sebsy Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Job nicely done. Carrick really is just brilliant at what he does.

Pangaea Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 So... City can max get 84 points, and that's if they beat us. 3 more wins and we have number 20 Or beat City and it's basically done. Didn't get to see the match, but I saw RVP's goal. Would be nice if he gets the credit, but doubt it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSB Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Thought Evans was triffic yesterday, some Rio-esque defending at times. Not so sure Nani starts tomorrow, think it could be Welbeck-Rooney-Giggs off Hernandez. Between Gardner clutching his face and them contesting the de Gea drop ball and not returning possession when Young thought RvP was injured I thought Sunderland showed themselves to be quite a nasty bunch.

Andrew_ Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I'm glad they didn't return the ball. Let the ref stop the game if he thinks it's necessary. It wasn't. Just trying to waste time. And didn't they have the ball before the drop ball? Why wouldn't they contest it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheps. Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Agree with those wanting Young sold. Apart from doing something pretty special once every few months he really doesn't offer anything. At least with Valencia we know he can be a great out and out winger, he's just in some serious lack of form. Whereas Young's just not good enough.

Just trying to waste time.And didn't they have the ball before the drop ball? Why wouldn't they contest it? We returned the ball to them in an identical situation in the first half (player putting the ball into touch when he thought a teammate was injured only for them to have already recovered). If we were trying to waste time then why did RvP get up? For the drop ball, they had possession which was why Young wanted to return the ball to them uncontested... as happens with practically every instance where the game stops for an injury to the keeper following a collision.

Icondacarver Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Young has had as much of a stop-start season as Valencia, I would be certain they are both here next season as the kind of money we would have for replacements will get us players who are worse. If one of the forwards leaves then we might see a winger bought but while we have five "forwards", the wings are the outlet to give game time to Kagawa & Welbeck....even Rooney too.

Razzler Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 They had a wealthy owner for a bit and look like coming back up to the top flight just not sure it's the draw it once was seeing as we have seen English players even at midtable Spanish clubs like Jermane Pennant ... in those days with Hoddle it was rarer, I guess. There doesn't seem to be much indication they will come shopping in England either, especially with Premier League wages these days, no matter how rich you are. Also, overseas players may have to start paying tax there soon, in line with FFP and all sorts. Sure there's something about that recently too which means they lose the advantage of being able to pay more. Are they even gonna super spend when they go up, really need to be right at the top for that to work, can see them easing into it a little more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew_ Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Little wonder therefore that the Mexican has been linked with a move away from United. However, Ferguson has told any potential suitors not to waste their time by even making an inquiry. "He's on a long contract and we won't be entertaining any interest from anyone," said Ferguson.

Pangaea Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 It is Razzler, the lesser spotted troll. Practically giving him a lift to his new club there, if you ask me ... Speaking of the Devil... I'm slightly surprised nobody picked up on my wrong math yesterday. Said City could only get 84 points, when they can in fact get 86. Not that it matters much. As long as we don't lose to them, any small hope they have will quickly vanish after the next league match. Going forward, it will be interesting to see what SAF does in terms of squad rotation if we crash out of the FA Cup. The league will be sewn up fairly soon and normally you'd expect him to play 'weaker' teams in the league for experience and... wink-wink nudge-nudge... medals. But with the possibility of only league games the last month of the season, he may not want to do that, and try to grab the points record instead.

ddidiodion Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 I have had it in my head for a while as we need someone who can play in a midfield 2 next to Cleverley. He's got to have enough attacking threat so as to not leave it all on Cleverley and be good enough defensively to not leave us exposed when they play together. Never seen Stoorman play so I have no idea what he's like, I wanted Javi Martínez before he went to Bayern. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: and he also has to be able to do this But not this Can't believe he's still wearing 5 year old boots Still maintain (as do the majority of Everton fans, that I've encountered anyway) that Fellaini is at the very least the closest to that that's out there, even though he typically plays further forward due to Everton's options. Can't see many alternatives available - previously there were some half hearted suggestions of the Juve midfielders and as giddy as I was getting when there was talk of us at the prospect of getting Asamoah the strength of Serie A is very debatable atm. Same goes for Gundogan et al in the Bundesliga, particularly given Shinji 'best player in Germany' Kagawa's struggles to adapt. Long term they're an option, but I've yet to hear a solid short/medium term solution. Of course if (*if*) Fletcher can come back properly and do 2-3 years as a screening DM then that's a huge benefit and a burden off Carrick's shoulders. Likewise Jones' performances up to and including the Real game suggested a greater discipline for the DM role that I had hitherto granted him.
