After a goalless home draw against Reading on the opening day of the Premiership season, it was Paul Scholes who scored our first goal of the campaign, finding the back of the net with just 15 minutes played against Portsmouth. After months on the sidelines following an operation, it seems as though Scholesy was saving [...]
“You’ll be lucky” Ferguson laughed, responding to the journalist who asked whether Paul Scholes would be coming out for an interview. Scholes had just made his 500th game for United, against Liverpool, at Old Trafford, and scored the opening goal. Like so many of my favourite moments for United, it was like something out of [...]
At the beginning of every season, winning the league title is top priority at United. You have to prove you’re the best in your own country for any European title to prove anything. Sir Alex Ferguson is eager to win another European Cup, reiterating the point several times that a club of United’s size should [...]
Group stages: Sporting Lisbon Lisbon 0 United 1 Cristiano Ronaldo scores the only goal of the game, a header against his former club. Group stages: United 1 Roma 0 Rooney scores with 20 minutes to go after we were promised revenge following the 7-1 thrashing at Old Trafford Group stages: Dynamo Kiev [...]
Like every summer, there have been several rumours linking Cristiano Ronaldo with a move away from the club, the destination predicted to be Real Madrid. Ronaldo has denied these rumours, claiming he is very happy at the club. United chief executive David Gill has today reinforced these claims, saying that Ronaldo’s relationship with the club [...]
United flew out to Moscow today ahead of our Champions League final on Wednesday against Chelsea. Spirits are high after the title win just over a week ago and thanks to our superior goalscoring and defending record this season, are favourites going in to the game. Nemanja Vidic, who’s missed out on several games due [...]
Wayne Rooney is my favourite player at United. He embodies much of what I think the perfect footballer is. Great ability, bags of passion, dedication, commitment, and above all else, he loves playing the game. As part of his latest Nike campaign, Rooney has given his opinion on a whole range of topics. He starts [...]
With United favourites to win the European Cup on Wednesday, there has been much debate surrounding whether Sir Alex Ferguson will finally retire. After going back on his decision to do so in 2002, the question of when he will leave us has been brought up time and again. Between 2004 and 2006, many hacks [...]
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 [...]
The usual rumours linking Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid came out this week, following us winning the title the weekend before. Gabriel YSB Heinze came out claiming that despite his best efforts, Ronaldo was likely to stay at the club for as long as Sir Alex Ferguson was there. Ronaldo leaves himself open to these [...]
Anderson has had an impressive first season for United, earning praise and respect from the fans incredibly early. His hard working nature, coupled with his great skill, won us over quickly. He has outplayed Steven Gerrard and Cesc Fabregas in our matches against Liverpool and Arsenal, which has earned him our best chant of the [...]
Mikael Silvestre and Louis Saha are both likely to be making a move back to their homeland this summer, with the players today admitting they don’t have much of a future at the club. Whilst Saha’s club of choice is yet to be confirmed, it appears as though Silvestre is looking for a move to [...]
I’ve had more time for Louis Saha than a lot of reds I know. Those who sit around me at Old Trafford have called him all the names under the sun in the few appearances he’s made for us this season. “You lazy bastard” is the most frequent insult. This season, when he has played, [...]
Yesterday, I wrote of my immense frustration upon hearing that plans to show United’s European Cup final on the big screens had been cancelled, following the scenes of violence involving Rangers fans. The Scottish fans travelled to Manchester to watch their UEFA Cup Final which was being held at the Council House. After a technical [...]
It’s Friday night. A takeaway and early doors at the local followed by semi-drunk dreams of the weekend’s game. That has been my weekly routine for the past eight or nine months. Once the weekend’s game was played, I’d spend the following week reading up on team news, thinking about the latest injury, contemplating the [...]
