“Wayne Rooney scores for Manchester United… and it’s not the last time you’ll hear that,” said the commentator, as Rooney put away the first of three goals in his United debut against Fenerbahce in the Champions League. Wayne Rooney was the signing I had been the most excited about in years. Here was a youngster [...]
In the midst of Euro 2008, there were several reports claiming Luiz Filipe Scolari, who had just taken on the job as Chelsea manager, was advising Ronaldo to leave United for Real Madrid. In an interview Ronaldo claimed that Scolari had said that the opportunity to join Real is once in a lifetime and he [...]
Since selling Ruud van Nistelrooy in 2006, we have failed to bring in an out and out striker to replace him. Coupled with Louis Saha’s injuries, United have found themselves playing a different style of football to what they’d played for years, particularly when Ruud had been in the team. Basically, our wingers bombed down [...]
Ole Gunnar Solsjaer’s place in our history books was cemented when scored against Bayern Munich during injury time in the European Cup final to win us the trophy, however our love for him runs much deeper than that. The guy is a class act, one of the few United players who is respected by all [...]
Cristiano Ronaldo is a man accused of failing to show up in the big games which has been taken on board by United fans. The question of “what constitutes a big game?” has arisen. Your fiercest rivals? Important cup games? Top four opposition? I have heard people respond that every game is a big game [...]
Alan Curbishley was put under scrutiny this week when he claimed it would be a travesty if United didn’t win the league. Whilst I don’t entirely agree he deserved the criticism Avram Grant threw in his direction for what he said, I can agree that the timing of the comments, in the week leading up [...]
Last season, United played more or less our first XI for the majority of the season. Whilst both Gary Neville and Nemanja Vidic spent lengthy periods on the sidelines, for most of the season our team was VDS – Neville – Rio – Vidic – Evra – Ronaldo – Scholes – Carrick – Giggs – [...]
When looking at our results versus Chelsea in the Roman era, United fans may have reason to worry about our away trip to Stamford Bridge tomorrow. Chelsea currently hold an 80 league game unbeaten run at home and with a title to fight for, certainly won’t be rolling over for us. Six years ago, almost [...]
United fans will always have fond memories of Kevin Keegan following his loss of bottle as we came back from 14 points behind against his Newcastle side to win the league in 1996. The Sky Sports interview he gave, ranting about Ferguson, losing the plot as he shouted, “I’ll just love it if we beat [...]
From MancuniaMerchandise.com Time is running out. The Liverpool vs United game approaches and the sickly feeling in my stomach can be quite overwhelming at times. A win against Liverpool, particularly at Anfield, is the highlight of the domestic season (obviously, not in the nine years out of the last fifteen when we’ve won the title, [...]
United have faced quite a bit of stick this season, and rightly so in my opinion, for the lack of goals we’ve been scoring. I was the first to criticise Chelsea the two seasons they won the league after the amount of 1-0’s they scraped out to aid them on their journey of lifting the [...]
