When you get to mine and alvas age you have to be selective about stuff like this.

For every bit of information that goes into an old brain something falls out, I don't want to get good at Football Manager but forget where I live!!

That happens after a trip to the pub anyway!

Yeah, but that trip to the pub will be forgotten anyway, no matter what happened.

Kids, eh?

I agree with reds, too much like work

Ive been saying it since CM4, its been going in the total opposite direction to what made CM1, 2 and 3 such addictive games, simple QUICK interface, simple tactical options (rather than telling every player how to wipe their arse as in CM4+).

What theyve actually done is made it so deep and customisable for the player, that you can win basically every game if you do all the right things every match (as fun as MM 200 workers in civ3), which is the total opposite of what they intended in the first place with all these options, to make it more realistic.

No, stop The Threadjack!

Back on topic - Denis Bergkamp!. What a goal.

Seems that Joe's boys have less pulling power than Sheff Wed vs Leeds .

not only should have persie been sent off (you cant stick your leg all the way up in the face of another player, even if unintentional), but so should toure. his foul on lustrinelli was not only intentional, it was also of last resort. if he doesnt foul, its 1v1 lustrinelli against whatever hack arsenal has in goal. that is an automatic red card.

van persie went for the ball!

Rooney reminds me to much of Shearer with the constant whining and bad manners.

You must be thinking of Duncan Shearer, the Scottish journeyman pro, because Alan Shearer, love him to bits, isn't even interesting enough to display bad manners on the pitch. You must have been living in a nuclear bunker several miles underground for the last few years to have missed how Man Utd have become the premier team of whingers, surrounding the referee at every opportunity to threaten him to change his decision against them, no matter how obvious and deserved the free kick was.
Or is that what the "Mad" in "Footie Mad" refers to?

[reds4ever]

ManU have always been whingers even back when they had a good side in the late 90s.

[MikeH]

They whinge nearly as much as Arsenal.

[Maquiladora]

Rooney needs a long injury to put things in perspective for him, if he does that for England he wants dropping for a while.

[MikeH]

If he wasn't our best player by miles in the one position we don't have any depth.
