There was a space probe launched years ago, with all kinds of things put aboard it so that if it happened to land somewhere the beings living there would have some idea of who earth people were, and what they were all about. I surely hope that replay was included with that "payload".
Somewhere there are some aliens playing football, and Giggsy's statue is in front of every stadium on their planet, and at the base it says "GOD OF FOOTBALL"
His contribution to United, and more so, to the game of football will stand out for as long as the game is played.

Yeah, seems quite happy to me too. There havent been too many wins/goals for us off late to show the happiness. Though I absolutely love Scholsey, I think most of the players change a lot once they become pundits.

Seems to be a lot of chatter today about recalling Nani in Jan. Maybe it's possible as we are paying all his wages. he's been on fire since he joined. He tore Schalke apart the other night.

It's a different level. I watched some of Benfica vs Rio Ave today. It's just not the same. We need a right winger badly though.

Champions League isn't a different level though and he's been brilliant in that.

id gladly take him back in jan to strengthen the squad. he actually looked dangerous in his one appearance for us this season. off the bench v swansea.

I've said this on here before...if he has got back to the form we all loved a few years ago then I'd have him back like a shot...there aren't many truly exciting match-winners around and on his day, he is definitely one of them... The 'different level' wasn't an issue for us then...

Damnit! Reading these ratings I just realized I watched the wrong match. Not many players through the years with United that I like more than Scholesy, so I generally believe what he has to say. So only way to explain that article would be if I tuned into the wrong football match.. OR, Am I hearing Twilight Zone music here?? EDIT: Nani Nov 7, 2014 7:15:37 GMT -6 ratbag said: There were times when Nani would be brilliant, and times when he looked like his football brain had fallen out of his right ear and been stepped on. (I often wondered if he was looking for that brain when he kept flying into the middle when he was supposed to be playing on the wing) I am still learning a great deal about how players movement can effect things, but it seems to me that top teams have "creative" players who managers put "on point" and more or less allow them freedom to move as their instincts take them. I think Nani sometimes had trouble reading the game, and he either caused traffic jam or his teammates couldn't follow his "vision.. Under Fergie when play got loose he had games where he was damn near unstoppable, under Moyes, who had a rather inflexible theory of how play was to go his way or the highway, Nani looked odd man out more often than not. I think LvG loaned him because he sees great pace and promise, but at this point, he has perhaps the best in the world at "freewheeling" in ADM and having Nani could well make the balance he is seeking harder to find. I think he'll be back and with Blind, Hererra, Shaw ADM etc, he'll thrive in a flexible diamond type attack I think Chica will also quite possibly be back, having a poacher along with young Wilson could form a deadly strike duo indeed
