Photograph: Matthew Peters/Man Utd via Getty Images Manchester United have been hit with a virus ahead of tomorrow's derby against City with Patrice Evra, Nemanja Vidic, Dimitar Berbatov and Paul Scholes all believed to be among the victims. The illness swept through their Carrington training complex following the squad's return from Turkey and, with Ryan Giggs ruled out with a hamstring injury and Nani doubtful after tweaking a groin, it means that Sir Alex Ferguson may have to rely on some of the untested members of his squad for the match with Manchester City at Eastlands. "It is not a great position for us to be in. We are counting heads at the moment," he said. The Manchester United manager also confirmed that he expects Owen Hargreaves to be out for five weeks with the hamstring injury which forced him to limp off after only five minutes of United's match with Wolves on Saturday. "We were at the stage where we knew Owen's knee was OK," Ferguson said. "His training performances for eight or nine days previously had been terrific. He had done really well, which is why we took the chance. But maybe the tension in the build-up for the lad was too much and he suffered because of it." Despite having to contend with a depleted squad Ferguson was still confident ahead of the highly anticipated match. "There is nothing more satisfying than winning a derby game. It doesn't matter what year it is or when it is," said Ferguson, who oversaw three victories against City last season including two in the league by way of last-minute goals and one at Old Trafford in the Carling Cup semi-final second leg. Ferguson accepted that Manchester City's resources mean that they are bound to challenge for the title but it is still a difficult league to win. "If clubs have money and want to spend it, they will," said Ferguson. "Chelsea did the same. So did Sunderland back in the 1950s. It is not an unusual thing. It is a fact of life. "The only difference is that City is an untapped well at the moment. But it is difficult to say whether it is inevitable they are going to win the league at some point. Obviously, in many people's eyes, having the money is a lot better than not having it. But it is still a difficult league to win. City recognise that themselves."

hola todas !

Come on City... less than 26 hours to go !

if city were lucky we would be top now :smug:

yes that was another thing our guests got to see lots of places your typical tourist would not good luck nick

I have lived in a house wheras we have had people whom have come and did coach surfing. It was overall a very positive experince and we all have gone on to gain friends. Only one person out of around 10 guests in total seemed to take advantage of our hospitallity, by using our living room as some sort of office. Just to say he was not welcomed back again.

Hola mis muchacos del Argentina ya estoy aqui... trabajó pero estoy cansado.. como mi hermano de Argentina Carlos Tévez.

She was just as bad. She had no shame when it come to being naked around the house. or sharing the bathroom naked as well

I left her house. I never told her though !

:wink3:

Thanks guys for all your words of support. It means a lot. This is going to be one the hardest things I have ever had to deal with. First and foremost, she is a friend possibly a great one. I want to keep this. We spend a hell of a lot of time with each other maybe for this stage in our friendship maybe an unhealthy amount. I know I spend that about thinking about it. the only discration for me is my football team. I am at a loss if we choose to take a step back from each other, in order to save the friendship. Outside of the complicated stuff as I said already we have quite a lot in common. I would only go with her, if she said she had left this guy, she is with. Also it would be on the condition she drops this open relationship thing, or it wont happen. ( she has hinted if things were stable for her, she would not do this thing anymore) She knows how I feel about that, and I have said a number of times when it has arisen in talks, I have made it more than clear I would not go with her whilst she has a boyfriend. In saying that I have to dropped a massive hints. " Look, I love you to bits love, but you have someone " and gone on to say, " I could not cope as I am already crazy about you, and that would push me over the edge, if we were to go with each other, and you was still with him. " We will see each other some time this week, and hopefully have the guts to talk about it.

We did. I had a an idea we had a chance with the 2 sending offs West Brom had against Blackpool.. Lets see how the Derby goes, it seems again our season and the direction it may take depends on this result. I am planning a party at my local pub, lots of people are turning up just to see me go mental. I reckon if we win, I will be doing quite well with a few free drinks.. plus not to take into account of what my local will be giving me for the extra customers they will have that night

Well done Newcastle... lets hope we stay the remianing 30 minutes in the lead... down to 10 men. Super Mario sent off !

Please I hope City win today... I really do !

I don’t think I would ever cope. It takes me longer enough to get over being rejected by someone, I have took time of work etc, been back home to see my family for further support in some circumstances. So if that was to happen, I think I would go mental. I can not help that I think I would see further help to stop this, however its easy to say it now. I am not the best in these situations, last night I almost cracked the guy open that was flirting with her etc. I am not a violent guy at all, however when it comes to women there is a trigger in me, that even scares myself. I will not cheat with her on him, that’s a promise, but this week. I will end it either way. I am going to be so sad, as she will be in a corner and lose a good friend, she has done a lot for me in the time we have known each other as well. I will be worried about her, as I think when it comes to the love of a friendship what we have already her words are very true.

Yea I have told her this too. When in the past, she has told me she is fine about this open relationship. The 1st time I met her boyfriend as well, the very 1st thing I said to him, is that I would not feck him over. She said to me afterwards he does not care..However I will keep that promise. I see her this week, I will talk to her about it as I can not go on with this. Its been building up over a 6 month period now. My friends said they are gonna support what ever decison I make on this one.

Its a real pity this. We really do get on so well.. but I would be so hurt, if it never worked out. !

Obrigado... !

Can someone please tell me if the band called " The Gift " are gonna do some more stuff tours. ?? Or did they have a augment with their record label I Understand some portuguse, but not very much, however I understood this could have been an issue.

YES i WILL DO THIS, this can not carry on.. for much longer. ! for my own sanity

You´re very right. Reilly, pity about this, one things like this dont happen to often to me. The photo is one of those that you take for your passport, with each other. Going back to the subject. I can try to be her friend, but it will be hard. I have been very postive about her boyfriend and encouraged her all the time to be with him, to drop this open relationship stance with him. As if I was to sleep with her I would be very upset when she went back to him. Now I its not so bad, but sleeping with each other would change everything. I thought kissing was silly enough, but that is something else.

Some background information here. I have a friend we are now very close after a few months of meeting and going for drinks with each other. She has a boyfriend, now and again she tells me this is an open relationship. Hey boyfriend is really nice to me, whom soon I hope could be a friend as well, or maybe not. We have flirted and kissed a few times, and now and again say things to each other like " I love you etc " but more in the sprit of a friendship. I have always fancied her and told her, the only reason why I have not asked to be with her as she has him. There has been a few occasions now when we have been drunk we could have took it further. However due to me not wanting to betray hey boyfriend I have not. Last night we went out and there was this other guy, within moments she was kissing him, I loosely know this guy and in my opinion he is a jerk. I could not contain my jealousy, felt pretty bad however my feelings were getting hurt. I said this to her, this brought something else out. She said she did this to see what I would do. Then we took a special photo with each other in a photo booth. She asked me again last night to come to her flat and be with her. I cried almost and said I can not whilst she is with her boyfriend. The situation is now critical, her boyfriend loves her, and was more than good to me when he has met me, despite me spending lots of time with his girlfriend, a part of me wants her to step up the ante and tell her to leave her boyfriend if she wants to be with me, but then he would be sad. One thing I would struggle with my counsice would be to cheat with her. I could not look this guy stright in the face. The other option I have is to break it off the friendship with this girl however if I do, all that we have been though so far will be lost, apart from the feelings there is a lot of mental understand of each other too.. we also share somethings we have found about our childhood that is very unique.

good result for city spurs getting beat

we only need 3 points to get in the next round out of 2 games.. worried about mancini though.. i really like him

Look if your good enough ... you can earn it ... and entiled to it... totally agree with robbie savage on that one--- !
