The Manchester United Thread

Manchester United have lost South America scout Marcelo Teixeira, who has joined Fluminense as football vice-president.
 
All the best Johnno and Wes, both brilliant role models and constant proffessionals. Not my fravorite two players who have wore the red shirt but two players who never fail to give 110% effort. Sunderland have landed two very good players!

All the best lads.

Very good news on Morrison. Looks like he is changing for the good.. (Copying from Redcafe)

The judge said this at his most recent appearance
“I’ve been given a glowing report on you. It indicates you have attended all of your appointments, you are working with Manchester United and the youth team to improve your maturity and, in particular, you are dealing with anger-management issues. In group work, I’m told you have engaged positively with other young people. Someone in your position has achieved a deal of fame – you can use that to make the world a better place and, if this referral order makes you understand that, it can only be a good thing.”

Daniel Taylor.
But there are at least the first signs that he might slowly beginning to ‘get it.’ I’ve got to be honest, he really didn’t look like he could give a **** when he was in court for the witness intimidation case. But at his court case this week he was in a suit, he hadn’t brought any of his hangers-on with him and, overall, he just seemed a little bit older and wiser. The reports from the youth offending team were all positive and – if it was genuine – there was no longer that sense that he thought he was untouchable.

2010/11 - 22 games 4 goals 2 assist (14 PL 4 UCL 2 FAC 2 CC)

Ando's stats is close to Xavi and Gerrard when they where in the same age, little less game's but similar end products. Remember he ended 2009/10 season with a injury and started the last season close to November.

I remember Xavi in his early days and he was a little bit similar to Anderson, sometimes frustrating but the talent was there to see.

Be patience! Ando have what it takes and his best years are in front of him.

Edit: These stats maynot be 100% accurate. But at least it gives hope that Anderson can do better in the future..
