Scholes is on another level himself, and not many are and close to joining him on the same step.

Hargreaves ain't a Keano successor. Hard tackler, dominating persona is just part of it. Passing ability is more important. Don't have to be great like Scholes, but have to at least be useful or comfortable enough there. Hargreaves haven't showed enough there to suggest we can rely on him there aside from providing defensive cover and and an endless amount of hard work in that position. He looked really good out wide though..

Rio played 45 mins for the reserve. Ando played the full 90mins. Score was 2-1 in our favour. Macheda got the winner.

huhuhu
we miss Van der Vaart
cheap and superb player ...

Anyone knows bout this guy? We were linked to him every year yet we haven't made a single move. If he's that good, why other teams aren't interested?

Macheda keep banging in the goals in reserve, I just wonder if SAF willing to start him more often in the league fixture and maybe then, Macheda could stamp his presence in the starting lineup. With Chicharito and Owen, he currently the fifth choice striker in the order and that is quite sad for a player his class.

and knee made from glass injury prone player. We had one in the form of OH, didn't need another one.
With so many attacking options in our team, I doubt SAF going to sign any established players and expensive one. Youth maybe, but not those senior player that need games under their belt or they start whining.

And whats up with Carrick, didn't play also kena hamtam??

perhaps there's a gap between bpl & reserve league maybe? he's still younger so need not to rush him... he could feature once a while in league, will definitely come in handy in league cup/fa cup matches. 

If he keep impressing in the reserves and whenever he gets a chance for the first team, SAF will keep on giving chances to him. But for now, 10-15 games is what we're looking at unless he impresses enough to get more. He's only 19, and his game still not fully develop, but he's working on those link up stuff and he's been quite good at them. He's probably 2-3 years away from regularly contesting for a place. No need to rush. By that time, a path or two would open up with Berba and Owen getting on in age.

At least Ronaldo has his name in his full name.

Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aviero

but..

Nani?

Where the heck did Nani come from?

Luis Carlos Almedia Da Cunha

HOW?!

Hargreaves was raised in Canada and trained in Germany.

Homegrown only applies to players who joined the club before 18 years old and trained there for more than 3 years within the country (whether in England or Wales). Or something like that.

Drinkwater, Daniel Noel... hahaha his name always make me chuckle
But the best name still belong to Argelico f***s... Link edited by alien2003 to avoid mis-understanding

edit: Damn even his name can't come out properly in lowyat forum hahaha what a shame... sorry guys link got distorted by forum
