Having seen the result from the Arsenal game, the United players knew that they had the opportunity to close the gap to three points…and you could really see that they wanted to make the most out of the game.
As I expected Nani, Carrick, Fletcher and Tevez started the game and United used a 4-4-2 [...]
Newcastle – Man Utd: 1 – 5
Lyon – Man Utd: 1 – 1
The game pretty much went the way I expected and ended in a draw which I think was a fair result. Lyon started the game well but United soon took control of the game. There were not many chances in the first half. Giggs delivered a great through ball to Rooney who turned away the [...]
Man Utd – Arsenal: 4 – 0
United are through to the quarter-finals in the FA Cup after a humiliating 4-0 win against Premier League leaders Arsenal. There are so many good things to say about United’s display today that I don’t know where to start. Ferguson decided to rest some players but the replacements were simply outstanding.
Fletchter – two goals [...]
Man Utd – Man City: 1 – 2
With all the news coverage and hype about this Manchester derby, I had really high expectations on United. I thought – and I think must United fans did – that the Red Devils would honor the Busby Babes on the pitch today by getting revenge from the last derby defeat.
What the team did I [...]
Tottenham – Man Utd: 1 – 1
To be honest I must agree with sir Alex who thought that United only deserved one point from this game. The first half was a really poor performance from the visitors while Tottenham played really well. You might argue that the opening goal should have disallowed since Jenas hit the ball with the arm. However [...]
Man Utd – Portsmouth: 2 – 0
When I saw the United line-up I thought that this could be a tricky game even though Portsmouth are without a number of important players due to the African Cup of Nations. It did however not take long before the home side showed me I was wrong.
The first half contained excellent attacking football from [...]
FA Cup, Man Utd – Tottenham: 3 – 1
United continued their quest for the Treble on Sunday as they bet Tottenham at Old Trafford by 3 goals to 1. I think it was a quite entertaining game which ended in win for the best team of the day. I must say however that Tottenham made it quite hard for the Red Devils and [...]
Liverpool – Man Utd: 0 – 1
I did have the feeling before the game that United would carry on with their impressive record against Liverpool during the last couple of years. Of course I was however not for one second shure about the three points.It was a really tight game and Liverpool dominated the possession.
I think that United started the game [...]
Roma – Man Utd: 1 – 1
Well I did think that the game become a sort of sleeping pill and I think it really was – if it wasn’t for the fact that United played so many young players. It was really great to see them perform on this high level and they even played some really good football. The two [...]
Man Utd – Derby: 4 – 1
First I would like to congratulate Giggs for making his 100th Premier League goal! What a career this guy has had!I think that this was a rather poor game but considering the poor weather conditions you should perhaps not require great football. United started the game quite slowly and Derby had more possession and created [...]
