feel free to discuss here Man Utd in general XD

Where did you hear about Alan Smith Hazard? I have heard a few things about him going to several different clubs but not as part of an exchange deal.

[Hazard]

Yea lots of teams want him but Man Utd are looking to exchange him with Owen and adding 4million, i saw this on BBC sports yesterday

I think Newcastle will be looking for a little more money that for Owen even though Smith is included. If Owen wants to improve his chancesof winning some trophies then he is going to have to leave Newcastle.

You heard any other rumours? Are we after any defenders at all?

[Hazard]

hmm we are but we haven't bided for anyone yet..but we did buy two Brazilian twins both wing back defenders very young though, they like 16 or 17 i think...i heard they good though

[arthritis]

they may be good enough, but do they possess the experience required going against veteran defenders like John terry, and co. ?


yeahh, saw this news too. i thought alan had passion for the club.

quite a poor thing now.


not literally though.

[Oaken]

The young wing backs probably wont even get work permits so they will be loaned out for a few years. I doubt we will see them in the premiership for a while lol XD

[Hazard]

lol he ain't playing well so i guess he need to move on. yea they ain't going to play yet, there going on loan to Antwerp for the season

[Oaken]

What do you think of Dong Fangzou? It took 3 years on loan I think before he got his work permit and he has not really impressed so far having played a few games last season. I suppose it is only a few games in a new league though so maybe it is too early to judge.

[Hazard]

i agree with you i don't think his good enough for Man Utd first team. I think he was bought for shirt sells Rossi on the other hand is a great player, he just need more opportunities to shine...what do you think

[Oaken]

Rossi has got a lot of potential...I hope he gets the chance he deserves at Utd but it is going to be difficult for him. He got sent off in the Under 21 European Championships didnt he?

[Hazard]

Am not sure i didn't watch all the matches..i dont think that would affect him though. His scored 9 goals in 18 matches for Parma last season...which is good, for a player who has just come to the league

1 goal for every 2 games is pretty good. Newcastle had him on load at one point didnt they? I seem to remember he did pretty well there too

[Hazard]

Yea he didn't really start so Fergy moved him to Parma....he did score a few goals there though

[Oaken]

Do you think we should keep hold of Louis Saha? He is a great player but is just injured too often for him to be considered a regular first team player.

[Hazard]

hmm if we get Eto then we can sell him, but Saha is a great player and scores a lot of goals for us but i guess it the injuries that make him look bad

[Oaken]

Have we declared our interest in Eto?

What do you think of Carrick? and will he play well with Hargreaves?

[Hazard]

i think were trying to make Carrick our future Scholes his ok those assist alot with Man Utd goals score against Roma when we Bun them 7 - 1 i think. I think he will play some games with Hargreaves

[Oaken]

Maybe next season we will see Carrick push forward a little more as Hargreaves is quite similar in that both play more of a hiolding role. Carrick has better vision though and can pull off some great passes. He can score some good goals too whereas Hargreaves does not really hit the back of the net all that often XD

[Hazard]

yea Hargreaves is a more Guttuso type player and Carrick is a more Scholes type player so maybe 08 season they will both start regularly for Utd

[Oaken]

The thing is...if Carrick and Hargreaves both start then there is no room for Scholes

it should be interesting to see how Ferguson deals with that.

[Hazard]

Scholes will be retired then his like 32 now

[Oaken]

Scholes has got a few years left in him yet lol, I mean just look at Giggsy. Everyone had written him off and he had an awesome season. I suppose we have a few 30+ players in the team now though. Good to see Ferguson looking to the future though.

[Hazard]

yea but that was Giggs last season of regular first team football that's why we bought Anderson and Nani

[arthritis]

we.

makes you seem as though you're a board member. hahaha kidding


hmm, giggs is good, scholes is still quality, but slowly declining.

i think i can tackle better than him


-tries it out



okay, maybe not...

[Hazard]

Lmao yea but we do need new blood in the team
Its like 10 years that both of them have been playing for united how crazy is that.
its Show team loyalty, which Arsenal don't have

Just Kidding
