    Anybody changed their minds yet on Nani?
    Not in the slightest, still think we need to give him til around this time next year top see if he'll make it as he's been poor to mediocre this season, Arsenal game aside

    Of all the games I seen him play, I did not once say he had a poor game, he always has some sort of an influence and for a 19 year old, first time away from his home land, i think that he has been as good as he could have been so far.

    he's been class in one game and poor in many, that's the difference I'd imagine

    So you think that a player who is class in one game and rubbish in nine is the same as a player who is class in nine and rubbish in one?

    No he only took the corner Vidic or Ferdinand will be credited with the assist.

    Anyway he was crap when he came on all he did was give away the ball and pull out of tackles.

    random guess at 2 out of 22 players?
    it was a lyon defender, therefore nani gets credited with the assist it was a good ball in too

    Great to see the legend that is Darren Fletcher get a game and play so well. I really can't see why people think he should be sold. Great option to have and he always plays well against the big teams.
    On a lesser more painful note...........Louis Saha is back. I reckon we'll get 2 weeks out of him.
    Since when did Fletcher become a legend? Seriously that criteria for being a legend is get lower and lower every day it seems

    Well Nani was useless today.
    Everytime he got the ball he lost it and set up another Chelsea attack. Nani was the one who lost the ball for Ballacks first and he kept doing it after that. He couldn't pass either and he wouldn't beat Ashley Cole with a stick never mind with the ball at his feet!
    Just like Park vs Barcelona I couldn't understand how he got 90 mins football and especially with Tevez on the bench.

    Dont forget that Nani and Anderson cost a combined £30 million.

    Id expect them to be half decent for that outlay.

    Nani has been inconsistent so far for United. He's shown class in patches this season. He'll probably be a good signing for them. I don't understand United fans hyping up of Anderson. He's settled well into the league and has been good for them but most of their fans make out as though he's been one of the best players in the league this season. From what I've seen of him he's still got a lot of developing to do.
    My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method, is love. I love you Sheriff Truman.

    From what i've seen Anderson is worth €29,500,000 and Nani is worth €500,000.

    I say it before, slagging off a 19-year-old is just not right, a footballer is generally rated in the mid 20s, wait 10 years and than make your judgement.

    I agree with that. He wastes possession a lot in games, tries the killer ball too often. Still behind Scholes, Carrick and Hargreaves in the pecking order imo. No doubt he's going to be a quality player though.

    He's 21 actually. I agree with your general point though. Like Anderson he has shown plenty sparks of brilliance but overall has been inconsistent as jmurphy previous alluded to. I think Nani is going to be a great player- possibly as good as Ronaldo. His technique is better than Ronaldo's, as is his ability to work in small spaces. We will see a big improvement next season.

    Some players never progress for whatever reason.Reyes came to Arsenal with a huge reputation from Spain and after shining brightly for a few months seem to run out of ideas.
