The *Football* General Discussion Thread Part deux

Question

I may of killed the old thread by accident so please use this thread for all your football banter throughout the season.
I guess I will start then lol
Cor, Ryan Giggs, you know? Giggsy, isn't it? Mmm? Giggsy-wiggsy? Mmm? Oh! Ryan-y Giggsy-wiggsy. Isn't it? You know, marvellous.
Is George Best the old Ryan Giggs? But Giggsy-wiggsy. Precocious talent, isn't he? Mmm? Ooh, got it all, you know? Speed, acceleration, sweet left foot, all the tricks - the dummy, the drop of the shoulder, the shimmy, nutmeg, jiggery-pokery, hocus pocus, abracadabra, I wanna reach out and grab ya. Steve Miller Band? Spin Doctors? Ooh, very similar.
Diamond formation? Does anyone really know what that is? I mean, at least you knew where you were with Alf Ramsey's wingless wonders. You know? 4-4-2, 4-2-4, 4-3-3... 0898 654000, freephone double glazing?
Oh, those Brazilians, you know? Circa 1970? Broke the mould. Theory out the window. Free expression of football. Uncategorisable. Is that a word? It is now! You know? Far cry from small boys in the park, jumpers for goalposts. Rush goalie. Two at the back, three in the middle, four up front, one's gone home for his tea. Beans on toast? Possibly, don't quote me on that. Marvellous.

*title fix* RVP will be keeping the bench warm for United, just like Owen did.

I bet he gets injured and gets no more than 15 goals at best.
Apparently Alex Song is pretty much on his way out. What is happening to my team At this rate Arsenal will have an entirely new spine to their team as it used to be Szczesny, Vermaelen, Song, RVP. Now it's looking like Szczesny, Vermaelen, M'Villa (?) and Podolski. I'm not sure how I feel about it. Definitely more worried about losing Song than RVP though  Maybe it'll do us good, we'll win the title (or any cup for that matter ) RVP will feel like a total mug and United won't win anything this season, again.  If that happened my level of joy would be on par with the invincibles season This is the first season in a long time I've felt confident about a cup. But that was before the Song rumour. Also another rumour that's interesting is the Spanish international Llorente. Although that one is a little less likely I think. And even less likely is the silly Hernandez to Arsenal rumour. While it'd probably be better for him, I can't see Fergie letting him go like that.
