    You seriously rate Smalling higher than Jones?

    Interesting. I don't.

    I think he's a half decent right back at best. Evans and Jones are better centre halves.

    There is a lot of deadwood that needs replacing with real world class quality.

    P.S. At least one or two of the posters can't blame Giggsy for the defeat

    Would that be the same "deadwood" that helped to win the league by 11 points last season ?

    Last season the league was of a very poor quality. If you think that these players are hood enough then fair enough. However these players aren't as good as Old Trafford have become used to seeing. After all, how many would you define as world class other than rvp and possibly rooney?

    Is there any reason this thread is only 10 pages long when it's about your Derby? Our Southampton match thread is about 21 pages long <whistle>

    Based on knowing what I'm watching, which is clearly beyond you.

    He has had lot's of injuries by the way, just so you know. You really should know that given you're obviously a sky sports watching drone who can't form his own opinion without being steered by the media.

    Dunno mate, maybe we were all actually watching the match instead of pissing about on the internet? Yours wasn't on TV for a start.

    Oh I see. I thought it might have had something to do with the outcome of the game.

    Ruff may be right as i am surprised it`s got to 10 pages, there were only about a half dozen posts during the game.

    Some people thought Jimmy Savile was funny too. Very original.

    Maybe its because we know when to move on. We live in the present and look forward to the future, not obsess over the past like some rivals of ours.

    We're also much less in love with the sound of our own electronic voices than many of the Liverpool board members <whistle>

    You can be rather outspoken (in a controlled fashion of course) on occasion.

    Based on what? Never heard anyone say anything about Jones on Sky, apart from how wonderful he is. Just keep making **** up don't you?
