Real Madrid paid off David Beckham’s transfer fee in a matter of days through ‘Beckham 23′ shirt sales alone.
If they were to purchase Cristiano Ronaldo this summer, it would take them a bit longer to pay for him, given they would be forced to fork out at least three times what they paid for Becks, [...]

Hiddink To Replace Ferguson? Yes Please

A month or so ago I wrote for Soccerlens about why Guus Hiddink was a good shout for the next Manchester United manager.

United Are In Decline Again – What Are We Going To Do?

When I was younger, the occasions I came across someone who wasn’t a United fan were few and far between. There was a lad at primary school who supported Oldham but even the kids whose parents were City fans saw themselves as United fans when we were small. How it must have broken their dad’s [...]

Finally… The RoM Reaction To Barca

I was confident before the game. Barcelona had really struggled against Chelsea so it stood to reason they would really struggle against us. What I didn’t really account for was the fact Sir Alex Ferguson wasn’t going to play anywhere near as defensively as Chelsea did, meaning Barca would have more room to attack.

Rio & Vidic: We Weren’t Good Enough

Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic had a poor game yesterday, particularly the latter, in not showing up when they were needed. Samuel Eto’o ran past Vidic with ease to score the opening goal and somehow that midget Messi managed to get to the ball first to head in to the net to make it 2-0.
