United Team to play Hull:

                 Kuszack

Rafael   Neville   Brown   De Laet

Nani  Gibson  Fletcher   Welbeck

             Martin  Macheda


Delighted to see Martin get a start.  De Laet is one of the worst United reserve players I've ever seen, never mind firts teamers.  Hopefully he proves me wrong.

No Rio? I thought he had to prove his fitness for Rome today?

[118cmal]

Rio not even on the bench.  Still think he'll start in Rome.

C. Evans, Drinkwater and James on the bench.  Would love to see James getting a few minutes.  Out of the current group of youngsters (Welbeck and Macheda inc) I think He and the twins have the best chance of a long United career.

Subs Not Used: Amos, Corry Evans, Drinkwater, James.

Unreal price.

Ronaldo interview by top Sky sports journalist 

[full back]

I think he made the correct career choice

[its me again]

watched the game on sunday past what is gonna become of Nani at the end of the season??

i think he has loads of potenial but cant seem to get going Ronaldo was a slow starter too only real killer performance that stands out in his first season was against Millwall in FA cup final hardly world class opposition

does anybody think he has anything about him or is he just a pretender?

[magpie seanie]

Don't think Nani has it for United. Could be like Forlan and might do really well back in Portugal or Spain but not good enough for United in my book. Ronaldo's early seasons were light years ahead of Nani's.

I disagree, it took ronaldo a year or 2 to get properly settled in, he wasnt that far ahead on Nani in his early years.
To be fair to Nani, he hasnt really got many full games this season, he done well at Hull on sunday i thought.
I wouldnt be surprised to see him go in the summer, although id like to see him given more of a chance..giggs and scholes arn't going to last another 10 years so we'll need backup from somewher.

Dont think Nani is up to the standard
He is ok as a squad player & to play in the Carling Cup but that is as far as it goes

Up to this year i regarded Park Ji Sung as not very good to say the least, ok for the odd substitute appearance, carling cup etc etc, but this year with a regular run in the team and an improvement of the final ball he has become a big part of the team. I would put Nani in the same boat.

To be honest, I doubt you could come across two more different players. Nani may be marginally more talented and skilful than Ji Sung but in every other facet of the game, Park is miles ahead.

After this season yes park is way ahead, but last season i would have had them level with Nani slightly edging it.
