Although I am surrounded

by Man Utd fans,

its so hard

not to laugh at them.

Buying Michael Carrick

for GBP18.6 million!!!

What would that

make Xabi Alonso worth?

Even a certain Russian gangster billionaire

will have to take a second mortgage

to buy Xabi Alonso.

When Michael Carrick

was at Spurs,

he was known as

a poor man's Xabi Alonso.

I think more like a homeless bum,

alcoholic, begging for coins,

eating at thrash bins Xabi Alonso.

Sir Alex Ferguson is so funny.

He said he bought Eric Cantona

for just GBP1 million years ago,

could Shevchenko be 35 times better

than Cantona?

What a statement,

coming from someone

who paid GBP30 million

for Juan Sebastian Veron.

Shouldn't he be asking

is Veron 30 times better

than Cantona?

If you really like Man Utd

you should buy their official book,
