Flamini got into another argument this time with Wilshire. Looks like Sagna had to intervene... They say winning cures all ills.

Although Pellegrini has since apologized UEFA have "charged" him stating, "The Manchester City FC head coach is charged for violation of the general principles of conduct (Art.11 of the 2013 UEFA Disciplinary Regulations)".
In addition to the stupidly outrageous statements he made during this post game presser, his apology had even more stupid comments including -
"I want to clarify – I did not make any no accusation to anyone, not the referee, not UEFA, not anyone."
"He had a bad day with bad luck but I don’t think that he was in favour of Barcelona or damaged Manchester City.
"I didn’t day say that he’s a bad referee or not honest or that he can’t referee for UEFA. It wasn’t an offence to Sweden or the Swedish people.
"Sweden have a lot of good players, one of the best in the world in Zlatan Ibrahimovic. I’m sure he’s a good referee because UEFA have good referees on their staff.
"What I said is that it’s not the most important league in Europe and that’s not an offence.
"The third thing I said was that it wasn’t a good idea to have a referee who damaged Barcelona against Milan. It’s my idea but I’m not in charge of assigning the referees.
"I apologise because it’s not my duty. But I repeat I didn’t make any serious accusation against the referee, UEFA or Sweden. I felt from the beginning that he had a different criteria for both teams but you can have a bad day. I didn’t say that he did it intentionally. I didn’t say he was dishonest, or make any serious accusations.
"I was angry. The referee had a bad day and decided the game – not on purpose but because of bad luck."
He just should've apologized & said he was completely wrong. This makes him look even more foolish. I predict he'll be banned for the second match at Camp Nou in addition to being heavily fined. I guess some people just don't know how to shut up when needed.

Does Kroos start for Germany this summer? From the little I've seen of him this season dude has balled out. I'd play him over an Ozil or Gotze

41 goals short of equalling Manchester United's all-time goalscoring record held by none other than Sir Bobby Charlton.
Do it,Wazza.

2 questions for u guys....
What players do you think are capable of playing a false 9 at a very high level?
And
Do you expect Rooney to stay or still be transferred even with that contract extension like I believe how Kaka did?
Imo Rooney and ManU mutually benefit off one another from a branding standpoint, but curious what you guys think.

Woodward sitting there with that smug look like he just signed Ronaldo/Messi on some "UOENO IT!"
I get why they want Wayne as the flagship player, but damn, at that price, you can get 2-3 players.

To be fair though....
Rooney's new contract is worth the same £250,000 a week as his current one but his agent and the club are working out how he could use United's global sales team to boost his own personal sponsorship deals. (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/fo...g-long-term-contract-worth-300000-a-week.html)

No Lukaku, Traore pulled a hamstring in pre-game, thus Naismith starts up front for Everton. I'll take it.
