United were dumb not to get him in the first place. All of the overtures he made indicated he wanted to come to the club, and look what he's managed to do with Chelsea - with a team that was probably worse on paper than Man Uniteds at the start of the year. Would be amazed if he moved over to them now really.

Say what?

CHELSEA SQUAD
1 Petr Cech
2 Branislav Ivanovic
3 Ashley Cole
4 David Luiz
7 Ramires
8 Frank Lampard
9 Fernando Torres
11 Oscar
12 John Mikel Obi
14 Andre Schurrle
15 Mohamed Salah
16 Marco van Ginkel
17 Eden Hazard
19 Demba Ba
21 Nemanja Matic
22 Willian
23 Mark Schwarzer
24 Gary Cahill
26 John Terry
27 Nathan Ake
28 Cesar Azpilicueta
29 Samuel Eto'o
33 Tomas Kalas
46 Jamal Blackman
40 Henrique Hilario

Chelsea's second 11 would likely be better than Utd's first.

That'll be expensive.....

Rooney is about the only one who's come of this season at Utd ahead ... Improved contract etc ...

Indeed, but he's also come out with his head up in terms of his effort & performances IMO

[uk66fastback]

True, but he's either very good or very bad though ... He doesn't seem to have any other level atm!

Think De Gea has established himself as a quality keeper, the howlers are few and far between now.
Januzaj has shown glimpses of real potential. These next 4 games could really see his talent if Giggs cuts him loose.

[GTO-3R]

I hope Giggs gives some if the younger lads a go too, get Wilson on and see what he can do!

I've got a feeling we will get Van Gaal and Mourinho knows it, hence why he's been acting the way he has.

Or maybe he's just hacked off that we've thrown away the league with a series of poor performances against teams we should have beaten, with the line led by a striker (and I use the term loosely) who has scored four goals this season, yet earns £175k a week.

I'd be looking tetchy.

The odds have been slashed on Mourinho to take over. They where 40/1 now 7/1.

That wouldn't surprise me. He'd also be the only one to tell SAF to take a hike.

I thought I posted the odds this morning.

So you did. I just copied an article I just read.

Remember how we got used to hearing this sort of thing from Moyes?

"we will try to make it difficult for norwich"


Giggsy comes out and gives it

"We're Man United. We're at home. I expect to win"

Just one sentence makes a massive difference

ETA:

"I cant wait for 5:30 Saturday, I know the place will be rocking and the fans will get behind us. Ive been looking forward to it"

"Fergie was the first person to call. I wanted advice on what to expect. Who better to ring? Why wouldnt I?"

"my message to the players has been that I trust them. I told them to go and score goals and entertain. Thats my philosophy"

"only Rafa and Robin are unfit, everyone else is available"

Bruce Forsyth is free at the minute. Saw him doing exercises on the One Show last night...

Giggs will be kept on as manager. You read it here first

I actually think he would do a good job. I can't see it happening though. Not for a few years

On Twitter yesterday someone said Fergie has hinted at exactly this, they want someone in for 2-3 years and then for Giggs to take over

We all know a good presser doesn't make a good team or performance but he has already sounded more comfortable that Moyes did in 10 months

“I want to see goals, tackles, players taking players on and getting the crowd up. I want the passion that should come with being a Manchester United player. I want players to play with passion, speed, tempo and be brave with imagination. I'll tell the players just to try to enjoy yourself, express yourself.”

[anonymous-user]

Giggs was asked about whether he would continue to play. He said 'Yes. I've just given myself a five year contract.'
