Perhaps now it can be seen as to why the United Reds have been branded one of the most talented and sophisticated lineups assembled to compete in the various European leagues. Most of the players have returned to their mother teams to get a crack at the Euro 2008 qualifiers and a lot of them have come from the United Reds lineup.

Among the names to be heard include that of Wes Brown, Rio Ferdinand, Michael Carrick and Alan Smith are among the top names being mentioned. A fifth player, Wayne Rooney was supposed to be included but is serving suspension.

Their next opponent is Brazil. While Brazil is not expected to be a pushover, the chemistry and alliance of these players who have been playing together under the United Reds is an advantage on its own. Once they take the field at Wembley Stadium, expect the games to rock along with the fans following them intently as the game kicks off.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been reportedly tapped by his country Norway to compete in the coming Euro 2008 qualifiers this coming June. Solskjaer compiled a total of 11 goals, serving notice why he is among the best strikers of the United Reds in the game and an asset that can truly help in Norway’s cause.

This time around, Solskjaer will make sure he does not miss the bus to Norway for the qualifiers. He had previously missed the other tournaments due to various injuries that had made him unable to compete and maintain his effectiveness. But at the way things look at the moment, everything seems to be a go and Solskjaer seems hell bent to make up for the times he was unable to contribute to his country’s cause.

With his inclusion in the Norway lineup, this is expected to boost the moral of the team. He is known to average at least 1 goal in his three international appearances.

For Wayne Rooney, being a part of the United Reds team for the past years and bowing to Chelsea for the elusive Premiership title is a task accomplished after three tries. Nothing beats the feeling of triumph and success and for Rooney, cherishing and finally lifting the Premiership title is the sweetest part of his career.

After going through rough and tough competition, the hard work has finally paid off for Rooney and his Reds team. While there are still forthcoming tournaments that they will be facing, Rooney just like his other teammates would just want to savor the moment for now.

“There’s no greater feeling out there. It’s fantastic. It’s brilliant but really hard to explain. I’m absolutely delighted, I can’t put into words, it’s unbelievable.” “It’s a massive tournament for us to win,” said Wayne.

“We’ve had 38 tough games so to come out on top of that league is great for us. Hopefully we won’t have to wait for another four years to win it again.” - Rooney: No greater feeling

After a forgetful loss to AC Milan, the Reds are back in harness with a much needed victory over the Manchester City. The United Reds defeated the Manchester City 1-0 courtesy of Cristiano Ronaldo’s penalty goal.

It was a path towards the right direction as the painful loss had been a bitter pill to swallow for the powerhouse United Reds ball club. But in the same way that they have rebounded from various setbacks throughout, it was a good statement to prove that the Reds do have what it takes to recover lost ground especially in the ongoing Premiereship title.

Actually, the loss to AC Milan seemed to have awoken a sleeping giant beset by various issues and injuries and Manchester City was unfortunately in the way of the wrath of the Reds. Through the efforts of Cristiano Ronaldo and Michael Carrick, the hard-earned victory is something to put them back on the right track and recover whatever loss they had encountered beforehand.

Many people know the impossible can happen, but even for this famous and decorated ball club, something has to give some time. Already beset with injuries to key players, the United Reds fell short of their goal as they bowed to the superior AC Milan 3-0 in the San Siro.

There was nothing really lost but pride since ordinarily, playing beyond the odds and reaching this stage of the tournament despite lack of player arsenal has been an overachievement in itself. As Sir Alex Ferguson put it:

“We gave away goals very cheaply and at this level you can’t do that. Credit to Milan though, they pressed us really well and were very well prepared. They were certainly sharper and quicker to the ball. They’ve been good winners.”

Truly, United may have played poorly, but credit this to fatigue and lack of player experience in tow. Whatever the excuse may be, it all stands that the United Reds have once again why they are among the elite ball clubs to grace the sport.
