    ^whats your point.....

    Nani plays in the best league in the world on one of the best teams in the world.

    Djalo plays in a 2nd teir league on a bad "big 3" club...

    My point is Djalo accomplished more than what Nani did with Sporting. Djalo doesn't get the respect he deserves. The kid has a 30 million clause, let's see Manure take him on.... He should get a chance to prove himself.

    I am a fan of Djalo, but Nani is clearly the better player. He is a better passer, a better crosser, better with the ball on his feet, and while I think Djalo is a better finisher, Nani still managed, as mentioned, to have more goals in a better league.

    Djalo has accomplished more at Sporting because he has been there much longer. Nani was gathering interest while in the youth academy, then he produced on the 1st team, and was quickly snatched up.

    Djalo is a good striker, I think he has potential to get even better, I think hes one of the best finishers we have in the league. The problem with Djalo is he is really slight, and often makes bad decisions.

    When I see Djalo I compare his style of play to Pato (Although no where near as good).

    I think hes being rested a little. Valencia has returned and his form has been good. Still their go to winger in my opinion.

    That's a surprise, I would expect Chicharito to be the one.

    There are some rumors that Nani might want to leave United--people are saying clubs like Juventus are interested, and that Nani wants to play for Mourinho one day.

    You guys think he will/should play for United next year?

    If Ashley Young is bought, I am not sure. I think United is an amazing club, and that team has helped Nani progress rather well. But the fact that United snubbed him, in the CL final, for Park and Valencia (I don't care about the defensive factor, they were going to be without the ball regardless and needed an offensive outlet) really said something to me. He was their best offensive player this season and SAF still decided it would be better to leave him on the bench.

    His time at that club might have gone. With that said I don't want him to go to RM, he will get lost in the shuffle. Juventus could work, as they have no wingers and are dying for some width, but not sure how he would do in Italy either.

    I read somewhere that Nani has scored as many goals, in 100 games, as Ronaldo did in 100 games for ManU. Very impressive. It may have taken Nani longer to get 100 games...but still impressive.

    Yup. He was on fireeeeeeee today. What a game by both teams. I enjoyed it. Man U could have easily scored 6 goals, how did Rooney miss that Pk? Btw, wasn't he bald?
