IF he can stay fit this season, United have got a great chance of winning some stuff....
He really has saved United a lot this season - was a big price for a 29 year old with a terrible injury record but you can't argue with his record so far...
You have a feeling that United would probably be 7 points behind City at this stage and maybe even out of all the cup competitions even it wasn't for RVP.
I think I'm one of those rare people who doesn't support United but I have a lot of time for them. RVP's goal last night was just fantastic. The ball from Giggs was on a penny, not to mention the touch and finish from RVP. The first touch is my favourite of all the footballing skills and when it's performed to that level of perfection it honestly delights me, more than any step over ever could.
While writing that it made me think of Bergkamps goal against Argentina in the World Cup, which then got me thinking about some of my favourite goals, which has then lead me to ask this question...
What is your all time favourite goal or goals?
I personally have a top 3...
Van Basten vs USSR (do I need to say more?). He had no right to even think about doing it, let alone actually try it and pull it off.
Dennis Bergkamp vs Newcastle. I should hate Bergkamp as he was an Arsenal man, but this goal was beautiful. Stunning touch around the defender, a bit of strength and a cool finish.
And one that always makes me smile is Dumitresco for Romania against Argentina in '94. Wonderful team goal. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sThn7OkTvk Annoying vid but the only one I could find.
Mark, funnily enough I was having a discussionwith a friend about 'Phoenix from the Flames' the other day. Fantasy Football League was a top programme.
I actually brought up the question 'what ever happened to Sonny Pike?' Do you remember him? He was the new wonder kid of English football and was signed up by Ajax as youngster but when the hype faded he disappeared and I found out that he basically never made it and ended up playing non-league football. Such a shame for the kid as he must have thought he had the world at his feet.
Check out my scripts...if you want to, no pressure.
Good defensive game by Swans today, Chico and Williams were un-fucking-believable. Laudrup's side didn't do much going forward but it looked like they would have sold this one for a point before the game so I'm sure they're pleased with the result.
Not a great by Michu this time - save the chip on the crossbar - but that guy's been the signing of the season. 2 million pounds? Jeez. RVP has been exeptional as well - might even have done better than Michu - but you'd expect that from a player of his caliber, probably why SAF paid so much money for him. So pound-for pound Michu all the way.

Coop, that's a great link with Dalian Atkinson! I mean, Dalian Atkinson! Right back to my youth. he must've been in my Panini sticker album back in the day! Oh, and that Cantona goal just never gets old! I love that man just as much as I did in the '90s! And you see his eyes light up when he speaks about Sir Alex. Which nicely segues me in to tomorrow and my predictons for the 2 games:
