Congratulations PJX!
And here I am. It's almost 7 and I'm just in bed. I kid you not when I tell you I've spent half an hour sheltering from the rain under an awning at the local metrostation

Magic.
There is utterly nothing on the United transfer front, save for this bollocks about Zaha. Who I've seen pretty persuasively described as a fusion of Wanchope and Bebe.
So basically we get to sit around and watch Chelsea hurl Fiat-sized wedges of cash at strikers.
Bollocks.
And giggle at RAWK, I guess.

Fergie is going to troll us and get Zaha.

Congrats on the baby. Although, being born on teh first of January sucks. In Germany at least, you will be assumed that you don't have any birth certificate :/
Anyway, 15 min of Fireworks was great and all. But we had to wat for it for 2 hours and getting home was nightmare.
Next year, I'll just sleep tight during new years eve.

People keep saying he wants to go to Arsenal.
Which should really tell Arsenal, as well as the other interested clubs, something about the standard of his decision-making.
Yeah, that he wants the 3 years training he will get with us before he moves on to another club to win things. lol

Giovinco is not a realistic target for Liverpool. Don't care how many strikers we sign, he's not going to Liverpool. Born and bred Juventus fan, just came back to us, playing well, we're in Champions League and top of the table, currently has a next-to-rock-solid starting spot, and even if we sign Llorente (for instance), he'll still have at worst a 50% chance, with Vucinic, of starting in one match a week given the competitions we're in.
It's like dc515901395 thinking De Rossi is going to sign for Man City. Maybe, maybe if these weren't players at their favourite squads, where they've built homes and lives, and can win trophies (unlike Liverpool, and increasingly Man City). But even then. I'm sorry guys, but the Premier League isn't what it was even a couple years ago and Serie A is not your feeding ground. La Liga and Bundesliga teams have more quality than the EPL and, though we're still overall behind even the EPL, I think we're taking chunks off your heels.

Jermaine Pennant, future star.
It's just one dude throwing names out of players he thinks we should make inquiries about. It's not consensus (even though United fans would love to believe all of us are that delusional). I've never even heard of Giovinco as a target for Liverpool and no fan would expect an Italian player at the best team in Italy to want to move to a team sitting around 10th in the PL.
But the Bundesliga and La Liga having more quality than the PL is a debatable point. In terms of individually skilled players, there are many in those leagues that shine in the way the game is currently played, and as PL teams make inroads into changing their style to suit the modern game, those young talents with exceptional speed and technique have become more desired.
Giovinco to Liverpool is about as likely as Suarez to Juventus, which is to say, it was always a laughable suggestion.
Yep. I don't know about 'always' when it comes to Suarez though. Maybe there was a small window of opportunity when all that shit went down earlier
I've always rated Suarez, glad he's been doing very well as of late, cunt of not.

I'm with this guy. Forza Galang.
Why would Isco go to a poor team like Man U? If he just waits a year or so he could probably go to Barca or Real, beside doesn't he have homesickness issues? I remember reading that was one of the reasons he went to Malaga.
But at least Man U fans have a reason to expect good players, this dude has been the bane of Arsenal transfer rumours. Almost every rumour that pops up you have deluded fans moaning that we should use the money towards getting Isco instead... as if money is what makes his transfer unrealistic
No, it's the mixture that is so beguiling.
Que ? We're not skint and we're not altogether shite.
True. But if you go to Madrid, it seems that you have to spend every waking hour pissing out PR drivel about how universe-shakingly terrific the club is and how you'd die for the shirt and so on. Or maybe the players do that off their own bat. I dunno.
I've been playing Kagawa for the past 4 months. Turns out he's been injured for quite some time.
And Suarez has been benched.
All going well, he will be part of our plan to keep the ball off Wigan for loooong, looong periods.
Giggs and Scholes.

Aye. We probably deserve to get rogered if we go with Fletcher & Scholes, too.
Get Smalling away from RB, too.
Oh aye, and Ray Wilkins endorses the Lampard move.
Says that Frank will score us seven goals a season.
Fuckin Evra is on course for 10. Frank is a good man, but I would be staggered if we gave a molecule of a toss about his contract situation.
And an arousingly masculine speaking voice.
