If you can just show me where he says "and British players never dive" then you might have a point. Suppose it is natural for a French team to defend foreigners.

it's a shame we sent Tom Daley to The Olympics when we could have had a Guaranteed GOLD Medal from Ashley Young

Seems the foreigners taught the prem players well...tevez is amongst the worst divers i've ever seen.

Flange.

**Nitey** · 10-06-2012

Good point. If you ever watch La Liga it's a disgrace. So much more diving and ref surrounding that you see in England.

Good team that. Lets go.

Here's Johnny

**Tutankhamun** · 10-07-2012

We're playing well. Deserved lead.

**manutdfan** · 10-07-2012

Pat!!

Yeah great start, great tempo.

**santinomarella** · 10-07-2012

Great win!!

Now it's time for the boring international break.

**Tutankhamun** · 10-07-2012

Yeah. Good game, even better result. Looked fierce today. Thought Rooney was absolutely brilliant.

**manutdfan** · 10-07-2012

Yeah great result and performance! Rooney was top notch today

**dc89** · 10-07-2012

Good win by United today!

In other news, Mancini is currently at the Atletico V Malaga game and guess who he is sat next to? Falcao's agent. Be afraid, be very afraid.

Wouldn't make much of a difference, your strike force is world class anyway. He looks Chelsea bound to me, and they certainly need him more. Now if they get him and a decent CB, then I'll be afraid. And you should be too.

**jj03** · 10-08-2012

Yep. If chelsea grab him, city would be the least of our worries ..

Flange.

**manutdfan** · 10-10-2012

Always a shame the International break! Especially when Wales are struggling big time

**dc89** · 10-10-2012

Congrats to Coleen & Ryan.

As Brady walked off, tray in hand a few moments later than he expected, a watching Alex Ferguson called him over.

“Why did you let him in there?”

“It’s Ronaldo boss.”

“You’re here to take his place son. Don’t let me see you do that again.”

That's how you manage a team.

**manutdfan** · 10-12-2012

Awesome!! Fergie legend!!

**santinomarella** · 10-20-2012

Ohhhh Danny Roo Persie!

**Tutankhamun** · 10-20-2012

Good game today

Looked sharp upfront. Would like Shawcross back. Hope those rumors are true.

If Rio doesn't get his head out of his backside, it could happen in January. He's been at fault for a couple of goals of late. I think he's lost the art of at least attempting to make a tackle.

Nice to see Nicky Butt back at the club.

And I totally agree with rednick in the comments.
