Sir Bobby Charlton has today claimed he thinks Wayne Rooney can break his goalscoring record for Manchester United. Our legend saw his appearances record broken by Ryan Giggs during the 2008 European Cup final in Moscow, but has still scored 98 more goals than any other player in the history of our club. “Wayne Rooney [...]
Not being Irish, I don’t really understand the whole “second team” malarky. When Robbie Keane signed for Liverpool, claiming they were his boyhood team, before signing for Celtic, and claiming the same about them, he was ridiculed on this blog. I, like many, didn’t and don’t understand how you can support two teams. I won’t [...]
In the last 15 to 20 years the best central midfielder that I have seen — the most complete — is Scholes. I have spoken with Xabi Alonso about this many times. Scholes is a spectacular player who has everything. He can play the final pass, he can score, he is strong, he never gets [...]
All the young lads love the club and want to stay here. When you come from the area it means so much more. We know what Manchester United means to so many people and we all want to be there as long as we can. I have been here for nine years, since I left [...]

For similar reasons the American rebels wore brown trousers. As we enter the decisive final weeks of the season, with injury-weakened Manchester United [...]
Manchester United fans sang “there’s only one Bryan Robson” on repeat during the 1-0 victory over Bolton at the weekend. After it was announced that he has had an operation to rid him of throat cancer, the former United captain has received a lot of support and is hopeful for the future. “The prognosis is [...]
A Manchester United club statement has today revealed that former captain and current ambassador, Bryan Robson, has throat cancer. “Bryan Robson underwent an operation to remove a tumour from his throat on March 3, 2011 in a hospital in Bangkok. The laboratory report revealed a cancerous tumour, which will need further treatment. The oncologist is [...]
We love Gary Neville because he is one of us. All this phony hugging and high-fiving you see other teams do ahead of kick-off, the badge kissing, the promises of finishing a career at a club, the sulks, the agents and everything else involved in football these days made us appreciate Nev all the more.

A year after Eric Cantona made his leap into history with his amazing kung-fu kick at Crystal Palace in January 1995 he still had an extraordinary hold on the public imagination. One of my colleagues at the BBC came into work soon after New Year in 1996 with her 7-year-old son who spotted a little [...]
