I don't have the same love affair with Berba as everyone else. He used to frustrate the shit out of me.

Lovely goals though.


I agree no Matter how good berba was for us he always annoyed me because if he tried harder how much better could he have been? And he did go on strike to get his Man U move

good performance from the team today and again what a difference Jan makes at the back, we looked so much better with him back, lets hope he and toby stay free from injury for rest of season until we can get another CB in.... and with Rose back soon (I have given up re Lamela) we really could win this cup but we will have to do it the hard way - unlike the last 3 years where the winners (Man U, Arse) have had easy routes to the final where as we are guaranteed to have to play at least one of the top 4 teams remaining to win it but we can do it if we believe.....

It's tricky, chances are we are going to have to play a big side to win it and we are wank at Wembley. I would take Arsenal or Chelsea at Home in the QTR's right now and the hope we pick up something easier should we go through.

Enjoyed the performance today. Having Verts back makes such a difference. Agree with @StevePil. Davies was actually slightly better today (against weak opposition) and Trippier and Eriksen combine well.

With Rose back we could win this cup, but we need a good draw.

Nah. Have thought it for a while, mate. Totally convinced now. Doubt I'm the only one.

Both him and Son should be moved on imo.
You having a laugh?
We need more strength in the squad so that we can rotate when necessary.
These are both the type of player we keep as backups as we get more in.
We dont have the money or the pulling power to get better players 2 times over.

Once again when Eriksen has had a good game, we have won comfortably. He was very quiet against Liverpool and Gent, hence the losses. He's the most important player in terms of the rest of our season.

Yeah, just sat on the bench in silence ;).

I agree though, he is key and the fact that we haven't got anyone else in the squad that can remotely challenge his position or do what he does in his absence is a poor reflection of our squad depth.

Also feel Eriksen himself often being quiet in big games where we need him to dominate is the main thing stopping him from joining the top
echelon of players.

I think Berbatov wanted to say that he was better than Kane (on BBC). It's the only explanation i can think of that explains why he was talking complete nonsense.
Technically he probably was but didnt put in the shift Harry does

You sound as though your account has been hacked by POTUS, @thinktank!
I think we should move Son on because...look...he's a good player...a great player...I've never seen someone hit a shot so hard from outside the box...you have great footballers...I've known them...wonderful, woooonderful footballers from all across the world...there have been teams, many teams, big teams, good teams...around the world...but...I think it's time...you know there's always a time, right? ...there's always a time...I think it's time to move son on BIG LEAGUE...not to a 'bigger league', as you know the Premier League is the biggest league there is...for years and years it's been magnificent...magnificent...but...maybe he goes to...CHIYNA...let's say...CHIYNA ...we could make milllions of millions of dollars in just that one deal...and it will be a great deal...the best...it's what I do..it will be the best deal the Premier League has everrr seen, we will win so big in that deal it will make your head spin...you'll say OMG how can we win so big in just one deal??!!

It's all part of the charm. ;)

Very happy in general with the performance only two things I'd have changed is Eriksen should not be taking corners or free kicks currently & Janssen on for Kane at 3 0 as today would be the perfect game for a confidence booster for any striker.

We should keep Son as backup, but he has to be more decisive on his shots and passes.
