That is lovely if it's real

Why have we got the strawberry floating purple and black combo this year?

[Preezy]

That is a very nice Everton kit

This. Lovely design.

Our new away kit, on the other hand..

Lou Macari reckons United shouldn't sign Sneijder because he wears shorts underneath his shorts

Nah, I got a better reason. We shouldn't sign him because he is injury prone and would want 250k a week. Plus we close to signing Kagawa, who plays basically the same position.

But I agree, Macari talks bollocks. Him and Crenard do a lot, hence why I stopped subscribing to MUTV years ago.

[Denster]

The rodgers dchoice is an interesting one. He'll want time to mould his team. Will the Liverpool fans give him that time?
Should be interesting.

Macari is actually quite clueless on MUTV. Whenever anyone phones in saying stuff like "we need a new midfielder who can pass" etc he will just say "we are fine in that area"

[Chocolate Jim]

Wait we need a central midfield player??? Nah never ... We got park and rafael to play there after all

They're scared to have a go at the team because Ferguson will probably ban them from the channel, he's that petty

[Preezy]

Hopefully we'll have the Kagawa deal wrapped up in the next few days and then Fergie will turn his Sauron-gaze upon some other targets. I don't know why United haven't been as heavily linked to M'Vila as Arsenal have, Fergie should be all over him, he is the exact type of player we need to get our defence the protection it needs. Young, powerful, technically capable, he'd be an awesome acquisition

Then get Llorente, Munain and Baines and we'll be set

[Chocolate Jim]

A cheeky Gareth bale bid wouldn't go a miss either

[Hank Scorpio]

Gill said we had three particular targets. Kagawa, Baines and Powell ?

[Chocolate Jim]

I would have thought so but those targets and us letting both Owen and Berba go doesn't make sense

[Minto]

Letting go of Owen makes perfect sense, legs made of glass. Berbs not so much.

[Hank Scorpio]

Ferguson might change to a 4-2-3-1 with DDG; Jones, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra/Baines; Carrick, Scholes; Valencia, Kagawa, Young; Rooney

With Nani, Hernandez and Welbeck on the bench if needed.

[irishguy2008]

Fantastic appointment there by Liverpool. Exactly what they need and good for the credentials of British managers to boot ... applause all round ... I just hope he doesn't make you too successful again

He's also Northern Irish which gets him my support, be interesting.

[jamcc]

Not quite the pep most Liverpool fans wanted but I'd have had him at villa. We'll see how he does with liverpools title challenge next year

Let's not even joke about it; Liverpool will NOT be challenging for the title next year. No strawberry floating way. You can sig this.

what a bold prediction.

[jamcc]

Sig it then.

[8raz]

i'd rather sig the following risky predictions:-

"west ham will not finish in the top 4"

"alex ferguson will chew gum on the touchline"

"someone will hit the crossbar"
