It's about time. That girl is a mess.

Is that a slightly bitter scouser talking? Especially with your happiness about someone's death; showing typical scouse class I must say.

Sir Alex is the greatest manager the world has ever seen (including Paisley) and he's knocked you lot off your fucking perch.

It's unfortunate when your nickname is Fergie because people automatically think of the Black Eyed Peas girl.

Hilarious. World news outlets Fromm BBC to al jazeera giving top billing to a black eyed pea would be something to behold. All good. I know you're only joking. You don't seem as insular as you're making out.

Hardy har har.

I retired my car just a couple of days ago. The treads on 3 of 'em were dangerously worn down.
I need to start rotating 'em more often.
Now when it rains, my car drives like a dream.

I can see why you'd be in denial.......hoping for someone better.

Honestly? My gut feeling always told me that he was the right one for the job, especially considering my personal values about what makes my club so special and stand out from the other top clubs.

He ticks many boxes, even though I must admit that some of them are merely school-boy's fantasies and don't really matter in the long run for most people.

- He is British and not afraid to play British players. It was a huge achievment to show the world that the CL can be one with 6 British players on the pitch in the final in Moscow. This British core is part of our pedigree and I want to keep it, as hardly any other top team (apart from you lot maybe, lately) can play attractive football with so many spitfire pilots on the pitch.

- He values loyalty and discipline. Sure, times have changed and nobody will receive the patience SAF did in his early (not so successfull) years at United. But Moyes will stick around as long as possible and not fuck off after he was one the CL once or twice with us (unlike a certain Jose, who would only come to United to add us to his impressive CV).

- He doesn't throw silly money at silly players. Jose's inevitable success would come with a huge cost, not only financially, but he usually leaves teams in a terrible state (age-wise and team-spirit wise). I like greedy managers, I love bargain transfers, and, most of all, I love investing in your own youth and bringing local talent through the ranks. Mourinho has no fucking idea about any of those things.


So, no Mourinho for me. Klopp is a fantastic coach and very likable guy, and he turned Dortmund to a pretty much perfect club (if they can establish themselves so much they will be able to keep their future star players). But, a German at United? Giving his press conference talks with a German accent? Would be too weird!

Pep I don't want, because he has no idea how things for in England and simply doesn't fit our style. And, who else is there?

Ah, with "you lot" I was actually talking about Spurs! They have a wonderful British core and still play beautiful football.
I forgot you were a Gooner... Your avatar always distracts me that way

But Arsenal have stepped up from the misery of often not playing a single British player a couple of years ago.

I dunno, it might sound silly, but as a supporter of a British club I also enjoy watching the British brand of football and I enjoy British players outplaying all the fancy foreigners, especially because we're usually the underdogs (and quite rightly so). Don't get me wrong, I love all my RVPs ( ), Vidics, Evras and Rafaels, but that little ginger-haired ninja? He shits all over Xavi, in my opinion.

the problem of Arsenal is called Arsène Wenger

You make some great points but PLEASE for the love oh YHWH, Allah, Ganesh, Horus, Baal and Tom Cruise don't EVER confuse me for a dodgy lasagna eating, ball balancing poultry badged, own neighborhood rioting, spud again.

So sorry! When it comes to talking football I automatically turn all stereotype-ish; so when I see a flag resembling Israel's I immediately think of Spurs
