TelekineticBear! posted:Rooney is going to go down as a Manchester United legend no matter what tbh, it has always struck me as odd that hes got so much stick from certain sections of supporters when he has, for the most part, been consistently excellent for about a decade. Is it because of his moan about a new contract? it just seems strange that someone who has been so good for so long attracts such venom, when other similar players dont He's always been a pretty streaky player and when he's bad he's real bad. Also the contract thing was ridiculous and he pulled that stunt a couple of times. He'll be regarded fondly I'm sure but not in the Giggs, Scholes or even Cantona way.

Breath Ray posted:Yeah even cantona, who hardly anyone rates these days and frankly althougg this is the benefiy of hindsight talking was lucky to pull on the utd shirt at all Your gimmick sucks but I'll reply seriously. Cantona wasn't actually at United all that long and spent a lot of time being suspended for being a massive cock. I think he was a catalyst for United becoming a dominant team though and had the personality to achieve a pretty cult status on top of the following his ability gave him.

serious gaylord posted:Rooney will end his career as the player with the most goals in the Premier League, Most goals for England and most goals for United yet people will still call him poo poo. Rooney was/is a great player but he played in an extremely dominant team that, under Ferguson, always got the strikers plenty of goals. Andy Cole wasn't the most gifted player ever but he scored a poo poo ton at United because of the huge amount of opportunities the wingers provided. Rooney has also benefitted from never been dropped by club and country regardless of form so can keep adding the odd goal to his total without playing well for months on end. Any United fan that doesn't appreciate what Rooney has done for the club is an idiot but I totally understand why some wouldn't idolize him in the same manner as other United players (which have made similar or lesser impact)

The Big Taff Man posted:I'll get in here before Ninpo does Oh I actually totally agree with you. That's what I meant about being the catalyst. His confidence and arrogance rubbed off on the team in a huge way (Keane had a similar effect with his own personality) and gave a lot of belief to the young players coming through. Rooney has neither the personality nor the outrageous flair that will make him an absolute legend regardless of how many goals he ends up scoring for United.

The Big Taff Man posted:I think this is unfair to Rooney actually, hes been sacrificed a fair few times for the team because of other players (like Ronaldo, Berbatov and Tevez) because hes a much more flexible player. Even last season he was playing in midfield a bunch. Given the huge turnover you've had recently there aren't many players that have been at the club very long so it's not surprising fans are loyal to him (despite it barely being reciprocated).

Breath Ray posted:lets talk about villa. theyre a couple of wins from escaping the dropzone and will have some much needed new manager bounce. unfortunately they also have the following fixtures coming up I think Villa are going down tbh.

straight up brolic posted:if villa are going to go down its not the games against #thegoodteams that'll do it. They need to have a really good second half of the season and win against all the teams they should be expected to. Expected to? Honestly on paper Villa probably have one of the weakest squad in the division along with Norwich, Sunderland and a depleted Bournemouth. Unless Garde turns out to be amazing I think their only chance is that those three are just a little bit shitter. Newcastle should be okay. Their squad has some really talented players in it and despite being managed by a plonker that should be enough to see them to safety.

Blue Star Error posted:The only Villa players that would get in Norwich's team are Richards and Okore (even though I've never been impressed with him I'm not sure he can be worse than Martin is atm). Maybe Lescott too depending on how old and knackered he is these days. Lescott is real bad op. Has Illori played for you? Everyone always raves about him at Liverpool but it's pretty clear no one has ever seen him actually play a game. I'm not even sure he exists to be honest.

Ungratek posted:Depleted Bournemouth side implies that were good enough at the start. They were likely going down from the start, their defending is awful Maybe. But losing Mings and, especially, Wilson would have helped them beat the other poo poo teams- which is probably what it will come down to. I'd also back Howe to bring in smarter signings than Villa and Sunderland will given both of their recent records.

Clyne is definitely a defender first winger second. So was Steve Finnan and Arbeloa. We've quite often had a solid right back and a marauding left back when I think about it.

Jose posted:enrique was alright then liverpool signed him and like most of their signings was either permanently injured or extremely bad Enrique is a really odd player. He's insanely quick and strong on the ball and will always look to play it out from the back...but he's also incredibly one dimensional going forward and attacks broke down constantly because he'd take the wrong option.

I used to hate Walters because he kinda looks like a oval office but he's actually pretty cool op and I dislike Stoke a whole lot less these days. Especially when they're beating Chelsea. Also Chelsea aren't getting relegated but anything less than fourth is a catastrophic failure and no manager will survive that.

Brony Car posted:Is he still cozy with Joorabchian? That might help a lot. Skrtel scored of a lot of corners in that almost season but other than that we've been poo poo since Hyypia was playing. Can is 21 so I expect some inconsistencies and he's mostly been very good since Klopp took over. His work rate has been great too and given our lack of options in the middle he's had to play a lot. No concerns about him. Lucas is a good player but he has lost all physicality to his game and relies entirely on his positioning and timing. His stats suggest he's been amazing but I still think we need a more mobile defensive midfielder. Still don't think he's a massive concern though. Also I disagree about the Henderson being back thing. I think he'll make a huge difference once he's match fit. His pressing and work rate is the best in the side but unlike Milner he's actually quick and a bigger goal threat

vyelkin posted:Emre Can is one of those guys who firmly believes he's amazing at every aspect of a football match but is really only good at like two or three things, which don't include dribbling, shooting, or ambitious passing. When all he has to do is run around all day pressing people he looks really good, but as soon as he actually gets the ball and starts trying to do stepovers and through balls and shooting from thirty yards he looks like garbage. So it's natural that he looks good in Klopp's new high pressing system, but he still isn't an asset offensively and I think Henderson could improve the side a lot once he comes back. I have more faith in Can being a top class midfielder than anyone else currently at the club. He makes mistakes and chooses the wrong options sometimes but he's twenty one.

blue footed boobie posted:Alexis is supposedly about to sign a 5 year deal for 150k a week. Ozil too, apparently for 160k. Not sure why Ozil gets more, but That's Januzaj territory! Seriously though, given the wages Rooney (and some Chelsea and City players) that's seems pretty reasonable. Well as far as footballers go. Milner is easily out most well paid player and he's been really disappointing. At least he works hard and is likeable though.

Jose posted:newcastle desperately need a good central midfielder in january and not signing cabaye back when he was offered was so dumb It's going to be a really fun relegation battle. Out of all the teams likely to be fighting it out I actually back Bournemouth to be the team most likely to pull away from the rest. They play good football, have their best players injured, and have money to spend in January. Also Eddie Howe seems pretty competent. Sunderland are gone imo. A squad filled with little talent and players that should have been moved on a long time ago. Allardyce is good in these situations but there is too much work that needs doing. Villa are probably going down too. Similar to Sunderland in terms of squad quality but will probably spend even less in January. Norwich or Newcastle will be 18th. The former is lacking quality at the back and the latter has a terrible manager.

Blasmeister posted:I'm hoping that Leicester can still be riding high by January and attract some quality defenders. The current plan of 'just score more than we let in' is working, but we give away way too many sloppy penalties for that to work out in the longterm. Really though, the main hope is that we come out of the transfer window without having been picked clean by european clubs with big chequebooks I think you'll actually be okay. Vardy is still seen as a Michael Ricketts type and I can see a lot of clubs being put off by the type of fee that Leicester would/should expect. Personally I think he's actually really good and should be given a proper opportunity with England. Mahrez is the only player I can really see you struggling to keep. He's young and talented and I can see clubs stumping up the cash for him. The rest of the squad is solid without any superstars so it should be easy to hold on to him
