Nope. Almost all the individual players I liked played for United, which is why I support the club. I don't give much of a damn for the city itself. :wink:

2 questions for you btw:
1) Do all the players in United originate from Manchester?
2) Do we need to be a citizen of the country to support a club there?


1.Nope
2.I guessed you were from England ?,perhaps i'm wrong :hehe: (deffo wouldn't be the first time ),In England if you know very much about football at a young age ,you tend to support your local team,in your county,borough,area..A lot more so than other sports that are worldwide.I must say i only really speak for true supporters ,not fans

Well, I'm more of a fan. If United don't do well, it doesn't wreck my day. Unfortunately, it isn't the same with F1. :irked:

Gutted for Everton.

f*** it anyway. Same as the final a few years ago. Too defensive and tbh Liverpool deserved it completely. Jones made one damn save in the whole game... tells it all really. Distin is a great centre back and it was nice to see him apologising at the end. Coleman was silly to give away that free kick though.

Better luck next year I guess. I've still never celebrated a football trophy as a human. :(

Well my side Norwich have won something in my lifetime,(but I'm guessing I'm a fair bit older than you :hehe: )
We had a good game with man city today.Was 2.1 down after 72 minutes,then man city just ripped us to shreads.6.1 in the end ,I just hope the +9 goal diff they got off us this season wins them the league. :twisted:

I'm liking Mancini's sad attempts in mind games "The league is lost the league is lost" despite only being 2 points behind now and United still to face City. :hehe:

I think he is a useless manager.When they played Arsenal the other week it took him 82 minutes to make a sub and change things,when they were getting battered .He always lacks a plan b.

I agree with the useless manager part. It's a joke when you see how players are acting in that club...Tevez's refusing to warm up, Balotelli's various shenanigans, Mancini's recent comments about 'punching Balotelli in the face'...wtf. I can only imagine what Ferguson would've achieved with this club's spending power.

Won 3 Seria A in a row, European record of 17 wins in a row also...Spent money on Brilliant signings (Silva, Yaya, Ageuro etc) unlike say Liverpool with Adam, Henderson, Carroll etc)

No; but you are right, he is a useless manager. :rolleyes:

Carroll is not looking such a bad signing for Liverpool in the last two games, two last minute winners for Liverpool!

Being a Liverpool fan i'm delighted but we had the choice between Aguero and Carroll, just like
we got Cisse instead of E'to'o! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Being a fellow Liverpool fan, I do wonder about the signings that are made, but there has been some great ones, Xabi Alonso for example, which the Reds let go!!! :crying:

I'm not on about his abiltily to find and sign players.I'm on about the actual management bit.He basicly ran Silva into the ground ,as say Fergie would of rested him sometimes.He doesn't seem to be able/willing to change things when things aren't going right in the middle of a game.Never changes formation from what i've seen.
At the Etihed they are a good side,away from there most of the time he seems to get them playing far to negative(could be the Italian in him).That is unless they are playing us (Norwich) My friend who is a man city season ticket holder said they probably played two of their best game v us(apart from man u ofc)

Now I can't comment on the Italian league as i don't watch it,that record is good i grant you.I'm only commenting on what i've seen

I'm a huge Liverpool fan. A rather gutting one too. We lost against West Brom after dominating the entire match, smacking the post for the 30th time this season. We should have scored 4-5 past Woy's Brom but unfortunately we badly lack a goal scorer and the luck was not on our side today.

Anyway, the league isn't that important anymore. Let's beat Chelsea win our second trophy of the season and go onto next season in high spirits.
