Zamora and Austin are two good players and gave them the run-around, imagine what Bale and Ronaldo going to do!
£18 million for Balotelli, not really a huge amount these days but they need him to start scoring and hit some form quick now that Sturridge is out for another four weeks..

Peter Biaksangzuala (an Indian footballer) has died after damaging his spinal cord during a goal celebration, poor lad R.I.P.

What a poor performance by United.
No idea why van Gaal would say this was our best match of the season, when it obviously was not.
Take nothing from West Brom, but United should have easily secured the 3 points, but again we lose focus and conceed 2 rather unnecessary goals. Bright side is Fellaini (!), but to many errors from the rest of the players. And why does RVP still start when he is so uninspired?
Falcao looks alot more motivated and is more of a teamplayer, nowadays anyway.

I think what he meant was that it was our best away performance of the season after we lost to Leicester drew to Burnley and humiliated by MK Dons, he has a point!
No away win in eight competitive matches, which is a new club record..

So what's everyone's opinion about the Ched Evans thing, video was released yesterday of him saying how sorry he was for cheating on his girlfriend and how he can be a positive influence in Football...
...I think he should never be allowed to play again, one good reason for this and that he hasn't shown any sort of remorse for his victim at all and there was no mention of her in the 105 second video, to him the sex they had was consensual, we don't know all the facts so that might be the case but she had to change her identity and move to a different part of the country just to be away from him, all he is sorry for is for cheating on his missus who has stood by him throughout...
...now Ched did have a decent scoring record at Sheffield United (45 goals in 113 games, not bad), and at the age of 25 he has got plenty of time to become a better player but until he fully recognises what he's done and shows some remorse then he shouldn't be playing for anyone at any level, not even a pub team...

No law should prevent him from playing, but every club should do the right thing and not sign him. That would be a positive step in football not tolerating / accepting this kind of behaviour.
Lee Hughes went on to have a prolific career.
Luke McCormick has returned to the game.
Marlon King made a comeback.
Good for them. I'd have hated it if they signed for Wrexham though.
Sheffield United have held preliminary talks with Ched Evans. The fans of that club need to make their voices heard and let that boardroom know that they will not tolerate it. If that fails, vote with your feet and wallet. That is how this should work with any team he signs for.
Also, just for hypocrisy, Mike Tyson is a major celebrated athlete today despite his conviction for rape back in the early 1990s; five year sentence with an additional four on probation and he was out after just three. He came back to box and over time, most people have forgotten the furore.

What evidence was there against Evans? I'm just curious because I know of cases were women have lied about rape.

Ha ha got to love it Victor Valdes would rather be the second goalie at man utd then play for Liverpool. Looks like he will join us and get to match fitness.

Why would we even need Valdes?
Sure, make him match fit again... But he can't be the first choice as that's De Gea, and Lindegaard is second (at the moment), and when would Valdes get time to play? We aren't in any cups, until FA cup starts up in January.
But then again I would rather have him on the bench than playing for any of our rivals.

That's definitely it. Not his massive wages and definitely not his ACL tear and questions about his fitness.

As it stands in El Clasico Ronaldo has 16 league goals in 9 games this season and the last time he failed to score at home in La Liga was September 2013, over a year ago!

If it weren't for the penalty tonight he didn't even look like scoring. He had a shocker.
