Mental fatigue, besides physical rest, requires one to stay away from football for a period of time as a form of recovery. No, Saha's body is breaking down. No, demanding Campbell to score at the Premiership is like asking a rookie to perform at an Olympic pool. No, Ronaldo is a goal scoring winger, not a 9 or 10.

You see problems.

I see opportunities.

I feel like Morgan Freeman in that movie Shawshank Redemption, and him continually having his parole appeals declined is like me coming on here to see if we've signed a striked yet. In the end I'll just be nonchalant about the thing and find out two day later on Talksport that we've signed him...

Noodlehairs' playing Andy Dufraine when he's overpowered by those white guys...

Another analogy: Sometimes I feel like it's the weather forecast. I want to get out of house for a task, so I look out of the window and notice some dark clouds looming, not all, so I check the weather forecast website for a confirmation, but the forecast changes. Levy is like the dark clouds, you don't know if it's going to pour or not, it just hangs in the horizon. The weather forecast is like the I.T.K., Press and fans - lots of banter and speculation but most of the time they get it wrong.

If it wasn't for Shay Given he would have come away with a gold.

Every time United unable to beat BlackBurn, surely Brad Fidel is not the sole reason, isn't it? Bottom line: Cannot blame Keeper.

Haha, this is the Premiership, a lot is at stake, not a training ground, or some economics 101 theory.

What are you on about?
 
Berbatov has made his own luck. Instead of moving to United in 2006 when we were interested, he decided to choose Tottenham. Now it may be too late for him to make his dream move and he may be stuck to a club that won't even play in CL for the rest of his career.

To be fair, the answer on Shav Given is addressed to robthered.

Then, what are you on about opportunity?

Opportunity to give Campbell the chance to develope among some of the best players in the world.

Opportunity to let Ronaldo play more central in some games.

Opportunity to rest Rooney or Tevez WHEN Saha is fit.

He has played up front at times, alongside either Rooney or Tevez. But he can still drift out wide when he needs to. Rooney, Ronaldo and Tevez are all very flexible players. I do believe that signing another forward is important but Ronaldo has shown that he can do a good job up front.

The must-sign-a-striker brigade has decided he can't.
 
We don't need a striker.

We don't need to score goals.

So, if we assume he'll manage that this season, that means 10 games rests each for Tevez and Rooney, which is plenty.

Indeed, along with Campbell and Ronaldo playing a few times up there, and probably Rooney/Tevez up front on their own in a few matches.

Campbell has pace and a body-feint trick, but not enough vision to thread the ball into the net consistently as it requires games and experience for it. I repeat: the Premiership is not a training ground. How many times can you allow a young player to make mistakes?

Ronaldo's dribbling is part step-over, part pace, not orthodox like e.g. Messi, who can negotiate out of tight, tricky space around him. You can mark Ronaldo out of the game by allowing a pacy defender to study his movement, and doubled-team on him if necessary. Ronald is most dangerous when coming in from deep. Remember the game against Fulham when opponents were unable to mark him in a sea of players as he came from now where - cue Roma - and his vision allowed him to let fly a ball into the net. Wonder how he has got his vision, may be from Boring's 101 theory book.

Saha has said he even tried alternative medicine too, and now what? Four major competitions with two strikers on the duty roster? Remember mental fatigue syndrome means a loss of form.

His best role is as an auxiliary striker, or coming from deep, just like Scholes in the old days. See above.

Duty roster?
Mental fatigue?
Fly the ball into the net?

Still, your post was just a lot of waffle. Filled with negaitivity.

A negative waffle.

The waffle I had for lunch was much nicer.

Waffle is made of flour, not easy for digestion, and it makes Boring a candidate ripe for mental constipation too. :p

Berbatov has been included in the Spurs squad for their game tomorrow.

Furthermore, Sir Alex didn't say anything about it in his press conference today it would seem.

Giggs and Anderson may both take some part on Monday.

Tevez is back

Ronaldo may make the Chelsea game on 21st September as he is ahead of schedule in his rehab (about 3 weeks to go)
