He's very good, not a great attacking or crossing thread but a great tackler and very fast. Who needs an attacking full back when you can play Duff, Robben & Cole in the winger position :snooty:
Don't recall that game well as I was in teh pub. I do remember Roony almost losing it, Neville kicking Reyes up in the air several times (to much applause) and Xavi playing out of his skin but the rest is a blur. Never really noticed him in other games either, I guess.
And stop showing off about Robben and Duff :snooty: :lol:
Yeah someone kicks the ball over the top and it goes off Rooney just missing it, the Keeper goes to get the ball and Rooney stands theer till he's bending over and give him a nice shove over the secruity fence :lol: Ref was too far away to see.
BTW Manker, who's better,
Robben
Duff
Klieberson
Miler
:unsure:

Rooney has quality, however Ronaldo is a bit too much of a pussy for me to like, and i like most pussy.
Come within 20 feet of him and he hits the deck faster than a Drogba attempting the fly.
If you look at both squads, first XI and the subs, Chelsea have a far better team, except maybe the attacking side, at which point i think it would be best if we just played 6 in midfield.
After a quality forward signing i seriously cannot see Rooney and Ronaldo coming any close to the quality of a fully fit Chelsea team. Hey even without Drogba (Good thing) Duff, Robben, Bridge, Terry, Ferrerier or Cech we still manage to kick your asses 3-1 (Should have been 2-1 tho)
All those players we missed ammounted to about £82 million + however much you would say Terry is (At least £25 million pushing on £30 million.
Oh and its gonna be a hard summer for Sir Alex, on paper Man U should seriously be kicking ass. Defence looks strong (could add maybe 1 more world class signing as Brown looks iffy) Midfield is starting to age but still there all great talents (Minus Klieberson) but lacks good bench support. Attack is very good (Rooney & VNR are extreamly gifted but then theres Saha & Smith who never really do anything apart from warm the bench. Think when VNR is out for 2 months who else do you play up front thats a prove goalscorer? When Ronaldo is on the floor claiming he's broken his leg who do you pull out the back? Klieberson, the player who in his last 10 appearances has not scored and funny enough in those last 10 games for Man U they have not won.
Chelsea have a number of supporting players. Defence for example Johnson is are only weak point. Gallas, Terry & Carvalho are all world class. Brige & now Del Horno are both good. Midfield you've got Duff who plays on the left, then you've got Robben & Cole who can play on either the left or the right. Lampard who's one of the best attacking midfielders in the game and Mackalele who is the best holding midfielder in the game. Take a few of them away and who can you play.... Tiago? may cast your minds back to his 30 yard strike against teh Redage. You can bring back Gudjonson into an attacking midfield position, much like Rooney plays. Maybe we still need another midfielder, Jarosik is shyte and havn't seen enough of Smertin.
Up front in our main issue, Drogba is okay, he was class at the start of the season but then hit injuries and the last half was utter shyte. Kezman in my mind didn't get enough playing time and starts and he could be a big hit at the Bridge in my view. Gudjohnson is our only real sucess of the season but he doesn't really play striker anymore, he's more of an attacking midfielder.

Re: Off Season Puntsphere Rumours.
Fecked if I'm going to answer that at ten past three! I'll look again tomorrow. Nice post tho'.
Have to explain, when I said the reds have it - I meant the red font. Rooney and Ronaldo are better than Duff and Robben.

30 past 3 now, although im not sure if i agree with your claim about teh blue wingers :01:
If we really want to be fair we should compare each player to where he plays.
Cech/Howard
Ferrieir/Nevil
Terry/Ferdinand
Carvalho/Brown
Del horno/Hienze
Duff/Ronaldo
Lampard/Keane
Mackalelele/Scholes
Robben/Giggs
Gudjohnson/Rooney
Drogba/RVN
At only 2 places there would i choose Man U players (Rooney & RVN).
BTW pissed out my skull so can't be assed to check players spellings :bawa:
editage: just been confirmed chelsea have put in a bid worth £57 mill for Shevchenko. Milan are still to decide what to do...

Bah, at least let me pick the United side.
As it stands, I have it 6-5 to United. I'm just copying and pasting from yours 'cos I'm stoned. Duno if you know but I'm always right after a smoke.
Cech/Howard Blue
Ferrieir/Nevil Red
Terry/Ferdinand Red
Carvalho/Brown Blue
Del horno/Hienze Red
Duff/Ronaldo Red
Lampard/Keane Blue
Mackalelele/Scholes Blue
Robben/Giggs Blue
Gudjohnson/Rooney Red
Drogba/RVN Red
Scholes was a tough call. Tomorrow I might think he's better.
Re: Off Season Puntsphere Rumours.
Thinking about it Del Horno/Hienze was a close one for me as well, Hieze is good but i havn;t seen enough of Del horno.
Ronald/suff is also close but i still think Duff is a better player.
Terry is way better than Ferdinand, and he's not sniffing coke :lol:
i just picked the Man u side i thought was best, unless you want klieberson on for Rooney :unsure:
hoping milan accept the 57 mill for shevy, 57 mill could get you alot of smoke if your the milan coach :lol:
Re: Off Season Puntsphere Rumours.
Chelski are finding it really tricky to sign a world-class centre forward, now they want Crespo back. Their bids this summer have equalled something in excess of £300million - all have been flatly refused by either the player or the club.
Adriano - nah.
Samuel Eto'o - nah.
Thierry Henry - nah.
Andriy Shevchenko -nah.
David Trezeguet - nah.
Fernando Torres - nah.
Even Owen has intimated that he'd prefer to go to United - and Fergie doesn't want him.
Funny, even though they have billions at their disposal, they can't attract big players at big clubs. Wonder if it's anything to do with prestige.
Re: Off Season Puntsphere Rumours.
I think its more to do with all of those strikers like where they are and are in big enough clubs.
Chelsea should put in a bid for up and coming Brazilian star Robinho.
Tevez plays for a brazilian side but is Argentinaian and is class. Fernando Cavenghi is also going to be a world class striker in the next few years. However Chelsea want a proven striker now.
Re: Off Season Puntsphere Rumours.
No. It's that they're already at a bigger club and to move to Chelsea would be a step down - not so much in footballing class but in prestige.
I think Robinho is off to Madrid, despite the Arsenal rumours - he's another of those S. American players where companies own him rather than a club, which often complicates matters. Tevez is quality but he's only just moved. Give him another year, maybe two, at Corinthians (or wherever he is) and he'll be in Europe. From what I've seen he's a better striker than Robinho.
