"What are you staring at buddy? Like this is my dream job or something! I ought to comb-over there and kick your ass"

I need this guys book.

Kopenhagen is in shambles once again.
They're loosing Bengtsson to Mainz.

Wooden pls no Seppuku.

We've known for over a year now that he was leaving, just not to where. Got his replacement signed too. Bengtsson is great though, one of our few players who looks like he wants to win.

Jeez, not many draws in that division :D

Wish I'd got into football early enough to play it properly

It's to be expected, we're the 4th division out of 5, so as you can probably tell none of the teams are amazing. Flukey wins and narrow defeats abound.

You play for Sporting CS? What year did you join UoM?

2011, but I didn't even know we had a team until this year. Plus I was away on placement last year so I couldn't have played then anyway.

Still can't believe WHY anyone would make a guinea pig comb.
I mean a weird looking fox or other animals are one thing, but some ideas that people have are just mindblowing.

Still better than a pair of Crocs...

Gonna get the book once I've got some money left.

Ahh.

Played against your lot a couple of times when I played in that league. Had a very good team back in 09-10. We Chelsea'd them.
 
I find Cech to Arsenal hard to believe. He's a great goalkeeper, he'll get better offers and £7m is far too low.

Wenger has persisted with with Chesney this long, I dont see why he'd replace him at this point

You are probably right on that second point - but not sure about the first. Where will those better offers come from?

The only one to rival it that could be forthcoming would actually be from United if we lose De Gea in the summer....but that's dependent on many different things, De Gea leaving, LvG wanting Cech, United making the top 4, etc.

Arsenal is a good offer. He'll be well paid and gets to stay in London. Won't be winning much but he's had a successful career already.

PSG. That oil club conspiracy.

PSG wanted him over the summer iirc (along with half of our squad), Real Madrid have been linked with another keeper too - the Carlo connection.

If he is available I don't see him lacking offers for a top goalkeeper. Although I still maintain he won't play until his late 30s due to his head gear etc, I think he will probably retired at 35, maybe 36.
 
Hugo Borst, writer of great LVG biog 'O Louis' tells @tSHandJ #Strootman v keen to join #MUFC. 'Shook hands on it when LVG mentioned it'

Easy peasy. Hope we do it in Jan.

Strootlord: “With him looking on, whether it’s during a training session or in a packed stadium, it’s not a matter of me wanting the ball,” Strootman says of Van Gaal. “No, I’ve got to have it. It is mine. It’s like an obligation I have to Van Gaal.”




Delightful
 
Manchester United ‏@ManUtd 5m5 minutes ago

Louis van Gaal says Angel Di Maria and @D_DeGea are fit for #mufc's game at Arsenal on Saturday but @BlindDaley could be out for six months.

Blind out for 6 months. Fuck.

Carrick available but Shaw's a doubt.

Hey guys
What do you think of colleagues who come to your home to blow you and then directly drink water from the bottle without saying anything?
Asking for a cousin.

Also, subbed.

PS: english not included

Last year we missed out on Van Ginkel. Got injured big time.

This year we sadly sold Blind. Got injured big time.

Pay attention big clubs.

Debuchy and Koscielny around 3 weeks away from being involved.

So, Monreal at CB this weekend?


LvG adds that Luke Shaw is doubtful for the trip to the Emirates but expects Michael Carrick to be available.

Hopefully he'll be fit.

Our injury situation is not looking so bad now. Only Ospina, Ozil, Debuchy and Koscielny out now.

Debuchy and Kos should be playing before Christmas so provided we don't get anymore injuries we are in pretty good shape.

When's the next international break? So I can plan a vacation.

The thirst is real. That's really all there's to say about it.

Cech would be a great signing for us. Ospina is dead and Shz hasn't shown enough to be a guranteed starter. Some real competition would be good for bim.

Cech would be our number 1 obviously.

Don't think Jack is a DM for Arsenal. Against smaller teams maybe, but I think like jtb said, Ozil Jack and a Dm is a good mid.

Yeah Debuchy and kos back in training I heard.

However us not getting any more injuries is highly unlikely.

LvG on Falcao: " It takes time. Next week he shall train, probably with our selection + then he needs 2 weeks and maybe a game..." #mufc

Rumbo :(

Hopefully he can make the Stoke game.

Falcao looked better than all our strikers when he was playing.

Shame we probably won't use that option to buy.

My mum keeps saying that Falcao was a rubbish signing and "we'll probably send him back in January"

This kind of thing isn't going to help remedy her wrong opinion any time soon.
 
Wonder if these smaller Falcao injuries are related to him spending so long out with that cruciate injury. Was he like this before he had that?
