Interesting article in the fail, on Ferguson's intimidation of officials. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2537016/David-Moyes-outburst-sign-hes-not-coping-pressure-hes-not-mean-influence-referees-like-Fergie-did.html?ico=sport^headlines
That confirms what we knew all along. I said it time and again about the subconscious effect of referees 'expecting' Utd to win and inadvertently giving favourable decisions to them, even if it wasn't explicit. And here it is confirmed by one of the most high profile referees there was.
Both Rooney and RVP still out for United's next game: http://www.manutd.com/en/News-And-F...iss-United-v-Swansea-City-Premier-League.aspx With RVP, according to Moyes, it's still going to be a while, guess the old injury prone RVP has returned, injured his thigh from taking a corner, and never to be seen again. Could RVP's injury be down to Moyes' training methods? You can bet RVP's going to be thinking that, a full year fine under SAF, and a season and a half of no injury with Arsenal, and then boom Moyes comes in and he doesn't even last until the new year....Don't forget Moyes did rush RVP back from another injury, when he got this new injury. In Moyes we trust.
Unreal to think that we are currently 14 points ahead of Manchester United. A penny or two for RVP's thoughts.
United showed no fight or desire to get back into the game today. Rolled over and allowed themselves to be trampled on.
Rumours of Mata to United, Mo would be such a **** to let Mata go to United, yeah United are doing ****, but why would you want to give them a world class player to strengthen them? The **** has a soft spot for them, and he also knows that Chelsea don't have to play United again, so all the more better for United to get strengthened as they play both us and City. But Chelsea fans would be ******s in the long term to be happy with a deal, sell a top world class player for short term tactical reasons and just because your coach secretly wants to suck of United?
Mourinho's a ****ing genius. have Manure take points off us and Citeh, and then just use Roman's billions in the summer to buy a better replacement.
Was Wenger wanting to suck off Chelsea/United/City/Barca when he shelled out the numerous amount of talent he has over the years to them? You seriously think Mourinho is selling Mata to United because you think he likes them? We've played United twice already, they're too far behind to catch up and Mata will probably help take points off other teams around us. We wouldn't sell for nothing in return either, my guess is Rooney in the summer.
Somebody suggested on twitter that he may not be willing to sell Mata to United at all... may just be using the transfer and the media to string United along and make them waste their transfer window. Just a supposition.
Now that would be Mourinho esque and I very much hope it's true. Love the bloke and couldn't bare seeing him in a United shirt.
Mo is a United dick sucker, it's a fact with how much he sucks up to them, so it's a pattern if he decides to give them Mata. Mo was in the running and clearly wanted the United job before coming to Chelsea, and he doesn't want to burn bridges, wants to remain nice and friendly, because there is still a good possibility of him becoming United manager down the line.
