@Aravind: Aravind; Mate don’t let us get you to down. I for one welcome your comments and your views on Chelski and the Prem in general. Just don’t expect us all to agree with your pro Chelski way of thinking most of the time. I try to be fair…..most of the time and most of us here are decent and fair blokes. The one thing you will need to get used to is that we are all born with a deep hatred of all things Scouser, all things Gooner and most recently we have learned to despise Chelski and the horribly dull and overrated game of football they play, as well as the way they conduct themselves and the way the team does business. I for one hate them despite the fact that Michael Ballack is my favorite player. That still doesn’t make things difficult for me because I live, breath and eat Manchester United. And as for you, sometimes the perspective from the enemy trenches is welcome or even needed to better understand things. So don’t let a few bullies force you off this site. Just suck it up but watch what you say and never let our insults of Chelsea players, managers, owners, supporters upset you. You should expect it on here. We simply hate Chelski. But not as bad as we hate the Scouser bastards of Liverpool and their Spanish commandant with the lisp. “Hith Umboliebable”.

@GuineaDevil: A very interesting thought indeed. Hey, if you feel that much hatred when you see me comment, I’ll stop commenting mate. No problems. Just let me know because as you said this is a United site. Maybe RR will modify the comments policy also

@GuineaDevil: Mate, he hasn't been rude to you has he? As long as he's good, doesn't look to wind people up and wants to look at the United perspective of things, I don't think you should be having a problem.

@Aravind: I don't get why you should post here. It's kinda weird to me. I feel that Chelski fans can fuck off to their Chelski blogs like how United fans should fuck off Chelski blogs. It's kinda like where we belong. You want to support Chelsea in the middle of OT? Be glad if you can remember your name.

But on the pitch he could strut his stuff and keep his head high with the kind of confidence and arrogance that made Cantona such a success and such favorite.

He could. He doesn’t. He hasn’t in 2 seasons, except for flashes. His is the quiet assasination, not the peacocking perfection. Semantics but hey, it’s not like we’ve signed a striker or anything.

@Aravind: Trust me when I say people have abused even United players here. My point is you can't tell people not to call anyone anything as long as they aren't personal. So calling Abramovich an assclown or calling Saha a waste of space, as people have done here before (even Nani was called a faggot) is all fair play. And it has happened here. Of course there no permission to throw personal abuses here. But with this being a United blog, you can't expect most of us singing praises of Abramovich.

@Red Ranter: I’m a football fan first and a Chelsea fan next. So I don’t care about names being called unless its against me ( in which case I would just silently disappear because I don’t stand a chance)

I’m a regular reader (subscriber) to RR since November last year because I feel this is a great site, and a well-maintained one. So as far as I know, I don’t think people here will throw abuses on players and other readers.

@Grognard: Very funny dude.

@everyone: Can Berba be called a ‘goal poacher’? What do you think? Wasn’t Fergie’s rift with RvN because Fergie wanted him to be something more than just a poacher?

So what’s next for Scolari? First it was Deco and now it appears that Ronaldinho is next. Who comes next Roberto Carlos and Cafu? How about Pauletta and Figo? Ah why stop with Brazilian or Potuguese players you coached. Convince Zico, Dunga, Romario, Eusebio and Bebeto to consider making a comeback. It would probably help bring Chelsea’s average down to below 50.
