This is how I feel about him as well. And if you've seen him play you know it's true.
Under different circumstances and with less bad luck I have no doubts he'd be one of the league's sensations. I hope he gets enough time to prove me right. =/

Falcao is damaged goods and Monaco's doctors knew it. They were hoping he would stay fit long enough for United to make an offer.
It's not that much different than what we're currently trying to pull with Milan and Torres who is currently back with us receiving treatment for an ankle injury. Luckily, we've already swindled them into a loan deal that will see out the last two years of his contract at which point we'll wipe ourselves clean of him.

judging from the reactions, im really glad i didn't stay up last night for the match. no falcao either, i've always liked watching him play before.
wouldn't miss the man u vs liverpool match though, the meltdowns will be glorious

It's true that few are as talented as that kid, but a lot of really technically amazing players go on to be mediocre in real football. Young players are exciting but I don't like to pin my hopes on fetuses.

I don't just flat out say oh this player will become a star based on a few videos. I'm pretty harsh on almost all of United's youth players. I've only really been confident in Januzaj and Wilson recently. Gomes is an interesting prospect at this point, nothing more. I'll know more about him once he plays for the u18s (a year or two from now) as I would be able to watch him much more. From people that go to games and videos I have seen of him his technique and vision are all at a level that aren't common in kids his age.
He's very talented, but talent alone doesn't turn a player into a star. Attitude, injuries, playing time, etc... can ruin talent as we have seen with Ravel.

True. Sterling was great for a couple of months and has now settled into being mediocre. He should just retire now.

Simeone expects the best Juve of all times tonight.
I'm not sure about that :lol we'll never see the best Juve this season at all because Caceres is permanently injured and Barzagli (!!!!!) is in a comatose state.
I love the Abysswalker but he's not even 20% the player he was last season
same goes for Pirlo.
Marchisio and Pogba are still incredibly gud tho
Bonucci :lol Ogbonnator :lol Evra :lol Current Chiellini :lol PADOIN LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Llorente is worse than Soldado

Playing with Llorente on PES is like a Bla simulator.
An individual player makes me angry at the game.

As long as we all agree who called it first by saying that Sterling peaked last season. Sorry, Hitch, I call 'em as I see 'em.

He will still win the golden boy I bet.
That's a bit unfair m7, he's just tired that's all.

I shat on Carrick, was pissed Aguero went to City and probably tons of other hilariously off predictions and contradictions.

I remember the days when Cristiano was so hated and accused of diving and acting while playing for united, most of the other teams fans hated him back then
United had that legit hate back in the day. I remember when Nani got gashed open against Liverpool and cried on the pitch and EVERRRRYONE was shitting on him lol.
Now most everyone are friendly and self-aware.

I was hoping Getafe would make it through
it was disappointing seeing them throw the match in the last 5 minutes

Man Utd grinding results like crazy
Get relegated, Southampton
Long's finishing is horrendous.

What I meant is that Rooney is always going to start anyway and now that RvP is scoring he's not going to get dropped either.

...hate me...
Yeah but in the end, answering to a guy saying that Mourinho will go to United after SAF is done:

Jesus, 10 years since 'and the ball falls for GerrAAAAAAAAAAAAARD OH YOU BEAUTY! WHAT A HIT SON! WHAT A HIT'
Don't think we're doing it tonight. Absolutely desperate to be wrong. I know we're not winning it, but exiting at the group stage from such a favourable group is not good enough.
Biggest match of Rodgers' Liverpool career in terms of where he stands going forward. Fail to win and he's standing on very shaky ground, especially with a trip to Old Trafford coming up on Saturday

Hilarious how unmarked he was for that header he blasted at De Gea.

That second Man Utd goal
Ball hangs in the air for a good 2.5 seconds
Lands inside the 6 yard box
Forster on his line
Werewolf-looking cunt.
Even Mignolet would have come for that. He'd have missed it, but still.

I'd pay so much for MotD's guys to be replaced by James RIchardson and Rafa Honigstein. The PL may not be Honigstein's ral area of expertise, but it doesn't seem to be for Shearer either.

Oh I remember that night. That was crazy. Fucking Luca Toni who scored in the end <3. I miss Luca Toni.

I hear they have named the medical area the Sergio Aguero Memorial Ward
I watched Snowpiercer. It was very good.
