    Manchester United vs. Arsenal

    I like these quick short corners. Roma did us with them a few years ago. Was always hoping we'd add it to our game. And Wilshere is off!

    Nani's career at United over?

    Shame that Nani's United career is ending like this. He's more of a threat than the predictable Ashley Young.

    Chelsea v Manchester United

    I honestly think we won by default. Wasn't impressed with the way we let Chelsea back into the game.

    Mark Clattenburg reported by Chelsea FC for alleged abuse of 2 players

    Clattenburg's a dodgy **** and always has been. Wouldn't surprise me if he's bent, and not necessarily in United's favour. He had a few problems during the week in Moscow as well (Spartak-Benfica).

    Manchester United vs. Braga

    I'm really glad that Fergie's been trying out a diamond formation. Never thought I'd see the day when he'd drop wingers. 3-2 United.

    The reason we are not signing a midfielder.

    I still think Anderson is being misued at United and played out of position. He'd be better off at a Spanish club, playing the sort of role he played for Porto.

    Keep Calm

    Relax. You're one day closer to O'Neill getting the job.

    Liverpool

    No way Rodgers will impose himself at Liverpool. The job's too big for him. Rodgers to Norwich, O'Neill to Liverpool.

    The Official Man Utd & Liverpool plus Chelsea, Everton and City Banter Thread!

    Liverpool should be safe by April. Depends on how quickly they change their manager.

    Brendan Rodgers sack watch

    Rodgers will be the next manager of Norwich.

    Deal done for Van Persie

    Anything to avoid buying midfielders! I agree with Swarbs, Sahin would be a great signing. In fact I'd sign 2 midfielders. What gets me is that Fergie said this would be a big season for Hernandez, and Welbeck has just signed an extended contract. It's a strange signing, one that I honestly...

    Italy - a sweepstake disappointment

    When I used the word catenaccio, I didn't mean "defensive football". I meant defence as a platform for attack, which is exactly what the Italians have done.

    Italy - a sweepstake disappointment

    I think that ricospur misunderstood what I meant.

    Euro 2012 thread

    Gomez is like Dzeko. Unplayable when he's on form, sluggish and cumbersome when he's not. Looks like he's been subbed.

    Taking the last penalty....

    Ronaldo wanted all the glory for himself. As I've always suspected, his ego matters more to him than the team.
