Cant see why everyone is going mad over wenger signing another "Gem"?
Weve all know about him for some time, but cos wenger signs him, its another gem unearthed.
Fact is no one would be held to ranson for the fee, only arsenal

That were some comeback from Man Utd in the 2nd half...
It's always easier to come back into a game when the referee is a fan! the cheat.Quote:

If it was a corner and the player went through the keeper it would be a foul. So wheres the problem?
IMO it was a good save, but who am i to question tthe "Rules"
yeah, the ref gave us a penalty on purpose :lol: have a wordQuote:

in any case, united's come back was incredible :)
The ball changed direction because Carrick knocked it that way. The keeper may have touched it after, it's hard to be certain from the replays I've seen.Quote:

Can't see how anyone can blame Webb for it though, he only got one look at it, wheras we all get to see as many replays as we like.
After about 50 replays I still can't be certain either way.
It's also worth pointing out to any bitter skause on here that their first goal on Saturday was in no way a free kick, so they too have had their fair share of luck this weekend.
tbh, Utd have been robbed of a handful of legit pens this season, so it's nice to have a debatable one go our way.
United only started playing well once they got the penalty, plus Spurs went to pieces, so that helped United somewhat. I would say Webb has handed United the title, but Boro away and City and Arsenal at home are still potential banana skins.
On the other hand it's another laughable display against United, or at least it turned into one once Webb gave them the pen. Who can forget when they went from 3-0 up to 5-3 down at home?
i dont think webb even booked ronaldo when he threw his shirt into the crowd....
absolute joke
He was defo booked, i know cos i lost points in my dream team...Quote:

Absolute cowards to a man, and I find it hard to believe that Harry "hack you up with an hatchet" Redknap is even trying to defend them by blaming it all on one incident.
If I was in his shoes, I'd be directing my anger at my own players and not the ref, who, despite being a pig, is probably the best ref in the prem.
United weren't playing well 'til the pen and it was definitely a pivotal moment, goals change games as they say and it's obvious Spurs lack mental strength this season, that's why they were in danger of being relegated. You see in tennis a players head goes down when a decision goes against them and they often lose and one point in tennis is a lot less important than a goal in football.
Also, judging from the commentary on 5 Live Scholes should have been sent off, they said he made 3 yellow card worthy fouls shortly after coming on, then he kicked the ball away which is a 4th yellow card offence.
it was a pivotal moment, but united were practically laying siege to the tottenham goal before the pen, i'm fairly confident united would have scored even if the pen had been deniedQuote:

so **** 5live
Alan Green makes no attempt to hide his hate for Man Utd, I'd take anything said on 5live about Utd with a big pinch of salt.Quote:

the reason why they always cover the united games is because we're the current champions and league leadersQuote:

trust me man, they are bias against united, the commentators practically creamed when sunderland equalised a few weeks back, and their disgust was apparent when united got the winner

To be fair, Green shouldn't even be broadcasting after some of the racist comments he's made about African players over the years. He's a poisonous little cunt who would be put to better use as soap or lampshades.
That's because the Utd game is always the biggest game on, no matter what else is going on.Quote:

happy that giggs got a goal, nice finish, park's was quality as well
yea its looking as if united are gonna make it 18....
watched the game....not a bad performance by united, thought rooney had a good game...the pass to Park for his goal was class
Does rooney have a bad game anymore?
His work rate is second to none. Every team needs a player like that
hahaha that's stupid. he just appreciates the fact that recently our football has been a pleasure to watch for the neutral.Quote:

and going back to webb, ... he is known to be a united fan and he was clearly desperate to give united a penalty to get them back in the game. i cant stand the man because he is clearly unprofessional.

solid performance from united yesterday, amazing strike from tevez, i hope he stays
Ain't this the one where you equal Liverpools league title record?
yep :)
and if we retain the champions league then it's four european cups to liverpool's five, it'll not be long before the kopites won't be able to to claim they are the most successful english club any longer
No wonder Phantoms losing it!!!Quote:

thing is if torres had have been fit throughout the season it may have been a different story and united would have been a few points behind us..
but the best thing about it is in which the way we have played (minus the shitty draws throughout jan) but recently we have battered teams and played some excellent exciting football and thats not always been the case at Liverpool, we have also beaten all the best teams in Premiership and that does not happen much...
Liverpool are on the up and if Benitez buys the right players and offloads who he needs to get rid of then we will be up there again no question...
United havent been the same side as last season and whoever says they have been at there best this year is deluded, but they have still managed to grind out scrappy results where as liverpool faultered when they were goin through the bad patch and thats why it is like it is
it's fair to say that united haven't been at their best this season, but we're still top of the league, and champions league finalists, so i'm happy :)
it's not actually over yet, but it's fair to say that Utd haven't been at their best for most of the season, although a couple of performances have surpassed anything from last season (with the possible exception of last season's FA Cup game vs Arsenal).Quote:

phantom's never coming back is he? :lol:
You'll miss him if that's the case!
Surely the fact I'm an Arsenal fan and have no experience of management would mean you were already glad i'm not managing Man U. That and the fact you've already got Fergie. When I managed Man U on Champ manager I released all your best players, bought the cheapest players I could find for millions and offered them huge wages and generally tried to bankrupt them, though new boards kept coming in and clearing the debts...Quote:
