I know. That's why I wrote 'Van Gaal won't either'. 
The Greatest Show on Earth (Premier league) 12/13
What a goal by Ben Arfa! Should be buying him for 20m next window.
We have no need for him. We have Geeeeeeerviiiiiiiiinho!!!!!!

He pretty much announced it publicly that Huntelaar is his main man.
Van Gaal is anything but sane, frankly.

united are always so lucky.
Van Persie couldnt give us 3 clean sheets in a row. Basics are to defend well and we've done that so far, that always gives us a chance. Our attackers will get to know each other well enough and start banging them in for fun I'm sure of it.

Just seen it:
We need to get this guy in January if we're thinking about signing people from within the league.

Travelled at some speed, arrow straight.

can't be getting upset about every goal he scores for the mancs, you'll end up institutionalised. he will score tonnes for them as long as he's fit, the kunt.

Didn't know he could do that with his right foot! :o
Just throw the fucking Perse' money at them and get this guy. He's only 25 as well.
Or should we wait till Dembele realises he's made a terrible mistake?

Really?
Good omen then. 8)
This is bizarre but it came to my notice that Ian Wright scored his first league goal against Southampton as well.
So did Bergkamp. And that Dutch guy at United.

As someone said on Twitter - the only thing that can stop the guy is injury. It's been like that for years.
Interesting Martin Samuel article on the new era of owner-manager management (if that makes sense): http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/article-2198312/Martin-Samuel-Brendan-Rodgers--youll-work-alone.html
Questions over Rooney's importance at United, general performance, his future and his weight.
Interesting article.

More words from Rooney on his weight and injury.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/sep/05/wayne-rooney-training-seven-pounds-overweight
Think it's hilarious they question him after last season. He was the most complete striker in Premier League.
RvP is better than him and has always been the bigger talent.
Rooney looked more complete last season because of the position he played and the role he had. RvP had to focus entirely on scoring because he was the only one in the squad capable of doing it. But his best role is the #10 one. In fact, he's probably the best #10 of his generation.
United are very, very lucky to have him. Talent like that doesn't come around too often.
van Persie has never had that kind of playmaking ability. That's not to say he's not talented but he's too slow to release the ball which is why he was never preferred in that role for us. He was more important to Arsenal last season than Rooney was for United but there was very little to separate the two. Rooney has the broader repertoire.
What do people make of his weight issues? That Giggs comparison is quite funny but it's true some people naturally put on more weight.
He's a brilliant playmaker. Rooney's not even in the same class. RvP is up there with Messi.
Up there with Messi?
Obviously not as good. But the only one that's in the same stratosphere.
Isn't there only one stratosphere? Or are we talking about two different planets?
Guys, he's confusing the stratosphere and the ionosphere

Ludo, you'll have to be careful around here dissing Messi and Barcelona.
Don't care about him dissing Messi, fuck vanPersie too, why you on his dick Ludo?

We're talking about Messi specifically, and the comparison with RVP as players. Barcelona have nothing to do with it.
Anyone who knows the game realises that Messi is in a league of his own. Only Ronaldo can touch him really.

How on earth are scholes and giggs still able to perform when they will be 38 and 39 this year. Fecking cunts wont go away. Surprisingly neither have scored more than 15 goals in a single pl season.
Not all that surprising. Scholes has always been quality but Giggs only get's touted because of his 20 year career. Ryan has not been an absolute top premiership player in a single one of those seasons.
