“I’ll see you out there!” Roy Keane threatened Patrick Vieira, the referee standing between the two players after the Arsenal midfielder had hurriedly made his way down the tunnel away from our captain. As the images were broadcast over Sky Sports ahead of the much awaited Arsenal vs United clash at Highbury, I couldn’t quite […]
Scored one and unselfishly assisted another against the Czech Republic. At the very least, he’s bumping up his transfer fee with every game he plays in the Euros!
It’s a shame we can’t take the same enjoyment from Ronaldo’s performances as we would if we knew for certain his future, for the next season at least, […]
Despite saving Cristiano Ronaldo’s spot kick in the European Cup final penalty shoot out, Petr Cech was on the losing side in Moscow after Edwin Van der Sar saved Chelsea’s sixth penalty taken by Nicolas Anelka.
Unlike his captain, John Terry, who bawled like a baby, Cech was able to put a hold on the waterworks. […]
The talk concerning United’s future captain has been rife this season, with Gary Neville at times looking as though his career was over and Ryan Giggs, the vice-captain, not getting any younger. Rio Ferdinand is the obvious replacement, taking the armband whenever both these players aren’t on the field. However, Wayne Rooney got to have […]
There has been a lot said about Fabio Capello’s decision to make Rio Ferdinand temporary captain of England in the press this week. Some questioned how appropriate it was to make Ferdinand captain when taking in to consideration his less than glowing past. Others recognised the change in Ferdinand and his commitment to being a […]
Two or three years ago, John Terry was one of the few players representing a rival team that I had a certain amount of respect for. I regarded him as a very good player, a great leader, and someone I would have been very keen to see partnering Rio Ferdinand at the back. However, his […]
“You can stick your fucking England up your arse” goes the Manchester United fans’ chant. Following years of negative treatment from England fans and the FA directed at our club, players and fans, many of the most devout United fans are proud of their anti-England stance. The sense of being Mancunian is much stronger than […]
With the injury to Gary Neville and the tired legs of Ryan Giggs, Rio Ferdinand has had his fair share of wearing the captain’s arm band for United so far this season. Captaincy is a role his relishes, and one that I feel, despite not being his biggest fan, he does a bloody good job […]
Ever since Wayne Rooney emerged on to the football scene as a teenager there has been a lot of hype surrounding him. It started with the Everton fans. They might remember a cheeky 11 year old ball boy who chipped Neville Southall in the warm up before the Merseyside derby back in 1996, who went […]
The Arsenal and Liverpool fans were laughing when the player who had turned them down had a mare of a debut for United. Patrice Evra was thrown in at the deep end for United, playing his first game on derby day. He was subbed off at half time and United lost 3-1.
Since then, we have […]
