It's a small club, what Amir says, big problems with the transfer market in Europe, no other big club after a keeper, and they are skint!
Believe me, he's good.
Barthez no longer undisputed no. 1
- Thread starter Dans
- Start date
For a continental goalkeeper that is!

This is very long story I won't talk about here. The Monaco coach, Claude Puel, had reproached him to have kissed the Marseille coach after a Monaco defeat vs Marseille. (The Marseille coach had played with him in Marseille).But Puel has said that his words had been misinterpreted and that he never meant that he was corrupted. Barthez would NEVER do that. As being sympathetic for his French friends, let me laugh. He may have made some mistakes but he always want to win. He would be stupid to risk his reputation and let tropheys to others. And may be lose his number one shirt.

Continental ? Khan, Buffon, Schmeichel etc...are
continental.
Anyway I've read in the Observer website that he wanted to leave.
He had a career before United, and he will have after (if it's true).
But if United wanted to get rid of him, they should have told him BEFORE. He could have found another club. In May, just before the World Cup, Fab had asked Ferguson if all those rumors of new keepers were true. Ferguson had denied the rumors. So the United board has been dishonest. It's not the first time.

Err, where do you see that piece of nonsence?
But to be fair it's not really a story, it relies on nothing.

Yes, you're right, he's not a good keeper.
That's why he has never won a trophey, that's why he plays for a national team, that's why Fergie wanted him to play for United.
Don't judge a player on a few months when he's having a bad pass.

im well behind fab but if he costs us as many games as last season he should be sold
so you think he should be in the team just because hes won stuff in the past?
so really hes just resting on his rep right

How much did Solskjaer cost ?
At first let’s see Ricardo in business, than we can say whether we’ve really got a choice between him and Fabien.

maybe fergie didnt want a new keeper in may but changed his mind once barthez got injured yet again?
oh, btw ... deisler, ballack and ze roberto cost about 7-8m each ... they must be shite, eh?
the transfer fee says feck all about the quality of a player ...

I thought Ballack and Ze Roberto moved on a Bosman?

Shearer, the best English striker???????
Maybe the game was missing a Kenny Burns, Jim Holton, Dave Watson or a Norman Hunter during that period. Shearer is a slow,rush,push and roughen type of striker in which anyone one of those defenders mentioned above can deal with him easily. Put Roy keane on him and he will looked mousely and will resort to some heavy accented bad words to irritate Keane. There was a mention to bring back Shearer to the England's team and it would mean bringing back the standard of the English team.

Its good news that there is no clear favorite
for the No 1 jersey!!! They are all good players and this will make them more determined to play well to push SAF to play them again?????
P.S Do you think this is the reason Giggs is not a his best at the moment, No real contender to push him????????
