Ja kui nüüd suurest CL eufooriast korra argipäeva tagasi tulla, siis sooviks saaada Vincenti arvamust sellest uudisest: http://www.football-italia.net/aa/aa-mar10a.html
isiklikult kutsuks ma seda viisakalt juba TERRORISMIKS...aga mida mina tean

Huvitav, kui Becks oleks oma volley üles nurka littind, siis kas ManU fännid oleks seda nautinud ? Oleks võind muidu sisse minna, oleks olnud hea lahkumiskingitus.

Nii rahulikult mängule järele mõeldes võib isegi rahule jääda, oleme siiski ausad Milan oli ikka kohutavalt sitt - ääri praktiliselt ei kasutatud - oma häid võimalusi esimesel poolajal ära ei kasutatud jne. Kui nüüd mõelda kes järele jäänud on võiks vaikselt isegi finaalikohale mõelda. Kurat Rooney ja Fletcher on ikka jätkuvalt ülihead. Ehk õnnestub veerandfinaalis juba mõne euroopa tippmeeskonnaga kohtuda. Kui nüüd Inglise liigavõidu peale mõelda, siis Essien on veel pikalt vigastatud? - ta see hooaeg Chelseale sama tähtis kui Rooney Manule, seega eelis Manule - natuke kardan seda mängu Liverpooliga, viimastel aastatel ikka väga ebamugav vastane. Ilmselt tuleb 3. meeskonna vahel punkt-punkti heitlus viiamse vooruni.

Mis ma sest ikka arvan, kui Roma pakub lepingut ja Manku pakub lepingut, eks siis poiss valib selle, kumb rohkem meeldib. Selge muidugi, et Unitedisse tulles oleks tal neid samasuguseid paljulubavaid starleteid juba terve hunnik ees, kes kõik tuleks üle mängida. Ise teab.

e: Essien on viimaste juttude järgi hooaja lõpuni audis.

Vahepeal midagi mitte nii kollarohelist

Meanwhile, United have signed a five-year sponsorship agreement with Telekom Malaysia.

The deal makes Telekom Malaysia the "Integrated Telecommunications Partner" of United in Malaysia.

It continues the strategy of widening United's sponsorship base and hopes to tap into the enormous fan base of the Red Devils in the country.

"Anyone who went on our tour of the Far East last summer knows the strength of feeling that Malaysians have for the club," said chief executive David Gill.

"Over 40,000 attended our training session and another 40,000 came to the second match in Kuala Lumpur, despite only having 48 hours' notice of the fixture."

Valencia on kunagi naeratanud ka ever ? Väga kuri poiss tundub.

[Nohik]

Andestust, aga peab ikka päris loll olema, et sellele buutamise irooniale mitte pihta saada.

Ma ei vaadanudki mängu vaid niisama trollin siin.

Minu mäletamist mööda peeti Beckhamit jubedaks reeturiks, kes lahkus ainult raha nimel ja ,et teda polnud enam vajagi jne jne... Nüüd on järsku jube kangelane, kelle jaoks prawn-sandwich-eaterid püsti aplodeerisid? Oleks ta mänginud Realiga Old Traffordil oleks ta saanud ju kena pudeli ja mündirahe...

Täna oli suht naljakas veel see, kuidas Becks vabandas, et ei teadnud mida see kollane-roheline sall sümboliseeris.

no ei meenu midagi sellist, ajad Michael Oweniga segi?

United sold Beckham to Real Madrid after his relations soured with manager Alex Ferguson, who was concerned about his off-field commitments.

Giggs tahab/tahtisgi olla ju inglane...

ikka tahtisKi? midagi selle Giggsi ja Inglismaaga oli jah

Manchester United winger Ryan Giggs has dispelled the myth that he turned his back on the chance to play for England.
Giggs said despite people often thinking he opted to represent Wales rather than England - he isn't actually qualified to parade the three lions on his shirt.

Giggs explained: "I'm Welsh through and through.
"I was born in Wales, I grew up in Wales and my family are Welsh.
"The confusion was because I played for England schoolboys - but only because I went to an English school. I couldn't actually play for England!"

Ei. Me tahame tagasi osta Ronaldot ja Tevezt, lisaks tahame osta endale Villat, Kakat, Silvat, Messit, 3 uut väravavahti, Bruno Alvest, Terryt, Gerrardi, Lampardit, Mexest, Benzemat, Riberyt. Sorry, kui ma kellegi nimekirjast välja jätsin. Glazerid on nõmedad, kuna neil on võlg ja nad ei suuda neid osta!

"Colour revolution"
Dissatisfaction among the faithful followers of Manchester United
Mar 4th 2010 | From The Economist print edition

EIGHT minutes into the final of the Carling Cup on February 28th, the referee held up play for a few seconds. No goal, no injury: Phil Dowd merely wanted the players to burst the yellow and green balloons littering the pitch. These are the colours sported by Manchester United fans protesting against the Glazer family, the Americans who have owned the club since 2005. United, England’s (and possibly the world’s) most popular football club, usually play in red and white, but yellow and green were worn by their 19th-century forebears, Newton Heath, and as away kit in the early 1990s. Wear a scarf in these colours or blow up a few balloons and you show where your loyalties lie.

A well-heeled group of fans, dubbed the Red Knights, want to put their money where their scarves are and bid for the club. Their inner circle includes Jim O’Neill, chief economist of Goldman Sachs and a former director of United, and Paul Marshall, founder of Marshall Wace, a hedge fund. They are allied with the Manchester United Supporters Trust (MUST), which has been campaigning for a takeover by fans. MUST’s membership is rising by several thousand a day. By March 4th it had topped 100,000—24,000 more than can fit into Old Trafford, United’s stadium.

Fans of other clubs may wonder what the United faithful are moaning about. Portsmouth, who have had almost as many owners as wins this season, went into administration on February 26th. The resulting nine-point penalty makes relegation from the Premier League all but certain. United’s followers, meanwhile, saw their team beat Aston Villa 2-1 to retain the Carling Cup—a pot they scarcely consider proper silverware. They have carried off the Premier League, English football’s most coveted prize, in the past three seasons and are just a point behind this year’s leaders, Chelsea. United were European champions in 2008 and runners-up in 2009.

Top of the protesters’ dislikes is debt. The Glazers acquired United in a leveraged buy-out and the club now owes £500m. Red Football Joint Venture (RFJV), through which the family controls the club, also issued £200m of “payment-in-kind” (PIK) notes with a high interest rate. In January the club’s debt was restructured through a bond issue of £500m. This makes the club’s finances more flexible. It also makes it easier to distribute or lend money to RFJV and to repay the PIKs.

For some this was the last straw. Fans must pay more to watch their team: tickets were once among the cheapest in the league, but the prospectus for January’s bond issue notes that “we have been able to consistently increase match-day ticket prices…at levels above the rate of inflation.” The club’s total revenue was £278m last year, the highest in Britain and third highest in Europe. Fans want money to be spent on players, not creditors (or owners). The sale last summer of Cristiano Ronaldo, a brilliant Portuguese winger, to Real Madrid for £80m was a depressing portent.

MUST is telling its members: “This is our moment—in the coming days and weeks we can change everything.” Maybe. Well over £1 billion would be probably be needed to buy out the Glazers and leave the club debt-free. That is a lot, even for the keenest, richest fans. In any case, the club says the Glazers, who are reported to be extremely cross with Goldman Sachs, have no wish to sell.

Should the knights win, it is not clear how United will be run. They say only that “any new ownership model would aim…to put the supporters at the heart of everything the club does.” Collective ownership, if that is what emerges, is unknown among leading English clubs, though common in continental Europe. Some English clubs have found sugar-daddies with bottomless pockets; others have been sold to North Americans with, like the Glazers, experience of “franchises” in American football or other sports. Whatever the model, even the most successful teams cannot always keep their fans happy.

Vabandust sellise pika copy-paste eest, kuid linki kahjuks panna ei saa (The Economist ei ole vaba juurdepääsuga). Siiski minu arvates hea ning lühidalt asja sisu kokku võttev artikkel.

"Real Madrid suvine põhieesmärk Rooney"

Suht tore, real hakkab siis iga hooaeg meilt mängijaid ostma, ja lõpuks on terve manku meeskond seal ?
