SAF telling Rooney to get 40 goals this season (ie 14 more)

Is this inspriational or more pressure when he doesnt need it?

Considering the state of hte Europa league /FA cup campaigns - Im not entirely sure this helps (its not like Rooney would not try to score as many as he humanly could either way) - 14 goals in whats likely to be less than 11 games (ie I dont think Rooney will play every one, ie the "double header" of QPR at home and Wigan away within 3 days - I would guess he would be a sub in one/and or subbed in the other at the very least)

I think you're reading way too much into it.

Oh behave Fergie has these wagers with players all the time, it's not more pressure at all it's a bit of banter and that's all.

EDIT: Or what One More Solo said.

I think, but I can't quite remember, that this came from a column that Neville did. People will say he's biased but I think he's shown since being a pundit that he's actually very good & fair.

Just another view on it all anyway:

EDIT: Yeah, it was from a Daily Mail article he wrote.

The only problem is that it is massively effected by form. For example, the way we(Norwich) have played these last few games, I wouldn't expect Man City to have much trouble putting 3 or 4 past us...

Plus Wigan are in the relegation scrap therefore there should be an extra yellow on Man United's fixture list...

But apart from that, it gives a very clear example of how Man City have a much harder run in than United do. That combined with United's vast experience of title races makes them the favourites for the title IMHO...

Less time wasted on rubbish punditry and arm chair coaching, something about a few over paid pundits giving a lecture on defending that I don't enjoy...

Sounds games tend to be a better laugh too :D
