Anyway ????'s, how much of the game did you actually see? The MOTD highlights? How can you see a formation before KO? Bait!

You are aware it's 2014, and there's this thing called the internet right?

[Alan Medic]

Yes. You can see the team. The manager does not have hand in the formation before KO though. Are you aware of that?

[Otta]

Yes, but surely when you see a team you can make a pretty good educated guess as to what the formation will be.

[Alan Medic]

Not with some teams. Three ex pro's were guessing formations before the Manchester derby. Besides this is about ????'s statement not yours. Not sure why you needed to be sarcastic.'Bait' referred to the hundreds game in case you didn't know.

[????]

Possibly it's because West Ham were only playing one recognised striker just led me to a hunch he was gonna play one up front.....clever me

[Alan Medic]

Like most teams do away from home. You were after the hundred.........

[Otta]

Alan, you like to wind people up, don't throw your toys out the pram if someone gets "sarcastic".

Not that I was being sarcastic, I was poking fun, but when it's not you doing the poking you suddenly lose your sense of humour.

Next person to see Jah, prise him of the ceiling won't you?

Otta, you perpetually appear to misunderstand me by telling me I'm trying to wind people up. However I'm sick of being told I'm throwing my toys out of the pram by someone/anyone who doesn't understand the non-point I might have been making. Half the point of my posts is that there isn't one. So sod it.

[Otta]

Okay, just a loss in translation then so sorry.

My first post was meant totally loghtt heartedly and not sarcastically. Clearly that never came across.

[aquarius moon]

Having a difference of opinion doesn't mean throwing toys out of the pram.

Nor does it mean having an attitude, causing trouble, looking for an argument.

It just means thinking as an individual and being brave enough to show that you are different to the majority.

Keane has made a lot of comments in support of the many ex players who have been criticised by Ferguson.

Avoid? It was hardly under Scholes' control - I'd like a bit of Posh, i'll get one of those for meself. Oh and those Armani pants contracts, I'll get one of those too.... Sorry no takers.

[Otta]

Haha, he could have worn a sarong.

[Otta]

And Keane has only stuck up for those players because he's at loggerheads with SAF.

Two egomaniacs fighting for book sales.

Surely not?

[StraferJack]

I didn't think Keane was having a go at Scholes for having a career in the media

as I read it he was having a go at him for NOT doing the same media duties as a player that the other players did and that he hid behind a "aw gee shucks" persona - one he has now shed

As for two egomaniacs fighting over book sales - I strongly doubt they are fighting a zero sum game - most people reading one will read the other

And both will be infinitely more interesting than (to pick someone at random) Scholes book
