    Manchester United – Robin van Persie and Nothing More

    If you’re a Manchester United fan, you’re probably mostly pleased about what some called a heroic performance, a display of champions, in the snow, hanging on to a Robin van Persie goal for 65 minutes only to concede and equalizer on the last minute of extra time.

    He played for only 24 minutes, but Robin van Persie got to be the only scorer for Manchester United in one of their hardest-earned wins of the season due to the terrible pitch conditions which deprived them from a more free flowing game and because of a very persistent and hard to handle opponents.

  • Manchester United – Robin van Persie Wasted by Bad Defending

    Manchester United – Robin van Persie Wasted by Bad Defending

    At the end of the day, Robin van Persie was probably feeling a bit more angry towards the player that shot a ball straight to his head from point blank range, although he should be angry at the Manchester United defensive crew, which had another bad performance, allowing two points to slip away.

    When he’s healthy, Nemanja Vidic just might be the best central defender in the world. Problem is that the Manchester United player has rarely been fit over the last two seasons, missing almost the entire campaign last year and suffering from another injury early on this year, which makes it quite tempting to sell him for £33 million to Anzhi Makhachkala.

  • Manchester United – Alex Ferguson Not Pleased With 100th Win

    It’s not just Nani being the third player in two weeks to miss a penalty, and it’s not just the fact that almost everyone of his stars and key players was under-performing. Alex Ferguson wasn’t pleased, perhaps even worried, because Manchester United shouldn’t have won their match at home against Galatasaray.

  • Manchester United – Robin Van Persie & Shinji Kagawa Barely Hide Weaknesses

    As Manchester United struggled to their first win of the season, courtesy of a brilliant Robin van Persie debut goal and Shinji Kagawa putting his name on the Old Trafford score-sheet for the first time as well, everything good and bad about how this season could turn out for Alex Ferguson’s men, including a nasty injury to Wayne Rooney, unfolded through the 90 minutes.

  • Best Centre Backs in the World – 2012 Edition

    Nemanja Vidic being out for the season doesn’t mean we think any less of him, being ranked among Pique, Puyol, Chiellini, Hummels, Thiago Silva and Chiellini as one of the best Centre Back in the world heading into 2012.

  • Barcelona vs Manchester United – Things to Remember Before the Final

    Two years later, a little older, a bit different, Manchester United and Barcelona go head to head again, both gunning for their Fourth Champions League title. Alex Ferguson, with his under fire team but another title in his stuffed cabinet despite the criticism against Pep Guardiola and his own dream team led by the never ceasing to amaze Lionel Messi.

  • On Alex Ferguson Leading Manchester United to Their 19th League Title

    They hardly won away from home, they didn’t win any critic-love, they didn’t play really well. Still, Alex Ferguson had just enough from his guys (especially Vidic, Hernandez and Nani) and not enough from Chelsea and Arsenal to lead United (nearly) to their 19th league title.
