The fact they have a 30 goal striker? One player doesn't make a team.
Probably more in the lines of he'll be **** in the Premiership? Like I said your judgment is usually wrong, kind of like when you were in tears when Man U drew 1-1 with Spurs.
He was the missing link.
He hasnt scored enough goals, hasnt scored agaisnt the better sides consistently and doesnt put any work in and goes missing after after a bit of a kicking.
Care to name any more of these examples, would love to hear them
Nope, use the search fuction.
United almost did throw the league away.
We have Emile Heskey and Wengers refusal to spend money to thank for that.
Yet MU are with our one man Ronaldo team?
He's been pretty much kicked off the park most of the season yet still has an impressive goal tally. I recall the hat trick he scored against Reading he was kicked all night. Also his first season in the Premiership.
It wasn't almost though was it? You were adament...you were betting £20 on it!
Are they? I thought Rooney was the one man team?
It changes from week to week, normally though its Ronaldo that is mentioned as MU being a one man team
He's got a Bee in his bonnet about something, sooner or later he will lose his cool and go on a rant and we will find out whats got him riled.
He doesnt like United fans slating other players.
I think when we say thinks like "dont want Berbatov, Owen or Torres" it sticks in his craw a bit.
We watch every game, we know who we need and who we dont
He is also a Leeds fan, thats why hes bitter
Who took it up?
Did you?
Do i owe you £20?
Ill pay pal it across to you with the link to the post saying you'll take the bet because you were that confident United would win the league from that position.

Ahh a LEEDS fan.
Its a pity the search function doesnt go back far enough, Gilly will tell him though.
Predicted they would go bust and not win a thing just before the semi final against Valencia i think it was.
Gilly asked if i had the access to the club accounts.
Of course not, just got it nailed on from the comfort of my armchair.
Speaking as a Man Utd fan, I'd have to say that there is no way Torres is "not as good as we want". He is a quality striker that would improve most teams he played in - including Utd. I'd be delighted if we could get him off the Scousers (not that it would happen now!).
Quote from BBC (about Chelsea signing Bosingwa) made me laugh:
United had a Striker in that vain, a certain Rutgerus Johannes Martinius van Nistelrooij and we got nowhere with him really ( bar a league title and a couple of cups), as we became one dimensional.
Its no coincidence that the most successful teams of the past 4 years in the league have had the ethic that EVERYBODY chases back, tackles and puts the work in, those that dont have that style and that ethic have won nothing.
All fergie has done is copied Mourinho going backwards and spliced it with united going forward.
On a side note, players i WOULD take from other teams in the prem:
Cech
Lampard
Essien
Clichy
Robbie Keane
Gabriel Agbonlahor (sp)

I wasn't talking about building a team around the guy - thinking about him as a squad player!
Sooner have him than Saha!
Certainly agree with Cech - VdS has looked like he's lost his confidence in the second half of the season. Still a good keeper though.
