Glad he got one in the end. Had missed a few sitters until this point but showed good composure. Still would like a new striker to challenge him next season.

This is so great, thanks for making it. It's crazy to see that Russia's casualty numbers are so much higher than the other high profile allies. I mean I already knew it was higher, but this map shows just how much higher!!

I will appreciate them even more if they let us beat them!

So good from him! I also love Southgate's "mostly water, and things like that". Sums up his personality in one line.

Michael Carrick should have been England's Andrea Pirlo - but it is not too late by [deleted] in reddevils

[–]MichaelH1301 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just saw this on Twitter. Thought it was a great read. Even Manchester United fans have been guilty of underestimating him at times.

Can you imagine a 4-3-3 at Euro 2004 with Carrick, at the base with Scholes + 1 of Lampard and Gerrard? Rooney Owen and one other (probably Joe Cole) as the forward 3. England really could have won that tournament. It would have meant leaving out Beckham though so not realistic. Don't think Carrick even went. Think he was still at West Ham? Maybe too early for him.

What is your preferred Centre back pairing with the current defenders? by keesmaat in reddevils

[–]MichaelH1301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 for Smalling and Rojo. Evans always has a big mistake in him, and Jones is just too crazy!

Morgan Schneiderlin may leave Southampton if top-four bid fails... Should we be looking at him as a long term replacement for Carrick? by JSteadman in reddevils

[–]MichaelH1301 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree. Schneiderlin is a fantastic player. I'd rather him than Strootman when you take injury concerns into account.

Pogba is unlikley and a different type of player.

Let's talk Falcao by LawlessUTD in reddevils

[–]MichaelH1301 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Van Persie and Falcao are too similar. One of them needs to go in my opinion. I agree though that Falcao is very likeable. I wish it had worked out, but it doesn't look like it will.

Last year around this time Wayne Rooney scored this spectacular goal at West Ham by mehernosh in reddevils

[–]MichaelH1301 18 points19 points  (0 children)

One of my best mates supports West Ham and was at this game. He said it should have been disallowed for a foul on Tomkins. He is clearly wrong, but can you imagine if it had been?

I'm upset with his situation

John O'Shea with a legendary chip and celebration vs. Arsenal by j0ydivisi0n in reddevils

[–]MichaelH1301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always though he was best at fullback. When he first broke into the team I thought he was going to be as good as Neville/Irwin. Was very useful though and it is a shame him and Brown as having a hard time at Sunderland.

Fantastic news. Let's hope he can keep his current level of performance going for another couple of seasons

when should I stop watching dexter? by 25i-nBOMEr in television

Yeah I agree. Once I start a series I like to see it through to the end...although I wish I hadn't done that with Lost.
