No goals in the team

[shanks59]

Crouch 4 decent chances ... never looked like scoring, why didn't Rafa sign a striker? Or give one of the kids a go?

Come on Rafa - sort it out

[Rory Fitzgerald]

His headers were half chances to be honest.

 

His volley was on his left peg and a snap shot and he wasnt a million miles off, if we are honest, most people would back him on his right peg because his technique is very good.

 

*note, lots of references to pegs and honesty.

Almost the same defenseive record and scored more goals --- problem is we're not scoring goals when they matter ie when 1-0 up getting that second goal to go 2-0 is what kills teams or holding teams at a draw and scoring in the last 5 mins (like Chelsea ) - we're not doing either of those

Do you think we can swap 2 of our goals against Derby at home for one against Chelsea?

Yup

[Rimbeux]

Yup

 

 

So what would you have done with the funds available?

[Rich Gobey]

Er, I wanted us to get a defender in January...

 

The one striker available and worth the money was Anelka - and we still couldnt have afforded him.

That's funny because I swear I must've seen them actually challenging for the title, with us languishing in 5th place and 16 points adrift.

And we've also lost less games than UTD

Aye its mad isnt it

[Gilps]

Yup

 

You were happy to go through until May with Carragher and Hyypia as our only fit and available centre backs?

[R A Softlad]

Yes but most of our goals have come from two players, this would never happen at United or Arsenal.

Some article i read a few weeks back said that 58.7% of the goals the mancs have scored this season have come from Ronaldo and Tevez... compared to 48.6% for Gerrard and Torres.

Of course. Sami, for me has been our best defender this season. Anyway, if push came to shove Riise, Arbeloa, Hobbs ...
