tevez and anderson?

wasn't really being that serious AJ, i am suprised it's not a foreigner though. CQ was a big factor in us aquring alot of our recent overseas superstars imo.

Can anyone speak portuguese/brazilian in the coaching staff?

Anderson and Rodrigo both speak fluent English.

Rodrigo's English is excellent actually, came from a wealthy family and was taught English at school at an early age.

He will definitely be a help to Anderson who I know has £#%&! English, not sure about the twinsters. They've been training in Manchester for 6 months before completing their move - I would imagine they've been taking English courses in that time.

And you are right. He was dog-turd...apart form one game when he was detailed to man mark Gazza. Did well for Norwich for a season or two.

Pretty sure Tevez is still struggling, everyone else is okay..

Not sure about the twins actually, but Possebon is fluent.

Yes, it's not what we really wanted, but I'm sure Rene will play a big part in the coaching now. A lot of the techniques/ideas from Quieroz are probably still used, and at a club as big as Manchester United I'm sure we have all the latest ideas etc being used. Don't get the big thing over speaking foreign for Tevez/Anderson etc. Surely they can learn English, and doesn't Rene speak a few languages?

It's true though. I knew Queiroz leaving would be bad enough, but to replace him with a glorified fitness coach has just made it worse.

So the person who brought in Kiddo from doing youth work, bought McClaren in from Derby County, Quieroz in from nowhere now uses his judgement to promote Phelan?

Maybe we should just trust Ferguson's thinking here?

Fergie won a CL with Steve McClaren.

No, should we £#%&!, we'll win £#%&! all this season, 'cos any success depends on the number 2, and City are now the biggest club in the world and will buy all our players. £#%&! me, we're finished.
