In the University of Navarra’s yearly report on global popularity in football, Ronaldo retained his crown as the most talked about player in the World. In the top 10 players, our lads feature three times, with Wayne Rooney and Carlos Tevez also featuring. Tevez was the biggest mover in the top 10, going from his [...]
The University of Navarra have released the latest version of their highly-respected study into the media popularity and value of clubs and individual players. Last season, United ranked as the most popular club globally, however this season have dropped to second, behind Barcelona. The study reveals that clubs with homegrown talent, rather that bought players, [...]
Midfielders Rodrigo Possebon and Tom Cleverley, as well as defender Craig Cathcart, were flown out last week to South Africa to join the first team in their pre-season. With an hour played last Saturday, Cleverley was on the scoresheet in United’s 4-0 win over the Kaizer Chiefs, after putting away the ball from a Danny [...]
The Times has documented the top 50 moments in English football, looking at the occasions where pure magic was witnessed. Watching a great game or important event on TV or reading about it in the papers – all well and good, but not quite the same as being there, is it? What if you had [...]
Yesterday, I reported back on Avram Grant’s pearls of wisdom regarding which team from the top, claiming Chelsea were better than United and Arsenal. The logic behind this was a little cloudy though, surprisingly. He seemed to think that despite losing out to United in the league and European Cup, two months later, Chelsea are [...]
Frazier Campbell has an impressive scoring record for all the teams he’s played in, whether that’s our Under-18s, Royal Antwerp or Hull. He has bag-loads of pace and a natural eye to goal. It was his goalscoring ability which helped elevate Hull City to the top flight for the first time in the club’s history, [...]
Wayne Rooney’s wedding to Collen McLoughlin reportedly set the couple back £5 million, with OK! Magazine stumping up half the bill for exclusive photographs. Rooney took several weeks off, in a period of time where he was seen to be smoking, got a tattoo, and put on a tonne of weight. The smoking has stopped, [...]
The new design has seemingly gone down well with the majority (I’ll rightly or wrongly attribute the negative reviews to all the Chelsea and Arsenal fans we had stopping by yesterday!) with 60% of people rating it 8/10 or higher. So if you enjoy reading the blog, there are two other easy ways to access [...]
The Champions League final. With six minutes remaining in extra time before the penalty shoot out, Carlos Tevez kicked the ball out of play, to return possession to Chelsea. Just before, Joe Cole went down ‘injured’ with Chelsea playing the ball in to touch. From the resultant throw-in, United gave the ball back in the [...]
When news came in that United had secured Carlos Tevez on a permanent deal, I was made up. He was brilliant for us last season and aside from his goals, provided us with the extra fight and determination all winning teams need. However, when the supposed transfer fee was quoted at £32 million, I, along [...]
With the help of Ahmed at Soccerlens, RoM now has a lovely new layout. We’ve hopefully ironed out any glitches, but if you notice any problems, don’t hesitate to leave a message here to let us know. The design is in keeping with the forum, which is a place all of you are more than [...]
Carlos Tevez has been somewhat of a revelation to Manchester United this season, confirming he was well worth the wait last summer. His attitude is superb and his determination certainly helped United claim the title last season, scoring several vitally important goals. So here’s a quick look at Tevez’s contribution to our season.
I remember distinctly waking up at some ungodly hour in September as the text message sound on my mobile phone went off. “Jose Mourinho sacked!” read the message. When it was later announced that Avram Grant was the man to replace him, I couldn’t quite believe our luck. Chelsea were nothing without Mourinho. However, Grant [...]
With the departure of Carlos Queiroz as well as the constant talk linking Ronaldo away from United, the fact United have just enjoyed the second most successful season in the club’s entire history has been overshadowed. It’s important that we strive against this though, making sure our great season is remembered. I have no doubt [...]
Liverpool have finally managed to secure the deal for lifelong dipper, Robbie Keane. As the transfer was looking more and more likely to be completed, I questioned the behaviour of Tottenham Hotspur chairman, Daniel Levy, who just a week before accused Liverpool of being ‘disgraceful’ and ‘arrogant’. United, like Liverpool, were reported to the Premier [...]
