Thierry Henry is a player I love to hate. It filled me with great satisfaction that United finished Champions of England in his last year in the Premiership. Arsenal fans loved Henry and since I’d strongly disliked Arsenal during the late 90s and early 00s, it came naturally to have such a negative opinion of [...]
Poor ol Kleberson. As if his stint at United wasn’t embarrassing enough, without Old Trafford’s favourite new chant having to bring back all the memories. Anderson, unlike his fellow Brazilian, is a top quality player and certainly is better than Kleberson. “I have come from one big club to another so I am very happy,” [...]
Wayne Rooney is a fans’ favourite at Old Trafford following the past few seasons of entirely dedicated performances from the young forward. He is often criticised from those outside of United, but inside, he is loved and praised in excess. I have questioned in the past whether winning the Champions League automatically makes you the [...]
Getting a victory over Arsenal is always something I enjoy, whether we’re in a position to fight it out for the league or not. There have been so many great matches between the two clubs over the past 10 years or more, fuelled by the intense rivalry between the two clubs for the Premiership title, [...]
After 10 years of working as our goalkeeping coach, Tony Coton was forced in to retirement because of a persistent knee problem last season. The former City goalkeeper was regarded as one of the best coaches in the business, leaving United with the problem of replacing him. However, Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed that a [...]
Carlos Queiroz’s decision to leave Manchester United and take on the Portugal job has certainly thrown a spanner in the works for us. Sir Alex Ferguson had been grooming Queiroz as his own replacement, allowing him far more freedom and responsibility than most assistant managers. With Fergie already confirming that he only had two to [...]
Ryan Giggs has spent half his life playing for Manchester United’s first team, and over half his life as a United player. His list of honours is absolutely ridiculous. 10 League titles, 2 European Cups, 4 FA Cups and 2 League Cups amongst the winners medals in his possession. During his playing career at United, [...]
Eric Cantona has enjoyed a bit of a comeback, being linked with the manager’s job at United as well as featuring in a film dedicated to him and new advert on the telly. His most recent example of stardom comes thanks to Coronation Street. There are apparently lots of reds on set, which has lead [...]
Rodrigo Possebon was flown out to join the United team last week to take part in the pre-season preparations. The 19-year-old Brazilian has got tongues wagging around Old Trafford, all speaking highly of the young talent. “Rodrigo is a tall, elegant midfielder who fits into the idea of a modern footballer,” said Brian McClair. “He [...]
“Cheerio, cheerio, cheerio,” the Old Trafford crowd jeered, waving John Obi Mikel off the pitch enthusiastically. Just days before, Jose Mourinho had been sacked and with half an hour played in to their first game without him, they were down to ten men. Mikel had clattered in to Patrice Evra and Mike Dean showed no [...]
Reports today suggest that a deal has been agreed between Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool for Irish striker Robbie Keane. It is believed that he has already undergone the medical and could be flying out to Spain tomorrow to join his new team for a friendly against Villarreal. The fee is expected to be in the [...]
Whilst Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has secured his future with United, currently working as the Reserve team coach, the fans are being given the chance to say goodbye to Solskjaer the player, after he retired from the game at the start of last season. Of all the players to grace the field at Old Trafford over [...]
A couple of weeks ago, Ryan Giggs was presented with an honoury degree from Salford University for his contribution to sport and charitable causes. “I’m really pleased to accept this degree,” he said. “When I started my career as a professional footballer I didn’t envisage that one day I’d be made master of arts. I [...]
Manchester United fans rallied behind Cristiano Ronaldo following the dreadful behaviour he received in this country after the World Cup 06. The press, football fans, rival players and pundits were all after him, criticising and berating him, in quite shocking fashion. This country became obsessed with him and that obsession is still present two years [...]
If there’s one thing United fans struggle to agree on, it’s which of our great sides could be given the title ‘the greatest ever’. Whilst United’s success in 1999 is unrivalled by any other team, some argue that our teams from the early 90s were superior, however were held back in Europe because of the [...]
