wellsy 0 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 And just used his shin to score an equaliser for Man Utd against Fulham. I think the commentator just said that is his 98th league goal for Man Utd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janu 0 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 (edited) Off topic, but should we try and get McBride in the summer? Reckon he would be a very good signing for us.

wellsy 0 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Off topic, but should we try and get McBride in the summer? Reckon he would be a very good signing for us. Every game i have seen he has been employed as a lone striker. Imagine what he could probably do with an Obafemi or an Owen alongside him. Reckon Onyewu could influence him to come here being fellow yanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM4 0 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Terrific player... but too late now I'm afraid, he's getting on a bit. Would only be another stop gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeazesMag 0 Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Am I not alone in thinking despite of what he's achieved he could have been so much more individually if it wasn't for those hamstrings of his? maybe, he's won enough though !!! He's a brilliant player. He's been superb all his career. I think manu will win the league now and to be honest - would prefer them to win it rather than Chelsea. It is the first time that they have not been the biggest spenders, and have been challenged by a club with more spending power, and Fergie has risen to the challenge, changed the format of this team and his attack by replacing an out and out goalscorer to a unit with more pace and mobility, and if they do, it will be the finest title win he has made for them. Giggs, Rooney, Ronaldo and Scholes have been superb, and Vidic too has been top class at the back for them, and made a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Leazes I think he has been superb, but what I'm saying is remember the Giggs who scored that goal against Spurs in the first season of the Premiership? the pace he had then was unbelievable, I think he's been marvelous, but I'm talking on the level of European and World player of the year recognition.

He is one of a number of players who - had they been English and played in World Cups etc - would probably have had more recognition, in spite of winning European Cups with their clubs, George Best and Ian Rush being 2 notable others. When you think of the problems England always have with the left midfield position, he would have been an automatic and top class choice throughout his whole career. Giggs was very hyped up when he was a kid as the new George Best. Its fair to say that he isn't as good as Best - who has been ? - but he has had a superb attitude and fulfilled his talent.

His lifestyle could have had an effect on his injury status (certainly wouldn't have helped), thus leading towards him not realising his potential, but the potential was certainly there.
