Not had anyone hit one like that for a while

Loved the mad little bastard.

Along with Nani and kagawa, the ones we sold too soon IMO.

That’s a while isn’t it?

Valencia’s wasn’t as good as that one anyway.

Rafael did it at Anfield and the Emirates too.

Da Silva twins: Flawed but fun.

Yep. loved the little balsa wood bastards, and all their flaws tbh.

Loved that game against Arsenal at Old Trafford (FA Cup, I think) where we played the Twins on the wings and absolutely battered the cry baby @#%&!s.

Good times

Fabio was actually the more talented one. Very smooth footballer, but built like a child. Rafael showed the difference a little more strength and tenacity makes. Could handle the idea his time was up, but replaced with Darmian

We've had the beige water-flavoured Valencia, young and Darmian since them and yet people say they're shit

Give me those two over these absolute creeps any day.

Fabio started the 2011 Champions League Final, one of Fergie's stupidest decisions, that and his treatment of Berbatov for the same game

Deserved it at the time IIRC tbf.

Why? He was in form and played fairly well in the final. Our tactics were the biggest problem in that final. And Barca just being better.

Both of them couldn't stay fit which is the main reason they've ended up underwhelming in their careers, but as CB says I'd take them over the dullards we've had at full-back in recent years. The Young-Valencia-Darmin years at full-back have been vile.

Fabio's fall from grace since that final has been massive, Young has been a very good servant for United it's not his fault he's been played out of position for so long and he's tried his best but he's cost us a lot of games, as many as Rafael probably

Valencia has not been the same player since that horrific leg break...and Darmian is just £#%&!ing garbage and it's criminal that his United career is still going on

Dalot's a long way from convincing me and Shaw has gone backward...happy days all round

Owen on the bench instead
