Nihilist: That Madrid team full of aging stars and Pavon,Gravesen, Carlos Diogo et al was average. Inter was must win but was group stage. Henry was the better player but Henry's fecal performances against Gala and Liverpool (single-handedly losing Arsenal the title on both occasions) would stand the test of time. It is fair to compare both players. Henry also underachieved for France IMO especially when asked to lead the team |

afrodoc2: The game vs inter that we are shouting there were several must win games in that group for arsenal I think ashley cole scored a late winner vs dynamo Kiev too in a must win game in that group. and scoring vs an ageing Madrid? How many times have Drogba delivered vs Barcelona who were even more fearsome than that ageing Madrid 1 Like |

elampiro: You should know that people who watched football in the late 90 and early 2000 would know more about Henry and wouldn't rely on mythical stories of Henry's football powers Henry tagged along with success for club and country minus in league games |

SIRcumalot:My brother na true u talk. And to even think that he was issuing a "come n get me" call to united all summer. A goalkeeper who was removed by his coach cos he doesn't trust his penalty skills shouldn't be a person of interest for united. Hugo Lloris is a viable option should DDG decide to take the bus to Madrid. |

afrodoc2: yeah!!! 35-million Depay was more useless today than he was in the last match for Netherlands. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SailorXY: 7:14pm On Sep 06, 2015 |
parrotibaba:LvG wouldn't buy Cillisen, come & get me plea or not. He knows he's not up to scratch just like the whole hullabaloo about Ron Vlaar. The Nederland team was terribly average & LvG knew what he had to do for them to amount to anything. Why manage when he can hit the malls & source better quality with enough coin to slice Jupitar's c0ck? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 7:17pm On Sep 06, 2015 |
Arjen Robben was the major power behind Netherlands success. Plus a younger Van Persie, Sneidjer, Kuyt. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Pataki: 7:17pm On Sep 06, 2015 |
When I came here some days ago to state that Depay is a mediocre player, one silly scumtwat was telling me that he is young and new to the Premier league, hope you all have seen the nonsense he played today for the Netherlands? ![]() As for that Blind guy, long may his useless defending continue into the Premier League. ![]() 3 Likes |

raumdeuter:drogba scored in the three against barcelona 1 0 twice and in a draw in camp nou, he scored against arsenal 15 times, he scored against arsenal featuring henry, civ never qualified for the mundial until the emperor d drogba came calling, he has more goals for his country compared to henry, he was a nightmare to defenders worldwide, he scored a hat trick at the age of 38, he is a beast, a super tank. 1 Like |

SIRcumalot:Blind was at fault for the second goal n playing in the midfield for the first time in a long time, he was decent, linked up well with Memphis. Memphis on the other hand had a decent performance today ,he was the brightest in that their attack particularly in the first half but kind of faded in the second. Netherlands as a whole played very well but their attack n defense na zero. 1 Like |

some people were angry rvp was sold that he is better than wr10, even chad will beat holland, rvp is finished, depay and blind have lost three times in a row |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Pataki: 7:31pm On Sep 06, 2015 |
parrotibaba: Netherlands played very well? You must have watched that match with an ''atupa'' tv. You need to see how Dutch people dey vex right now. The only person with a relatively good game today was van Persie. Every other person especially Depay and that Blind guy were absolutely rubbish. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SailorXY: 7:34pm On Sep 06, 2015 |
Pataki:Ok. I look forward to his hattrick on your next EPL game! |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by parrotibaba(m): 7:35pm On Sep 06, 2015 |
Pataki:I believe I added that their attack and defense were crappy. They controlled the game. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by tess1(m): 7:38pm On Sep 06, 2015 |
elampiro: The way i understand the system they are playing is that there is no particular lead striker when they play with front two. The two front men in 442 diamond formation have equal opportunity and they work for each other. They also play 433 formation where Rooney is the main striker in the front three. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Pataki: 7:42pm On Sep 06, 2015 |
SailorXY: He has done it before. That is something he does when he wants to. ![]() Did you see how your Depay played today? Now I can understand why he has not stepped up so far in the EPL. Almost every team in the Eredivisie is not different from Brugge. |

How many guys can still remember that Nick Powell is still a united player? long term injury na bastard. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by sinizia: 7:46pm On Sep 06, 2015 |
While i wouldn't use the phrase "far, far better" to show Henry is better than DD, i'll pick Henry over DD any day anytime!! The decision would be easy for me. DD is a beast, a fùcking legend. The man for the big occasion. The nigga had affinity for slaying the big boys. He didn't score a lot of goals like Cr7 and Messi are doing, but It was like another entity emerges from him whenever he sniffs big clubs around... But Igwe was better. Henry was like the complete striker. DD bests him only in strength, nodding and turning up for final occasion. Henry made scoring look beautiful like Barca's Tiki-taka. Nigga could score any type of goal from impossible angles. I think only Le Tisser has more beautiful goals than him in EPL with his long rangers. Henry got it all.. Speed.... Check Accuracy.... Check Precision.... Check Freekick.... Check Air of arrogance.... Check Goals.... Checcccccccccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkk!! When it comes to goals, Henry could score anyhow you want it. From the 8-yard box, to outside the box - 20 yards, 30-yards, freekicks. He perfected scoring by cutting in from the flank before unleashing a tornado inside the net. Just name it!! And he while he didn't score much in finals, he was never wanting in big games. Man Utd, Liverfool, Inter, Brazil, Juve, or is it Madrid? I can still remember the way he took the Madrid on a running spree during that memorable night at Bernabeau. Apart from the goal against ManU that Coog described, one of his best freekick goals he scored was against Man Utd. I can't remember if it's in FA Cup or EPL, but in that match, Silverstre first scored for Man Utd before Henry equalized with a freekick that would make Juninho proud from 30-yards!! I mean, the precision, accuracy, intelligence and the movement with which the ball evaded our players, swerved in the air before dipping into our net, was out of this world!! Goddamnit!! Henry ruled EPL!! Even as a rival fan, i adored Assnal. I use to support Assnal against other teams back then because of Henry and Kanu mostly, even till now i still have a soft spot for them all thanks to Henry's exploit. |

hensben: international games? do you type with your common sense? you want to compare the tough european countries thierry henry must play against to qualify for big tournaments to togo, equatorial guinea, comoros island, zimbabwe & namibia that drogba get avalanche of goals against. drogba & henry played the same amount of league games in the EPL and henry scored 70 league goals more. that's the end of the argument. henry would score 200 goals for CIV if he was from abidjan. |
