Manchester United Thread [2007/2008]

Nani, Scholes, Hargreaves, Ronaldo, Rooney and Tevez. Yeah i think Lyon is going home empty-handed.

Presumably that's the mideifled.....right?

So what...4-4-1-1?

 

[Help?]

Something like that. I'd call it 4-4-2, but you know how Ronaldo, Nani and Rooney play. It might be 4-4-2, might be 4-4-1-1 or 4-1-3-2 or 4-1-4-1 or 4-2-4 who knows? Main thing is that there will be some quick counter-attacks.

 

[1966+2006]

According to Soccernet, the midfield will be Nani, Ronaldo, Carrick and Fletcher.
With Anderson playing as well and no Tevez.
This would pretty much suck.

 

[newbie original]

Yes, that's confirmed. No Tevez or Hargreaves....this is essentially your 4-0 FA Cup squad against Arsenal. The only swap is Ronaldo for Park.

 

[Help?]

Dammit eurosport got me all excited. I don't know about this line-up, on one hand it looks bad that we have only 1 striker, but on the other hand we got Ronaldo, Nani and Anderson. So we'll see what Fergie got up his sleeve.

Have faith in SAF

 

[Filipower]

no, have faith in the Portuguese ..


oh yeah bitches don't think we don't know you owe us

 

[Daz]

Far FAR too many wasted chances.

 

[adedawson]

yeah wasn't too impressive. Job was done though. Who's next Arsenal through too. Beat AC at home. Hope Chelsea and Liverpool get through. All English final's would be nice

 

[newbie original]

Tough.....there was a good chance of it happening last year.

Anyways, good win.

 

[Help?]

No way man. Same country finals suck always.

 

[Fernandez]

Poor game tbh thanks to 4-5-1. We should have lined up with 4-4-2 and take the game to them. We got through, thats what matters.

Yeh both teams generally no how to cancel each other out and neither team will want to take too bigger risks throwing men forward.

 

[adobe_sun]

some periods from the game yesterday were pretty bothering. Such a gray play sometimes, no ideas in the midfield. At the end of the game there were some chances to score more, but yet again Lyon are a quality side. Plus i think out lads didn't put too much strength into that game.. There are still 3 cups to fight for.. The biggest battles are yet to come..

I was thinking more along the line of a little English pride since we didn't qualify for euros. Not that the teams are that English :amika:

Another thing. Nani and his play acting is doing my nut in. Every friggin game, ******* drama queen, worse yet it seems to be effecting ronaldo in a bad way again. I saw them both go down yesterday grasping wrong parts of there body.

its just embarrassing, not even eduardo made a face like that.

 

[goal_machine84]

job done on to the next one

I don't condone it but he will learn in due time. SAF needs to have a word with him.

 

[Hans]

Haha, both Nani and Ronaldo are anoying as ****s I admit, but damn 30 goals in 30 matches for a winger ? Ronaldo is "The Real World Player of the Year" man, screw FIFA !!!!!

 

[Fernandez]

If he wins the Champions League/Euro 2008, that will confirm it.

 

[Help?]

I don't know man, he might still need to score 30 more goals before season ends for FIFA to realize that he is the best.
