Arsenal to Manchester United – Robin van Persie Made the Perfect Choice
Arsene Wenger once said that if he’d had the talents he’s been grooming over the years this season, things would have been different. But talents don’t want to stay for promise after promise, preferring more money and a lot more ambition. Robin van Persie chose, along with Arsenal, Manchester United, and didn’t have to look backwards even for a single second.

Manchester United – Alex Ferguson Not Playing to Win
Even if you promise real hard, it’s hard to motivate yourself and your players to give a true effort when there’s nothing on the line. Robin van Persie only has his own goals to play for, while Wayne Rooney hardly got a whiff of a chance. Alex Ferguson sent his team out only to prevent a loss, but could hardly see and get any good football from them all match long, eventually brought to life thanks to his own players getting sent off.

Manchester United – Wayne Rooney on Everyone’s Mind
Without anything to be chasing, it’s all about next season, transfer rumors and speculations for Manchester United. Wayne Rooney seems to be the most news-making name at the moment, as Alex Ferguson, as always, tries to calm the waters beating around the ship when it comes to the England international’s future.

Manchester United – Robin van Persie Was the Only One Interested
Boredom and motivation is something Manchester United have been battling with, funny to say, for over a month now, with the Premier League title well secured for quite some time. Robin van Persie, making a return to a stadium he played at for eight seasons, against a hostile crowd, was the only one with a real reason to put on his best.

Chelsea FC – Manager Stability Needed
The only thing separating Manchester United and Chelsea during the Roman Abramovich era is the man on the bench. While Manchester United have had the same manager at the same seat during those 10 seasons, Chelsea have been through nine of them, and Rafa Benitez, the most recent one, isn’t going to stay once this season is over.

Manchester United – Only Alex Ferguson Proud of Title
We want our champions to be better than what Manchester United have given us this season, although Alex Ferguson keeps telling us how proud he is of the team that consists of Robin van Persie, Shinji Kagawa and Wayne Rooney, that didn’t make it past the Champions League knockout stage but claimed the Premier League title with a remarkable run of scores and without any competition whatsoever.

Manchester United – Robin van Persie Finds Scoring Touch in Perfect Timing
It wasn’t the first hat-trick for Robin van Persie in his young Manchester United career, but it was probably a little more special than his first one at the beginning of the season, when everything about Manchester United seemed to be about his scoring touch. It’s been a rough couple of months for the Dutch striker, but he has regained his scoring touch just in time to secure a 20th championship for his club, and a first one for him personally.

Manchester United – Javier Hernandez & Rio Ferdinand Aren’t Leaving
Don’t believe anyone yet expect anything is a common saying about many subjects, including the world of football and its abundance of transfer rumors. While Manchester United will probably be looking for new and expensive strikers and centre backs during the summer, Alex Ferguson is adamant that both Chicharito and Rio Ferdinand, opposed to the constant ramblings suggesting their departure, aren’t leaving the club anytime soon.

Manchester United – Wayne Rooney Slowly Pushed Out of the Club
You feel it in the air when you watch Manchester United matches. Despite the walk-over title run, things are far from perfect in Sir Alex’s kingdom, who is still trying to find his way to make his team as good as those foreigners who keep beating him on the way to the Champions League. It sounder ridiculous before, but maybe selling Wayne Rooney is the best way to move forward.

Manchester United – Robin van Persie Enjoys Late Wake Up Call
When you don’t score goals, you take what you get, and as it happens, Manchester United usually get favors from referees and linesman, giving Robin van Persie a chance not only to score his second goal in so many matches, something we forgot he can do, but also salvage a draw to help keep the pressure off of them, while Shinji Kagawa enjoyed one of his better games for the Red Devils.
