I preferred Alcarazs goal - proof that the diving header goal hasn't died out just yet.

Exactly. These answers are all similar and all started after Les Reeds statement.

Yep, as ridiculous as that.

From attack to defense i assume? Or were we playing 2 sweepers and then the two fullbacks and wanyama?

Naismith fell on top of him and was trying to get back up, he wasn't holding him down. And i know what the rules say, but it's only recently that refs have changed the way they give free-kicks. They used to always give a free-kick or a pen for accidental handball, and a booking as well if it was deliberate. You can say it's unfair to punish someone for an accident, but not all fouls are deliberate either.

Christ, what have you seen to be able to make a judgement?

Osman one for me he was going down before there was contact, right decision. Lovren fouled Naismith, should have been a pen. There were also 2 clear handballs, so we should have had 2 pens as well. Don't give me any of this ball to hand rubbish - if the arms are out and it strikes your arm, it's handball. It seems that as long as your eyes are shut or your face is turned away you can wave your arms in the air and still not risk handball.

Why don't you then? Most bookies will give you odds if you go in and ask.

Think the players have been told the same as Poch - just ignore any questions about transfers from now on. The club has made it's position quite clear.

Signed on a 4 year deal in 2011 so runs till 2015, no idea if he's signed an extension since then.

Thought Davis was MOTM.

How many from the academy have we used in our squad this season?

I think it's still 50/50 if Shaw will go. All depends if someone is willing to pay £30million up front.

It's literally two players different, and the replacements aren't much worse.

Denied they're going to sign them or denied they're briefing the press?

Whenever Bale is in the news for doing something incredible in La Liga/Champions League I always picture that free-kick V Derby in my head.

Christ, you just get more and more moronic. When you say players leave do you mean the entire squad and we start again from scratch?

Ohhh he meant Januzaj. I thought he was referring to Kagawa and couldnt believe what i was reading

So if Lallana stays here for his entire career and is fortunate with injury, could wind up being second on the all-time appearance list.

People seem to think that just because Bale turned into an attacking player that every decent left back can now do the same.

This is another reason I want us to keep Shaw...I don't want to sell off our homegrown players for big money and then get in cheaper foreign alternatives.

What visible actions would show that we're not selling anyone? For that to be proven we'll have to wait until the summer window is shut.

Are you suggesting he'd buckle? Nothings fazed him so far.

Yep, and he clearly hasn't worked at all other than the one or two hours it would have taken for his interviews to date. Maybe we should get 24 hour webcams set up in the offices at St Marys so people can see exactly how many emails, faxes etc. he's sending a day.

People go on about the time it took Ferguson to get results, but wasn't there also a sh*t manager before him who did nothing for a season and got sacked? Maybe the next United manager will be the doozy.
