Why would you do this to yourself.
Oh wait, no fun allowed, I see
I play like that since FIFA10 and it just feel more natural to me. Never quite understood all the hate tho.

Time to renew United membership I hope to get to a couple of games this season.
Nightmares of Nigeria. Spain let you taste the flavour of victory, in the end it's futile.
They always bring it. A matter of time.
Looks out of place.

I recognize Cesc isn't fit.
I don't see Varela getting that much game time unless he's some sort of wonder kid. With Fabio and Buttner too there is the option to use both on the wing (with Fabio on either) if it is needed, both are decent going forward and can defend.

Probably worth it, you must be a beast at all those skill games now, I fuck up the manual shooting ones really bad.
Yup, Silva's ruining every attempt at progression that he's involved in.
Oh, then Mata should play.

David Silva sucks. He peaked already.
It's not as if I'm trolling and saying Baines is shit, like Lunchbox, I just think that a central midfielder and a winger should be our priority. He's the best left back in the league, but it's a matter of prioritising and strengthening where we need it most. I perceive more weakness in central midfield than I do at left back.
I'm not even clamouring for marquee signings - United fans have been calling for a central midfielder for years and we've come very close to signing a few, so it's obviously an area that the coaching staff and Fergie recognised needed strengthening.
There is plenty of cover in the center back and left back positions. Buttner was brought in as cover for Evra and Fabio had a good loan period at QPR. If he's half as good as his brother then he deserves a shot at nailing that position. Give Fabio his chance, wait and see how he performs, Evra can start the season as backup and then react accordingly next year. Spunking £15m right now just doesn't strike me as a good move.
Signing Varela for £1m was a good move that makes sense, since he was cheap, young with lots of potential, re-sale value and will keep Rafael honest at right back.
Signing the best left back in the league at 28 years of age for £15m when that position already has a lot of depth, and when there are other positions that need more attention doesn't make much sense to me.
I do fully admit that I wasn't too keen on signing van Persie given his age, injury record and cost, so I could easily be completely wrong about the net benefits that Baines would bring, but I wouldn't want to see that signing kill off aspirations in other areas.
No cos ur wrong spain win everything even all the pundits say spain r best ur just jealous and wrong.
That's pretty much been the response whenever I've said something similar.

Keown loving biscuits.
He sort of has. His last 'world class' spell ended 18 months ago. In the PL last season he had the same goals/assists as Aaron Lennon FFS.
As are the rest of the world.
