  • Adnan Januzaj is The Biggest Diver Right Now in the Premier League

    Adnan Januzaj is The Biggest Diver Right Now in the Premier League

    As part of some pregame psychology, Mark Hughes decided to hit out at Adnan Januzaj for building a reputation as a dirty diver, something he’ll need to walk away from if he’s to become a great player. Even though the comment is meant to provoke and put pressure on the officials as Stoke and Manchester United meet to play in the League Cup quarterfinals, he’s got it quite right when it comes to the young Belgian player.

  • Manchester United Finally Finding The Right Lineup?

    Manchester United Finally Finding The Right Lineup?

    A 1-0 win over Shakhtar Donetsk isn’t what will take the pressure off of David Moyes or suddenly turn Manchester United into a machine that will run off on the Premier League, but a lineup and formation used by David Moyes late in the match, which had Robin van Persie, Wayne Rooney, Shinji Kagawa and Adnan Januzaj all playing together might be a partial answer to the team’s problems in the league.

  • Adnan Januzaj & Chicharito Continue the Manchester United Diving Tradition

    Adnan Januzaj & Chicharito Continue the Manchester United Diving Tradition

    Even with Ashley Young out of the lineup, there doesn’t seem to be any cease to the proud diving tradition he established at Manchester United, with Javier Hernandez and Adnan Januzaj trying to emulate the master in the loss to Manchester United, without really succeeding.

  • Manchester United – David Moyes is in Crisis Mode

    Manchester United – David Moyes is in Crisis Mode

    Talking of transition and fan support is great, but there comes a point where you can’t lie and hide behind players anymore. Manchester United knew that the first season with David Moyes wasn’t going to be smooth sailing, but no one expected a catastrophic start to the season such as this, with Adnan Januzaj thrust into a bigger role than he’s actually ready for while Robin van Persie comes back from injury too soon for his own good and plays 90 minutes out of position.

  • Manchester United – David Moyes Has to Stop Blaming Luck

    Manchester United – David Moyes Has to Stop Blaming Luck

    No one expected for David Moyes to have an easy first season at the helm as Manchester United manager. However, no one expected it to be this bad. What’s more frustrating for those who have the club’s best interest in mind is that there’s no sign of improvement, consistency or some sort of instilling football philosophy. David Moyes is diverting attention from himself to the players, mentioning luck and other things as the culprits in the bad results, but it’s hard to deny he has a huge part in everything that’s going on.

  • Manchester United – Adnan Januzaj The Wind Behind Wayne Rooney & Robin van Persie

    Manchester United – Adnan Januzaj The Wind Behind Wayne Rooney & Robin van Persie

    Things are starting to look better for Manchester United as they win consecutive league matches, with most of the newly found success having to do with Adnan Januzaj playing a lot better than any 18-year old should, being the driving force behind Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie who both got on the scoresheet in a match that was ever only 22 minutes after it began.

  • Manchester United – Adnan Januzaj Proves He’s a Real Star

    Manchester United – Adnan Januzaj Proves He’s a Real Star

    Among the few things that David Moyes has managed to get right early in his tenure as Manchester United manager is the belief in Adnan Januzaj, who doesn’t look like your ordinary wonderkid, full of potential but also of youthful faults. At 18, the Belgian winger seems quite prepared to be a big-time playmaker for the club, playing in a mature and calm way that’s really rare for a teenager taking his first steps on the football pitch.

  • Manchester United – Chicharito and Shinji Kagawa Deserve Better

    Manchester United – Chicharito and Shinji Kagawa Deserve Better

    Maybe this is the match that will make David Moyes understand some thing about this Manchester United team it has taken him too long to. Shinji Kagawa isn’t a left winger, no matter how much his manager wants him to be. Javier Hernandez needs to be on the pitch in those final moments and probably more. His kind of scoring ability is something that just can’t be taught.

  • Manchester United – Adnan Januzaj Can’t be the Best Player

    Manchester United – Adnan Januzaj Can’t be the Best Player

    The David Moyes crisis becomes worse, as his Manchester Untied lacks confidence, courage and the ability to actually finish off matches that should be automatic three points for them, especially at home. While Adnan Januzaj continues being the right choice and the official fresh maker for the team, the awful signing of Marouane Fellaini is cancelling out any positives there are to be drawn from another disappointment.

  • Adnan Januzaj – Between Belgium, Albania and Serbia

    Adnan Januzaj – Between Belgium, Albania and Serbia

    It’s quite incredible to think Adnan Januzaj has played only five professional matches so far in his career for Manchester United, but at the young age of 18, he’s the subject of what seems to be an intensifying war between football associations, as Belgium, Albania, Serbia and even England, although he really hasn’t done that much in his career.
