What ever happened to that Irish cokney Yorkshireman, Lenny?

It's times like these that I miss the stupid fool. Don't miss him the rest of the time though, the "without 10 pieces of evidence it didn't happen" ****.

Think he's still around in the Sin Bin under a different name. Think he's decided he aint coming back here until Arsenal start winning things again. So thankfully he isn't coming back anytime soon.

'team bridge'

united have done plenty of crass stuff - but that is up right there (no pun intended)

The quality from Nani for the 1st goal was amazing and the move for Rooney's goal was sublime. Never expected that today, we needed to win but that was special. Nani has actually looked the part in the last few games, shown great control and some end product to his game too.

What have Man City and Paul McCartney got in common?

They both got excited over one leg.

2 cracking goals from Man U this afternoon, Rooney just gets better and better. How bad were Arsenal though, Arshavin especially, had a complete mare. Fabregas was trying too hard and nothing was coming off. Ferguson tactically outsmarted Wenger again.

At each City home match one of the fans gets to choose a playlist - 3 songs to be played at half time. Today's selection included "Its a long way to the top" by AC/DC

To be expected, really. With regards to Rafa, I really am mixed on the whole situation. I want him to succeed, I know he loves the club through and through and he puts so much effort in, but another side to me has really questioned his reign after this season. Sometimes, bad form happens, sometimes, teams struggle to replace a key player, but at times this year, they've looked like a bunch of nobodies on the field. They haven't looked like teammates, they haven't looked like they're playing for the shirt or supporters, they've looked lost and part of me blames the manager for that, as it is his job to motivate his players.
