Ha, don't think that move is in the cards!

Ferguson was at the Everton-Blackburn game. Speculation is the move could be for Santa Cruz. Wouldn't mind that at all.

I don't see it though, Ince has said Santa Cruz is staying.

I think it will be Berbatov as it has been speculated for last week. He WAS seen in Manchester, what the hell was he doing at their training facility?

Berbatov would be ideal. When healthy no one will be able to match up with United's attack.

Also

Earlier reports had said Berbatov was in Manchester today but Spurs denied this was the case.

I really want to know what dirt Heskey has on the F.A. it is the only logical explanation why this guy keeps getting picked.

Ah well. Had a slow start to the season last year.

Let's go get Berbatov.

They were playing with their B team.

Not quite, back 4 was intact and the center mids were first choice. Rooney played as well. In reality it was still a strong United side that should have won. Far from being a "B team" that is for sure. The depth wasn't there which is par for the course with United early on.

Credit to Newcastle though, this was the most defensively organized effort I've ever seen them put forth. Also that Guttierez was ****ing excellent today.
