The transfer saga, which the John Obi Mikel signing turned in to, was a strange situation for the club to be in. For a player to go to such measures to ensure they didn’t fulfil their contract obligations to join Manchester United was rather bewildering. Granted, we’d only won the League Cup and came second [...]
If you thought the transfer talk would end when January did, you were wrong. It seems that already the press are eagerly anticipating the summer when more players will be bought and sold. Berbatov is the obvious transfer link for United, but it appears we are now interested in a Lyon duo worth an incredible [...]
After over two years of talk about ‘the Brazilian twins’ but little evidence to back it up, I was starting to wonder whether the plausibility of them joining United was up there with the Kerlon ‘the seal’ signing. They have been linked to the club ever since they were fifteen, with whispers of trials and [...]
The transfer window is open again, and again, Ronaldo is being linked with a move away from the club. His open admiration for the Spanish game doesn’t help matters, it has to be said, with the every day hacks not needing any encouragement to link the winger with Real Madrid. However, United have been on [...]
It seems to be a done deal that Wesley Brown will leave United on a free transfer at the end of the season, after rejecting our final contract offer. There has been a divide in the United camp over whether Brown has been foolish or sensible in turning down our offer. Is it fair for [...]
Cristiano Ronaldo is just six goals short of his impressive goal tally last season, flying high on the domestic stage as well as in the Champions League. He tops the highest scorer board in both competitions, firmly staking his claim for the top accolades next season after losing out to Kaka this year. He has [...]
Dimitar Berbatov took home the match ball this weekend, after Spurs’ exhilarating 6-4 over Reading. Berbatov scored four of the goals, leading Spurs to another impressive victory, after the 5-1 thrashing they dealt Fulham just a few days before. Before the start of the season there was talk of Tottenham replacing their local rivals, Arsenal, [...]
Wes Brown has been a great servant to United over the years, slotting in at centre and full back depending on where he was needed. The season before last, before Vidic arrived, he formed a great partnership with Ferdinand in the centre, his favoured position, whilst this season has been employed at right back, filling [...]
This time last year, Manchester was buzzing with talk of Henrik Larsson joining United. Just a few months previous, Larsson had made all the difference to Barcelona, assisting both their goals in the European Cup final win over Arsenal. When news first broke that he was on his way to Old Trafford, it felt like [...]
Nemanja Vidic has been a revelation to Manchester United’s defence, proving there’s no tackle he’ll pull out of and no header he can’t win. The crowd have been quickly won over by our Serbian superstar who Ferguson signed at steal of £7 million in the January transfer window the season before last. He has established [...]
It might have been Berbatov’s scoring record in the Bundesliga which first drew your attention to the player, or possibly you took note of the striker when his side, Bayer Leverkusen, knocked us out of the Champions League on goal difference in 2002. For most United fans, it was his snub in the summer of [...]
Back in 2003, when United looked set to sign Ronaldinho, we were met with disappointment when the twenty three year old signed for Barca at the last minute. Despite our attempts to lure him to Manchester, offering out of favour keeper Barthez as part of the deal to PSG, he opted to put pen to [...]
