what that Ugandan would call a Fullu Fullu Condition.

@Taz,
It's the weakest Man U i have seen in many years and it looks like they are up for a couple of thrashing.Weak defence,weak and aged midfield and no striking power and neither is the bench any good....sad.

It was foolhardy for SAF to field a carling cup looking squad for the first CL game, Liverpool on Sunday or not! Despite Rangers looking for a result from 5 defenders, the perfomance shows the lack of depth Man Utd has this season...I shudder to think of what will happen if we were to meet Barca again with the likes of Evans - we'll be torn apart like Panathanikos

As for EPL, bado ni mapema, I think we can bounce back this Sunday against an unconvincing Liverpool (hoepfully SAF will not experminet again with the squad!) but we cannot afford to drop silly points again with Chelsea not looking likely to do so soon.

Funny, at the beginning of the season O'shea said Man Uts cannot afford to drop silly points - then they went ahead and did exactly that!
