being a united fan i always get nervous when nevilles name is included in the starting line up, was a good player but i don't think he was ever close to being great. we also need to start with owen a bit more as he's proving he can still do it, plus berbatov still isn't impressing me so why not try rooney and owen for a bit.

Villa looked very strong today and I'm very disappointed with Utd's passing/final ball. Even Rooney was poor today as well as Carrick and Valencia

Villa came to defend and get a goal on the break, Wes Brown provided them with that break, taking a nap in the 21 st minute.

That said AV did defend brlliantly and United didnt create enough chances to break through.

I'd argue that we created the space for chances but as per my other post, the final ball wasn't there today. And Berba with that "taxi" volleyed effort WTF

Also notice that when Rooney did it (and he did I'll admit that much), Joe Royle said how disappointing it is for a player like him to need to "simulate" or dive. When Dogma does it, the same isn't said as the commentators expect it. It's the norm now as it happens that frequently

Drogba, being the worlds best striker, doesn't need to dive

Villa came to defend? even Fergie the Rednosed reindeer said we took the game to ****ited in the first half..
to my mind that really does just sound like sour grapes, Munkii.

3 points in the pot, 3 minutes of extra time (wasn't fergie's face a picture when that was announced )
the facts will state theat Villa won one-nil, didnt matter if it went in of an **** or an elbow, the scum DIDNT score, the visitors did .

that is all.

FPMSL, are you lost Dan ?

No sourness whatsoever we didnt deserve it simple as that, has been the case on a few ocassions this season, as a regular in Sport you'd have obviously seen the posts

Cracks me up that Villa fans choose to call United "Scum" surely thats the mighty Birmingham ?

Now f*ck off back to NSR

The word Legend actually used in context, a rare thing these days.

You're probably right Richie, but Button has been mediocre for 10 years, and was obviously in this seasons best car.

I'd like to give Ennis something, but not Sports Personality
