Same here. Let him be magnificent for England, but let Mourinho not be deceived into settling for Young as first choice.



Weird as this might sound, I think we can win Iceland. Iceland players are always in defensive beast mode when they see any top team, but they may consider us as no threat and come out to attack us, leaving a room for us to shock them.

Just like I predicted, Slimghost, still doubting the Nostradamus in me? tongue grin

The mediocres were Moses and Iheanacho. I think Mikel did well in his withdrawn role

Mikel did just ok today, I don't have much criticism for him but you see that Plonker called Moses eeh, Dude was a waste.
He should thank his stars he got an assist, useless player.

That was a good win. so happy. Atleast we gave ourselves a chance to qualify.


I still feel like our players like too many touches on the ball before they pass sometimes.

Moses needs to improve his crossing and ihenacho taking corners was also a very bad idea.

Looking forward to knocking out Argentina.

We just need a draw to qualify irrespective of result elsewhere

I'm not sure about drawing or winning Argentina o. We have to avoid the various lapses in concentration in our game that was evident for many moments in today's match, against Argentina to stand a chance of qualifying.

Glad that Mitrovic has lost that first game nervousness. He's a proper striker. If anything is to stop Serbia from going far, it would be their defence. Can't imagine Ivanovic still playing.

I'm sure Mourinho won't be happy with this 'cos he wants Matic back as soon as possible.

in as much as I didn't watch the ancestors play, I'm sure some had as much influence as Ronaldo had in United but I'm almost sure not more than one had it in such a short span.

do you know that if they line up a select 11 from all eras in the English League, Ronaldo must be there? maybe you'll understand this better when you check the caliber of players that will be excluded from such a selection. that should tell you his contribution to the British game, not just for us, was enormous.

If the question was framed like :greatest player ever to play for united ? Ronaldo na the likely answer.

Cr7 no fit be our greatest ever player. His peak at Utd was no where close to the kind of player he will later become and his stay here was too brief. Rooney and Giggs go enter that conversation before Ororo.

I disagree! The fact that he won the world footballer of the year as a United player puts him ahead of both players.

Owen win ballon d'or while playing for Liverpool would you say he served Liverpool better than Gerrard ?

John Terry score that penalty for Moscow and Ronaldo best season here wouldn't have been different from wetin Rooney do for that season we Jam Barça for final.

Honestly, it's a matter of opinion or perspective. I have come across Liverpool fans who rate Owen ahead of Gerrard and it's quite understandable. Gerrard never achieved what Owen did as a Liverpool player.

There is no perspective in this issue, people should educate themselves. George Best and Bobby Charlton were greater players than Ronaldo for United and it is not even close. Whatever Ronaldo did later in his career does not count in his United resume.

Bobby Charlton won the champions league/european cup, scored 2 goals in the final, was in 3 consecutive Ballon d'Or podiums, won the Ballon d'Or, was world class for almost TEN YEARS at United and you think Ronaldo's 3 years is near him. 199 league goals from midfield including 8 double digit seasons.

George Best also won the Ballon d'Or, was on 2 podiums, scored in the champs/european cup final and had about 6 world class years scoring double league figures and countless assists. 137 league goals including 7 double digit seasons.

Denis Law won the Ballon d'Or, 3rd top scorer in United history, won the European cup, champs league, about 7 world class seasons.

They all played longer for United, were great for United for more years, and scored more goals for United than Lord Ororo.

Overall Ronaldo is obviously the better player but for United those 3 were greater.

Raul is a greater Madrid player than Zidane and Ronaldo de Lima though we know Zidane and Ronaldo were better players overall.

Del Piero is a greater Juventus player than Zidane.

Xavi and Eto'o are greater Barca players than Maradona.

You are the one who is off course. Go back a few pages to the origin of the debate, it was an assertion that Ronaldo was the greatest United player ever.

No, it is not. Any Liverpool fan that rates Owen ahead of Gerrard in "Liverpool greatest player" category needs a lobotomy ASAP.
