Overnight Manchester United got back to winning after their brief slip up to Aston Villa at the weekend… pity, Wolves manager Mick McCarthy only brought out the reserves for it though: From Off The Post: I played the best team available to me. The fittest, best and strongest I could pick, that hadn’t played on [...]
It’s now quite obvious that Sir Ferg knew what he was doing when signing up Michael Owen to United when everyone else (myself included) thought it was a waste of time. Five months on though and not only has the Scotsman resurrected the fragile striker’s abilities to score goals (as demonstrated last night against Wolfsburg), [...]
Either Sir Ferg really has his season routine down pat or other teams just fear the freaks that United are nurturing in their squad and forget how to play football when they’re up against the Red Devils. Last nights United showed that they can turn up the heat on the title race and even showed [...]
Darren Gibson’s classy two goals, helped an experimental Red Devils triumph over a near full strength Tottenham in their Carling Cup quarter final match at Old Trafford last night… and Sir Ferg. was happy as Larry. Goal.com And Darron Gibson is the one player in our club who can score great goals from outside the [...]
The Blues title aspirations got a boost overnight when captain John Terry escaped his marker and leaped highest in the box to nod home the winner and put his team 5 points clear of both Arsenal and United on the table. And boy did his efforts get Stamford Bridge pumping! Not pumping like “I just [...]
Perhaps the game of the season for Liverpool; a real do or die match for their season… and I ain’t excited. At the moment, the Reds are playing like a bunch of under 12′s and the Red Devils couldn’t be more uninspired if they tried! These matches always deliver massive talking points and lots of [...]
The early match of the night saw a lively CSKA (coached by none other than Spurs and Real Madrid castaway Juande Ramos) host a dour and uninterested Manchester United, who once again left it very late in the game to score. Man, I’m so over this United mob and their poor excuse for grinding out [...]
Hard fought matches (and Berbatov’s flying bicycle side-kicks) are the flavour of the month at Old Trafford in October and I can’t seem to work it out. Either United haven’t fully awoken yet or they’re biding their time till Christmas and will come to life causing unsuspecting teams to drop points faster than a fat [...]
Jammy bastards! I’m not even halfway joking when I say I hope Old Trafford is the test site of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s nuclear program! Match highlights: Older Sunderland news: Results – 19th / 20th September The Manchester Derby… expect the unexpected! Red Devils Bouce Back – Wigan Athletic 0 v 5 Manchester United So Much For [...]
Expect the unexpected hey… well that’s what I’d predicted. But who in their right mind would have expected 7 a goal thriller at Old Trafford, Darren Fletcher and Craig Bellamy scoring doubles, with the later actually seeing out a full 90 minutes and then an injury prone has-been grabbing a late, late, late winner 6 [...]
With Tevez and Adebayor set to miss this match, Mark Hughes has to turn to his 7 other striking options to see if they’ll provide the goods in what is poised to be the match of the season so far! United are firm favourites to take all three points, especially at home, but given the [...]
Scoring an early goal against Manchester United can be quite a daunting thing as was proven overnight. It’s like taking the last sausage off the grill at a fat chicks convention then sneakily trying to walk it out the front door without anyone noticing. Scary thing is, you actually think you have a chance of [...]
Some cracking matches this weekend and amongst the more exciting ones is the Red devils trip to White Heart Lane to face an inform Tottenham Hotspur. Last year United were one of Tottenham’s bogey teams causing them much grief… this year however United have been a little slow off the blocks so it’s as good [...]
It’s very rare that United lose two in a row, so one could imaging just how well the day panned out for an unexpecting Wigan side when United rolled up at the DW Stadium yesterday afternoon. For those not really interested in highlights, Rooney got his 100th and 101st goals for United, Berba and Owen [...]
The other day when I predicted the mid week scores, I didn’t think for one moment that I’d be writing about United losing so soon in the campaign. This morning however, I couldn’t believe my ears when I heard that the Red Devils had been beaten by new boys Burnley, so I could only imagine [...]
