robbie keane needs to produce, and I think Rafa is sending him a message... look for an upswing in goals soon..

I am really not liking Berbatov anymore.

I'm fine with Berbatov, but it starting to look like we're going to have to decide between him and Tevez- they just dont play well together.

I think tevez would be the one to go.

probably the fact that he's not scoring a lot or that he looks a little on the female side. my best bets anyhow

He's class tho (uh, technique-wise anyhow), gotta give him some time, after Tottenham won the Cup last season and they had absolutely nothing to play for (they couldn't be relegated and their European place finish was determined)... after that point, Ramos let go, they did nothing. Berbatov sat sulking wanting to go to MU since then, perhaps before a little.

A sulk that long takes a bit of time to get over form-wise.

Lesson: smile dammit and get on with things, make the best of where you at

I was excited when United bought him. I thought he could really be a force up front, and would add greatly to the attack looking at last year how much better would have united been with another striker. I guess I figured another big body like Ruud who can actually attack. He is not in great form right now and missing a lot of good chances, hopefully that will come around. But I see him lagging. He disappears for 20 mins or so at a time.

Then I look at when Tevez gets in the game and as I said before the guy just does not stop. He scores big goals, creates and has a motor on him. It would be a real shame to see him as the odd man out for this team.

Just like I was excited about Robbie Keane....

Same could be said for Park

I still don't know why either left Tottenham, that could have been a helluva team. Ramos spoiled it I guess. I had no idea Ramos would screw that job up so badly.
