Indeed, and there's a separate thread for FA cup stuff, here: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18391943

God damn you Tevez.

 

[Robbo]

Oh ffs

Norwich 1 Argentina 4

 

[Robbo]

Tevez and Aguero were always going to be a deadly combination, both are massively better than Balotelli.

Tevez did us a favour I think by having his little holiday.

 

[Robbo]

Tevez only needs 3 goals to match Welbeck's league total now....that is just embarrassing.

Welbeck just isn't good enough to play for a top team, I think he will end up somewhere like Fulham unless he improves massively and I really can't see that.

I'd very much like him to prove me wrong though especially as Sir Alex is intent on playing him all the time.

 

[Robbo]

RIP Morosini, just seen it on youtube, terrible way to go.

Indeed, it didn't look to be instant either.

RIP.

 

[Robbo]

Really sad news, so strange when somebody dies playing football. You get the feeling players are being pushed to the limits and this may be more regular in decades to come as we keep pushing them to do more.

I really don't think it's that. I wouldn't imagine footballers are pushed to any real physical extremes.

It's just one of those things unfortunately, perfectly (seemingly) healthy people can just drop dead... it happens.

 

[Robbo]

Well I'm hoping for not only a win today but a convincing win, we need goals, something like 3 or 4-0 to settle any nerves etc. None of this resting players and starting with a weakened side, slap them all on the field and fire off quickly!

Likewise, we need to give them a good thrashing.

Time to unleash the Berb! (wishful thinking )

 

[Robbo]

My word, do they ever test the intelligence of 'fans' before putting them in front of a camera?

I was just thinking the same.

 

[Robbo]

If Welbeck has yet another terrible game today, I won't be happy.

 

[Robbo]

Nice one Young.

 

[Robbo]

Rooney, 1-0.

 

[Robbo]

This is a bit more like it.

 

[Robbo]

What a missile that was.

 

[Robbo]

Great save, really fast cross from Valencia.

 

[Robbo]

Nice one Welbeck. 2-0.

 

[Robbo]

ManU have the perfect replacement for Ronaldo in Young, dives just ad often to cheat them penalty decisions.

That's just insulting to Ronaldo to be honest.

 

[Robbo]

Roooooooooooooney! 3-0.

Thanks for the pigeons.

 

[Robbo]

Berbatov on.
