Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season

A good weekend for united, but, there is a long way to go yet.
Plus, I think Mourinho is losing the plot (hopefully), although I am not sure why after all the millions he has spent on players.

Quote:

"I must credit Fulham and the way they reacted. They know we can't defend so they attacked, it's that simple.
"The story is the same for us. When teams keep seeing us making mistakes they believe they can score goals.
"At the moment we are always in danger. We've conceded two goals four times in-a-row and it doesn't surprise me."
I am sure this is just a blip though, all teams go through bad patches.

I just hope the gap is wide enough in the table for the result not to matter too much when United visit Stamford Bridge on the 17th April 2007.

Also do you get honoured for achievements in just one year now because I always thought it rolled over and if you weren't quite deserving one year you might be in another or over the course of a lifetime you might earn one if for no specific achievement
I think you are forgetting Beckhams National achievments tbh, I seem to remember him running the show on quite a few occasions playing for England, (Greece the notable one), plus he was captain etc.

Anyway, I was only using Beckham as an example over or against Gerrard, who imo has achieved less.
