  1. Watching Stones in that set piece was an example of what I was on about.
  2. Completely agree with Duffy not being able to fit in, and stones isnt bad pushing up and playing the passing game, however, I just think he seems very nervous when defending and is prone to mistakes. I know he's learning his game and its probably because Im used to Distin and Jags being at the heart of our defence, who lets face it, play so so well together. I hope he comes good I can see glimpses of quality in him. Jags needs to mentor him well!
  3. Im not a massive fan of him to be honest. From what I saw when Duffy played I thought he had more potential in comparison.
  4. Lukaku is shite at dribbling! But he just popps up at the right moment all the time haha. Hope we can buy him, if not Bony, he was brilliant today
  5. 29 I think he is, could still have 6+ seasons in him! I had high hopes for Joel too... at the moment I get nervous watching him play. He couldnt catch a cold.
  6. Aye agree with the fact that we need to sort it out, but look at united previous seasons, last minute goals won them titles. Chelsea this season too, they've hardly been prolific, they've just done what they needed to do. Today was never going to be easy, we edged it and we did what we needed to do. Seamus Coleman was brilliant all game IMO and has been our stand out player this season. What a bargain.
  7. Can we vote for player of the season right now please?
  8. Ill be happy to see Osman retire/leave at the end of the season. As much as I love him its good for him to go on a high and not because he's turned shite
  9. Naismith seems to be pushing out wide, might as well have 10 men on the field if that's where he's been told to play, needs to be a 2nd striker to make any impact.
  10. Great turn, lucky deflection. Dont deserve the goal but lets keep at it and get those three points.
  11. Is Naisy on the bench? Wouldnt mind seeing him and Barkley on. Hopefully not McGeady
  12. If that was one of the top 4 they are guaranteed a penalty there, we never seem to get them, yet always give them away. Conspiracy
  13. Baines can't, unless its a set piece! Colman cant either, Mirallas is alright but would praise him for it too much and Barkley is over rated haha, he's scores about 2 goals from outside the box all season.
  14. If we dont show up I think I'm going to cry, as someone said above we havnt been ourselves since we went on holiday to Spain.
  15. Apparently united want to spend huge this summer, therefore shipping off a lot of players for cut-price deals. I can't see it happening, but maybe we could possibly get someone else such as Welbeck, who I wouldn't mind at all.
  16. All this said when there is a thread titled "Martinez wont last the season", nobody showed any faith in him when he got here and many believed that finishing in the top 10 would be a good end to the season, as we were in a transistion, You writing off our season in March because we lost away to Arsenal, which I would like to add that we havnt beated them away since 96, is very, very over dramatic.
  17. A bit far isnt that haha?
  18. Didnt think the second pen was as good as the commentaters made out.
  19. With the Neville argument, as someone mentioned above, he put in some fantastic shifts at RB against some wold class wingers. I remember the crunching double tackle he made on Ronaldo against United a few years back, which sparked some life into our season, we came out of that game with a draw if I remember correctly? And on top of that when he saved a goal with his bear hands against the Kop many moons ago. They scored, but how many players would have done that for their club? I'm actually surprised so many saw him as a bad skipper, there seems to be no inbetween, and I have to say I thought he was vital for the DM era.
  20. Records are made to be broken eh mate?!
  21. In terms of what he does on the field, Barry is brilliant, but Phil Neville massively helped shaped the club in the past few years and for that I am very greatful. I think you saying that is very disrispectful to Neville, although I understand everyones entitled to their opinion. Neville made our defence solid and is as influential as any other.
  22. Could be a 2 year with an extention after so many games. 50K is a lot of money but after all he is free and we're not going to find a player that does what he does for the team any cheaper. Granted, he's old, but he could help us challenge four europe for the next 2 seasons.
  23. Yepp I third that, his off ball movement has been brilliant and looks like he's up for scoring a few goals lately.
