Manchester United, that didn't last long. Seven up

[paulhouk03]

I really dont rate rooney at all

he is good but he isnt amazing

i hope he hasnt peaked yet

agree with camel tho RE 99 squad

maybe the current squad is better in terms of depth but the 99 first 11 was v gooooood

[paulhouk03]

RVP and Carrick are papering over an awful lot this season.

Zzzzz

Love how people love to pick faults at utd at every opportunity, even when they are getting the results, Ur forgetting about evra, giggs, Valencia, and wellbeck is class

Squads very good ATM and pivotal players are in good form.

really?

personally I think the prem being in a pretty bad state has helped man utd alot

[david3103]

Prediction:

Welbeck, Young and Cleverley will have been sold by Man United before the start of 2014-15 season.

Simply not good enough to play for United.

RVP and Carrick are papering over an awful lot this season.

Last year a lot of people considered Carrick 'simply not good enough to play for United'

I disagree on Cleverley and Welbeck for sure, and reserve judgement on Young.

Comparisons with 99 are ridiculous, but bear in mind that the 99 season saw a lot less rotation. 8 players started 40 games plus and the squad was definitely shallower than it is now.

I don't think one performance, however good or bad it is, really proves all that much. I still think De Gea is a good keeper with a lot of promise and I still think Hart is a good keeper who's very overrated. Shay Given was as good a shot stopper as you'll ever see, he was never a World Class keeper though.

both good goal keepers ! Hart at the moment still better but not by much but time can change things as de gea still a spring chicken ! Think Hart is rated exactly where he is as the  best English goalkeeper England have ! As to say he is overrated is a bit baffling as Mancini nor Hart himself have ever expressed being the best goalkeeper in the world?

If anything Mancini as been highly critical of him in the past an yet to hear rumours of any of the big clubs abroad ever showing any interest in buying him !

I was more referring to fans and pundits, a lot of who say he's World Class when he's just not, I've said this for a long time and not just due to recent poor form. He's regularly talked about in the same group as the very best by the media and pundits which is pretty ridic.

Talking about Hart not De Gea ok, can we please remove any further discussion of   مدينة citeh this is a MUFC thread is it not. TY

The squad we have now, i comparison to the squad in 99 does IMHO have a fair few simmilarities, both in the depth and the blend of youth and experience. Going to try and avaoid too many mentions of the Gazier scumbags, but it's clear we don't have the buying power to match what we could compared to other teams back in 99.

With regards to the youngsters (Cleverly, Wellback, Jones, Smalling, De Gea to name a few), they have amazing potential, and are already good enough to compete at the highest level in the UK, and developing beyond expectations. In Rafael we have one of the most exciting right backs in the world, Hernandez, clinical, and a real team player, Nick Powell another, and some real talent developing below them.

Anyone who dismisses what Rooney can do on a football pitch as anything but world class needs their head wobbling, and I could go on.

This squad has the potential to eclipse anything any other United squad has achieved, and that's all whilst we have to contine to fear how much money the Glaziers will continue to basically steal from our club.

Wrong, not paid a dime since they 'bought' or borrowed us with others money, and yeah football's a differnet game clearly, but you should get to some Non league games and see it's still our as in the peoples game. Money will come and go, football fans the world over know that.

Not going to argue on a forum where betting is more important than the game, but you're wroong, that's all.

I go to plenty of lower league and non league games every season tyvm.

I worry that I will start to like the glazers it's wierd I dislike the way they have gone about things but they are very savvy business men and I don't think we would have spent much more if it was still a club in the fans hands. Since they have come in the club has almost doubled in value. We are still winning trophies and still the best team in England. It's hard to catch barca and the minute but they have this guy called messi and players like that don't come around to often. We have still spent money on players. It hard for me to say I like the glaziers but I sure do feel comfortable at the minute I would rather the glaziers then some rich guy using our club as a play thing!

We have squad stability, we are financially stable and we are the best team England and definitely top 4 in Europe. Apart from the ticket prices going sky high the glaziers are doing ok at the minute.

I've mentally prepared to be flamed!

Lest we forget...

Before I start commenting on this thread, I'd like to let it be known that despite some sarcastic posts on their respective threads, I don't actually hate Leeds, Newcastle or Liverpool.

But I really, really, really hate Man United.

That makes sense, what a sad man. So filled with hate we have no idea if he actually loves anything or anyone..

[Ant040689]

One of the best ever

see how many he catches... particularly the second one on the vid

Absolutely awesome goalkeeper, completely agree. But he's not catching as much as the standard goalkeeper now with the new age footballs. They move in the air, bounce from your hands before you have much of a chance to clasp if its hit with pace and the balls back then were slower and heavier.

I do think today though, gk's are pre programmed to palm away and make mistakes doing so to shots that should hav been held onto.

And btw, I am probably going to go to most of Palace's run in until the end of the season. Zaha is really coming into his own again and has got over his post England debut blues by the looks of it. He is only 20. The mind boggles. Watch the first match on the football league show on iplayer if u wanna see what he has been about.

hey that's a bit ott. Keith has his views and opinions that he is entitled to just as anyone. He at least deserves a great amount of respect for the decent chap and legend he is.
