I LOVE MANCHESTER UNITED.

THEY HAVE MADE ME FEEL SO MUCH BETTER AFTER YESTERDAY.

Manchester City are now my least favourite team OF ALL TIME however.

Not sure why anybody would really hate City. Much scummier money teams about.
still bitter about Monday and last year. </3 United haven't done anything particularly unkind to us that would damage our title hopes recently. And as long as they continue that...

Few sources saying that Vadis Odjidja is in Norwich for his medical this morning. Also supposedly in for Juve defender Frederik Sorensen and Falkirk starlet Conor McGrandles. Considering Ryan Bennett is sidelined for a couple of months and we have already taken Falkirk's manager and best coach these sound reasonable. Don't really know anything about these players though.

Edit - Falkirk player in. Some much needed AMC cover and maybe long term Wessi replacement. Apparently some people rate him higher than that kid that went off to Lisbon from Dundee.

Well if he's really better than Gauld then that's quite the acquisition.

Rooney England captain, Colback in the England squad. While most people will be jumping off a tall building after reading those two things, I'm happy with both. It's a shame Hodgson had to ruin it all by calling Colback a 'ginger Pirlo' though.

I am completely shocked to see Man City lose 1-0 at home to Stoke and looking forward to seeing the team I support tomorrow Aston Villa.

Anyone watching the Everton vs Chelsea thats on now 2-1 at half time, Chelsea's 2nd goal was offside in my opinion

EDIT: WHAT A GAME ended 6-3, 13 mins of unbelievable football when the game went from 2-1 to 5-3

For me the nerves are coming from speculation around Gary Hooper and Nathan Redmond. Think these two will be vital to our chances this season. If Hooper does go then maybe Becchio will be given a chance, we'd be short of that poacher and Champs poachers don't come much better than Luciano. If Redmond goes I really hope we have a replacement in mind and aren't planning on leaving it to the Murphy boys.

Away from those two I think Bassong, Surman and probably Becchio will go. Would expect we'd bring in a defender or two as well, maybe on loan.

You guys have Grabban who seems to be a good signing from Bournemouth thou so its quite easy to see where your goals will come from but its always nice to have more than one 20 goal man.

Geez our next 7 fixtures
Liverpool (Away), Arsenal (Home), Chelsea (Away), Man City (Home), Everton (Away), QPR (Away), Tottenham (Home)

nothing personal but Aston Villa are gonna have to end up below Liverpool at some point m8. we'll have to see to that in a couple of weeks!

also congratulations to United for managing to breach the fortress that is Turf Moor and leave with a point. I was impressed. Burnley have spent a staggering £45m on transfers in their entire history, so it was good to see a little team like Manchester United getting a point out of those big spenders.

Need lots of options, if we were to lose Hooper and Becchio we wouldn't have a 'fox in the box' type forward. Hooper in undoubtedly our most natural, instinctive finisher. Misused by Hughton I bet he'd score a shedload this time round. Grabban, Jerome, Lafferty and Hooper looks great to me.

Not a nice run but at least you have made a good start.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid lost to Real Sociedad- a game they were winning 0-2 just 10 minutes in, ended 4-2. Their only answer to the losses of Di María and Alonso (and Ronaldo's knee injury) seems to be taking Chicharito on loan. That's going to be fun.

So United are still looking for a win after a 0-0 draw against Burnley.

The squad we have now won't be the same as the one in a months time; we are just slow to start this year. I still have faith and always will.

Transfer deadline day.... woke up to the shock of Falcao to Man United

I really hate this day thou with rumors of Arsenal wanting Benteke & Vlaar please do not happen or we are doomed. Just got our defense sorted and with Vlaar gone back to square 1 with no time to replace him and Benteke is our only decent striker. Going to be here all day now praying neither leave.

Meanwhile a wonderful quote I read on the paper today: "You know somebody did something very wrong somewhere when the European Champions need to go ask a team who can't probably beat even Big Ben Athletic for their reserve striker".
