Illimitable: A Gk that commands his area. Good at Set pieces (PK included). Who covered his ass at Fulham and Ajax? |

CapitalCee: make we no talk that one. Neville is one of the weak links in that United defence. All these English players who were wack have a way of propping themselves up after retirement. People like Neville, Carragher and Rio were carried by more talented teammates In Man Utd of 1999, You will pick 7 players and not even consider Neville. Cole, Yorke, Keane, Scholes, Giggs Beckham Stam, Schmeichel were better he can only drag with Irwin, Butt, Johnsen, Solksjaer |

Illimitable: Who told you that Drogba would have replaced Terry in the shootout line up? Drogba missed his penalty in 2006 AFCON final against Egypt and Missed another one versus Zambia in 2012 Final, so what made you think he will score VDS if he had taken the penalty? 3 Likes |

Expert17: He was shit at Fulham & he was great at Ajax. Before you chart the discourse into a different territory. The question(to begin with) was if any player in the current squad would get a start in 07/08 United team. I don’t know why you are mentioning Fulham and Ajax. |

CapitalCee: Terry replaced Drogba in the shootout. It was well documented that Drogba had been pencilled down as the last taker in the first 5 takers. Terry took his place cos he wanted all the glory and slipped. Drogba took it in 11/12 in a similar circumstance and he ruined Neuer. VDS would have been sent back to Amsterdam from Moscow. 1 Like

Illimitable: So Fergie signed a shitty GK to help fix our goalkeeping problem? Back to 07/08 matter, Degea of 17/18 can't start ahead of VDS. |

raumdeuter: Neville was good but i see what you mean, In 1999 team nearly Everybody in that team were better in thier positions than Neville was in his. Irwin was clearly the better of the fullbacks. Solskjaer and butt are not first team anyway. Dayo Rio Ferdinand was a world class player forget his Englishness |

CapitalCee: Forget na Vidic be Rios helper of destiny. When he partnered a fellow useless defender like Terry, we saw their effect for England. To qualify for Euro 2008 even turn WAEC |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Illimitable: 7:11pm On Mar 23, 2021 |
Expert17: Because Fergie was deluded & wanted a more experienced GK instead of a youth. Fergie was offered Petr Cech but he refused citing he was too young to deal with the pressure. Then Cech shocked him at Chelsea - this was why Fergie didn’t hesitate when De Gea(19 years) was offered to him. Fergie said he learnt a painful lesson after missing out on Cech. |

CapitalCee:Same Scholes that was brought back in SAF last season? Like 4 years after this same 2008 that you said Scholes was already old? And they aren't even in competition for same spot. They don't play same position or role 1 Like |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 7:14pm On Mar 23, 2021 |
raumdeuter: That is the problem Terry and Ferdinard are similar they should have been paired with Campbell and King. Same way England midfield was struggling with Hagreaves, Carrick, Parker, Gerrard, Lampard, Scholes etc |

CapitalCee: I know Oshea is utility Player, but I will still send him out of the Squad. Park also is utility, though from midfield to front. Brown can play multiple positions at the back, thus there is no Reason IMO to keep Oshea in the Squad. |

raumdeuter: Terry and Rio both won champions league, they were not the reason England did mot win matches. Moreover in 2010 WC due to injury Mathew Upson patnered Terry, the only tournament they both play together they went out in the quarter finals after a goaless 120 minutes. Infact they both did not concede any goal when playing together, they got 4 clean sheets in 5 in that world cup. The only match they concede versus sweden it was Campbell that played 1 Like |

Expert17: That’s an indictment on the Glazers and SAF that enabled them. The same Scholes wouldn’t get into the starting XI of Barcelona, Madrid or Bayern in 2012. This is why we are here today. When other clubs did away with nostalgia and signed competent midfielders, Fergie saved money for the Glazers by bringing Scholes back. United could have signed Ozil, Modric, etc back then to fill the gap. It’s no wonder everything went to shit immediately SAF left. 3 Likes |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Leyqute(m): 7:21pm On Mar 23, 2021 |
CapitalCee: Exactly. This is what Dayo didn’t consider. Scholes of 2008 is different from a younger Scholes. Bruno go still get mouth small when compared with the ageing Scholes. If you place him beside a much younger Scholes he’ll be eviscerated. |

CapitalCee: Terry won the CL in the stands, Any fan in the stadium contributed the same to winning as Terry. You said the only tournament they both played together.. That is the point you cant crash out when you dont qualify. Can Ole lose the CL quarter finals this season? 1 Like |

Illimitable: Facts only. Terry was a very useless defender and Almos every Chelseas CL exit between 2003 and 2015 falls on the incompetence of Terry. I will say as much as 70% of Chelsea exits falls on Terry The only CL semi and Finals he missed was when they won, when he did Chelsea a favour by getting red carded 1 Like |

Leyqute: Paul Scholes of 2008 will still shitt on anyone, Someone already mentioned that Paul Scholes 3-4yrs later still came to be your best midfielder. That guy was a talent. If he enters your team today worst case he will be 2nd best at almost 50yrs 1 Like |
