Just Nath I think.
Do you think Sturridge or Lukaku are decent replacements, that'll grow into his role? He's just come out and said what a cunt avb was to him this morning.
Sturridge is an odd situation.... He's a striker, that wants to play as a striker, but is playing on the right wing. AVB played him as we didn't have other options, but RDM hasn't played him as Sturridge is just way too egotistical and selfish. He doesn't often look for a pass, he'll over complicate things, and either lose the ball or shoot. He has a lot of confidence in himself, that's why he tries to do too much, when sometimes the simple pass is the better option. And that's one of the main problems as well, when you're on the bench you want to come on and have an impact, and his kind of impact is trying to shoot and score, rather than find a pass. It will be interesting to see what happens.
Lukaku..... Obviously still very young, but I'm amazed he didn't get a bit more playing time. 100 Per cent he can be a Drogba like player, because he's one hell of a unit for a 19 year old! He's strong and powerful, very quick, and obviously scores goals. When he came to the club, and by all accounts, they've trained him a lot on his technique, told him to stop going mad for it in the gym, and to try and sort out his frame to be a footballer, rather than a body builder. He has ability, but it remains to be seen how good he can be. As I say he's 18, and Drogba didn't come to England until he was 26. Hopefully Lukaku has learned a lot from Didier, but it will be a white before we see Lukaku I feel. Maybe next season he will go on loan.

Did you see the build up to the final (think on Sky Sports) where the Chelsea players were picking names out the hat and then had to say what they liked/disliked about them? Lampart got Di Mateo and said he liked him 'cause he picks me, not like the other fella'
Nah, was still in the pub from the playoff game, only caught 10 mins of pre-match build up, said something similar then though too

Didn't know they said that to Lukaku The guy is an absolute tank, and he's what 19? He's big and strong, unlike Sturridge, do you think they'd would work well together? Lukaku fighting to win all balls, and sturridge with the pace. Have they played together before in the epl?

Yeah apparently, they needed to sort out his training and his diet, perhaps to make him more lean so he's quicker over 5 yards? Something like that, anyway.
They could work well together for sure, but I don't know how happy Sturridge is by being played on the wing all the time. It will be interesting to see what happens next season with them. I'd imagine it will also depend on who comes in, and who leaves. Perhaps missing out on the Euro's Sturridge will re-evaluate things with regards to the way he plays.
They certainly didn't play together often that's for sure.

I'll be the first to say Berbatov has never looked a United player and his work ethic could be questioned, but you have to give him credit for this:
“I would never join Man City, I am a loyal person after all. I had the opportunity to sign for City in the past but I chose United.”

I can't understand why fergie hasn't used him more this season, he was our top goal scorer last season and he hardly played full games this season, hernandez hasn't been very good this season either

Blimey, I'll just assume you know about drugs and Mexico they go rather hand in hand over there.

Look at how those drug cartels murder 40 odd people and then hang them from bridges!

Seems United ahve taken pole position with Hazard, reports saying city are out as they refuse to pay the 200k a week wages(notsure if I believe that). Also Large rumours of city swapping Tevez for Thiago silva and kolaraov on loan.

Reports? By who The guy is stringing everyone along. If he ended up at United, which I doubt he will, he will probably want to go to Real Madrid or Barcelona in 3 or 4 seasons. Seems that type.

Is Tevez definately going? Thought he'd stay now he's getting started and champions league football next season!
Hazard is a sick player, wherever he goes he'll make an impact. I thought Chelski were in the forefront for him James...? I'd say its between City, United & Chelsea

If Wenger had got his finger out and really tried we could have had him last summer. But of course he didn't.
Now the big spenders are in for him we've no chance.
