Newbie MoneyMay again, think he has a man crush on RvP!

What red-blooded male doesn't?

EDIT: Great video, by the way. Good song choice, as opposed to the usual shitty heavy rock or shitty chart rap. Love a bit of Rodrigo y Gabriela.
 
Was glad one of my 3 games at Old Trafford this year was that Villa game. Incredible volley!
 
My girlfriend just saw him in Dubai today, she is staying at the same hotel. They were by the pool side and some kids were chanting "VP, VP, VP". Think that's pretty cool, I'm extremely angry at her not bugging the guy on his holiday and asking for an autograph ! :mad:

I'm just kidding, he deserves a break after his epic season with us
 
I think he's at his charity football tournament in Holland that we've sent a youth team out to. Or has that gone already?
 
When I was really young, I knew a kid whose dad played professionally in the Danish league. He used to join in and show off whenever we were having a kick-about just like this. One day I just didn't stop when he rolled the ball out of my reach, and essentially head-butted him, full-speed, in the nuts. He didn't join in so much after that.
 
poor fecking kids :lol:

How great would that be to say you've been megged by RVP!!

Bit strange that they seem to have kidnapped a few african kids for some football torture though...

He takes who he wants.. he takes who he wants!!!!!!!!!!
 
damn, the more the season progressed, and the more I'm watching videos of him now, the more I'm absolutely esthatic he's a United player...not to mention he's absolute class as a professional and generaly seems to enjoy the hell out of playing for United and always somehow says the right things.

It's just great to see such an awesome player finaly get the title, still get to be coached atleast 1 year under the best manager ever, and see him absolutely love his life here.
I'll admit I was a bit skeptical at first, not because I had any doubt about his ability, but I was concerned about his previous fitness problems, the fact that he wasn't exactly the youngest player out there and was playing for a rival, but like I said as the season progressed he continued to "grow on me" and he's now firmly in my top 5 :D

I hate saying this because it's overused but feck it, he's a legend and an absolute class of a player/person.

Here's to title #2 for him next season and hopefuly a CL title in the near future as well :)
 
It's one thing to these things about 6 years old, another during a game against grown ups... Come back when you go it against proper opposition.

Joking....
 
Reminds me of Michael Owen Soccer Skills... when Owen used to take penalties against like a 10 year old goalkeeper and absolutely thunder them home.

I can't really remember it all that well, but I'd like to think he ran off celebrating too...

"Well done, he's thirteen." :lol:

Or in RVP's case, "well done, he's six".
 
No one else in our squad besides maybe Nani could do that to that extent.


Imagine Rooney trying to do something like this :lol:

To be fair, any professional football player can do that (almost everyone for sure)

They just dont need to these shits in football...

Ive played with a lot of professional players (average players, nothing special) and they look so different in a baby football or futsal game than in a professional game. They are so fecking good to control the ball and do crazy shits in tight spaces... but on the tv, they look like crap haha...

I bet Vidic can do those shits blindfolded.
 
My little brother had that Soccer Skills video and watched it constantly, the bit that stuck with me the most was the really brutal footage of Owen snapping his hamstring during a sprint, he looked like he'd been shot.

And to GO, I totally agree. A lad in the year below me at school has played like twice for Sunderland so no-one near being consistent first team quality and in small sided games he looks ridiculously superior to 90% of the other player, the gulf in class between the average person who plays for fun and the average professional player is huge.

Good video (thankfully free of any editorializing on the creator's part.)
