It's Seattle fecking Sounders and Xavi. It was deliberately condescending.

No fecking shit, are you stupid? You being condescending regarding a team you know almost nothing about is very foolish. Don't bother to address the other points I made, it is obvious you're here just to be an argumentative twat.
 

Several clubs have asked for info on Alex Song, inc Manchester United, but haven't furthered interest. [AS]

Song's wages are thought to be an issue for some. He's 26 and has a contract until 2017. Reports suggest price could be as low as €10m.


If we end up with that useless twat or other useless twats, then we should all boycott buyin the new shirt or any other United merchandise for that matter (not that it'll hurt the coffers that much), because it'll be quite clear that the club are coining it in from the fans & spending feck all on much-needed quality players in return...

Wait & see how this window pans out of course..
 

Ed Woodward and Beppe Marotta finalised Evra transfer through an email exchange yesterday. [GdS]


Why would United's CEO fly to Italy for a cheap sale like this? Surely, its up to the buyers to travel to the club they want a player from and not the other way around. Unless Woody is going to take a break or something else is on the cards.

I for one doubt all of the Vidal rumours.

It says they did it through email unless I'm missing something.

Metro.

Sky Italia atleast when reported through DI Marzio tend to be reliable.

True, but even then he generally uses his own site to discuss most of his stories.
 
O'Neill was on ITV. Rio , Seedorf and Henry we good. Gary Lineker is good, better than watching Adrian Chiles touching Fabio Cannavaro on the leg every five minutes.

Yeah was thinking of the ITV WC Panel. However, the MOTD panel is god awful. Did you see how much Hansen is on per episode? Craziness. Insanely jealous of that turd. Imagine getting paid that much (or anything at all), to sit down and talk about what we do anyway on a Saturday night.
 
Completely serious, he is getting old and it was very apparent the last 1-2 seasons with Barcelona. To fit him into the team we would have to completely change the style and formation and I'm not sure we have the personnel to play in a system that would get the best out of Xavi. I am of the opinion that completely changing a team to get the max out of a player on the decline for two years or so is a mistake, I would rather build for the future.

I am not saying he is not good enough by any means, despite getting older. He is by far better than anything we have or anything in the league I just don't think it would be a great move for the team as a whole. Your post is condescending which is a bit odd as you probably don't know much about the Sounders or the system they play so to assume you would know better than someone that watches almost every one of their matches is ridiculous.

It would be akin to trying to stick a big powerful midfielder that is not very good technically in for Barcelona at the height of their tiki-taka football, it doesn't mean that player is not good enough it just means he is not a good fit for that system. Surely you can understand that?

Yet you're the only one slinging insults.

It's just laughable to see someone suggest they weren't sure if they'd want a player like Xavi at Seattle Sounders.

I thought I read a few days ago that Ed Wood flew to Italy supposedly to discuss Vidal/Evra. Anyhow, how would anyone know the contents of a private email unless it was leaked?

Mata, Shaw and Herrera never happened? Wow. Much queen. Such drama.
 
I have no idea what the BBC's criteria is for a football pundit. It's like they've hand-picked the worst panel possible. The only one worth listening to during the WC was Martin O'Neill. The RTE panel is miles better, and that's saying sumthin'. At least they're amusing at the worst of times. Dumphy, however opposing his opinions are, is very intelligent.

You cant RTE for honest punditry & none of this arse-kissing shenanigans you find on BBC & ITV.

RTE pundits love to row with each other & it gets very heated as you'll know too well - thats what you wanna see. Its entertaining & they say whatever the hell they like.

Did you see Cannavaro on ITV? Seriously, that lad has gotta be the thickest shit i've ever seen. He's practically braindead ffs..
 
Aren't Seattle Sounders one of the few (if not the only) MLS team with a proper support base?

Yeah, attendance averages 40,000+.

You're not reading my post. He is better than anything we have but we would have to completely change the system to fit him in and I don't think the other players we have would suit that system well. To change the system completely to just get two or so years out of Xavi is very short term thinking and not something I would want for my club. Yes we would be getting a player better than anything we have, but I think overall it would hurt the Sounders in the long run.

It's just unfortunate that none of them other than Brady have the first clue what they're talking about.
 

Manchester United transfer rumours: PSG to overpower Red Devils in Angel Di Maria race? http://mirr.im/1qqsnTI

Isn't his agent Mendes? If yes and if Di Maria wants to come to United, there is no way PSG would over power us. We have dealt with Mendes a lot and fecking bought Bebe for 7 mil. Plus he is good friends with SAF.

Thats huge. Great to see the game spreading all over the States.

Whats not to love about the beautiful game at the end of the day..
 

Sky Sports: 9 Premier League clubs plus Italian/Spanish clubs want to sign City mid Jack Rodwell on a loan/permanent deal.

And I'm afraid money talks!!!

The boy would have been in Rio had he not moved to City! Wasted 2 years great for bank balance but poor for career.

His daughter was doing internship at United last year IIRC.




Anyway, if PSG bid 60 million Euros and offer him crazy wages then yeah, they can overpower us but i doubt that will happen unless they offload Cavani. This is Madrid press bigging up his price.

He was having Injury problems before Moving to City, but yeah i agree with you. Poor move.

Not sure he would have been in Rio right now anyway, unless he wanted to attend the Final due to 1) Injury problems hampering him. and 2) England wouldn't have reached the final anyway. :p


Edit - He does have a bigger contract and a PL winners medal though looking at it the other way.

Thats true alright, but its great entertainment listening to Dunphy & Giles shite on. Its hard to tell when Apres Match is on sometimes though..

Sadlier has turned into a proper cocky smug git now. He knows he's in line for a main pundrity role when Dunphy, Giles & Brady step-down - if they ever do, and seems to think he's the main man already. Used to think he was a breathe of fresh air, but unfortunately he's hard to stomach for me now...
 

According to @elconfidencial PSG's Thiago Silva has asked that the club sign #BRA teammate Marcelo from Real Madrid. #PSG #RMCF

Silva also requested PSG sign Barcelona's Dani Alves earlier this summer. Move has now failed. Silva also key in David Luiz joining PSG #BRA
 
I don't know what to make of what Gary Neville just said. Part of me thinks he wants Van Gaal to not succeed, even though he's a united fan as strange as that sounds.
I think he is on the bandwagon of british coaches/managers. He really wanted moyes to succeed, he wants giggs as the replacement. If he has said that, i think he is just being stupid.
 
Loud as feck too, standing and singing most of the game. Really proud of our team and fans :D

Yeah i've seen a few games & highlights of MLS last season & the crowds are pretty large & rowdy alright. Great to see & fair play to ya's..

The standard of football isnt great to watch on the telly though man. Much better buzz being there i reckon..
