Rooney-Ronaldo-Tevez was such a fucking good front three. That team was just sensational all over, brilliant from keeper to striker.

The Neogaf E3 thread is amazing.
Why would they give Evilore a pass? Does he write things about his experiences at E3? That's not entirely just a dig, I honestly can't remember, but I just can't see the point in it.
I mean, the site can't even stay up during the event hahaha

Yeah, I liked Teddy. Remember him being brilliant a year or two after the treble really vividly. Beckham was fantastic that year too.
Your club would be in an even worse state if you kept Tevez, imagine today's Rooney and him together.
Ronaldinho was genuinely terrible with Milan.
he did nothing with us so far. Coincidence?
I know that. I'm picking him based on his Barca years; he just happened to play with Milan. Zidane as well, I don't think I ever saw him play for Juventus. But he did play for them, I'm just picking him based off his Madrid time.
Could have had Gattuso, Seedorf, Zambrotta and Kaka as well. That Milan side were so good... but yeah, soz m8. The team I went for is my faves from all the football I've watched outside of United to be honest. I haven't watched Bundesliga until the last few years, and haven't watched anyone outside Madrid and Barca outside the last few years, but I used to watch Football Italia so that's why all my favourites (barring the two I mentioned) are from there.
Really liked Raul and Rivaldo as well.
Agreed. Whole think is fucking childish. Then again it's a gaming community, hardly a bastion of maturity and level-headedness where these subjects are concerned. The kickstarter thing slayed me.

It's just that for breaking FFP you are meant to be punished with a reduced squad, and 16 non-HG is really not that much different than what City were doing before.
The disintegration of the Champions league winning side was a travesty IMO. Ronaldo leaving was a given but we still made another final without him. We never built on that team and let our stars get old together. Gross negligence on Ferguson's part to let midfield get into such a state.

Still kind of staggering when you think about it. Sell £80 million superstar and a world class forward and bring in captain perma-crock and a £14 million winger from Wigan.
Fuck me.
How we managed to win 2 titles between than and now I don't know. It's felt like a constant clusterfuck in terms of squad management and rebuilding.

So, so terrible! Twice
Seriously though, he was awful most of the time. He usually dribbled a couple of players and then just laid there, waiting for the ball to come near him. The dribblings were wonderful, as usual, but he was just waiting to go back to Brazil.
Batistuta as well, hnngggghhh.
Absolute madness, even considering how good Valencia was for a time.

Nope, I agree, but 13 non-HG limit would be really hard to understand and make (like some wanted). I hoped for 15, would still punish City a lot since they probably would have to sell one or two to make it.
City are going in the right direction and will break even this year, Uefa said they would look at in a positive way when FFP was presented.

Not a lot of time for Rivaldo as a human. But a killer footballer.
Yeah, definitely
Bearded Genius has just named Berba in his favourite United team :lol
Sealey; Rafael, Johnsen, Stam, Irwin; Kanchelskis, Scholes, Robson, Giggs (18); Eric, Berbatov
Being considerably younger, mine would be:
van der Sar; Neville, Vidic, Ferdinand, Evra; Beckham, Keane, Scholes; Ronaldo, van Nistelrooy, Giggs

Fancesc and Kroos seem our main targets but he doesn't seem au fait with the Shaw deal.
Ed Sheeran's a fucking mongrel, y u listen to him.

I remember it like it was yesterday. I was supposed to go to Nevada Smiths in NYC for the match but my friend's car broke down coming to my house that night. I ended up watching the match at how with 2 non footy watchers and they both fell asleep until I woke them up screaming after Van der Sar's stop on Anelka.
I heard that, I thought it was Justin Timberlake. I like Justin Timberlake though.
VDS (proper gentleman)
Neville (not too many other options)
Stam (horrible beast)
Vidic (another horrible beast)
Irwin (Irish Lahm)
Beckham (would share a small bath with him)
Scholes (favourite player ever)
Keane (Juventus)
Ronaldo (best player I've ever seen live)
Giggs (that chest)
Cantona (my earliest football memory is his goal in the 97 final)

Taibi, Spector, Blanc, Silvestre, Kleberson, Djemba-Djemba, Obertan, Poborsky, Bebe, Bellion, Fangzhou
An improbable team winning a CL final? Of course we're going to be involved. And we lost the 1982-83 final to Hamburg with this fucking team:
Zoff, Gentile, Cabrini, Bonini, Brio, Scirea, Bettega, Tardelli, Rossi (Marocchino), Platini, Boniek
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. Like, a GOAT team. I don't know how we do it, honestly.
Tragedy that Luke Chadwick hasn't made the cut, here.

#Soulbros, I must admit PvP is pretty fun, but only when I'm killing invaders. I made a second character instead of doing NG+ and when I got up to the Gargoyle fight I got invaded non-stop, but this time I fucking destroyed all the bellbro dickholes. Only one guy killed me and that's because he got one of those laggy backstabs where you can't see them moving and all of the sudden you're dead. I won two 2v1s, one guy invaded me, ran around trying to make me aggro the black dwarf fuckers, then waited for another invader before he fought me. He finally came downstairs to fight when it was 2v1 and I crushed his cunty little face in with wide swings while I was aiming for the other person :lol 3 R2s with my Magic Mace +5 and they were both dead.
Fucking bellbros.
Fucking bellbros.
My first season properly following United was 1998-99. I only got one season of Schmeichel. I got a fair few seasons of VDS <33333
Really like both of them, but I liked Ruud more.
VDS v Pete is probably the hardest decision, but Moscow gave VDS the edge.

Schmeichel is a piece of shit.
No chance he'd be ahead of VDS in my favourites.

Burnt bellend story is the GOAT.
That's really harsh on Blanc and Silvestre.
