Thoughts on My Teams (Virtualsports)

Crows Fc Wow i really think you could of provided a bit more detail i have a cold and a headache you could of shortned it a bit, ok where do i start...Man C need time to gel they have bought 4 players not a whole new team like Barca or Real Madrid and we all know how poorly they do on the world stage! Cole is a massive signing for liverpool takes alot of pressure of Gerrard in the centre of the park and is that bit of creative spark Liverpool need, Aquilani injured all season Gerrard and torres injuries didn't help and Rafa benitez and the offield dramas where the reason they didnt take 4th spot Roy Hodgson is one of the best Tacticallly English managers in the game. What do you mean Keepers doesnt matter of course it does he is  40 YRS old yes keepers can play till there 35 or 36 max they sold ronaldo didnt replace him...Berbatov is the most over-rated in the EPL and Man U showed no rooney no united last year. (PART1)

Scholes and Giggs dont get me wrong in the 90's early 2000 where great players and will be remembered as tru greats but age is brutal in football if giggs had one outstanding attribute it was his Speed, he is lost that with age and scholes still the best passer in the game but doesn't have the stamina to run box to box, Man U have always had money or produced talent but granted there under 25's might be good and good prospects but valencia anderson hernandez and nani will not win utd silverware this year Chelsea might have players that are over 25-30 which brings the average age up i would prefer to have kalou malouda anelka and cole than players just mentioned.LOL because history said than man u win the title back every 2nd year doesnt mean they will, Man U wont spend as long as the Glaziers are still there and Fergie has lost the plot he can be stubborn and refusing to buy in this day and age will cost united.

Rob you do make some valid points, and maybe my arguing is a little biased as i am a united fan whereas you are coming from a neutral perspective since you support celtic and tottenham. But i honestly believe that the squad united has at the moment is stronger than the others in the league and will show it this season.

What I meant when I said keepers don't matter is when you look at squad age the keepers shouldn't be taken in to account because they can play for much longer. I'm sure this will be van der sars last season, but at the moment he still has the agility and shot stopping ability that is better than most.

In regards to the city issue it is true that they have only bought 4 players, but mancini says milner and balotelli will arrive by thursday. last year they bought many players and finished 6th. as much as it pains me to say it i do think they will become a very strong team i just don't think it will be this year.

i guess the first hint we will get of how the season will pan out is with the community shield tonight. i'm quite excited that there is less than a week to go before it all starts!
