The referees do need more help from linesmen and everything, but then again, are we taking away from the debates?

What would we be chatting about now?

It is the reason so many people are employed through football, is to make money from it, so if there is a major controversial issue, then that is going to make more money than a match with no news...

Actual football like what wins matches, goals, team play, crisp passing not controversy.

Does it take away debates? Yes it will take away the normal debate which usually centers around a referee or linesmans (sorry assistant referees) incompetence.

Agree with your statement about money but that detracts the actual passion for the beautiful game.

Should be about football not money.

Also, just read the beeb website, Falcao sitting on the bench for £265,000 a week! o_O even you can't defend that Ash surely!

He is only fit for 20 minutes of play, LVG would rather he was playing with the second team :O I know united aren't short of a bob or two, but that is £12m wages for him, plus the loan fee, for his keep his butt warm on your bench!

*Picks jaw up off floor

I said the other day that we should cancel the loan and that article just proves the point even more so. That's ridiculous amount of money which could be put to better use via a charity.

He's not a patch on how he were when at A.Madrid we'd be better off with Benzema or Lacodia.

Heard an interesting fact last whilst watching the spanish footy.

Since CR7 arrived at Real Madrid, he has scored 200 goals, in exactly the same amount of time (but having played a couple mroe games) Messi has scored 202 goals.
3rd placed highest scorer after those 2? Benzema, on 80 goals...

Higuain and Soldado both on 75

And they haven't been in la liga for 2 years, shows you the *cough class of Benzema haha.

20mil for a season loan deal, outrageous. I don't know what United must of been thinking paying that kind of money for a player who had only just recovered from a 9 month injury. I bet Monaco couldn't get rid of him quick enough, they were paying him 10mil a year tax free, he must be rolling in it

Took him along time to settle, I still happen to think he's a top class striker. Would be brilliant possibly in Premier League.

I still think he is great, wouldn't mind him at Liverpool any day of the week, but his wages and his £35/40m price tag put me off.

Yeah benzema is class, 35/40mil is the price you have to pay now for players of his quality, that's what Rodgers should of done to try and replace suarez but instead you end up with balotelli haha, he'd never leave Real Madrid anyway when he gets played every game.

True, we should have bought someone like Cavani, Benzema or someone of that ilk.

This game looks like a draw. Thoughts?

C'mon United!!!! nice 3-0 or 2-0 win will do.

Id prefer if BTTS happens, that's my bet tonight :P don't care who wins haha

Wow, if United get A win from this game, I'll be extremely shocked. Poor is an understatement. Quite looking forward to playing United like this ;)

GET IN RVP - them subbing out Tadic will work against them now - C'mon United!!

1-2

Will take the win but the 2nd goal were lucky and overall didnt deserve it, a draw or even a reversal scoreline would have been fairer. Hopefully we play better versus Liverpool this coming weekend,
