Quotewhy was that? you couldn't understand the commentators!
O'Shea did alright, awful looking "tackle" on Henry but I suppose Henry got his retribution soon after.
Watched the game on Spanish tv, infinitely improved the whole experience.
why was that? you couldn't understand the commentators!
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
That would be the point
Nevertheless the commentary commotion around the Barca goals would more reflect how you feel about it.
Bump.
JO is a great pro and recieves no attention.
Good luck on a great season, we need you.

He's going to need that luck- lots of competition at right-full with Wes Brown back fit, the Brazilian boys, Neville lurking, and that new guy Ritchie De Laet looks good as well.Originally Posted by Crosby87
Not saying O'Shea isn't up for the battle, but he could find himself dropped after a bad game....he was a starter last season, but I'd think this year he'll be playing in more of a rotation role.
Ya alot of competition, Brown is actually injured AGAIN though
John O Shea captains United today in opening game of the season with Rio out injured.Surprising enough with Fletcher, Scholes and Rooney in the team but delighted for him
Its really not that complicated!!!
Fair play John. I know he captained United in a few pre-season games but he's in the big-time now.
Well Deserved.
LESS OF THE BULL NOW!
Great stuff. Has he started as a centre back? I only have the Guardian report, but from the looks of things, United's back line is:
Code:Foster Da Silva - O'Shea - Evans - Evra
Thats it spot on Serb. Not really troubled bu Birmingham so far. Evans let a guy go from a corner but O'Shea hasn't had to do anything

He was very solid today and it's some honour to captain United in their first league game of the season. If Finnan can stay injury free I'd like to see O'Shea start at LB for us.
There was actually a nice touch by the United players when they were coming out for their warm up, they all stopped and let OShea run out first... he looked a bit embarresed by it but it was good to see the respect they had for him
Its really not that complicated!!!
John O'Shea has admitted he will never forget being made captain of Manchester United.
With Rio Ferdinand, Gary Neville, Nemanja Vidic and Edwin van der Sar all injured and Ryan Giggs on the bench, Alex Ferguson handed the job to O'Shea against Birmingham on Sunday, even though most pundits felt Wayne Rooney was an obvious choice.

Fair play to O'Shea, even if the list of player unavailable did look like a teamsheet
According to the Daily Star, (via BBC gossip), he is out for 2 months .. which would be a disaster for us.
actually reading a quote from Trap .. I think perhaps a journalist has just sensationalized what he said .. here's hoping.
Trapattoni revealed tonight that the decision had been taken in an effort to prevent the damage from getting any worse and incurring a lengthy lay-off. He said: "Today, he could not play because he had a bleed on the calf. He couldn't run today. I told him to be careful because when you pull that muscle, it is two months. It was not just for me, it was also for his club to decide."
Nice header off a Giggs free kick to put Manchester United up 2-0 against Stoke today.
Came across very well in post match interview on MOTD; could be a future manager!
Fair play to John for sticking it out and answering ridiculous question after ridiculous question.
FFS, asking him what the best Irish back four should be, who he hopes to get in the play-offs, what side should he be played on, what players in the future Irish squad how can he answer questions like that?
Starting questions with "Xavi6 wants to know..." Boards.ie is a cringeworthy place.
