Oh dear.

Does than mean United automatically get in to europe and Liverpool have to go through the hassle of hoping to qualify?

Yup

Just the way it should be

sherer · 07-05-2006, 17:11

looks like Ruud has played his last game for us... he drove home and never made the bench.. another player Fergie has driven out of the club

might go to AC or PSV for onlu 8 even though he is worth about 15 m

A 30 year old worth ÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…Â¡ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£15m? Not sure about that. If he does go (and let's face it, there's more chance of Henri staying at @rse than RVN at United) then we'd better replace him - I'm still not convinced about Saha and Rooney needs quality cover.

i don't agree with saying another player fergie drove out? . . its so easy to blame fergie rather than the player. the team put out without RVN thump 4-0 and looked to play with smiles on faces which is something you wouldn't have seen on ruud even if he had of started. the younger players look to be key to our future so is it not more sensible to think fergie did the right thing and that ruud has become too big for his boots mean as utd man i can even say that ruud has been a legend for us in past but this season he has just lacked something his play has been lazy at times ive been over to alot of games this year and even chatting with mates in stand they say same that maybe the team has just out grown ruud we play a different game now and saha fits better into that style of play. .

i have no doubt fergie will sign another striker in summer but first and foremost i see 1 or two midfiedlers coming in first.

Is it true that next year Tottenham will be sponsored by "pampers".

Agreed, although Nistelrooy's record is good, 150 goals in 200 appearances, his attitude especially of late sucks, my guess is he is more concerned about about his position in the dutch team with the impending world cup coming up in about 30 days time, he only has himself to blame if he is omitted imo.

The United team seem to gel better when he is not playing as I have mentioned on numerous occasions on here, I am surprised it has taken Fergie so long to notice it.

akane1984 · 08-05-2006, 08:16

i just expect in coming weeks alot of talk of midfielders and possible striker coming in. if we don't spend this summer then it will be another chelsea title.

Russ · 08-05-2006, 08:48

I can't remember who they were but there was talk recently of SAF being very interested in 2 midfielders, and when RVN leaves we HAVE to replace him - failure to do this will hand Chelsea another title.

akane1984 · 08-05-2006, 09:33

well lets start talk then. . . what midfielders/strikers would you like to see United chase in summer.

Ruud Set To Be Sold After 'Undermining Team Spirit'

Sir Alex Ferguson has sensationally accused Ruud van Nistelrooy of trying to undermine team spirit at Manchester United.

"There have been a couple of incidents in training this week which have concerned me about team spirit,'' revealed Ferguson.

"This was such an important game for us, I just wanted everyone together so I felt Ruud should be left out of the team.

"Sometimes in management, you have to make tough decisions like that. It was for the benefit of Manchester United

"I do not need to say anything else about it at the moment. I will discuss it with the directors tomorrow and Tuesday.''
