Funny how football can be. If man city don't score two united are champs. If bayern hold on for 6 more mins Chelsea are a club in obscurity and hazard probs nailed on to come to united.

Massive blow not getting hazard. Think he's pretty much gtd a starting spot which will also have made his mind up
You don't think he was also gtd a spot at that red team you support ? Never seen him play but from the clamour for his signing I'd expect he'd instantly be your best midfielder. |

The origin of "Man .u." is a song to insult the dead Duncan Edwards.
so when the club and media used it pre-munich they knew he was going to die and decided to do it to insult him? and when they continued to use it after munich they were just being real bastards? I know it's no where near the same level. But you could say the same about the Nazi symbol, look what happened to that. It became offensive, just like the term Man U, it became something offensive, just thought United fans should know their history, that is all. |

Thoughts on RVP signing? Think we needed a striker but will he fit in? Form a partnership with Rooney? 24m too much for a 29 yo?
What about our midfield? Is it string enough to compete and winboth at home and in Europe?

I'm sure he'll fit in fine for the fifteen or so games that he normally plays in an average season. How long is a piece of strong? |

A 29yr old that has only once played over 30 games in a season.....that was last season. Fingers crossed as he has got older his injuries have left him behind.
I am definitely excited at the prospect of going to watch him.
Big seasons for Anderson and Cleverly I reckon but have we being saying that for the past few seasons about Anderson?

Love how all ur arsenal fans are so bitter Well the thing is that we made you pay over the odds for a 29 year-old player who is in the last year of his contract and has a history of being injury-prone over six years. Hopefully he's put his injury problems behind him but realistically players tend to become more rather than less injury-prone as they get older, you only have to check out your aging defenders to see that. Arsenal fans are bitter as we stood by Robin through all of those injury-ridden seasons and a scandal or two as well like AW did. We thought he would have a little more loyalty but whatever, £24M seems reasonable enough to me. |

Doesnt matter now anyway. Failed his medical at United due to a bad back from carrying 10 men for a whole season.

Good deal for Arsenal but a good player for Man Utd. Doesn't seem to fit a plan but maybe a bit similar to Nasri last season. Wasn't necessary but it's important he didn't go to the other Manchester club.
