Weekend Match Thread

LOL bollacks...I cannot help being an old gizzer that happens to enjoy good football chat then at times has to act my age and ruin messageboard posts debates......... :

waft the Christmas youth wrote: the most impressive youngplayer I've seen lately is the Argentinian-born Chilean Fernandez, who has more talent in his left eyebrow than cesc in his whole body. Now, as far as I know only Obispo has seen him.

He was poor in the first leg of the final though, wasn't he? Sanchez and Suazo both had better games for Colo Colo. Maybe it didn't help that every clip they showed of him in the first half he was being kicked in the heels by that Cordoba bloke.

Christian Gímenez was good again though for Pachuca. Set up Chitiva(sp?) for their goal but the marking was appauling. Gímenez was man of the match in the second leg against Paranase aswell though; wonder how old he is. Seems to have a fair bit of technique and awareness.

Cattermole was good, Downing was good..made the majority of our chances again, Taylor was good, Huth was good. Morrison changed the game for us think I would give him MOTM(for us). Him or Huth anyway.

Wasnt a penalty, ive seen it a few times now, clear dive but I can see why the ref gave it as it happened quick. Was just a shame Ronaldo picked today to go back to his old ways.

Scholes took us apart for alot of the game, think I'd give him MOTM.

Was a good game anyway.

Fletcher still wouldn't get in your side then coop ?

Haha.

Gímenez is at least 26.

Over Morrison, Boateng or Cattermole? no way.

Fletcher -- Cattermole -- Boateng -- Downing

You'd love it!

Morrison was our best player when he came on, Fletcher could get on the bench.

Not a championship player then?

Also saw the comments Southgate made about Scholes.

I'd already said earlier in the season Fletcher has impressed me.

I thought he was shite?

I thought Richardson had the X-Factor?

... that thinks Fletcher isn't as good as Boateng and Cattermole, and therefore wouldn't get in the team.

What drugs are you on kimbo? i agree though

Scholes>>Fletcher>>>>>>>>>>>>>Downing>>>>>Cattermole>>>>>>>>Boateng>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Morrison.... on Sunday

If you had a dick in your eye, sure

Just out of curiosity, have you ever seen Downing, Cattermole, Boateng, and Morrison play in a game where Man U haven't been involved?

cooperclaus wrote:If you had a dick in your eye, sure

err United won comfortably no? What game were you watching?

Cattermole fouled everyone in site but at least made an impression

Boateng mostly non existent

I think you meant "Comfortably? no"

I was actually at the game poiuy..

Cattermole fouled a couple of times sure, so did Scholes, your point?

Boateng was solid, put himself about as always.

Don't talk shit again, you were doing well.

Man City v Watford anyone watching the game. Watford are getting the better of the home team. Ashley Young looks like he can cross with both feet tricky on the ball and lots of pace I'm rating him higher than Lennon.:

Its the story of Watfords season.

They play good football and play the game in the right spirit but they have wretched luck with the decisions from the refs.

There effect for getting bodies forward is 110%. Man City are being out hussled in every department. Watford need to score more on there opportunities.

I know some people prefer players not from big teams and all this. But Fletcher has been very good on the international stage, to be compared to cattermole is a bit ridiculous. I am sure most boro fans wouldn't swap cattermole for fletcher, at the same time cattermole would not get near the man utd team.
I know that if the players were the other way round, ie countries best player, played over 80 prem games, still young, been great in big big matches against some world class team, at newcastle or boro, and then a youngster only been around over a year at man utd, and i said he was better, you would probably laugh.
Maybe he can be a very good player i dont know, from all i have seen, will say scott parker mark 2, maybe you will see that as a good thing, but not my kind of player.

Very good point

A few more of them would do nicely until the transfer window.
