After the comments Mourinho made about who the real Ronaldo is a few weeks back, Its highly unlikely lol.

 

[heon123]

I see him signing a new contract at Madrid and retiring there. I saw a Sky Sports comp before a La Liga match and he said that he doesn't know about the future, but the past is past.

Nani claims he has a lot to offer United,
https://www1.skysports.com/football...d-him-to-sign-a-new-deal-at-manchester-united

At this stage all he's fit for is selling programmes but I have my doubts about his ability to do that.

I can see it now,

A fan goes up to him and gives him the cash....he'd take the money then fall down like he's been shot and start rolling around on the floor like he's in agony.

When he finally gets up and stops pretending to be injured he'd do a stepover and then give the programme to the person queuing directly behind the fan who gave him the cash.

Man Utd 1-1 Crystal Palace

Good to see you showing abit more optimism, and faith in Moyes.

 

[bumblebee]

USA national team is now ranked 13th in the world!!!




This team has come a long way.

Not really....it's Palace

United's squad is terrible in term of being able to compete with the best, but it's still got enough to get something against teams like that.

 

[RagingBull]

Good to see the Prem returning tomorrow. I couldn't take watching another England game

Does anyone else do the Sky Super 6? If not join up its free to play. Get all the results right this week & you could win a £million, it's normally 250K. I don't think anyone's won it yet though

Sadly due to me being in Australia I can't, would have liked a million big ones though.

If that's what happens it'll be no real suprise.

It was easy to buy into the media hype about a possible return to United but realistically it was never likely because of varying factors.

United meanwhile are 1-0 up at half time against Palace thanks to a RVP penalty which was somewhat dubious due to Ashley Young's tendency to dive....he'd already been booked for an earlier dive when the penalty was awarded.

EDIT
United win 2-0, the second goal coming via a Rooney free kick.

Immediately after falling over the ball the ever useless Anderson was replaced by Fellaini who did OK, he had a good shot at goal and he certainly looks like he'll add some muscle to the midfield.

Even more promising was 18 year old Adnan Januzaj who replaced Ashley Young. He was one of the brightest players in pre-season and he was very positive....he was very quick at beating players and trying to get crosses or shots in which was a huge contrast from the dithering Valencia.

I'd throw him and Zaha in at the deep end for the Manchester derby as they have much more to offer than any of the 3 Stooges ( Young, Valencia and Nani )

 

[heon123]

Couldn't agree more, Valencia and Anderson were again the weak points in the team, I'm not starting with Young. Good performances from everyone else though and I think it's very clear to Moyes to start Januzaj instead of Young and Valencia.

Looking forward to watching MOTD tonight and the new players on show. Eriksen and Ozil with very good debuts. Should be good.

Yeah MOTD will be good tonight. Arsenal & Spurs currently 1st & 2nd as of speaking but Chelsea or Liverpool could change that.

I must admit I've been disappointed in Man City so far this season. Still early days though

Should be good. Yes they have struggled so far and I do think it will take a while to click but they will come good.

Liverpool could really take a lead with they'ye next 6 games. All winnable.

Everton up 1-0 over Chelsea.




Come on Timmy bring home the shutout!!!

 

[bumblebee]

Everton beat Chelsea 1-0



Third shutout of the year for Tim Howard, guys a stud. I'm suprised top clubs aren't interested in him.

I can only assume sacking for Mourinho is imminent.
