FA Cup **Spoilers**

We've got Woody and King out, but then, that's nothing new. Lennon also won't be back in time.

Likely lineup:

Gomes
Corluka - Dawson - Bassong - Bale
Modric - Huddlestone - Palacios - Kranjcar
Defoe - Keane


I think Harry will be wanting to do all he can to win this so will opt for Modric AND Kranjcar now that Lennon is out rather than resorting to Bentley. Unless he goes with Jenas on the right.

Seems to be the case that when Man Utd arent winning or doing well, the usual suspects come out and say sack Fergie lol...without Fergie i dont think Man Utd will do any better...as much as i dislike Fergie i have to admit that id love to see him at Arsenal, not that it will ever happen but the guy has the midas touch when it comes to winning titles and trophies...that much cant be denied and im pretty sure that a lot if not all teams in football would love to have a manager of his calibre leading their team.

No its not the fact we are not winning everything in sight, its the awful AWFUL football he is dishing up.

This side he has at the minute is possibly only second to his dreadful 01/02 side, in which strangely enough he made EXACTLY the same mistakes as he has done this year.
Defensive problems underestimated and ignored (laurent Blanc!!)
Weak up front. (one quality striker!)
Weak in goal. (Barthez!)

Refusing to drop players who simply were not good enough.........

As for loving him at Arsenal, I'd swap him for Wenger in a heartbeat as it stands right now, because everything he touches is turning to **** not gold at the minute.

I don't think he's refusing to drop people (he dropped Nani), it's just that there in no improvement in other areas of the squad. Man Utd's squad is quite weak this year, I thought it was a mistake not buying anybody of note in the summer (just one or two quality players to help make the transition from with Ronaldo to without)

The way our defence is at the minute, you'll rip us a new one.

Nani hasnt been dropped, he has been unavailable selection (ankle injury) over the festive period.

It goes back two seasons where he blew his wad on Berbatov and ignored everything else, including Tevez who was going great guns with Rooney upfront.
No one can take away his past achievements, but how long do you put up with the rubbish he is serving up now?
 
Redknapp has been accused of a £40,000 tax evasion and the 62-year-old voluntarily attended Bishopsgate police station in the capital to be charged by police, his solicitor said.
The move comes at the end of an exhaustive 26-month police and tax inquiry into alleged corruption in English football.
A statement from the Crown Prosecution Service read: ''Henry (Harry) Redknapp, the former football manager of Portsmouth City Football Club, has today been charged with two counts of cheating the public revenue.
''The CPS Revenue and Customs Division decided there was sufficient evidence and it was in the public interest to charge Mr Redknapp. He is jointly charged with Milan Mandaric, the former chairman of Portsmouth City Football Club, following an investigation by the City of London Police and HM Revenue & Customs.''
''The charges concern two payments, totalling USD$295,000, from Mr Mandaric to Mr Redknapp via a bank account in Monaco, evading the tax and national insurance contributions due between 1 April 2002 and 28 November 2007. The payments were in relation to Mr Redknapp's employment. He will appear at the City of Westminster Magistrates' Court on 11 February.''

Sounds more down to Mandaric to me.

Mandaric did not pay money into a Monaco bank account without Redknap knowing about it.
