have to ask why o'shea is giving beckham a five-knuckle shuffle though?
Pugh : (mind thought) I heard Becks was little down below but Damn!!
Ah!! O'Shea disguised as Danny Pugh then. Does that explain it!?
O Shea, rather! <img src="graemlins/houllier.gif" border="0" alt="[Houllier]" />Do you think Beckham uses gell or Hairspray to keep that wealth of hair together??
When he did his interview after the match if was as if he had just walked out of a Peter marks

O'shea is actually Peter Kay's son. Being Irish n'all.
Poor sod,takes him 27 games to score and when he finally does he has the humiliation of Becks rubbing his privates across his back .... <img src="graemlins/nervous.gif" border="0" alt="[Nervous]" /> <img src="graemlins/nono.gif" border="0" alt="[No No]" />

I'm sure if it had been teddy you'd be happy
Speaking of pictures telling a thousand stories, does anyone have a picture of Eric scoring and subsequently goading all the monkeys at Elland road?
man you can't even see forlan's face in that picture....the press just wanted beck's smug smile on their front cover...
No in fairness now to Bex he was first over to Diego and he seemed to be so genuinely happy that Forlan scored - Bex is a top bloke no matter what anyone says. He might be married to a chick who desires the public eye to fuel her ever dwindling and talentless effort at being something she's not, but I'm sure Bex was encouraging Forlan all along. He has always come across as a good natured bloke.
Fair play to ya man
Fair play to ya man
Donaldinho, don't let them confuse you!
You were right the first time - it's Pugh ( see shorts bearing no.26 - unless they switched shorts!
<img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" />
Didnt' know Pugh played though ... good for him ... CL experience at such a tender age

calm down pugh, u'll be a star someday, someday
Like Donaldinho said, being a new player & never having shared the common bath with Becks b4, Pugh just had to find out for himself whether the press reports were true!
Oh, & I half-expected to see May in the photo congratulating Forlan!

Has someone superimposed Karel Poborsky's head on to Forlans shoulders??

Agreed. That's probably what I most liked about that game. After all the talk of rifts in the squad, etc. in a won game many of them (e.g. Becks, Veron) actually seemed to be putting even more effort than earlier into it in order to give Diego scoring opportunities (Veron even seemed to be more concerned about tackling and winning the ball back the closer the final whistle was with the Duck still standing).
Sorry to sound a discordant note but I didn`t get a warm, fuzzy feeling that apparently other posters did from Diego`s penalty.
Fact is - we blew 7 million on him when we have one or two lads in our squad that should be out on the pitch scoring goals.
Fact is - we didn`t pay that money for Diego to score penalties. We paid for him to get among the goals when the ball is in play. I fear that photo is going to come back to haunt a few people - yay, Diego scored a penalty against an obscure Israeli football team but cannot get his act together in the Premiership.
Sorry, this photo might come to rest in the Poborsky type photo files - he came but he didn`t score.

GIGGSGIRL - On the count of three FECKOFF will ya ? - cuz you're talking utter BULL, like all the other Diego Forlan knockers on this site and I'm bloody sick of it. United fans are taking a different shade these days and I think it is as a direct result of their slump in form. The day trippers are being spotted like nothing on earth.
Read the followin if you care:
FACT - Diego Forlan has played the equivalent of 7 games for United since he moved from South American to North England
FACT - Ruud Van Nistlerooy has not scored a goal from open play this season in the Premiership and he has played 7 FULL games in the space of 1 and a half months - and for the record you might recall him costing a lot more than Diego Forlan. If you're going to Bitch, than at least Bitch in context to reality. Get on Ruuds back if you're going to get on Diego's - Oh and Ole's also !
If you knew ANYTHING about football outside the lifting of Trophies, players legs and the piss up celebration after the triumph, you would see Forlan has the following assets:
1. He's so quick
2. He works like a deamon on the field
3. He constantly makes runs and is available
4. He has a powerful shot
5. He is an excelent passer and has great vision
6. He has a great first touch
7. He more often than not plays the right ball
8. He gives the ball away very seldomley
9. He has natural hunger
......but aside from all of this he hasn't scored 18 goals in 7 matches so he's worth nothing I guess.
Two words giggsgirl
"FECK + OFF"
........you MUPPET !
It's people like you who were calling for Andrew Cole's head in his first season at Old Trafford.

Ha, ha, ha, haven`t had such a good laugh since seeing Arsene Wenger`s face on tv as United thumped 6 past the Arse at Old Trafford!
Before you start twisting your little self in knots over other people`s measured opinions
(of course yours are SO credible, relying as they do on huge generalisations, misinformation, inability to actually read other poster`s words in context and the mature, well thought out resort to baby cries of `Feck off, feck off`), you might like to start with these simple facts.
If can read properly (which seems very doubtful - I am a teacher and would offer to help you if you were someone who actually possessed some reasoning abilities) you will find that I have never criticised Andy Cole for his performances. In a number of postings this year I have actually praised Andy and pointed out what a good player he was.
You don`t have time to read all the postings on this board by people you want to slag off? Fine - then don`t slag them off until you have researched what they actually have written.
As for Diego, there are ways of expressing a genuine opinion on a player`s performance and there are knife jobs done on players by glory hunters. You won`t find me writing off our lads just because they have been mediocre this year compared to their usual very high standards.
However, you WILL find me expressing an opinion that is reasonably held by a number of posters on this board. Diego is not cutting it at present, irrespective of the 7 or so games. He has been a good player in other environments but I don`t think he is suited to the Premiership, just as Karel Poborsky was not and just as a number of other United players were not.
As you clearly have a problem understanding written English I will point out that my postings have been concerned with this fact and the fact that Sir Alex should be trying some of our young strikers who have come up through the ranks. As for the photo after Diego scored a penalty - yes, he scored a goal but it was a dead ball one. Another team mate could have taken that penalty and scored.
I want to see Diego getting among the goals. If he goes for many games without a goal then there is little point in playing him instead of someone else who could get among the goals. As for Ruud, he is not going through a productive patch but at least he and Ole are known goal scorers. They have proved themselves before. Diego has yet to and I think Webber should be given a chance.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the most amusing post I have read in a while. Hysteria never proves the point it wants to - all it does is show up an irrational, childish tantrum for what it is. Please reply - I will enjoy seeing what irrational depths you can plumb further. Oh and don`t forget to cry again, `Feck off, Feck off.`

Oh and yeah............just summarise what you wrote will you, I'm really not arsed reading it all. I saw all the <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" /> faces at the bottom and assumed you had resorted to a piss take.

Very Poor sentence structure. Overelaborateness in high quantity, filled with a lot of Jargon. Could possibly have been put into one decent sentence ? You'll be getting a D grade for that one young lady.

Bad sentence structure once again. Take note that usage of the word "YOU" between "If" & "Read" would have made all the difference. No point in talking about what you have written 1 year ago. I believe I responded to a post you wrote in the past 30 minutes, which inevitably means I can only extract what you wrote there and then and comment on it. See my above post and perhaps try reading it again ? Great exercise if you haven't grasped an arguement first time around.

Em.........you just did. You have stamped a seal on Forlan's fate. He has no future according to you - Oh you're ruthless. Do you treat your students like this ? Are you in the army ? Come on be honest, we're all friend here.

Very very poor point, lacking weight and substance. I'm surprised that a teacher would make such a statement and expect a response, however I guess I'll try and make sense of your point (even though I may have difficulties along with all that other things you gently suggested

Unfunny personal shot that really has no significance in this arguement to begin with, given the clear fact that the above statement makes no clear or rational sense. Needless to say it's equally unture <img src="graemlins/yawn.gif" border="0" alt="[Yawn]" />

Oh, so crying `Feck off, feck off` would prove my ability to `have a good time`?
Maybe your job is laying red herrings as you still haven`t explained your dummy spit against a post that doesn`t happen to think Diego Forlan is the answer to providing goals for Manchester United.
I like the way you took my reply seriously, laddie, to the point of pretending to analyse it and expose its supposed literary shortcomings. But you didn`t answer my initial questioning of why the hysterical reaction, including cries of `Bitch`, `Muppet` and `Daytripper`. Not to mention that wonderful last resort of those who really have nothing to say: `Feck Off`.
Oh, and please find those postings where allegedly I slag off Andy Cole. I think you will be searching for a very, very, very long time if you expect to find them. But you don`t really want to engage in debate, do you? If that were the case you would let others make points without spitting your dummy. Sorry, I have to log off now as the internet is sky high in cost where I live. Otherwise I would enjoy continuing this.
