The Horror Continues - Anderson Injured

class player i hope he'll be back in time for the start of the new season

^^^ you must be blind then.

Brazil's doctor is hopeful it wont be too serious: "Anderson felt an injury to his knee, a twist. "However, it doesn't seem so serious. We will be sure only after the MRI scans." "Only after the scans will we be able to make a decision about Anderson's participation in Sunday's match."

Definitely didn't bully Fabregas, Onto a serious matter. You've resigned yourself to losing Ronaldo then? i must say, he truly is a class act, both on and off the pitch. The way he's repaid all of that faith Ferguson paid him after WC 2006...what a cringeworthy berkely hunt. Hope the purple nose one lets him rot in the reserves.

im sorry that was Gerrard i was thinking about, Anderson only played half of the game at OT against arsenal. buts still, for his first ever season in the premier leageu to come out on top over two of the alleged best midfielders in the league is pretty damn impressive. so i will repeat..........VIVA ANDERSON!!!!!

lol, k shewore, like i said Anderson was only a sub for the OT match. as for gerrard, 100% agree. as for the quotes above from the brazilian doctors, if they are even considering he may be fit to play on SUNDAY, then i would be very suprised if it is an injury that will affect him in terms of United. fingers crissed anyhoo!

shewore how kept fabregas quiet. what else do you call it?

theres no gettin past the fact that hes a gr8 player, u say he missed easy passes, he also did passes that most premiership midfielders cant do, and dont forget, he was 19 for most of last season, and it was his 1st season in a new country, this season coming he will run teams raggid! you just watch

i cant believe that all this conversation is happening to find out IF anderson is a great player or not....he is a world class player. only such players come into play in Man U's midfield with an injured scholes, and handle the situation the way Ando did...stop talking nonsense you bitter rivals!

now, as far as goals etc, fabregas is only 20, and i consider him a great world class player aswell... but there is no point in comparing A to B to C....they are very different players... but fabregas has been playing for 3-4 years now in the premier league, and believe you me when I say that ando will get his goals sooner rather than later...he had a terrible year before he came to Man U ( and it looks like this summer wont be better either), with a broken leg, so he's handled himself superbly. In conclusion, id like to say that Anderson has certain advantages that fabregas doesnt have, like raw power and body strength, and somewhat better dribbling technique. His pass looks to be very good already, with superb long balls and smart and difficult through balls and he will only get better with more action time on the pitch. So stop saying stupid things like "he is nowhere near a class player" or "Do you remember THAT match when he didnt play well?". See the whole picture... You bitter rivals you!

If the debate keeps raging I suggest we resort to drawing pictures... :)

JohnDoe no one on here has said he is as good as fabregas, only that they think he WILL become better...the two perfomrances head to head lsat year testament to this theory. Im sure you were onme of theose peropel last year who said Kaka was better than Ronaldo because of the games we played against Milan....well, same applies here. I dont think he is as good as fabregas at the moment, i hate to say it but fabregas is an awesome player, with a very clever brain. Anderson also has a great footballign brain and contrary to your blinded views has a great array of passing (may i suggest you watch the man uts wigan game at OT for proof mate. i think we can al agreee that BOTH fabregas and ando will go on to lead great careers and instead of continusoly putting one down lets just agree noth are good, k! oh and JohnDoe, forgive me if im wrong but dont you supportt liverpool? Who is your bright spark for the future? Pennant? Lucas? hahahah, maybe we can have a proper converstaion when your team has a player with half the skill of anderson or fabregas. i did hear you are in for barry aswell, another QUALITY signing!!! hahahaha :)

I wonder what did Steven Gerrard do last season?

Read what I wrote again united4life, I gave the 2005 CL final as an example for a big game that Gerrard played well in, not harping back to when we were European champions.

united4life, Those games, along with the 2007 CL final, were the biggest games Liverpool were involved in the past four years, and Gerrard played well in two out of those three games, not a bad ratio don't you think? There were other games I could've mentioned, many of them in the league and a few in Europe. If scoring in big games is the main measure of playing well then Gerrard scored against Arsenal twice, and assisted on another, Inter once, Marseille once, Porto once etc... Basically he scored against every opponent we faced in the CL other than Chelsea in the semi-final.

JohnDoe, if Man U players knew they lost the Prem and the FA Cup by december, then they would be rested for the ch league games and perform even better than last year, (as if it is even possible - unbeaten!!! remember that!)...Steven Gerrard is a good player in the premier league...nowhere near as exceptional as others in other teams as well, not just Man U. Look at essien for example! Brilliant! or Ballack. Adebayor, fabregas, flamini. Gerrard has been overshadowed by so many in the last few years, yet the only thing we hear is "REMEMBER THE CH LEAGUE FINAL!?!?!?"....get over it...a great player is first of all a CONSISTENT PLAYER....you guys dont know the meeaning of the word

"lets not mention how Anderson silenced the whole of the liverpool midfield with his raw power and technique a couple of times." A bit of wishful thinking from Alexpant. "Steven Gerrard is a good player in the premier league...nowhere near as exceptional as others in other teams as well, not just Man U. Look at essien for example! Brilliant! or Ballack. Adebayor, fabregas, flamini." Most of that quote is absolute tripe. But you know what the worst thing is? A debate about midfielders - Gerrard, Fabragas, Anderson etc is going on and you decide to bring a striker into the debate!!!

Lets be honest though, Gerrard is a bit crap.

Did you know Gerrard has a small, bushy brown tail like that of a rabbit or hare? Doesn't affect his playing ability but I thought you'd like to know.

tosswink you are an absolute joke.... and as for Anderson since he came to UTD he hasnt been anything special... i wish mach killed him instead of just injuring him (wishful thinking)

Hehe exactly what I was thinking tosswink. Anders ****ed em' last season and he will do it again next season. VIVA ANDERSON!!!

We would miss Anderson a lot... I was sorry to see him in tears. But he seems to have recovered, and should be back form the olympics soon :)
