Hail to Rutgerus Johannes Martinus van Nistelrooij
hope he have many better seasons ahead with Manchester United!

[Raul7]

Manchester United have trained their sights on Nigel de Jong, but Ajax have insisted they will resist all offers for their talented defender this summer.

United's vast scouting network has highlighted the versatile de Jong as a player capable of flourishing at Old Trafford and they have had the 20-year-old watched on a number of occasions.

The Red Devils have also been encouraged by de Jong's failure to agree a new deal at The Amsterdam ArenA, with the player reportedly unhappy at being asked to operate in a number of different positions.

De Jong rose through the ranks as a full back, a position Sir Alex Ferguson is keen to boost, but he has been asked to operate in midfield under new boss Danny Blind.

Ajax are aware of the interest in de Jong, but are keen to rebuff any offers and extend his stay in Amsterdam.

"We won't let him go," Ajax director Arie van Eijden told Algemeen Dagblad. "Nigel de Jong still has a deal until 2006 and is an important player in the vision of Danny Blind.

"We will not quote a fee, we want to keep him as simple as that."

Ferdinand: Fans wrong to think I'm off
Rio Ferdinand has reiterated his desire to sign a new contract with Manchester United and urged the club's supporters to be patient.

The defender was jeered by a section of United supporters during his side's 4-0 win at Charlton on Sunday.

But Ferdinand, linked with a move to Chelsea after being pictured with the Stamford Bridge club's chief executive Peter Kenyon, claims fans are wrong to think he will quit Old Trafford.

'I fully understand where the fans are coming from. If I was one of them I'd wonder when the deal was going to be signed as well.

'I won't pretend it was a comfortable feeling to have your own supporters getting on your back. But they need to know I want to stay at Old Trafford.

'They couldn't be further away from the truth if they think I want to go.

'Contracts do not get signed in five minutes. Most players take about six months to sort a deal.

'I've no intention of leaving. I want the contract sorted. If I could have signed it yesterday I would have.'

G.Heinze (the best defender this season for Man Utd, more worth than the $$$, keep it up)
W.Rooney (both Rooney & Ronaldo are sensational, but still need more times to prove themselves and most importantly, must learn to play as a team)


If cannot, then G.Heinze will b my choice!

Cheers'

[usjag_18]

That Mourinho will never stop one sia. Win means win. What best team or worst team. Got most possession, so what? Man Utd also got a lot possession @ most times what, but still, we never did well this season too.
Lose means lose, must be more GRACIOUS!!!

Anyway, guys, let's cheer up for our team nxt season, k!!! Dun let those Liverpool supporters kept saying tt our players are "Walking Alone!!!"

Kaoz... Taunted by a few supporters just now. *furious*
Help them support Liverpool against Chelsea, they still dare to say me, qian bian... hahaha, somemore they are my friends... lolx... :s13:

Guys, let's not let ppl said we let our players walked alone!!! C'mon, let's cheer for our players too.


Btw, guys, did U all notice how Liverpool & New Utd win over Chelsea? I find that the moment the team whichever scored against them earlier (but provided the defending team is STRONG enuff), the Chelsea player will be lacking of energy like tat...
Whoa, I feel like seeing what happened to F.Lampard's face expression looks like when Chelsea lost 1-nil to Liverpool.... Lolxxx... :P

I'm glad it was won by a dubious decision.............now Mourinho knows what we felt like when Scholesys goal was disallowed against Porto!

Lampard, Terry face England tour KO


Frank Lampard has revealed that both he and John Terry could miss England's post-season tour to the United States as they require minor foot operations.

Sven-Goran Eriksson may still decide to call up the Chelsea duo if Jose Mourinho's side fail to reach the Champions League final.

However, given that they have played more than 100 games between them this season, the England boss could err on the side of caution even if Chelsea lose tonight's semi-final tie against Liverpool.

Lampard revealed: 'Hopefully, we will win tonight and so reach the Champions League final. If that happens and I have the foot done straight afterwards, that would rule me out of the England tour.

'John [Terry] has had a similar problem for some time and his looks worse than mine.'

England have a two-match trip to the United States at the end of this month, facing the home nation and Colombia, and several club managers have expressed reservations about the wisdom of the tour.

Eriksson will nevertheless make sure that he does not endanger the long-term fitness of any player, especially those with existing injury concerns.

Kaoz, if they KO, den I dun see why our players cannot get away from that stupid US tour. If they insist on keeping our players and not letting them to rest, then I felt that Man Utd, Arsenal should start to complain and sue the bloody ENGLISH FA committee!!! Tired our players to siao, then let Chelsea's players got more time to rest??? What kinda of stupid logic is that???

Stupid English FA!

[usjag_18]

I'm glad it was won by a dubious decision.............now Mourinho knows what we felt like when Scholesys goal was disallowed against Porto!
ha ha....eat that,fecker! :s13:
Lolx... Seriously, I agreed with what U said in that part abt Scholesy's disallowed goal, but seriously, Chelsea is definitely not the better team.

Anyway, I really dun understand those Liverpool supporters. Luis Gracia is such a good player & they still always complaint abt him not being able to play well. Seriously, if not becos of Rafael Benitez's connection in Spanish league, hw can they b able to sign such a good player. 生在福中，不知福!!!

But they insisted that all first team members have to go that time, except for M.Owen & D.Beckham since they are still in La Liga. Anyway, if like that, I rather our players KO too. Hw can this kinda of thing kept happening? For goodness' sake, in the first place, England has the worst condition to play games while others are resting in mid-term, it's already disadvantage for us liao. Den somemore, coming season, we might need to play UEFA qualifying rounds again. Den always asking Man Utd players to do this & that, then still always FINE us like NO TOMORROW sia!!!

Wah, I really buey tahan. Feel like using swearing words to scold those English FA committee members! Duno hw they work out one.

[usjag_18]

nay, don't really like him liao :s13:
Sure or not??

Wah, good morning everyone... So I bet everyone are up now becos they are so exciting abt the game between Liverpool & Chelsea until no one went to slp after the game, right??? lolx... :s13:

no i felt this is nessary for a friendly match before end of season to tried out players ...do u know that other country have world cup qualifier and confideration cups in june while our english players will have direct rest during june. yes going to places to americans is not good...but i agree that we should have friendlys before players going for season break. england only have 1 year before world cup. if we don't test the players like downing , A.johnson, G.johnson and etc and play together...Mr sven don't really know their strength and weakness....

it's like man u ,chelsea , arsenal going for pre season friendly...so does england team...this is call end of season friendly...i felt this is a must or else we miss this next 1 is the very important world cup qualifiers...in sep ...and we don't want another donkey display like austria game...lat sep 04....

[usjag_18]

Hahaha... Not a big fan of England. Except for my mom, she's a super big fan for the jack's flag. hahaha... :s13:

I dun mind if the pre-season is playing for the individual clubs. Afterall, U can just tested out by letting them play 4 their clubs, even though formation aint the same, but aint all players from Europe or South Americans played like this? Learning thru clubs pre-season & @ the same time get enuff of rest. Whereas, U mentioned about they playing during June, that's just a short matches which last only 1-2 days, except for Confederation Cups. However, this Confederation Cups usually dun include a lot players or at least main players who are in Europe playing. So maybe it's not tt important to them? I find that sometimes, they can just field a few main or first team players to play this kinda of games.
Moreover, which country like England, play the game non-stop one?

But U got your points, and I guess we do have differences. I guess it's right for England supporters to think that way. But at least, it's good to bring out to discuss... hahaha... :s13:
Cheers'

However, it will be really disadvantage to players from Man Utd & Arsenal (even I m reluctant to say it) but Sr Alex Ferguson & Arsene Wenger are right to disagree this trip. What if the players got hurt in process. Moreover for this kinda of pre-tournament tour should be the time for England coaches/managers to find new GEMS and put them into training and join the first-team and not always stick with the same OLD players. At least, imo, stop using D.Beckham for once and let S.Downing & S.Wright-Philips to try out.

But seriously, even Man City's temp coach, Stuart Pearce is also not so keen in letting SWP to go for a pre-tournament tour. I guess it's alright for Downing to go as our former assistant coach, Steve McClaren is still helping out the national team.

[usjag_18]

Hey guys, I wanna to say that Man Utd really should start to take notice of their own young dudes, I meant those GKs, not DEFENDERS or STRIKERS, but GKs.

After this week games, I notice two GKs from Charlton (Stephan Andersen) & Boro (Bradley Jones). I have watched both matches and find that even though they got lost & draw results respectively, I find them quite flexi and also got the speed. Especially the 2-3 saves by Charlton's Andersen. If not becos of his speed and pace, I guess our players should be able to score more than 4 goals. As for Boro's Jones, he's also quite good. The way he jump and punched the ball really makes me felt that he's a GK w/confident. And also from the way Soccernet.com commented that Stephan Andersen is named as the future Peter Schmeichel, I really felt he does have the charisma & actions & abilities like Schmeichel, especially, hw he saved the almost-goal from A.Smith the first time. And also I noticed how he will shout towards his defenders and picking up the ball slowly and still looking around and so alert like how Great Dane always did. Whoa... Am I praising him too much.... Lolx...


Maybe it's time to "dig the hole" and find some gems inside our very own youth team. Even though the above two players are not from youth team of perspective clubs, bt wat's the point of training a bunch of kids and not letting them have chances to prove themselves? right?


Hey, btw, did u guys notice, both Boro's GKs are from Australia. Bradley Jones & Mark Schwarzer? hehehe... Another new discovery... hahaa.

[chengsun]

morning guys...... i shld have posted much earlier, but wth, hwz hang right after liverpool's win, think lots of fans floading in ...... so i went back sleep......

[MatrixFanatic]

Sure or not??

Wah, good morning everyone... So I bet everyone are up now becos they are so exciting abt the game between Liverpool & Chelsea until no one went to slp after the game, right??? lolx... :s13:

Even if Ferdinand signs the contract, I will still dislike him. :s27:

[usjag_18]

okok, relax guys... hahaha... I am just kidding around, relax lah.. coolx down...

[chengsun]

though the feeling of seeing chels bow out of CL is great, damn great, but, didu enjoy watching that game itslef? do u wanna our players play that kind of game?

[nakitas]

Last nite's game was simply great... So happy when t final whistler goes... :D

[usjag_18]

chengsun bro, what's the game like? didn't get to watch it. hahaha, becos I decided to cancel the sports channels since nwdys really nothing interests me other than soccer, so cancelled it off.

Anyway, wat's the game like? Horrible? Excellent?

[chengsun]

hmmmm, it is not a free flow football, most of the time, the ball is at the midfield, most passes around in midfield, then when last cross or pass to the striker, kena taken by opponents, n very tight closing down to opponent, basically u got no space to dribble, especially for liverpool, no space, so more left onli 1 striker upfront. n last thing is, almost every shot by chels kena blocked by pool players, u saw chels player shot, then kean blocked, think dudek onli made 1 full stretching save.
seriously, i dun enjoy this kind of game.....

[chengsun]

btw, i got no sports channel though i got scv, watch channel 5 lah

[usjag_18]

In another word, they are playing full-force defence after a goal, right? :s13:
It's so typical for Liverpool players to do so. IT's well-known for it's defending.


Anyway, I am so pi55ed off nw. Just congrats my fren who's a Liverpool supporter. Dare to taunt me. Kaoz... He msged me first one. Otherwise, wun even congrats him. He's such a b.a.s.t.a.r.d, said tat wait Liverpool beat AC Milan, a team which beat us and when we beat Liverpool. So which means Liverpool is still more superior than Man Utd. Kaoz...

Usually, I wun mind who goes into final if Man Utd didn't go into final. But now I am damn pi55ed off. So AC Milan better win over PSV and eventually Liverpool! Kaoz.. Ytd, I still supporting Liverpool... But today, AC Milan better WIN the trophy @ the end of the day! Kaoz... Otherwise, wat's the point of us winning Liverpool a double this season but lose to a loser to Liverpool!

[United_Treble]

can u c drogba's face after e whistle blow? sibei ugly, serve him right, talk too much, hope we can inflict more pain to them at old trafford in one wk time, thou they already champion, im sure utd fan still feel great when we beat them :_)

basically his contribution last night is just pushing the opponent players, din see him running inthe right directions, did he shoot? think gud shot more than him

[usjag_18]

the rules of team beaten Man U win the final cannot be broken, haha
You are absolutely right man! If they cannot win Liverpool. Den they dun deserve to win us. If they lose out to PSV, still not so bad sia. But still I hope they can win. Afterall, they are another team with the nickname of "Red Devils".

[kahmun7]

good morning guys..
well it;s not really beautiful football. but the excitment is still there. Just like some other teams when they lose, they will say it is not very beautiful football the winner is playing... I think it's just a case of sour grapes.. Sometimes, it is about getting the job done. With Liverpool, yes they are somehow lacking in the Premiership, but if you look at it..They know their strength is in defence, and you know you cannot afford to allow Chelsea too much space to roam. So closing them down is the right tactic and they use that against Chelsea, in the end... this works.. and that is all that matters... I quote this from Vin Diesel "It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile, Winning is Winning" hehe...

And Jamie Carragher gets my vote for Man of the Match yesterday... Absolute Rock in the Liverpool Defence man...

[chengsun]

i ahve top agree on jamie. he is no more the jamie last time......

[kahmun7]

Last nite's game was simply great... So happy when t final whistler goes... :D
I think also damned kelong wan..
I still wonder what was there to justify for that 6 minutes of injury time...
was holding my breath for the last 6 minutes... hehe...
never thought I can be so happy over a Liverpool win..
now if they can only repeat that against Arsenal this weekend... :D
and after that, we need Everton to do the same as well..

[chengsun]

yah, 6 minutes...... u see all the pool fans covering their face......
if that goal not ocunted, it shld be an penalty right? since cech brought down baros, am i right?
i think cisse can do much better than last night, wasted 2 very good chances

[usjag_18]

think he's around 31-32, or maybe 33..
Ya, he can, just like Chris Coleman (Fulham's Wales coach). But if OGS gt determination, I think he still play @ least 1-2 seasns. Hope tat he can show his determination and maybe it will be a good example for our youngsters.

[kahmun7]

u said it... 2 mins max. So 6-2 = 4 mins of added time. Quite typical what.

[Kiwi8]

a WIN is a WIN, U cannot denied the fact! If Chelsea players are determined enuff, I bet U that they will win no matter how tough the defence Liverpool players have setup!
Hello! Did I deny what? :s11: :s11:
I only said "kelong ki lanz" leh.

[usjag_18]

er... we did a sweep against Liverpool this season, does it mean we should get the Champions League title if Liverpool won it instead? another mindless fan talking nonsense... doh!
Kahmun bro, I never like this person one. Also duno hw come I get to know him. Just trying to forget abt him, then suddenly rcvd msg from him. Kaoz.. Last time when Man Utd won all kinds of trophies, I also never taunted him, still encouragingly said that next yr will be a better yr 4 Liverpool. Kaoz, in the end, this year, they got in2 final, then he comes and taunt me. Shld never be nice to him b4.

[kahmun7]

u said it... 2 mins max. So 6-2 = 4 mins of added time. Quite typical what.
did u see any players injured or anything??? even first half Gudjohnsen went off to get his injury looked at also gets 1 min injury time nia... second half there wasn't really any long stoppage wat...
even 4 minutes is too much... didn't you hear the surprise of the commentators when the length of injury time was announced? they were as surprised as I was.
Anyway... This is just my opinion.

har har... I have frens like dat as well... like I mentioned not too long ago, There were Pool fans who thinks Pool has better achievement over Man Utd because they won five trophies in a season after Man Utd's treble... It's pretty illogically debating with them. just let them say whatever they want...

[usjag_18]

relax, i am just saying it as it goes smoothly in a sentence and also I added something else and U didn't read it.

The commentators were surprised at the 6 mins, not 4 mins.

[Ronaldo_7]

Lai lai. Name your player.

For me it's Heinze by a long shot.
hmm... Rooney Ronaldo and Heinze.. they are the best performer this season in my opinion... Heinze has been superb since he came back from the Argentina international game... quick to attract supporters with his hard tackling and physical games.. as for Rooney.. he started with a Bang in the CL and has done quite well though theres a period that he lost form.. but he never gives up.. i like his body strength too.. Ronaldo.. what attracts me to him is his fancy footwork and break of speed to get pass defenders.. but i guess he needs to improve on crossing bah.. his crosses are OK only.. imagine if he has beckham's crossing and his speed.. but.. its impossible.. God Is Fair :)

[Ronaldo_7]

though the feeling of seeing chels bow out of CL is great, damn great, but, didu enjoy watching that game itslef? do u wanna our players play that kind of game?
hmmm... ya its nt nice football.. but as long as they win.. they dun care hw they play.. nowadays clubs play like that de.. no more beautiful football liaoz :(

[Ronaldo_7]

In another word, they are playing full-force defence after a goal, right? :s13:
It's so typical for Liverpool players to do so. IT's well-known for it's defending.


Anyway, I am so pi55ed off nw. Just congrats my fren who's a Liverpool supporter. Dare to taunt me. Kaoz... He msged me first one. Otherwise, wun even congrats him. He's such a b.a.s.t.a.r.d, said tat wait Liverpool beat AC Milan, a team which beat us and when we beat Liverpool. So which means Liverpool is still more superior than Man Utd. Kaoz...

Usually, I wun mind who goes into final if Man Utd didn't go into final. But now I am damn pi55ed off. So AC Milan better win over PSV and eventually Liverpool! Kaoz.. Ytd, I still supporting Liverpool... But today, AC Milan better WIN the trophy @ the end of the day! Kaoz... Otherwise, wat's the point of us winning Liverpool a double this season but lose to a loser to Liverpool!
wahz tio taunt.. haha i got a few liverpool fans friends also like that.. that time man utd vs liverpool.. duno pool win or what.. i go lab... juz step in say me liaoz.. when man utd win that time.. i also nv say anything.. i wan see his reaction haha... he keep quiet.. nth to say.. :s13:
hmm.. i think the Champions Cup will belong to AC Milan bah..provided they manage to break Liverpool down.. which Chelsea yest failed to do.. lets see if AC can secure a spot in the Final tonight ~ :)

[Ronaldo_7]

good morning guys..
And Jamie Carragher gets my vote for Man of the Match yesterday... Absolute Rock in the Liverpool Defence man...
yesh... he alone block duno hw many shots liaoz... truly superb man... really the ROCK in Liverpool's defense..

[chengsun]

har har... I have frens like dat as well... like I mentioned not too long ago, There were Pool fans who thinks Pool has better achievement over Man Utd because they won five trophies in a season after Man Utd's treble... It's pretty illogically debating with them. just let them say whatever they want...
they lun too long oledi, so now must release. itis realy an achievement for them to even get into semi of CL, while for us, it is an failure if ew cannot even get the final 8 spots.
this is us, n our achievement in recent years is really a burden to us, but i like this burden.
just like the 5 (or 6) stars on Juv jersey is really a burden also, but if u ask them, they like it.

[Ronaldo_7]

yah, 6 minutes...... u see all the pool fans covering their face......
if that goal not ocunted, it shld be an penalty right? since cech brought down baros, am i right?
i think cisse can do much better than last night, wasted 2 very good chances
ya lor 6mins.... damn ridiculous man... hmmm duno leh.. cause garcia touch liao think shld be play on le bah.. if gt PK ref shld have awarded straight le... ya lor cisse wasted two.. gt one can score de.. the 2nd one IIRC... but its a good runout for him

[usjag_18]

wahz tio taunt.. haha i got a few liverpool fans friends also like that.. that time man utd vs liverpool.. duno pool win or what.. i go lab... juz step in say me liaoz.. when man utd win that time.. i also nv say anything.. i wan see his reaction haha... he keep quiet.. nth to say.. :s13:
hmm.. i think the Champions Cup will belong to AC Milan bah..provided they manage to break Liverpool down.. which Chelsea yest failed to do.. lets see if AC can secure a spot in the Final tonight ~ :)
I also wish to see PSV in the final but if AC Milan can't even get into final, I will be taunted again. Today got good moods until just now. In the end, didn't replied him back liao. Next time if I ever see his number again, will just ignore man.... Duno why some supporters just so childish.

[Ronaldo_7]

swee man...last nite i slept so soundly...
finally justice had been done

liverpool had fark chelsea off CL
ahahaha... slp until sibei song huh ah huat... :s13:

He did not too badly considering he was out of football for almost a full season...
Sigh, I think it would be worst when Ole comes back.. 2 full seasons out... :(
really miss our baby faced assassin.

ya lor... our baby face assassin who starred in the Treble '99 hai so sad for him to get such injury.. think by the time he come back... can announce retirement liao :(

[kahmun7]

The commentators were surprised at the 6 mins, not 4 mins.
Yes.. they were... u think they weren't remembering the 1-2 minutes interuption?
How often do you see a match have 6 minutes of stoppage time?
even when you have keepers injured and needed medical staffs looking at them, even when you have players fighting, they get maybe 4 minutes... 5 minutes tops.
Anyway, if you think it's justifiable, then okay lor... I'm not looking to argue with you or anything.
I'm just giving my opinion of the incident...

hmmm... PSV is a good team too.. think they will do a repeat as in the 1st leg bah... never give up attitude and battle to the last min.. really respect their determination and attitude man.. relax wor haha nt worth to get upset over something like that.. but sometimes i also do... when man utd lost or din performed well... hai

[travmufc]

was hoping for a chelsea-milan CL final actually. more exciting mah. although i enjoyed seeing chelsea lose too. haha.

[chengsun]

something to share. anyone noticed that, liverpoor played very poor corner play? always have another player standing near to the corner flag, then the corner taker just pass to him, but played very badly, either loss the ball themselves due to badly play, or kena tackled away. i wonder y rafa dun just play direct corner, set piece into the box, think harmann n hypia can head, if cisse there. cisse can head also.

[kahmun7]

not necessary to be more exciting, look at the attack, if they cant break down liverpool, even harder for them to break down milan. drogba confirmed freezed by nesta, gud will be taken after by stam, joe or robben wont have a good time facing cafu or maldini. lampard will be facing the madcow gattuso or ambrosini, n milan got another siao eh, seedorf. terry is good enough to handle crespo, but not enough to face kaka + crespo + sevchenko

i think they didn't even want to push any of the players up for the corner. and then instead of a goal kick they can give away a throw in at the corner of the field too.

[travmufc]

liverpool is becos of anfield also i think. if go neutral ground would they have such powerful defending? and i think if they play the same way against milan it is gone case for them lor. at least chelsea got some speedy wingers making a comeback to challenge milan's aging defence. :)

it will be interesting to see maldini and cafu trying to deal with duff and robben leh.

[travmufc]

liddat i think liverpool even more gone case lor. :s13:

for liverpool to play, it is more like fighting for midfield.

yeah... AC Milan is one of the "perfect" teams ard now.. both good in defence and offence.. the midfield gt Gattuso to link some more... think if Liverpool meet them.. i think most likely AC will win

Relax kahmun bro, dun bother w/him. He's just cannot endure the fact tt his beloved chelsea lose to a "low-life" team that lost twice in the league to them. Too much BIG TALK from Frank Lampard earlier on abt hw Liverpool and Arsenal draw & lose to Bolton and we lost or draw against Bolton and whereas they won and blah blah blah...

It depend on which angle are U seeing from. At defending wise, maybe midfield and defending team for Liverpooll surely able to stop them. However, if talking about attacking wise, I dun think Chelsea got any chances against AC Milan. And defending wise for AC Milan, they are kinda of solid, especially, when Cafu is up, the two centre back will stayed put to support and wait till the balls come back to their side. Even their defender, Cafu, also can come up and attack, this is really something, every team have to take notice.

However, let's not forget, AC Milan players are used to fast speed & wideness (space), so if Liverpool able to play in a slow game, they might still have a chance. Afterall, Liverpool can be very slow and defensive. And this is only for their midfielders. The combination of their midfielders and strikers are almost perfect.

u talk what cock? I'm not even a Chelsea fan in the first place! :s22:

My point is, when u guys comment, do it in the right perspective lah. Dun be becos of hating Chelsea, that anything that favours Chelsea becomes kelong, unfair, etc.

Wonder how the "SPECIAL" or "CHOSEN" one felt??? lolx... All way behind Liverpool? My foot, more like cursing and swearing abt them now...

I don't hate Chelsea. I dun even know what happen until kahmun bro mentioned abt the 6mins injury time which is a little bit ridiculous in my opinion. Since I never see a match that last more than 6 mins even there's serious injuries. And also mind your language when U saying me "talking cock"... I am just expressing myself in a more civilised way and not so uncivilised like U.

Anyway, it's your attitude that makes me said that in the first place. And U are making yourself sounds like a Chelsea supporter imo.

I think it is becos they want to waste some time.. I would have employed the same tactics... why want to take the risk? so late in the game.. if Chelsea get one goal, even one, Liverpool would have lost and left banging their head on the wall... like in Carling Cup Final... so just bring the ball as far away as possible from their goal... If corner is awarded, I would not risk Hyypia and Caragher out of position, and let Chelsea Counter attack, and I know they would... so just short pass the corner and run down the clock.

Chelsea is behind, but if they can get just one goal in, they go through. and there is really nothing much that backs that 6 minutes being added on. I don't know if you are Chelsea fan or whatever fan... but if you are not, then there's really nothing worth getting psyche up on your part. An opinion is just an opinion.. if you disagree, just say you disagree, no need for you to use strong language right?

As I said earlier, 3 to 4 mins of added time is typical for a match. Add in 2 mins for the time wasted by those 2 clowns running amok on the pitch one after another, it is just nice at 6 mins. That is my opinion and u r entitled to yours. Ultimately the decision lies with the 4th official, and I do believe that he wasn't doing kelong in giving out 6 mins added time.

Think of it this way, 1 or 2 mins extra shouldn't make the difference, as long as Liverpool did defend properly (which I could see that). The way I saw it, Chelsea wasn't going to score even if u give them 2 more mins.

har har... now that it's over of course we know that nothing changed and Liverpool still got their win... but we have all seen how an extra 2-3 minutes can cost you the win... you only have to look back at Man Utd vs Bayern's game in the Finals of 1999... Bayern was winning 1-0 and suddenly they are down 2-1... though Liverpool defended amicably, you won't know when Gerrard might decide to score for his future club again.. :s8: again I'm being sarcastic.. hehe.. I know Gerrard loves Liverpool, just can't help the pun. But if it happened otherwise, and Chelsea does score in that 2-3 extra minutes.. which Ithink you would agree they are capable of, then it will be debatable right ? Just like some of the Chelsea fans are now furious over whether or not Luis Garcia's goal actually crossed the line.

Okay fair enough... I think you got your point too, ultimately, it's up to the officials and the match is over, nothing much we can do anyway. :)

A team is supposed to play to the whistle. They need to defend until the final whistle blows. If they concede a goal when the final whistle hasn't been blown yet, they can't blame anyone else but themselves.

[mobo]

I just thought that 6 minutes of injury time is quite ridiculous.. and looked to be to Chelsea's advantage. Chelsea is behind, but if they can get just one goal in, they go through. and there is really nothing much that backs that 6 minutes being added on.

I thought it was quite clear... the two idiots who invaded the pitch near the end of normal time wasted a few minutes... thats why the ref had to add more minutes. The commentator Trevor Francis may have influenced you by ranting about why the added time was so long... this fella rather blur one... also it is SOP for 30 secs to be added for every substitution, and the ref stops his watch whenever there is a stoppage for incidents like when Terry kicked the ball at Cisse after the whistle and Cisse reacted angrily.

In the end of the added time Chesea nearly won it when Gudjohnson's diagonal shot just missed by inches... 1-1 and they would win on away goals.

i agreee.....like what happen to bayern in 1999....and u could see the face of kaffor and mathuess...

Ya the camera focused on Gallas at the end, who had tried to volley Garcia's shot clear for the goal... was kneeling on the ground crying like Kuffor in 1999. So many cameras and not one clear view of the goal crossing the line. The clear foul by Cech on his national teamate Baros just before the that would have been worse if Cech was sent off... remember the goal was given after just 4min so it was Chelsea's own dam fault for being so poor... first hour of play had zero shots on target.

In the end, seeing Mourhino's teary eyed interview was funny.... hero to zero within half a week...

Rainieri was sacked for only reaching the semis of the Champions' League last season... would JM face the axe :D ??

nonetheless the sight is still a good one... :s13: see how his brimming confidence is brought back down to earth...

Glad to see Chelski gone out last night, that means our 99 treble success still remain intact. :D

Now rooting for Milan to beat Pool in the final please. ;)

[mediacorpforever]

Looking at the atmosphere at Anfield against Chelsea, do u guys think Old Trafford can do something similar, like creating a couldrum inside the stadium? Old Trafford does not put fear into opponents like it once did as the team are not as destructive... the fans need to create a couldren, espcially on European nights.

Ferguson ready to show again he is not retiring sort
By Gary Jacob and James Ducker
May 04, 2005

SIR Alex Ferguson has often cited the period of Eric Cantona’s ban as one of the defining moments of his Manchester United reign because it allowed him to blood some promising youngsters who went on to become exceptional players. Ten years on and Ferguson is overseeing a rebuilding job with little money to spend in the summer to strengthen a squad that has fallen short of Chelsea and Arsenal this season.

Times have changed since David Beckham et al came through and now the United manager is just as likely to shop abroad for his fledgelings, the most recent being John Obi Mikel, the FC Lyn Oslo midfield player, and Nigel de Jong, the Ajax midfield player. United have agreed a deal for Mikel, the 18-year-old Nigerian, who will play for the Norwegian club while United monitor the player, who has to meet the requirements for a European passport. But he is not expected to arrive at Old Trafford until next year at the earliest.

United’s interest in De Jong, 20, stems from him being one of the most versatile players in Europe. The Holland player can play in defence, but his preferred position is on the right of midfield — a preference that led to him falling out this season with Ronald Koeman, the coach at the time, who played him in a variety of positions. De Jong has one year left on his contract, but Ajax are keen to ensure that he signs a new deal. “We won’t let him go. We will not quote a fee, we want to keep him, it is as simple as that,” Arie van Eijden, an Ajax director, said yesterday.

De Jong came to prominence when he scored an outstanding equaliser against Arsenal in the second group stage of the Champions League two seasons ago. Controlling a long, high, diagonal pass on the run, he veered inside and drove the ball past David Seaman. Since then, he has courted a move to the Premiership. “It’s my dream to play in England and the second club that I fancy behind Ajax is Arsenal,” De Jong said.

Should De Jong arrive at Old Trafford, he would join other prodigious young talents that Ferguson has begun to assemble. Cristiano Ronaldo is only 20 and Wayne Rooney 19, but there have been other notable arrivals, such as Gerard Pique, the defender, from Barcelona, and Giuseppe Rossi, the goalkeeper, from Parma.

Rooney’s tally of 17 goals this season, the latest in the 4-0 canter over Charlton Athletic on Sunday, is nearly double what he achieved at Everton in any season. “We want to win all our games going into the FA Cup Final (against Arsenal),” Rooney said. “April was a bad month, but we have got back to winning ways and we need to keep it going. The Cup Final is going to be massive. We will all be trying to keep fit so we can fight for our place.”

Many would be daunted by the task of rebuilding the team, but Ferguson has admitted that one of the main attractions of the job now is the prospect of developing another generation of players, as he did with Beckham, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt and the Neville brothers. They stepped on to the pitch with an ingrained team spirit and a love of the club that was cultivated from progressing through the youth ranks.

But even Ferguson may have concluded that time has caught up with that era. Butt has left the club and Giggs is 31; Scholes and Gary Neville are 30 and Roy Keane, the captain, will be 34 in the summer. Had Ferguson retired two years ago, when he intended to, the job of replacing these players would have fallen to someone else. “We’re building a great new team,” Ferguson said. “We have some of the best talent in the world and some young players who will be sure bets in this business in the future, so why would I want to retire?”

[Ronaldo7]

don't know is good news or bad news :s22:

[1920_me]

personally, i think shldnt sign players..let the current squad grow into a formidable unit

[jumpmanz]

yeah. got great potential players. but i some how don't like ronaldo.

[Kakashi82]

Should De Jong arrive at Old Trafford, he would join other prodigious young talents that Ferguson has begun to assemble. Cristiano Ronaldo is only 20 and Wayne Rooney 19, but there have been other notable arrivals, such as Gerard Pique, the defender, from Barcelona, and Giuseppe Rossi, the goalkeeper, from Parma.


Giuseppe Rossi, the goalkeeper, from Parma??? :s11:

[wawawa]

rossi not gk leh......




but i know velentino rossi is world moto GP champ hehe

[chengsun]

this rossi forward lah

[usjag_18]

Since u didn't even know what happened, I assume u did not watch the match. In that case, I suggest u watch the match first b4 commenting. :s22: :s22:

[usjag_18]

Giuseppe Rossi, the goalkeeper, from Parma??? :s11:
I think yulee typed too fast... hahaha...

[chengsun]

i hope can at least sign another solid defender, central defender or full back. Parma players, Bonera, Ferrari n Canavaro all not bad.

[RVN]

watching the PSV v Milan game clearly shown Milan are beatable, frustrated why we look so toothless and devoid of attacking ideas when we play against them. PSV shown us how to do it and were unlucky to go out in the end. :o

[Ronaldo_7]

yeah... no one is perfect.. PSV showed us that... haiz

[mobo]

dong fang zhuo anyone? :s13:

wo bu Dong... :D

[usjag_18]

It's determination to WIN and TEAMWORK. We dun have both of these. Finally, I watch the match yesterday. PSV is totally wonderful. They played as hard the team we have in 1999. It's a wonderful and exciting game.

I guess the reason we lost to AC Milan is above two plus our players are under too much stress to perform. So even though we know it's not right, but still, supporters are always expecting our players to win and win and forget that they are also human. Under such a stressful minds, I guess no one can win too. Whereas, PSV got nothing to lose, except their pride and they won the pride and everything. IMO, they are the BIGGEST winner of all even w/o going into FINAL.
And afterall, they become the first team to SCORE against AC Milan after the coming into the group stage. This proves a lot of important things liao.

P/S: Since A.Shevchenko still haven't scored his 7th or 8th goals, I guess RVN still got a chance to go for Golden Boots award. Hahaha.. So much for a bad season yet can go for that award. I guess it shld b sth 4 him. :s13: Anyway, update, unless L.Gracia scored a hat-trick or at least 4 goals, otherwise, he wun have chances to get Golden Boots as he's on his 5th goal tally now.

[chengsun]

is our players playing happy foorball like ronaldinho doing? i am not talking abt the performance, but the kind of feeling. u always see him smiling on the pitch, doing well or bad, good decision or bad decision ny referee, he smiles, he really enjoys he game

Watching the match reveals more things than just watching the highlights.

My attitude may be bad, but that's becos u started talking rubbish about me and I had to point that out. Imagine someone else accused u of a crime u never did? U gonna defend yourself rite? :s11:

[usjag_18]

Ronaldinho is really enjoy the games. The only time I saw him get so angry is due to the Chelsea match. Never see him so angry b4 after the match. I guess only when U enjoying to game itself or interested itself, then u will be doing well.

Players under tooo much stress to perform and also they wanted to have their own fame too much until they forget the importance of playing. I think it's either sacking SAF or getting a more confident captain. I still cannot forget how R.Keane got so nervous during the match against AC Milan. I find that he already lost his confidence during tt match. Totally so UNLIKE his usual self.

[chengsun]

Bayern is doing shopping for their next season now, bringing in Asia Player of the Year Karimi form Iran, and call back Lahm, who is on loan this season, at the end of the season.
can imagine they are getting stronger, think karimi is to fill Deisler void once he left for more regular action. What are we doing now? so many news, rumours but nothing confirmed, sign dun sign also cannot settle.
Anyone any comment on Bonera? Ferrari? P Canavaro? Mathew Upson?
Actually Deisler is a good player, but provided that he recover from his You Yu Zheng.

im not sure abt how he suffered depression, but the depression had costed him his chance in euro04, n klisman adviced him to leave for more regular match if he is to be choosen for wc06. still remember last time he was called as german beckham, due to his ability n he playat right side also.

was because of his injury and his wife suffered a miscarriage iirc :s22:

actually i think we need a left winger ( best if can operate on both wing ) and a defensive mid for our squad next season and i think we are ready . maybe we can bring in another keeper if carroll did not want to extend his deal with us . i hope the scouts can finally do something right after all those flops we had bought for the past 2 seasons .

i thot ronaldo can operate on both flanks ... remember seeing him switch flanks during Man U games. So he can play on the left flank, then on the right with Deisler also not bad (though i neber seen him play)

Anyway Deisler would come cheap .... every idiot club will think that Man U is chai tuo and wants exorbitant transfer fee for their players ... the best part is that Man U actually willing to pay!!!

United linked wuth Ballack

MANCHESTER United have been linked with a move for Germany and Bayern Munich star Michael Ballack.

United are desperate to find a long-term replacement to skipper Roy Keane in midfield, and Sir Alex Ferguson believes Ballack could do the job, according to the Daily Star.

Ballack, 28, has one year left on his contract at Bayern and is acknowledged as being one of the best players in the world.

However, a stumbling block could be Malcolm Glazer's proposed takeover at Old Trafford, as the Reds are unlikely to make a major transfer move until their financial future is clear.

http://www.manchesteronline.co.uk/sport/football/manchesterunited/s/157/157425_rumour_mill_reds_linked_with_ballack.html

Oh f*ck sakes, Glazer is disrupting our transfer plan. :mad:

the partially invisible paul scholes
the ageing roy keane
the inconsistent and ageing ryan giggs
the un-creative midfield
the goalkeeping issue

just read a magazine, an interesting stats abt vilarreal, where forlan comes alive again. forlan scores 18 goals for them this season, a competitor for golden boot award this year in spain, but the stat shows that, averagely, he shot 5 times or more in a game to have this rating, n for the whole team, they need average 24 chances in to have a goal! hmmm, maybe we din create enough chances for him, hahaha, anyway, dun bother anymore.

[usjag_18]

Hey bros, just came back from outside... Dead tired... Hope that I can read everyone's postings one by one. But too tired.

So I just anyhow say things 4 what I saw, k... If got anything wrong, just correct me, k.... :tired:

Anyway, abt Ballack, if U asked me, I think I can only say that I dislike him w/his irritating face. But one thing tt i cannot denied is he's an excellent player with creative mind and quite active. Why quite active & not v.active? BEcos sometimes, when he played, he tend to leave those ez job to his team-mates, he just like to do those "heavy duty" jobs, i guess he's more towards fame & $$$ sometimes. However, is he being mercenary (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=mercenary) (click the word if U need help with the meaning), it's really hard to say. Afterall, he never been to other country to play due to $$$, so it's hard to say him mercenary as no one can deny the fact that he wanna to win and to win, he can only choose a bigger club in Germany or go overseas. Since no one interested in him overseas, then B.Munich will be the largest club he can join in Germany.

However, if Man Utd wants him, they better prepare to be extremely generous to him. As dun think B.Munich will be so generous enuff to let go one of their best or better player so cheaply. :s8:

Wah, just went to his official person webby. He already got 3 kids but still not married yet... Being guys are really nice... Nt married and with kids, also no one will bother. If it's a lady soccer player, I think the news will be shocking and ppl surely will comment on such things.

I just think that United have gone too long with the same midfield. Giggs, Keane and Scholes have been in the team for years on end. Even when their standards have dropped, Fergie has refused to replace them or bring in quality players to compete with places for them. The midfield that was good enough 6 years ago is not good enough anymore. :o

The midfield that was good enough 6 years ago is not good enough anymore.

Yup, it is true that the older players' age has catched up with them. But still, the club needs them to guide the younger players to compete in the English Premiereship and the UEFA Champions League. In order to succeed in the big stage, I feel that a squad should have a mix blend of youth and experience so that they can endure the pressure on a big stage.

However, the older players can't last forever and we need to replace them. Unfortunately, at the moment, the club is unable to produce younger players who has the same calibre as giggs, beckham, nicky butt, scholes and the Neville bros. That is why we need to buy skillful players from other clubs. However, they fetched a high price as their transfer fees may go as high as to millions of pounds. It is diificult for the club to afford these players, since the club is a public listed company and they have to mantain good financial performance.

It is not that fergie refused to bring in quality players. He does not have the $ to bid for these players. :(

Reds Strike Duo Return

Ruud van Nistelrooy and Louis Saha could return to action against West Brom on Saturday. Van Nistelrooy has missed the last two games with a bruised foot, while Saha has not played since the start of last month when he was forced off calf strain during the defeat to Norwich. "Ruud did some good running yesterday [Tuesday] and that's good news," Fergie told the Manchester Evening News. "He says he is 100 percent now so he'll be okay for Saturday. He will play because he definitely needs games." Saha featured for the reserves on Monday in the Pontin's League Cup win. "I have to think about some part of Saturday's game for Louis. I am sure he will get a bit of the match. He will probably start as sub and come on. Strikers such as van Nistelrooy, Saha and Alan Smith need to be getting football."

[chengsun]

hmmm talking abt producing good young players... there is an article in the magazine that i read, talked abt Tottenham, their principle in buying players in recent 2, 3 years.
current tottenham squad, 1st team, got lots of english player, paul robinson, ledley king, anthony gardner (think this one got double nationality), michael dawson, sean davis, michael brown, michael carrick (they got so many michael, if just call michael, dun know calling which one sial...), jermaine defoe, johnnie jackson and the rohan ricket and calum davenport who are both on loan to other clubs, if include the players from ireland, north ireland n wales, there r even more, robbie keane, andy reid, simon davies and stephen kelly. all od them are just from 19 to 26 years old, very young team. n since naybet kena injured, the starting lineup has become very young, no player older than 26 yo.
though currently most of the players not from their own youth academy, but i really like this kind of principle, and they actually are able to buy very good quality young players, like dawson, carrick, sean davis defoe, at rather reasonable price.
in years to come, i expect more and more of them willing challenging england team positions.
not saying that it is bad to use foreign player, but still think that if u are able to groom ur local young players and show the result, u will have the loyalty, maybe not all, but the loyalty will be there.

United finally get Stam fee after four-year wait

Legal wrangle averted as Lazio settle after lengthy and costly delay

Daniel Taylor
Friday May 6, 2005
The Guardian

Manchester United have withdrawn the threat of legal action against Lazio after announcing last night, to their intense relief, that the Italian club have finally paid off the £16m transfer fee for Jaap Stam - nearly four years after he left Old Trafford.
United also revealed that Lazio's inability to pay the full amount, as stipulated, within a year of Stam signing in August 2001 had netted them a further £1.3m. Under the terms of a rescheduled agreement, the Old Trafford board had insisted Lazio pay interest as a form of compensation that would, in effect, take Stam's transfer fee up to £17.3m. Stam moved to Milan for a reported £4m in 2004.

The alternative was the possibility of a legal case in which England's biggest club had threatened to sue their Roman counterparts. Lazio had cited "serious financial difficulties".
United had called in Uefa as long ago as September 2002 after revealing they were owed still £12m. Their lawyers subsequently obtained a contractual guarantee from Lazio's parent company, Cirio, that the money would be paid in full.

quite weird ... in fulham he doesn't seem to be injured so easily and can scored so many goals ... esp when against Man U ... but then in Man U .... fulham must be laughing @ Man U now ...

maybe he kana brittle bone disease when come to Man U :s27:
really hope he bucks up and perform the club he so eagerly wanted to join in the first place.

[usjag_18]

hahah i see him in the charlton match.. like nt stable one.. hai..
J.O'Shea? In fact, I find him alright @ the Charlton's game. Even though he & Giggs are quite quiet, but they did contribute a little bit lah. Afterall, they didn't get sent off is good thing liao.

[usjag_18]

hahaha... maybe he shld see a bone specialist or a psychologist. It's either his bones are having something wrong or he's having those psychology problems. Afterall, he's first-choice in Fulham whereas he's NOTHING in Man Utd. I guess he needs to see a psychologist to analysed his problems.


Anyway, I guess it's better tat he recovered this time. Once and for all. But at least compared to Real Madrid, we are still not the worst joke. I think New Utd is really the one who's havin the last laugh man... Afterall, Woodgate haven't played for Real Madrid YET. LOLX... :s13:

[Ronaldo7]

iirc , saha was also quite injury prone when he was at fulham :s22:

wonder how long he is going to last in the next match .

hahaha... maybe he gt brittle bone disease like stated in one of the earlier posts lor or maybe he in man utd so defenders tend to tackle harder.. :s22:

lolz.. Woodgate.. he really power manz.. think he will be involved in a part exchange in the future.. someone like Owen who has such a good scoring rate also treated like duno what.. they buy players so that next time can be used to trade for those players they want de lor..

[chengsun]

the most wasted player there i think is samuel walter. he was so solid in roma......

[Ronaldo_7]

ya... a rock in roma but go to madrid.. like maciam buey gan like that.. duno why also..

We don't need players going out. Our midfield quite thin IMO..

[RuMmYtUb]

Eh guys, i think Edu might be a gd and free signing.. :s13:
Any comments?

[usjag_18]

S.Walter will be better off if he continue staying @ Roma. Afterall, he's well-liked over there.


Anyway, I think Glazer should be rotting @ home and die of heart-attack when having sex w/his mistress.

Chelsea to wreck Man Utd hopes with £18M Essien bid

Chelsea are planning to trump Manchester United for Lyon midfield star Mickael Essien.

The Ghana international, who could have joined United for nothing after trials as a teenager, is a target for both Premiership heavyweights.

The Mirror says Chelsea Roman Abramovich has given his blessing to the Premiership champions' first major swoop of the summer and talks are at an advanced stage over a £18 million switch.

Despite the player admitting his love for United, Sir Alex Ferguson cannot compete with Chelsea's financial muscle.

CHELSEA!!!! F*Ck Off from our RONALDO!!!! :s27:

In fact, b4 we got Ronaldo, Mourinho already shows interests in him. But becos of the early agreement between Sporting & Man Utd and also tt time he's still has not yet signed with Chelsea, still with Porto, so he doesn't had a chance to do anything.

Ruud & Saha return to face Baggies

Ruud van Nistelrooy and Louis Saha will both be involved against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday, Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed.

Van Nistelrooy has missed the last two games with a briused heel, while Saha has been out of action since he hobbled off during the 2-0 defeat at Norwich.

Aside from long-term injury victim Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the only other absentee is Gabriel Heinze, who faces a race against time to be fit for the FA Cup final on 21 May.

"We've got a strong squad and most of the players are fit and fresh but I will be utilising the pool," explained the Boss at his pre-match press conference. "Ruud's done some good training this week which I'm very pleased about, as has Louis Saha.

"I want to involve Louis in a big way and there will be one or two other changes against West Brom."

Sir Alex is refusing to give up the chase for second place despite Arsenal's four-point lead.

Liverpool, who will be full of confidence after securing a Champions League final place, travel to Highbury on Sunday knowing they have to win if they're to have any hope of finishing fourth.

A draw or a win for Rafael Benitez's side would open the door for United, who Ferguson insists, must just keep winning matches.

"Winning our games is the most important thing for us because we have to try and finish in that second spot," he insisted.

"Scoring goals has been the area which we've been working very hard on in training and the form we showed at Charlton is the kind of form we want to take into the Cup final.

"Last Sunday the movement and the tempo of our game was terrific and we had a very good rhythm. That's what we're always looking for at this club and that was the key to the victory."

Report by Gemma Thompson, at Carrington.

OT a bit.. saw the other thread which is still discussing abt the garcia goal, which is in anot, n if it is advantage to pool, penalty, redcard stuff, though all over liao. just reminded 1 of our famaous game. remember our game vs juventus during the return game in turin? we draw at home, at turin we were down to 0-2 at the begining of the game, thx to inzagi n serginho. the 2 superb goals by kean draw us back, then came this very moment. yorke got clear n on the run towards goal, van der sar brought him down in the box, but cole got the ball n slotted into the goal, n we won the game!
dun u think very similar situation, just tat ours is a clear GOAL.
