The strength of United’s squad has really been tested this season, with the team being hit by injuries in every position. Wesley Brown and Anderson/Hargreaves/Carrick have meant the injuries to Paul Scholes and Gary Neville haven’t been too costly.
Neville last played for us in March of last season, seeing out just eleven minutes of our […]

The loss against West Ham yesterday cost us our place at the top of the table, but following the events of the Christmas party, I’m surprised the price we had to pay wasn’t more severe.Stories of roastings and rape were […]

Wes Brown has been a great servant to United over the years, slotting in at centre and full back depending on where he was needed. The season before last, before Vidic arrived, he formed a great partnership with Ferdinand in the centre, his favoured position, whilst this season has been employed at right back, filling […]

Ahead of Manchester United’s trip to Upton Park, Anton Ferdinand revealed that his brother, Rio, used to take ballet lessons. With Anton unable to replicate his brother’s ability, as yet, it appears as though he is eager to level the score somewhat. When Rio was Anton’s age, he made his big money move of £18 […]

Carlos Tevez will return to Upton Park tomorrow to face his former club. As I have already written about, there is an expectation for Tevez to get a good welcome, after fighting so hard and playing so well to keep West Ham in the Premiership last season.
