Rafael Da Silva is likely to get the nod to play against Villarreal in United’s Champions League match tonight, with both Gary Neville and Wes Brown not making the journey to Spain. Rafael’s only appearance since his wonder goal at Arsenal has been in United’s 1-0 win over QPR in the League Cup, not getting [...]
Another Chance For Rafael To Shine
Rafael Da Silva replaced Gary Neville in United’s weekend clash against Arsenal, putting in a great performance and scoring a brilliant goal. Neville’s days in the starting lineup are certainly numbered with this young Brazilian looking for a first team place, and no doubt Patrice Evra, who has had a very good season so far, [...]
Rafael To Start Against Celtic – Will he hold his nerve?
Manucho Sets Up Possebon In Return Reserves Victory Over City
After suffering what looked to be a horrific injury following a tackle from Middlesbrough’s Emanuel Pogatetz in the League Cup, Rodrigo Possebon played for United Reserves tonight. He was given gas as he was carried off the field, leading us to believe he’d broken his leg. However, tonight he made his come back in our [...]
Like The Sound Of This Da Silva Chant?
Wes: We’ve Been Here Donkey’s Years…But Rafael Is Good For Club
Against West Brom at the weekend, both Gary Neville and Wes Brown found themselves on the bench, with Rafael Da Silva starting at right back. Neville replaced the Brazilian with just over an hour played, whilst Wes remained on the bench throughout. Whilst I think it’s a great thing to have so many competent players [...]
Simpson: My Experience Will Win Me Rafael’s Spot In The Team
Danny Simpson is starting to panic after watching Rafael Da Silva in action, and rightly so. The young Brazilian has impressed all when taking up that right back spot, with Sir Alex Ferguson singing his praises in the past week. Simpson looked decent enough in his outings last season, particularly in his Premiership game against [...]
Fergie: We Finally Have A Class Of 96 Repeat
There are several phrases that get brought up time and again in football. “They think it’s all… it is now” is the most famous of these, whilst “…and Solskjaer has won it!” means the most to United fans. But a quote that is mentioned time and again for the wrong reasons in Alan Hansen’s “you’ll [...]
What’s Wes Done To Upset Fergie?
Wes Brown’s performance against Liverpool wasn’t any worse or better than his team mates, although unfortunately had an own goal to his name after an Edwin Van der Sar mistake. Yet for some reason, Brown has been entirely overlooked since this match. I understand why the manager would want to give Gary Neville as much [...]
Initial Reports: Scholes Out For Two Months
Paul Scholes was stretchered off with 15 minutes played in United’s Champions League group stage match against Aalborg. Although not looking in great deal of pain, carrying an embarrassed look as he sat upright when carried off the pitch, our fans of course feared the worst. With Owen Hargreaves and Michael Carrick both carrying injuries, [...]

Da Silva Twins
Rafael and Fabio Da Silva stand to have good careers at United, with the Brazilian full-backs impressing despite their limited playing time with the club. Sir Alex Ferguson is already raving about their quality and with limited options as cover, it appears as though we will be seeing more of these twins than we might [...]
