@J-K 47,
What's up bro?

Almost had a heart attack on saturday but good to see we were able to come up with all 3. I hope we handle the gra gra am sure Bolton will put up. My studios are filled with new tracks and I will release all this weekend. 

Scared stiff of Roma. Remember some years back when  we looked so good for the Champs League ,  . guess teams that beat us , Leverkussen, Porto. I hope we can do these guys in again (over 2 legs)

WAN UNITED

losing 8 points in 4 games and remaining joint leaders on points is good. Problem is this is not the time to be so generous.

This is the business end of the season and winning one game in 6 spells  emergency and not "nothing spoil".No doubt there could be more twists but  with 8 games to go even the most optimistic goon can only hope against hope. 

Great titles coming!

WAN UNITED

@loyiks,
I agree 2 to gorab

Meanwhile, those titles will soon be coming to a theatre near you. In the studios working on something with 'angel' Gabriel  and apostle John for this weekend . Watch out


WAN UNITED

Just saw this topic .

Very interesting, though if you were to interview sports followers WORLDWIDE the answer would be pretty obvious.

Always wondered why a game where the only contact with the foot is when you take a 'penalty'(I think that's what it's called )is called football. Sounds as stupid as calling THE REAL FOOTBALL(ok soccer) handball because you use the hands for throw-ins.

England exported(not invented) modern football(the real one that is) to the World and it has become the most popular sport . Outside of the US in how many countries is American  Football the No 1 sport. Typical Yankee reasoning would probably be that everyone's too blind to see what they see.

Those that are exclusively passionate about both sports would probably see nothing good in the other but a good judge might just be worldwide interest which American football ? has not, does not and probably can never command. I cannot say the same for their basketball(yes it was invented in the US by Naismith?) which is a lot more fun to watch and  the name makes a lot more sense (they aim for the basket  )

Poll should be updated to include CR. He is a contender surely.

Look at these silly Scumbots

It was 5 now its 3, soon it will be 0 YOU ALL ARE CLOWNS!! How is that any different than what we have been hearing all season; CHANGE THE FLIPPING RECORD!!

Before boxig day, ya''ll took the lead and i distinctively remember some Scummies telling me that; "thats the end of Arsenal's challenge"!!

2 months down the line and we are still on the same boat. ARSENAL WILL CRUMBLE, IT WAS 5 NOW ITS 3, UNITED ARE ON THE RISE!!

Nigga pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

Get back to us when you are actually ahead (by even 1 point), till then, keep deluding yourselves.

We go to Stamford Bridge and OT Don't ya'll go to SB as well , have you also forgotten you also get to play your husband penultimate game (West Ham).

Points will still be dropped by all.

Torment Arsenal my goat's balls!! The only people that are tormented are you scumtwats, what with your team not having the balls to top the table. All your 10-nil performances will soon be followed by some 1-nil loss, because Rooney was suspended!? OR IS THAT NOT THE PATHETIC SING SONG YOU ALL USE!!

If ya'll are the champs, LEAD THE FLIPPING TABLE AS CHAMPS!!, not wait for other teams to do your work for you

KEEP TORMENTING US FROM BEHIND!! We don't mind

Come end of season, ARSENAL WILL BE PREM CHAMPIONS (Ya'll can suck a Scum lollipop for all we care ).

@Loyika,
This sounds so much like one William Gallas?


WAN UNITED

@JK,
Been rather tied up but my cameo appearances     will soon be over   . Meanwhile I notice I am not alone in these cameo roles
Note however that offline I DO torment those guys.   .  trust me

It's so funny . I told a Chelsea fan(they don't seem to be a lot of them these days) that Sunday was their best chance for a trophy this season. He blew his top . As it is it's now one down and still counting.

The Gayns? oh well 11 games and it's back in our hands. All we need do is beat Arsenal and like Debo says if other results cancel out(he said it then  oh) we win the League. Still a long way to go but am enjoying it cos this is when we are usually strongest.


@Debo,
Howdy bro. Now it's still in our hands right?
Really didn't want to rub it in but there was a[b] Gollywood [/b] 3rd rate low budget comedy  2 weeks ago by the Emmanuel Brothers titled Flying Kick and Diving Mutant Turtle .  . a tale of 2 brothers  

Still busy at the studios on some adaptation of the christmas song that goes on about the 12 days to Christmas . Starts something like "then it was 4 , baby now it's 3 , oh it's 2 , oh  .  . dejavu"  Catch my drift

WAN UNITED

@JK47,
Howdy?Loooooonnnnngggg time Good 2 see we are still very much on track. Am happy that our injury problems had been dealt with earlier and we don't have any really worrisome ones presently.

On Wes, I think both parties need to strike a balance and give 'n' take. If he wants a little more lets give him. Wes is dodgy but definitely better at defending now than Monsieur (Yes I will shoot no I will pass, ehmn.   . )Silvestre(I think ) His game no doubt has improved but not near enough. Anderson in Scholes absence has stamped his name on the shirt ,. . arguably ditto for Nani.

We cannot say Wes is truly our first choice RB but we still need him. He however also needs to be seen to make a compromise so it doesn't look as if he left solely cos of cash. There are players in the Prem who'd never win jack with their clubs but are arguably better than Wes. Compromise is the key word here.


WAN UNITED

Howdy guys?
It's always so good when the boys do the talking on our behalf.
Anytime MU plays there are 100 reasons why we must lose . But we shut them up with our play. Even when we lose we learn and simply move on. We're not afraid or ashamed to lose. When it does happen we become stronger for it

The good thing about the Newcastle bludgeon is the scary message it sends to some of these teams.  .  .almost like 30% of the work done.

11 games to go and it's looking like the trophy ain't going anywhere.  

@Reds,
The lesson of the post Scholes return is instructive . Compare those games to the last 2 . Don't even bother.The last 2 games Arsenal and Newcastle point to the easing out albeit slightly and respectfully of the old guard . There is a change of guard and guys are ready(hungry) to step in.Baba is seeing (or at least trying out what many Reds have been advocating) .   ,    .and we'd be better for it .
@Jackal,
I agree with you . Brown has been loyal but also needs to pay back Baba's loyalty. Methinks it's in his best interest to stay. He can win even more stuff staying. Wish he makes the best choice for himself.  


WAN UNITED  

Looked at that stuff again and I am not fully convinced that there was anything particularly wrong(or disrespectful) with it considering that Nani was always under pressure from the Hoyte all the time he was with the ball. Really it's the job of the opposition to make people pay for doing unnecessary things with the ball. Please read  the book 'MY BAD' by Rene Higuita(90 World Cup)
I seen JayJay CR and Ronaldinho do stuff commentators refer to as sheer brilliance or ' pure class'. Some a lot worse than this . I however agree that Latin born and African players tend to show off just a bit . What will the game be without them . Nuff said.

@Loyiks, MCKIT,Debosky and Co,
Sorry for the hammering. No need to rub it in , my guys have done that eloquentl.  So in the spirit of equity justice and fairplay I will not release the titles I promised . 

However my roving eye  caught a 3rd rate low budget slapstick tragi-comedy  starring  the The Emmanuel Brothers titled "The Up , The Mid and The Ground" . GOLLYWOOD will soon rival Nollywood at this rate.


Happy for Nani . He puts in so much like Ronny did when he first came. Am sure Baba will gently mold him into a more consistent player


WAN UNITED

Thusrsday, .    .Saturday please come tomorrow and let Friday come later.

This will be the match of the season and I hope it will be another classic(few of them aren't)

Predictions?

Wait for new titles

Keep scoring

WAN UNITED

Congratulations on the win.

MCKIT,
How you dey? These erections are in order at least till you guys begin to misfire .  

Ronaldo is not a striker so  his goals will always be a bonus. The noise about his scoring is just that he's standing toe-to-toe with strikers right on their turf and he's still doing his own job as well.Even if he does not finish highest scorer in the league his 19 goals so far are a fantastic return for one whose main task is not scoring. If indeed he finishes highest then he would no doubt have been the best player this season .

Meanwhile,Adebayor was way ahead of CR on the chart earlier in the season so what's the big deal now?


WAN UNITED  

nyabinghi:
The stats prove man u is class above the french team playing in the EPL. Does that clear your doubts.

The Devil created the gun to kill the holder of the Gun. The Guns will end up killing the gunners on saturday.
Don't bother watching the game because u will weep.

Actually these stats prove that there's not much to choose on the day when both sides play. The difference prolly in the trophies won.

Arse has had a fantastic season so far(emphasis mine). These last 12 actually will be more important than the previous 26. Have they done enough to win. Absolutely NOT! Both us and yes Chelsea still have a look in, yes and Chelsea.For the gayners who believe that the league's just about wrapped up good luck to them.

@Reds,
We've put ourselves in a bit of a tight spot . 1 point in 6 is cause for some concern especially as our closest rivals did not stumble during the period. I am confident though that we play our strongest and most determined footie towards the very end of the season. We just need to keep winning our games and make the right selections. A 5point gap is a very realistic target to chase. We've clawed back a lot more from Newcastle Arsenal in the past when the league looked all but wrapped up. We have the ability to do it again. All we need do is keep up the pressure which we relaxed in the last 2 weeks. I'll take a review after the next 4 premiership games. Enough said.

Winner of Saturday's game gains temporary bragging rights.Also the satisfaction of knocking the other out will be pleasant.Saturday presents the perfect response to the Goons. They seem on top of their game and what's better than making them eat the humble pie. Then dejavu would set in .  .  .

@Loyiks,
I dey bro.
My bad. Actually it's still 13 for you guys. Don't count your nuts before they are .  .  .   .

@Jackal,
My point on Ronaldo is that guys would keep changing criteria on which he's judged. Surely his prolific goal scoring is a bonus and not a necessity. Folks have come up with stuff like he doesn't pass, he dribbles too much , he misses goals, he dives , he's selfish,he's not good at set pieces, etc. Each time he responds new stuff will come. The current one is he does not show up in big games . Definition of big games: Games United lose where Ronny is not at his inspirational best. Therefore Man U Roma would not be a big game,Man U Milan (OT) will not be a big game, Man U Chelsea will not be a big game and so many others.

Jackal the very fact that Ronny's platinum credentials is being subjected to this extreme scrutiny says a lot . If you were a seer picture Ronaldo in a Real shirt(the Good Lord forbid for the next 15 years ) and tell me if these same guys will not be singing his praises to high heavens like they did Ronaldinho 3 seasons ago.

Chacal

Its an open race only in your mind, your players have to respond, and like i said; UNITED WILL DROP POINTS AS WELL!!

Your penultimate game is at the bridge i think , so that doesn't look good if you ask me.

Head to Head games will take care of themselves, we are in the driving seat, and its out of your hands, the only thing that involves us, is our game with you scumtwats at OT. And that can go either way.

So until then, just sit silently and watch (or pray that we get defeated by what ever fantasy team you can conjure up).

OUR DESTINY IS IN OUR HANDS!!

GOONER 89

Loyiks,
By the 3rd game of the season it was already out of our hands cos you had a potential 8 point lead.Because you are yet to play your match it is still  VERY much IN OUR HANDS. With 13 games to go there are still more twists in this tale.  


WAN UNITED

We played shit yesterday but against a disciplined and highly motivated City. We played badly but saying that downplays the effort City put in yesterday. We lost to a better side, sharper, more solid and tactically superior. Shit happens.

@Jackal,what's up
I disagree with the international break stuff.That's the way of Jose the Lip and Queiroz should not have broached that topic. We lost we lost . When we lost to the Hammers there was no break or to City earlier in the season. And we've also won games immediately after such breaks so?

On Ronaldo,
Opinions will always be divided since he's a United player. Ruud got the same stick until he moved to Madrid and then folks started screaming Hosanah  he's the type of striker they need.If Kaka had been a United player a lot of these folks will not be so gracious with their comments.  

The guy is a fantastic player period. If he falters in a couple of games out of the 50 something odd games in a season it does not make him less of the star that he is.
Thierry Henry against Barca(06) was busy squandering elementary chances which a blindfolded pregnant septuagenarian    will tuck away with ease. He played shit for France in 2002 leading a contingent of misfiring strikers with no goal in 270 minutes of football losing to a shitty team like Senegal(yes by World standards Senegal is a shitty team,that was their first World Cup). Yet Goons always have erections about the same Henry.

Folks , Ronaldo's play will continue to do the talking. Because of the extremely high standards he has set people are bound to want to judge him using the most stringent criteria. Because of his exceptional quality he will keep giving them answers. If Adebayor overtakes him today on the scorers chart the next thing will be "Ehen, you see he can't even score goals ordinary Adebayor is scoring more than him if RVP comes back nko".  . bla, bla.The first response comes this saturday Gayners be warned

@MCkit

MU would have made CIV look like scum yesterday 

How u dey?!

WAN UNITED

Everything that could go wrong went wrong with us yesterday(good Ol' Murphy). Ivory Coast is fast becoming our new husband
The 3 main problems I think we had were

1. Mobility: movement on and off the ball
2. Desire :  hunger to win
3. Technical depth: no apparent technical brilliance noticed on the day

1 Mobility: Time was when teams feared to attack us cos our counter exposed them . Each time we got the ball we spent so long dressing it(Mikel) that the Ivoriens regrouped and could thwart our efforts. Mikel takes 8 touches and is still in the centre of midfield Zokora's 4 takes him to our 18. Guys were hardly moving off the ball to give the guy with the ball options. It was almost like a practice session at some point. In the past we could kill the game when our opponents are too fast but then we could kill them with our speed when we wanted .

2. Time was when you lead Naija 3-0 and the boys were still struggling. That's why Olympic 96 against Brazil was a classic . Or Nigeria Cameroun CAN final in 2000. That never say die spirit used to be in our blood. There was no desire to win yesterday. We were playing like big boys against Drogba,Kolo,Eboue,Dindane. ? ? ? It was worse when Kalou scored , our shoulders simply dropped. At some point it looked like Ivory Coast was the one trying to equalise.

3. There was no noticeable brilliant technical input . When plan A fails there's Ai,Aii, Aiii, Bi C and so on.From the first 5 minutes of the game it was obvious that the keeper's composure was suspect . That was a weak link that could have been exploited maximally. The substitutions Okonkwo and Makinwa did not show someone watching the same game we watched yeaterday.
Too many questions.

All we need to do is go back to the basics . Some are:

1. Pass pass and pass. Do not hold onto the ball needlessly.
2. Move on and off the ball. It makes marking extremely difficult. It multiplies your options.
3. Mark from when you lose the ball, You truncate their attack before they look threatening. You pressure them into mistakes.

Very simple stuff but our game will look better and with better technical input we might get the kind of result we need against Mali.

@Mustay what's up


WAN UNITED

ttbd

Mustay? ? ?

@doyin13,
I like your sense of humour. Keep it up man.

@Jackal,
Howdy man.I agree that Dudu has not quite been the hero he was hyped to be. Remember the hype was done by the English press so you can't swallow all h/l/s. However I think if his second half picks up from where his first half ended the hype would not have been totally off. Methinks some guys catch up a bit slower than others. Maybe if he wasn't in Ass things might have been different,just maybe.

Gotta remind you of our own dudley Diego who later became deadly Diego in Villareal. While I can't fault your arguments only at the end of the season can we truly confirm . We await.

Meanwhile what's happening 2 us this January

@Lordi,
Teams leading by December win the League because thereafter they continue winning more matches than their opponents not just because they were leading by December.    Before the last 3 seasons the stats show December leaders won the League only thrice in 10 seasons or some other funny stat. That's just what they are stats

I'm still very confident that we will get back to our winning ways. Like I always say better I win 2 and lose 1 than draw 3. We've lost 3 games so far this season,not good but still very much within touching distance of Ass. A 2point game is so volatile afterall we were 5 points(potentially behind the same team not too long ago.

Let the (premature) ejaculations continue

Keep scoring,

@Reds,
This game looked lost by the end of the first half even though we were ahead.

The stats did not show we deserved even one point. Our guys looked liked they had partied all night. No spirit ,losing possession stupidly and playing just like our disastrous second leg against Milan. I silently hoped we won't be punished but that was hopeless. We DID NOT DESERVE ANYTHING out of this game, and we got nothing.
If we had scored the pen maybe the tide might have changed but sometimes the god of soccer does not give handouts to the indolent. That was not United today and we know it. We fielded a relatively strong side and must admit we played shit. Today's lessons

1.As always you win the League by winning your games not when your rivals slip
2.Still looking like a 3 horse race
3.Still many twists and turns
4.There's nothing like minnows.
5.It ain't over till the fat lady sings and she's brooding right now

JK,
If those guys do all the playing they might just score and Arnfield is a hopeless place to go behind. Ask Arse.

I think our firepower will take their test this weekend. Against  Roma last season I had predicted that Ronaldo will come of age in Europe(He scored his first and has been doing so ever since)

I make bold to say that the Holy Trinity will as from Sunday become the most feared trio in the Prem. Goals will be scored by at least 2 of them . It won't be as boring as many are predicting. After Sunday every team in the Prem will be scared silly(of us I mean  ). Again quote me.

@teemoe,
Only in the area of missing chances not work rate,vision,ball winning,fighting spirit or sheer class. I quite agree Carlito is way up there on those planks.


WAN UNITED

Fantastic player Tevez but in him we have our own Adebayooooor(that is when it comes to missed chances).

Everyone seems fit now so it will all come down to tactics and we seem to have had the edge in the last few seasons(after the exit of Danny the Spoil sport Murphy). Hargo/Gerrard will be interesting to watch.

I'm happy Liverpool beat Marseilles cos it means they they will not be sore when we play(like they were against Besiktas and Marseilles)

Watch out for plenty of incidents. I hope we pull through. Predictions?
