micojoia- im not trying to be insulting, but really, i dont know how you can see what you said.

Get rid of other players???
What???
Why would he get rid of anyone?

How would Ronaldo and Tevez being on fire doing anything bad to Rooney? It is just illogical. Of course SAF is going to protect Ronaldo, but how would that relate to Rooney? It wont. SAF wouldnt sell Rooney, or bench him, or force him to play in a way to suit Ronaldo. Rooney and Ronaldo are a team, a pair that work together well. To be honest, SAF is really building his squad around these two. They are players you can build a squad around. So hes not getting rid of either, or forcing them to do anything different, or anything. I honestly dont have clue what you are thinking. Sorry, but your arguement is just completely illogical.

Its like saying 1+1 is 3 so thats why the sky is green. Absolutely nonsensical.

Is it better off with Ronaldo scoring most of the goals and our strikers scoring the odd ones as it is now OR have an out and out striker or 2 and play Ronaldo in an assisting mode as a winger or center midfielder, will Ronaldo be more effective

[quote comment="10854"]micojoia- i disagree. The fact that Rooney isnt scoring has nothing to do with competition from his own team. That makes absolutely no sense. His teammates are scoring, but thats not going to affect his form. The reason Rooney isnt scoring is because he lost his momentum when he got injured twice and then the virus, and so he doesnt have confidence. Confidence is everything as a striker, or really for any attacking player. Ronaldo has soo much confidence right now, and it shows in everything he does. That is the reason why hes playing so well. Conversely, Rooney has lost his form (due to injuries) and his confidence (due to not scoring cause of 1st reason) so he isnt playing well. Its all in his head. Hes a great scorer, and a great finisher. Right now, he just doesnt fell like it. psychology is big in sports, thinking like a winner makes you that much closer to being one. Rooney needs to get the 'bad luck' out of his head, cause thats the only thing stopping him from scoring. Not his teammates.

If anything, the fact that his teammates are on fire would boost Rooney, not hold him back. its team momentum.[/quote]

Dude disgree all you want, what I see on TV is what I am commenting on. Ho yeah, Sir Alex is crazy for Ronald, I don't think he ever had a player like him in his entire career and he will do what ever it takes to protect him even if it means to get rid of the other players.

[quote comment="10836"]is manu on top of the league b/c of more wins than arsenal? if so, then y did some ppl say that manu was above arsenal last week b/c of more goals scored or of goal difference?[/quote]
Man U is on the top due to goal difference. Man U currently has 48 goals for and 11 goals agains. while Arsenal has 49 goals for and 17 agains making the goal differance 37 (Man U) and 32 (Arsenal) which is why goalscoreing and cleansheets are so important... Edwin need more credit :d

Man U has won more matches than Arsenal . However Man U lost 2 more matches than Arsenal that is the explanation for being equal on points inspite of more wins, but ahead on goals.

[quote comment="10832"]breathtaking goals from Cristiano Ronaldo.

However, I was dissapointed when Rooney didn't score. It seems that after he got injured, he never returned fully to the scoresheet.

Come, on Rooney! Over the moon, we've got the roon!

btw, anyone have MOTD highlights?[/quote]

Rooney needs one of those difficult situations to break his jinx - he does spill awful lot of easy chances but latches on to one off half chances - next one is against Spurs away he might score for all you know

roxii- giggs wasnt on the bench. He was either rested or injured, depending on who you ask.

would someone please post the video. ronaldo, football god. i think tevez has added a lot to the team actually, when he and rooney team up, rooney needs to do some yoga or mindful meditation or something.

[quote comment="10868"]Congrats Man-U. In fact I am a Big Arsenal fan but I value and admire good soccer and awesome players like CR. I am not trying to be nosy here, but I really don't like Teves at all. I feel he did not add anything to Man-U. He does not have style whatsoever. I watched all goals he scored, pretty much finishing what's already finished..[/quote]

Why all goals should be spectacular?He already have 13 goals under his belt this season and I can't see anything wrong with him. He fights for the ball, always running and forms a good partnership with Rooney. It is difficult to score a goal, and to score 13 from a lad that has only been with us from the start of the season is already great. Not everyone knows how to score and finish what's already finished.

Roxii — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 01:16:20 -0000

Another blistering performance from every member of the squad, but especially from Ronaldo. Can't this lad stop scoring? It surprises people nowadays if he fails to score in any match. An early brace from Ronaldo was enough, but that was not what our players thought. We were quite happy with a 2-0 lead, but it was not enough. Everyone kept on attacking - 14 shots on target is the answer. The result doesn't reflect our dominance.

Giggs, Tevez, Anderson and Hargreaves all started on the bench. They all featured later except for Giggs. Anderson did terrific work when he came on, and he deserved a goal too. Nani is the master of shooting from a long range - He was unlucky not to score too. Rooney isn't in the mood of scoring but he enjoyed the match quite well and kept that fighting spirit alive. Scholes was back in the starting line up, and he was terrific. All defenders played exceptionally well expecially Vida and Ferdinand - Just forget trying to score when these two are playing. Ji Sung and Carrick were both decent.

Anyways, everyone was great and it was a bit disappointing not to see more goals but another 3 points, and that's all it matter altough at this point, we do need to score a lot and not concede any goals. We're scoring a decent amount of goals and our backline is being awesome. Could this be the same side that at the start of this season was fighting to score a single goal? Yeah it is ;]

Just keep on rockin Utd !

WHAAAT? Man U has was nowhere near as effective as they are now than last year without Tevez. Tevez is always a threat to the opposition, he always makes spectacular plays with either be Ronaldo or Rooney, you can look at some of the assists he's gotten this year and see how his dynamic playing really has helped Man U catch and pass Arsenal.

MOTD Highlights anyone?

Re: Man Utd 2 - 0 Portsmouth

Danny- really, it was a good performance in terms of posession and domination.

These highlights get most of it.

Moe- Thanks for the good input. I have to respectfully disagree about tevez though. tevez isnt much of a flashy player, but he adds a lot in terms of work effort and goals. he scores because he works hard to get into position. His passing is good, and the link up with Rooney is fantastic.
