Congrats on the Hammers` win, which increased their lead at the top of the table Tracy.

Sorry about Bayern being able to only get a draw Ker.

Arsenal finally got a PL league yesterday as they crushed Blackburn 7-1 with Robin van Persie leading the way with another hat trick and even the legend Thierry Henry got in the act, scoring his first PL goal since 2004. Good win for the Gunners.

It was very much needed after all the negativity surrounding them lately. Hopefully they will be a nice confidence booster for them.

Rub it in why don't you!

Kidding...
I guess a draw at St. Andrews, where we never get anything from, in the snow, against an inform Birmingham team was a decent result... just pleased Nolan's out for the Saints game next week

That's good enough for me.

They've been so bad recently.

Yes, we may have bought De Gea young enough to improve his skill set in regard to crosses, so as far as i am concerned Lindegaard should be first choice for th remainder of the season. The latter is also better at communicating his wishes to the defence which is important.

.

I agree about Lindegaard and De Gea's save yesterday was a start but doesn't make up for the points he contributed to us losing. I do want to give him a chance though.

It is great knowing there is another united fan. Being a United fan can be isolating on the internet lol.

For the first time In a long time i was incredibly proud of the players after the result at Chelsea. They shown fight in them something I haven't seen all season. It reminded me why I am a United fan although living close to Old Trafford doesn't hurt either.

I hope they win their next match.

Got to admit, he hasn't done that much for us, we played much better with 10 men last Saturday..

Man that was cold- just got back from the football- good game, Milwall are a really tough side to beat- I thought that back in August when we scraped a 1-0 win over them. Will need to see certain incidents again but it was good to have Chaplow back- now hopefully we can start doing well again!

Jenny's Dimple · 02-08-2012, 04:15 AM

Chelsea are playing Everton next.

If we don't win, AVB will be gone by the end of the season.

DFB Cup tonight for both my fav clubs, Bayern will be heading to Stuttgart for a leagu face off, whereas Fürth is taking on another Bundesliga team, Hoffenheim. I think it's about time for my Bayern boys to redeem themselves and show some decent performance!
Looks like Saquiri (FC Basel) is about to sign a contract till 2016 which is phenomenal and brings me back to the Robben question. Sure as hell one great player if - and that's an objecting if he is healthy and stays that way for more than 3 games in a row. He's an ass and he's mighty arrogant and apart from his footie skills I don't see any reason to extend his contract in Munich but TPTB will do so, I guess. Just my holy two cents, 's all.

Jenny's Dimple · 02-08-2012, 09:31 AM

Ooooh, German football, ich liebe es.

Viel Glück!

Thank you, Jenny. I'm on my way to Stuttgart right now. In this freezing cold and my father looked at me and asked me if I was insane. I simply shrugged and replied that my body was burning so RED at the moment that would keep me freaking warm. I mean that and Glühwein. Haha.

Achso.

Naja, dann wünsch ich dir viel Spass.
