Well he's been hailed as the new Schmeichel...

Kid has Tourette's....but i bet it'll be Fergie doing the uncontrollable shouting / screaming / swearing all the time.

He seems an ok keeper.  I have watched him play a few times and he makes some good saves and he isn't prone to mistakes, he aint a bad buy for like 3 million or sumit but I dont really know how he will adjust to the premiership.  I doubt he is the new Schmieacheakl because I saw his record y'day and he does conceed quite a few goals a season, but we will have to wait and see.

By who?

I can't understand why Robinson hasn't been brought in.  Fergie has never seen Howard play - the only other player he bought without going to see was Forlan.  Fabien is still there so that makes me worried.

Our best signing by far has been Djemba Djemba.  He's a top player.  Bellion is fast but he hardly got in a Sunderland team which was the worst team ever to play in the Premiership.  Ronaldinho will be the big signing but he better not become the next Dwight Yorke.  And I cannot for the life of me understand Kleberson.  We have enough defensive midfielders.  

Still, I'm glad we cashed in on Beckham, he's underperformed since he became media darling again.  It seems he forgot who the only fans were that stood by him while the rest of England was burning effegies of him.  The flying boot story - what a wanker is all I can say.  He gets knocked the fuck out and Fergie has to take the blame to protect the man Beckham was trying to expose.  

If we get 14 million for Veron I'd take it.  

Arsenal are in the shit financially, their whole board are in trouble for lying about the cost of their new stadium - which may not go ahead now.

Chelsea - always have been a team of mercenaries, always will be.

All this 'may not go ahead' bollocks Murdoch's newspapers are pinting is just that, bollocks, building started months ago.

They have signed Johnson, Geremi and now they are gettin Duff.

But I still dont feel they are as strong as the teams above them.  Newcastle play amazing as a team and Man utd and the gunners are always gunna be the top 2 teams of the prem.  Well for a while n e ways.

The Quote about being the next schmeichel was taken from the newspapers said by both Sir Alex and a spokesman from "United".


ill be pleased if Ronaldinho is signed...just what is needed.

Post by: 4 KiN L on July 19, 2003, 06:14:27 AM
he's been hailed as the new shemichael...i wudnt pay no attention to quotes like tht coz just remember every time a new white rapper comes about ppl always sat 'its the next eminem'!

I watched MLS on Ch5 da other week and this is actually quite fuckin fantastic. It's good that his first games for united will be played in the states too.

We give Ronaldinho 'till 2morro then if he aint agreed terms we fuckin him off. It seems he cnt decide between united and barca, but after they're last season why the fuck wud he wanna go n play at barca, uefa cup dooers! What the lad needs is champions lge. We need class in midfield especially since we flogged beckham.

and what happened to buying an experienced defender, i've heard nothin but specualtion and IMO a defender is what united needed most, coz ferdinand most definitely was a flop and a big waste of 30million notes.

and are chelsea having veron or what? i dnt think we shud sell him no more...season b4 last he was a flop but i think than proved hiself last season, £14million smackers in nothing to united anyways and we need backup shud another injury spell occur like last season so tht even wen we do have extensive injuries we dnt fall behind...so i wudnt sell veron.

and arsenal prolly are in the shit financially...and i'd stick wit highbury otherwise if they arnt already deeply in the shit they fuckin will be it always happens.

WTF?????

In 2001 - 2002 we had one of the worst defensive records in the premiership
2002 - 2003 we have the best defence in the Premiership

Down to one man - the best defender in England

Ronaldinho's off too the Nou Camp for a medical apparently, you should've accepted his demands.

id put the defensive record down to the likes of john o'shea breaking into the first team, wes brown back from injury and in particular mikael silvestre's ability and adaptability on the left and in central defence. and gary neville has more than proved hiself this season too...after the derby i wud have sed fuck him off but he rose to the situation and he has done well ever since. if u think ferdinand made the defence u didnt have ur eyes open he was wank all season...he plays good in an england shirt i'll give him that. wasnt worth 30m, the performances he showed for united wud suggest 20m if that. best defender in england? hello campbell if u count club performances...apart from the elbow on solskjaer obviously!

Rio was class last season.  And he will be class for the next 10 seasons in a red shirt.

ur obviously a rio dick rider...one of the kind who had his name printed on ur shirt the moment we signed him, wen he adnt proved fuck all for the club. rio wasnt class last season....and he is still to prove to me that he can be class in a red shirt. enough sed. he might have had a decent game every now and again, rio last season was like veron the season b4. WANK! come to think of it our best run of games, inclusing a few clean sheats and low conceding record was wen rio was injured wasnt it?

Not true. As always the manc loving murdoch press have blown it out of all proportions.

The stadium will cost £317m. Granada are thought to be pumping in £30m once the loans are secured, Highbury will fetch £60-80m and the housing being built as part of the development will bring Arsenal a minimum of £75m profit over and above the costs of building it.

The reason why Arsenal are £43m in debt at present is due to the fact that we have pumped in our own money in to start the clearance works and of course the planning costs. Once the loans are in place Arsenal will be in a position to take back that money for transfers or whatever they see fit.

I see you havent changed over the summer- Rio is the best defender in England is he?

his better and stronger even though he gets injured alot than gary nevile..............i still feel veron proved himself last season but got injured jus as he was gettin into real form, as for djemba, hope he aint takin verons place, but his meant to be a sick player...............wats up with kleberson? he joinin? i remember noticin him in the world cup final looked a good player, dunno if we need him though, but he looked pretty sick
