What's he saying?

Is that Tevez's face he's covering in the background?

The 2nd piece of news centres on Wayne Rooney and the imminent birth of his 1st child by wife Colleen. The baby is due on the 24th October, days after the clash in Mosco with CSKA. Wazza has been reported as saying he wants to be there for the birth.

He could also miss the Anfield trip. Maybe she should keep her legs crossed until the Sunday night??

The report has been updated on line, and goes with the fact that SAF allegedly didn't know anything about this. Not sure how true that is?

The 1st part of a round up from this morning's Sun newspaper, as United feature quite a bit in there today.
Berba admits he has been haunted by his start at OT (and by blah_united's worries over him, too). He believes that the legends, such as Best, Law and Charlton tower over him and he wants to prove himself to the supporters. He wants to score more goals, too. It is a good read. The basics are:

"In my first year I was disappointed in myself. I need to say that. It was a big pressure for me and maybe I failed myself. I think I wanted to prove myself to these supporters. You must remember, they are used to Best, Charlton, Cantona. I am just Dimitar. I got a number of assists, but I must score more goals. I don't know what I am doing wrong sometimes. Maybe it's luck, maybe it's me... who knows?
At nights I have stayed awake thinking, 'You could have done this instead'. My nerves were too much and that is my responsibility. I will be honest. This criticism did affect me, but not in a negative way. I looked at our ProZone stats and saw that I was ninth in distance covered. I am kind of a nerd. I looked at them too much, maybe. By the end of the season I was fourth. Maybe this season I will be first!

With regard to the fans and their criticisms, he went on to say:
"That is my fault, not theirs. It is me who must change. Manchester United are their club. They have treated me perfectly since I came. I am more pleased with my overall game in this second season already. I feel that I have integrated myself better into the team. I am much stronger, much fitter. But I still wish I could score more.
Talking about the transfer fee, he said:
"Who can live up to that sort of money? Nobody can. If I think about that money it is crazy to me. I can't believe it. I am a footballer playing for the best club in the world. I am playing with legends like Scholes, Giggs and Rooney. Being coached by a man like Sir Alex Ferguson. How can I not be happy?"

With respect to an old thread about this season's kit, I just wondered how many fans actually went out and bought any of the new shirts, knowing that they will change next season? I think that most people have come to like the new shirts - I said MOST, not all, of course - but just wondered how many forked out?

The original thread (now closed) was here:

Me? Well, I usually buy (or am bought) a shirt or 2. I didn't this year, specifically because the sponsors change at the end of this year and the same style shirts will be used, with new name.
Yes, I am also having to cut down on spending, anyway, due to work, etc.
Next season should be different.

Reports in Italy suggest United keeping tabs of Fiorentina teenager Stevan Jovetic, with hopes to sign him in the future. Interest increased after his 2 goals and wonderful performance to beat Liverpool.

However, Fiorentina look set to respond to this interest by slapping a €25 million (£22 million) minimum relsease fee one him.

He definatly looks like a potentially great player, but the price tag looks a touch steep. But then again he did make the scousers cry.
