Apparently Falcao is training again and ready to play. Hopefully he can get going again and is productive for his team. He just needs to stay healthy

Yes i want Falcao to play more, Van Persie is so rubbish this year. He looks so slow he is now 31 so maybe we need rest him abit. We know Wilson will be world class though he is a lethal finisher he has speed aswell.

From what I've read in other forums, most Man U fans want Falcao to start over RVP. They like his movement and link up play better, but I doubt LVG makes the switch

Overall, happy to come away w/ a point against the league leaders.

Can't wait for the derby!!

Neuer, Courtouis, Lloris are all world class goaltenders that I wouldn't shake a stick at either

I'd say Neuer is number one, haven't seen enough of the other 2 to judge.


Lloris > De Gay and it's not all that close. Sweeper keeperz 4 lyf.

I think the goal this season was always to be in the top 4, it's just that we've accomplished it much sooner than we expected.

At this point, ten points behind Chelsea, they're not gonna drop too many games. Mourinho won't let that type of colossal breakdown happen.

I think this team can make a run for the FA cup though, since that is still within reach.

Assuming that you don't draw MK Dons along the way.

Never been much of a soccer fan because I get annoyed by the diving/acting that happens so often and so flagrantly, but have always supported Manchester United and my national team (the Soccerroos). Figured I'm going to take more of an interest in the game and follow Man Utd more closely, so I'll probably be around here a bit. I'm a complete soccer newbie though so take it easy on me :lol:

Besides Massimo/DD12 who is the resident hazer, we're pretty accepting of new fans here. United are starting to look like something of a team again, and now that it looks like you'll be making the Champions League, I'd expect more big signings this summer. I wouldn't be surprised if you're good enough to give Chelsea a run for the league title next season.

Up 2-1 at the half. Has anyone got any ideas where I can stream this game for free in Australia?

Was surprised to find out this morning that Man U has signed Memphis Depay. Good news but I thought the transfer window didn't open until July? Anyone know how Man U was able to get this transfer done in May? Was he out of contract with PSV?

He can't join the team before July but they can announce the deal whenever they want to. But again, Depay will not be able to play for Manu until transfer window opens in July.
