Fergies tactics v Chelsea

yes they are,their record over last few years is up in the top 4,blip at the moment but will be back!!

which double over arsenal

Stick to racing mate you havent a clue.

drew with the arse 0-0 at OT to win ANOTHER title..

beat them in the champs league as well.

chelsea are worse in league for surrounding the ref lampard drogba and gay boy terry love it

Park the bus and let rooney score the winner and do the baby cradling thing-would'nt that be great.

Does Ferguson even pick the team nowadays? He looks and talks like he is senile. Surely someone else picks the team.

this is surely the first time in ages that this fixture can be looked at and the conclusion drawn that on the field, on curent form, one team is superior in all three departments.

i can't see anything but a chelsea win.

and past experience tells me that's when i need to start worrying.

No i pick it.

Team for sunday.

:) @ mex

cantona-no space for peter davenport?

who do you hate the most? le saux or wise?

kerry dixon.

Sorry mely hes on the bench sunday,birtles is due a goal.

Fergie did this Fergie said that, Fergie has a red nose.

Fergie is the greatest manager

Nice of the FA to delay Fergies touchline ban till after Sunday. A wasted game . Who is the ref ? Is it a Fergie approved one ?.

Stop humiliating yourself with each post. Small time poster from a small time club.

Good evening shrimp.

:-)

Ferguson should try to get Tom Henning

Martin Atkinson to referee Chelsea v Manchester United clash
Martin Atkinson, subject of past criticisms from Sir Alex Ferguson, will referee Manchester Uniteds Premier League trip to Chelsea on Sunday.

In charge: Martin Atkinson will referee the Chelsea v Manchester United match on Sunday Photo: GETTY IMAGES Ferguson has admitted a charge of improper conduct for his comments on referee Alan Wileys fitness recently and could face a fine or a touchline ban from the Football Association.

In March 2008, the manager was given a severe warning by the FA after criticising Atkinson and the Premier League head of referees, Keith Hackett, after United lost 1-0 to Portsmouth.

LOL . Google is a wonderful thing mick.

Like I said small time and proving it with each post.

:-)

You would know coming from where you do ;) .

it seems to me that chelsea fans, and the vast majority of neutrals think chelsea will win .

wheras the vast majority of utd fans hope they'll win :)

his tactics will be to blame everyone else but himself and his team.

as usual

It is another thing in Chelsea,s favour,his hold on refs has gone,he is on the retreat . We can now have an even playing field. As Jose said "when the ball is 2 yards over the line and a goal is not given ,you should never again criticise officials" Funny he seemed happy with that decision ;) .

mex you clown most utd fans know that even mis firing and missing players you write utd off at your peril ;-)

Goal line issues. Pleasing.

:-)

For me it isn't even a point for debate

Historically the better team - United (Chelsea have a LONG way to go to even begin to claim this)

Better at this very moment in time - Chelsea

A lot can change over a season though.

as i said roy.

hoping.

maybe wishing.

nice to see the blind faith.

Based on years of evidence...yes blind faith. See you in may ;-)

how are previous results that were [chelsea much better at the bridge than man u of late anyway] achieved with a better team be considered evidence, apart from people with a very loose grasp of logic?

Short sighted fool. carry on mexicano you bitter little man. I will remember you when the prizes are handed out.

If Utd beat Chelsea on Sunday i will not post on here again ;) .
See you mon .

:) thread has gone haywire?

Glad to see the lesser spotted Jockey chipping in.

Rofl back to the Europa League you mug.

:-)

as i said roy

nothing but blind faith.

is that what you and your mates are reduced to now?

melymoss 06 Nov 20:47


thread has gone haywire?

=======================================

only since the forum imbicile appeared.

he seems to have that effect on whatever thread he soils.

christ you mugs repeat the same nonsense round about the same time every season. its standard.

As i said see you when the prizes are being handed out.

manu have beat Chelsea before under similiar circumstances when the all conquering Mourinho was in charge. 1-0 i think at OT, fletcher. but tomorrow is different in the sense that the MU defence is weak without Rio & Vidic and MUs midfield is so poor atm. Nani is the worst MU winger I've seen for 15 years. Fergie will get a reaction but he can't change the fact that the Chelsea midfield will dominate play.

1-0 or 2-0.

sunday even

the imbicile spouts about repeating the same nonsense

how many times has he talked about may and prizes on this thread alonne.

lol

Nani a better player than Ashley Grimes imho :^0 :^0 . Just ;) .

mexicano 06 Nov 20:49


only since the forum imbicile appeared.

he seems to have that effect on whatever thread he soils.

Since the 2nd post in the thread then :^0

MUG.....fail.

now that you've acknowledged that you know it's you who's the forum imbicile, trot along like a nice fellow and leave us th have a decent discussion with the reasonable man u fans.

where do you sit hunter? i sit in the matthew harding upper

upper east me .

sorry i exposed you for being clueless mex after you claimed fletcher wasnt a match winner :^0

seems to have upset you a bit. I reckon you prob like to think you know a bit about the game. lol

east stand east stand give us a song!

wazza you have asked me that 100 times me olde mate shed upper .

lol sorry m8, my memory is shocking lol, close enough to give the mancs some stick sunday

I aim to be bouncing ,come 10 to 6 ;) .

once again roy you show what a berk you are. i never said that at all.what i actually said [and i know you'll troll through the freds being the sad berk that you are] is that he [along with barry] are not the sort of players that tend do things that change the course of the game] which to anybody who knows anything about the game [unfortunatly that excludes you mate] knaw are differn't things.

now there's no point in you toddling off ,cos once again your appearance has meant that most of the people who had something to say, and maybe warrented a debate have feked off.

bouncy bouncy bouncy bouncy la la la, getting up there early to watch hull v stoke?

playing golf 7.45 wazza.

train to parsons green, get there about 2 o'clock.

mex you crack me up, big time. Well done. that is not easy.

unfortunatly i can't reciprocate roy.

i just find you're a pest.

your man crush is flattering. :x

See you in may friend.

as i said.

blind faith.

and maybe a bit of hope thrown in.

I see mex is back to doing what he does best - accusing anyone who dares say that SAF is not the root of all evil as backing him without consideration.

He forgets that he actually fails to make a credible point and is in fact blindly criticising us all with no logic himself.

What a joke :)

Fergie always parks the bus in the big games, knows if he tries to get the team play decent football they'll lose

oh! ferk me

the other pest pokes his nose in,

vds
neville
brown
evans
evra

valencia
anderson
carrick
fletcher

giggs
rooney


sorry to any chelsea or liverpool fans on this thread but i wont be ** scared of going to stamford bridge with that side.. we may lose, draw or win but its not blind faith, we got beaten by a poor liverpool side because we were overrun in midfield (carrick and scholes together not mobile enough in my opinion) ... valenica is gettin better and giggs will do the job as per...

stop worrying about united... fergie always gets it right in the end..

we are manchester united and dont fear anyone

4-5-1 then ;) .

Brown and Evans v the Drog :^0 :^0 .

Fatty Neville is suspended :^0 :^0 . That midfield looks shallow compared to Chelsea.

seething still

headhunters=fat gob**es that fight in packs because there scared,big chav babies

A H Hunter - So back the Yellow Cards in this Game is what your saying so :)

I know its only the Charity Shield but there certainly wasnt much in the game at Wembley. Seem to recall Chelsea resorting to dirty tactics (elbowing evra) in order to score a goal as well. And that was just a friendly. God knows what theyll do on Sunday to win. I dont think United will mind coming into the game as underdogs, and Ive got a feeling Rooney will be on a high after just becoming a dad. Can see a 1-1. This is what I think Fergie will opt for...

VDS

OShea
Vidic
Evans
Evra

Valencia
Carrick
Fletcher
Anderson
Giggs

Rooney

the drog wont like it when wes goes right down the back of his ankles imo..

i like that everyone is writing off united :) especially the scousers as the only thing they can win this season of any note is the ABU title :)

citing the charity shield is hardly the right game to draw comparisons with, as the utd team is somewhat weaker at the mo'. and hoping that his new status as a daddie will inspire utd to overcome the odds :)..well.

as i said earlier.

blind faith..mixed up with a bit of hope.

but i reckon we'll see a bit o' charity from the makeshift utd back four.

off to gawf now.

have a nice day :)

team v Chelsea in the charity shield...

B Foster 4 - J OShea 6 R Ferdinand 7 J Evans 7 P Evra 7 - Park Ji Sung 6 D Fletcher 7 M Carrick 6 Nani 7 - D Berbatov 5 W Rooney 7.

Id say the possible team on Sunday will be stronger than this one. Its certaintly no weaker

I think Rooney off and 2-0 Chelsea could be the bet ;) .
SFL and Anelka to score and take advantage of Utd 's soft centre .
Rooney will not get a kick and will lose it. having 5 in midfield will not be safety in numbers for Utd.

easy win for chelsea.

Easy win United :)

There is going to be a Major Seethfest tomorrow when United go top of the Table.

big-game-player 07 Nov 00:17


we are manchester united and dont fear anyone

:^0

Life turned out well for you then.

SAF bound to use the tried and tested tactic of 78 minutes injury time imo.

Was going to conduct a straw poll on this thread, but it seems like all the straws have been clutched

I like the Brown/Rapist (allegedly) match winning centre back combo straw the best :)

shrood mug 07 Nov 10:11

I like the Brown/Rapist (allegedly) match winning centre back combo straw the best :)

Oh isn't shrood mug a naughty boy accusing someone of being a rapist on the internet.

I bet he does wash behind his ears either.

My new hero.

Accusing?

He was cleared after initially being arrested by police on alleged rape charges. I was merely stating a fact sunshine.

What are your thoughts on Berbatov still treating his father like a hero despite the fact he IS a rapist?


Though I must say I find the irony in you of all people accusing someone of being a childish internet warrior thoroughly delicious :)

Man U win sunday to dent our title rivals followed by a customary demolition job on monday to close the gap.

5 in midfield,foul,foul,foul,defend ,defend ,defend .Fletcher kicking, Vidic wrestling, Rooney swearing, spitting . 2-0 Chelsea.

Hope not. 0-2 would do me.

Lot's of talk of a weakened defence.

I would imagine it will be more or less the same back 5 as the one that started the 3-0 at OT. Which Ferdinand also missed through injury. Neville started that game so maybe OShea will take that spot.

That result seems to have been ignored as an abberation.

Chelsea in great form v Blackburn and Bolton in recent weeks, the losses at Villa and Wigan also deemed to be abberations I suppose.

I think the odds are fair and make Chelsea favourites but to listen to some on here you'd think they were playing a team they'd actually managed to beat in the last 3 or 4 matches.

BTW

Aren't Chelseas 1st choice full backs missing also?

bit rich of chelsea fan to talk about bullying and loaded midfield tactics

The 3-0 hammering of chelsea and the double over arsenal last season did not happen.

BETFAIR MYTH.

1.01 Landed,never agree with Wenger but all Fletcher does is run around fouling and arguing with the ref,champagne moment Joey Cole kicked Fletcher back and Fletcher took umbrage and give him a slap . It couldnt be a spectacle with the way Utd play, 3 points on the way to bringing it back home though. 1 Hour of the game wasted with Deco on the pitch, has the work rate of a Koala and left us out numbered in midfield . JT get in thereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee son :^0 :^0 :^0 .
Valencia did the Rooney job on Ashley Cole . Ref did well despite the usual Utd pressure put on him. The FA can ban Fergie now,WTF are they waiting for ? .

Good win today, Hunter. Suppose I'd be laughing my balls off if my team had got away with that as well.

:^0

you know what they say.

the winners can laugh, the losers can make their own arrangements. :)

I thought Utd were attack,attack,attack,not in West London apparently , its the same every year 10 behind the ball 1 up front foul and argue ,worse then the scousers .

No wonder they have not won there in your EIGHT seasons now .

chelsea did most of the defending , strange thread

big game for chelsea today - utd know its later on when it matters,let pool/chel have there day - look and learn and prepare for march/april

and it wasn't a big game for man u?

if that really is the best you can do you ought to turn it in.

This

They are the only team that Liverpool can beat,that is how bad they are without wink ;) .

Brown and Evans v the Drog :^0 :^0 .


what did the big mong do all game other than not get given offside for the goal...
