Well.. just thought i'd follow the trend!..

Here's to Man Utd v Portsmouth on Saturday!

About time the country's biggest club was represented on here!!!!

Your all time United 11?

Mine is:-

GK - Schmeichel

Defense - Neville, G, Pallister, Bruce, Irwin

Midfield - Best, Charlton, Robson, Giggs

Strikers - Law, Cantona.

Not too far off with mine..

GK - Schmeichel - Has to be.

Defense - G. Neville, Pallister, Bruce, Irwin

Midfield - Best, Scholes, Robson, Giggs

Strikers - Cantona, Solskjaer-(I know, i know, but i just have to because of '99... )

Neither have Roy Keane in there, thats a bit shocking

I thought about it.. and no doubting he was a great player.. just maybe not as great as he thought he was when he was dishing out the insults about the other players all over the press every week..... *and breathe...

Well theres something we can agree on! A rock, no doubt, but any player who goes out with the intention of causing considerable harm (I'll give him the benifit of the doubt that he didn't mean to end Alfe Inge Haarland's career) drops hugely in terms of greatness.
Interesting that you should pick Scholes ahead of Charlton though. And after what you said about 'one trick' being the main man at OT!
All in all, I'd say Syntax's is probably closer to the 11 I would pick! (Opinion)

anyone betting on a treble?

I'll take that!
Then I think SAF will follow it up with a couple of pints of heavy, and a half bottle of white

I will still be shocked if Man U win one cup this season. Sorry.

My line up will change as time goes on.... i can see some new additions in the next few years.. hopefully..

You've both picked Pallister?

FA Cup- Arsenal
Premiership- Chelsea
Champions League- winner of Bayern Munich/Madrid

I predict they will be the cup winners.

That's your opinion.. but personally i can't see that myself.

It was tough to leave Keano out, but Robbo is my all time favourite United player & I couldn't put two gut busting midfielders in.

There's rumours of Gabrielle Heize being sold!

He was our best player in his first season.

OK, I accept that he has been injured & he is not as dynamic as the fast improving Evra, but he's still a quality player in his prime.

A team like United should not be selling players of that ilk IMO.

Surely some mistake?

Pallister was top drawer for us.

His partnership with Bruce was probably the best in the club's history.

theyll win the premiership, and maybe the fa cup, but i think the champions league is beyond them. chelsea are playing well in cl and man u lost to kopenhagen. europe has too many other class acts and man u arent up to scratch this season. the fa cup is almost impossible to predict as yet, but the winner of Bayern vs Real? you must be mad. they were the best teams 10 years ago, but not now.

I just think that Man U have been playing above themselves and won't continue this brilliant form. All credit to Ferguson though for doing such a great job so far, the best ever manager to apply his trade in the premiership Once Chelsea get Terry back I have a feeling they will go on a massive winning run.
I think Arsenal will win the FA Cup because I still believe they are the best team in the league on their day and if they can get past their 'bogey team' Bolton I think nothing will stop them.
Bayern Munich/Real Madrid, I have gone for an outsider here and you never know with the champions league- the best team rarely wins it. Valencia have looked pretty strong from what I have seen so I think they have a very good chance. Don't think an English team will do it though. (Note. I admit I don't know too much about European football so I will probably get that way off lol)
