Return of JC - Wigan doesn't count 'cos Rooney wasn't sent off for one of the most outrageous acts of thuggery in the entire history of football - TalkSport is STILL mentioning it regularly |

10 yellows, 1 red in 28 games. Last season he picked up 12 yellows & a red in 38 games. I know his discipline has always been a tightrope with his own brand of tackling but his suspensions are causing issues for his involvement. Missing some big games now, Arsenal away included. It's one thing being fresh, another to be unavailable through your own making. He can play as long as he wants for me, but I'd £#%&!ing hate to see the man go out a la Neville kicking & getting bypassed due to the physical decline. |

You look at Giggs and you see a player who still has a major influence, has adapted his game and is still vital if managed correctly, but you can see the cracks appearing with Scholesy. I'd hate for him to become a liability ala Neville, as you say, Marlon. If we win the league, it'd be great way for him to end and he'd finish where a player of his magnitude should: At the top. |

Carrick hasn't even been booked this season, let alone sent off. Anderson has 3 bookings in 4 less games than Scholes. Fletcher, who Wenger complained of being a persistent fouler, only has 3 bookings in 35 games. Scholes' tackling has been brutal this term, a sign of his age, nothing more. Back in the day he'd nail someone but get the ball, now he's late & it's costing him at the business end of the season. He'll never curb it, it's one of the reasons we all love him - the man is nails - but he'll have the %@#$&! ache he can't be involved at Arsenal in a week or so's time due to nothing but his own body letting him down. Likewise the fact that although he can run a game against Chelsea for 45mins, he can't do it for 90mins as he's completely £#%&!ed. Unless you have the runners around him to do the donkey work - and we don't. |

You'd pick Berbatov ahead of Hernandez in a 4-4-2? I know you're a big fan of his Throb, but that's being a bit silly IMO, especially away from home when the opposition will have a fair bit of the ball. Hernandez up front with Rooney in the hole dropping deep to support the midfield IMO. Berbatov warming the bench, as usual. |

They both missed a half decent chance apiece, but other than that they fed off scraps - over hit crosses, Nani's greediness, Anderson & Carrick's slopiness, Giggsy having an off night...etc Berbatov wasn't even on the bench for whatever reason. Away from Old Trafford, by & large Berbatov doesn't deliver. That's the reason Fergie doesn't pick him. I'm not trying to be controversial or trying to wind you up, just calling it as I see it. |
