My thoughts on the Premier League antepost betting:

Is Fabio Capello's sidekick, Franco Baldini, really Ian McShane in disguise?

Paul Scholes says he might've gone to the World Cup, if Capello, and not his assistant, had contacted him, askin him to go to the World Cup. Apparently he was only given 2 hours to make his decision as well.

Great look a like pic Tuumble.

Well thak f**k he didn't. Why go begging to arrogant arsehioles way past their best?

Well, I would have liked to have seen him nimbly rounding the 19/20/21 year old Germans before smashing home one of his trademark World Cup winning goals.

Newcastle buying Sol Campbell apparently. FFS.

I still think Chelsea should sign David James.

No way is he an arrogant arsehole, he's a very quiet family man who wants none of the limelight. He would have done great for England at the World Cup, he can pass a ball, something Gareth Barry is incapable of doing. He would have been a great man to have in the England squad. A true professional.

I am looking forward to the arrival of Javier Hernandez at Old Trafford.

Yeah so am I, he showed some promise in the World Cup. The problem with signing unknown strikers like him is for every Solskjaer, there are about ten Dong Fangzhao's.
But I think United are going downhill. Look at the 2007-08 season when you had Wes 'Legend' Brown, Rio and Vidic in their prime in defence, you had Anderson and Hargreaves running midfield and had Ronny, Rooney and Tevez up top. We were great then, but now, we're a mere shadow of that team.
Hargreaves will probably never feature again, Anderson has been poor since his great opening season, Berbatov and Carrick are just a waste of space and Michael Owen is simply just not good enough to be playing for United. Plus, Gary Neville, Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs are getting older and incapable of playing too often.
I blame most of our problems on Berbatov. He's lazy, can't finish and is just generally a twat. He's also the main reason why Tevez left.

Another great British talent of the future.

Why the f**k isn't Capello ordered to attend the Under 19 tournament? He's f**king paid enough.

United of 07/08 were one of the best and most entertaining United teams I've seen. Like Rooney said at the time "We're playing like Brazil".

Looking forward to seeing Joe Cole at Liverpool
I wish Houllier had bought him years ago, he was interested at the time I think.

And then we signed Berbatov.
