1-0 Scum, Drogba rises to the occasion...

 

Drogba the Pensioner, 1-0 Chelsea

I wish a few of our seniors could perfom like that, and Eto'o with a couple for Everton at Burnley.

 

You never know, perhaps Rio will surprise us with the winner tomorrow...

 

Here's his playbook - top five out of only eight United goals:-

Rio: My top five goals:-

OK, a top five from eight United goals isn't the most difficult dilemma, but given Rio's favourable views of his own finishing skills we indulged him in this selection of an admittedly quality quintet. Here's our description of the goals, watch the video above for Rio's...

5. Dynamo Kyiv 23.10.07 Ferdinand got United heading in the right direction in Ukraine, powering home Ryan Giggs' free-kick to clinch a 4-2 group stage win en route to Champions League glory.

4. Swansea 12.05.13 The last Old Trafford goal of Sir Alex Ferguson's reign, and Rio certainly made sure he scored it. Lurking at the far post, he thumped his shot from Robin van Persie's corner into the back of the net to seal victory.

3. Liverpool 22.01.06 Having recently bagged his first (Wigan) and second (West Brom) goals for United, Rio was on a roll. His injury-time header against Liverpool, again in front of the Stretford End, was the best of his three strikes in 2005/06.

2. Newcastle 12.01.08 In a 6-0 romp - featuring Cristiano Ronaldo's only hat-trick for United - Rio got in on the act by racing onto Wayne Rooney's lofted pass and steering home a first-time volley without breaking stride.

1. Liverpool 22.10.06 For technique and execution, this was easily the best of the bunch. Bringing the ball down from the heavens, Rio controlled it on his right, shifted his balance onto his left, and fired an unstoppable shot into the top corner.

 

1-1 at Old Trafford, Chelsea will feel like they've lost that one...

 

1-1 so a happy ending for everyone, except Ivanovic & Mourinho of course.

 

Now here's a cross dressing tourist for you (Korean?)

"And you thought the half and half scarf was bad..."

 

quite agree....detest MUFC....and their know nothing glory hunting non Manc dwelling fans.

 

I just caught up with the Burnley v Everton match.

Considering Burnley hardly brought in any new players following their promotion, and Sam Vokes is still injured, they put on a quite a good home performance today, with players working & trying hard, but despite that, in the end they were just outclassed by Everton.

Quite honestly, they're on the same level as us, more stable as a team without all our wasted money of transfer.

The commentator mentioned that Burnley were a strong candidate for relegation, but at least the club was holding to their principles in not going into debt like ourselves. With parachute payments after relegation he added they will be able to build a stronger squad back in the Championship for another promotion run.

 

That's a good and I think fair assessment Kilburn, and to those of us who say that 9 games is too early to say that a club like ours is relegation material, would we say the same about Burnley...

 

Is Ivanovic suspended against us or their LC game mid-week?

 

Good point.
I presume he'll be available against us after serving the ban in midweek.

 

Most probably, shame because we need all the help we can get, next week.

 

So now we need to win 2 more games than Burnley, Sunderland, Leicester/Palace to get out of the bottom 3. Or draw an unfeasibly large number while they lose.

October and we are already relying on other teams results, just as Col has always maintained. What a bunch of muppets.

What have we done to have this inept **** thrown at us from all angles by the club we support? Is there not a single competent person involved with QPR? It really is getting rather tiresome.
