It seems like decade for my last post to arrive here.But during that time United hasn’t shown any sign of improvement.Guys come on.Treat us with a good Happy New year eve.We need a big in.
This whole month has been dreadful to us.If u look at table,it won’t look that bad,but theoritically we could have been three points clear if we could have those 0-0 draws.
United’s past 3 matches have been 1-0 victories all look scary.The last match with Stoke itself was a bad one.Had they not been down to 10 men United might be sweating real bad.So wat do we have today ?
Middlesbrough at Home.Its a new year feast if you look at their current form.They haven’t won in last 6 matches and shares a 100% defeat record at home.I won’t see any problem why United can’t win.Its an easy match and we have a fit squad.
We still have 3 games in hand and Liverpool are only 10 points away.Win in all three leaves the difference to 1 point.
Match starts at 130 IST,1800 GMT and 300ET.
Go United !!

Rooney and Evra red carded,Berba,Carrick,Ferdi and Ronaldo side-lined with injury,match away at White lane and our terrible form going with Draws at away .I was thinking it would be more like refreshing the scoreline after watching Liverpool consistent wins and its usually these times when team starts to lose its pace.Honestly we were out of luck on this situation.A few good men was all that was needed!!

Its mid-week champions league game that we are facing at OT.Already being qualified through the group stage,United will be hardly pressurized with match also to add that match is being played at home.
Our last meeting with the danish team recorded an easy 3-0 victory.Aalborg though is playing for their pride which will cause United to sweat more than the last encounter. Continue reading »

Long time no SEE :P Yea i was out with a bad bad fever and was left with no EPSN access.I managed missed all matches since my last post game which made my sickness even worse.
Hopefully i am back and United’s last game was at home.Reading about our last 5 goal victory over Rovers i was expecting to treat Sunderland the same.
But it just wasn’t our day.Countless attack at Sunderland’s wall and infinite number of moves,hardly manage to get the ball to the post.
There were times when it was all more frustrating than goalless strikes.Ronaldo’s bitchiness continued in this match too and it now looks he has lost his flair.His bad play was also one of the reasons for me to lose interest in match. Continue reading »

Missing my past reviews(pending work),i couldn’t stop myself of writing this one.Losing to Arsenal last week this was quite a fustration that was taken out by our team.This match was by far the best that United played this month.5 goals banged and a beauties by newbies.What else do u want.
The dominance and experienced United were already up within minutes of the game.Ronaldo’s early zig-zag free-kick took United ahead in 4 minutes.The veteran Sorenson was left as a mere spectator which he only managed to caress the ball with his finger tips.Ronaldo reaching is 100th goal and a beauty goal to accomplish that.Second late in at the end of first half with the bigfoot Carrick pounding over Stoke with his left foot.United 2 goals ahead and a break for Orange.I won’t be ellobarating more on how the goals are scored as i assume the game’s been watched by all of u.Well The second half was no different. Stoke got 3 more bangings one each from Ronaldo,Berba and Welbeck sealed United’s win.
Now with the players.
The team was perfect by far for United.No Rooney and no Ferdinand but still it was best at the moment.
Park and Ronaldo both playing hell of a time at flanks.Though Ronaldo was being clumsy and losing ball at times he balanced it with is low-cut passes and delicate flicks.
Park this season is one of the players who has aced in improvements.He still needs consistent plays to retain is form time to time.
Fletcher and Carrick were more than brilliant yesterday.Maturity with Fletcher as a mid-field was seen in this game.He was moving more like Scholes in his young days.this made more room for Carrick to leap ahead.The combination of Fletcher-Carrick is best at the moment.
The defense was commanding.Even without Ferdinand things never looked uneasy.Evans was playing confident as always and the remaining three got nothing wrong.
Evans and Welbeck both were fantasic and bright future stars of United.Recommended that they should atleast be given a time of 5 years to reach their top form.Like with Rooney when Fergie spoted him Moyes failed to do so.
The day was perfect for United but still we need 3-4 games to boost our selves to top.
United are 8 points behind Liverpool and many shitty games coming along.The real test of Fergie will now start with rotating players when team is at improving at each level.

A victory could have set us through the stages but a fair result seeing what Ferguson picked for the match.Celtic as such at home are not as poor as they are on away fixtures.There last 10 games at home have been fairly profitable and also keeping in mind which the players we were playing in.
As thought Celtic turned out to be different.Wasn’t the same Celtic that we saw at OT.United though were confident of maintaining clean sheet first blow was from Celtic side.Poor positioning by our new Goalie,Foster allowed Mc Donald to chip the ball into the corner.A beautiful crafted goal by Celtic however u can give credits to keeper too.
United didnt look any sort of different after conceding goal so early.The cheeky play was still there however improvements was seen in set pieces.As such the later game went on with “Covering the post” strategy as Celtic walled their 11 men in front of their poles.
The game progressed and was approaching the time.Ferguson then decided to pick up his strongest brute force and brought Rooney and Berba.No difference either as Celtic had a mindset of not taking or allowing any lead.
Just as things were looking over for United,Ronaldo magic sparked everyone’s faces.A long shot fired from Ronaldo left Celtic’s keeper dazzled while he only managed to get his hand in between the ball.The power and curl was so much that even the rebound didn’t help the ball to bounce far.Giggs then took the ball scoring for United leveling United.A well deserved goal as we worked very hard of this one.I assumed it to be an easy one but turned out way different.
Now its time to get Gooners!!

Head start by United overshadowed by phyiscal Everton as we come home with a solitary point.
Totally excited and expecting United’s win,i sat around with my gang to watch this game.The start was great and i couldn’t have expected it to go any better.United’s kick-off was better than usual and we were in total domination over the homie.
The gorgeous play continued and we got ourselves first one score list.The first goal came after our predominant play and goal was scored by two brilliant players who went on playing outstanding than any other.Giggs neat pass found Fletcher accurately and the goal was scored at 21st minutes.I couldn’t have asked better for Fletcher and the way he scored.Masterpiece!!
First half went on with similar fashion though no goals scored the expection for second half was even more.But as the whistle blew to start second period the same United and same Everton were no more.David Moyes injected his boys more physical and alert “tonic doze”while Fergie only managed to say think about subs. in those 5 minutes.
The game now burst into life as both teams went on more aggresively and u could expect sounds of cracks of bones any moment.The predominance was Everton was taking control of the game as it was proved by Rooney and Berba’s marking.They hardly were left with any space and thats what locked United’s flow.Another reason to United’s lagging moves was Ronaldo.He was by far the worst player on the field for those 45 minutes.Not only he kept showing his ball losing ability but was creating more narrow space for team mates by running in.Ronaldo kept running like a bitch whole time and Fergie for once never thought of replacing him.May be it was against his pride or our staff enjoyed him running in fast motion.
A total Fustrated Ronaldo then kept creating scenes by tickling referee for every Everton foul and bitch who was demanding for more money.This all was creating fustration on Everton and thats when someone finally decided to give Ronny some real treatment.Neville crashed into Ronaldo with a bad challenge who then extracted more of Ronaldo’s acting skill.He rolled on ground couple of times and his whimming made him look like a sissy girl and Phil the one spanking him.The atmosphere spoiled and things now had to be more bad for both.
But all this was taken to Everton’s advantage as our defenders went to cold feet.The tension was seen and it had to happen with United.Ferdinand made awful mistakes and Brown regularly bullied by Arteta.Vidic also was playing like a bitch in United’s defense andfinally the nutshell had to break.
Phil Neville’s corner nicely scored by by Fellaini got Everton equalized and United embarassed.
Fergie then i guess saw some enlightment and brought United’s first substitution that came on as Anderson who replaced Park.Ronaldo could have gone off if he were not Ronaldo but Fergie didn’t want to touch the golden boy and moved the persevering Park out.A bad desicion which could have turned the game.
Things were going wrong and it was Rooney’s turn to get in the list of bad boys.Rooney made things worse as he kissed his badge and encouraged the riots on both bays.Though Fergie did act quickly removing him and Nani was brought in.Bad move to do by a total footballer.
Things never looked to come back.United had done it all.The attitude changed and we turned into villianous the heroic.Last substitution came in place of Tevez but that was too late.
United settled for a single point and losing pride at Everton.A sick game ended with fitting result.

Some worthy that we got from Bolton fixture.Running in bottom half after playing almost 5 matches was pretty shameful for United.These are times when United are seen running close under 1st or 2nd spot.But anyways now moving to Upper half with League Runners there’s still hope that we can pull out some thing this season again.

A well earned and deserving win.Playing with majority reserves team lads the result was quite brilliant showing how bright is our future.Possebon,Welbeck and Rafael all three remained exceptional for the game.
The team was a blend of young players with experienced veterans which potraited how exactly United plays.No Rooney or Ferdinand but still we looked much stronger than ever.The game was well controlled by our teammates for majority of time.A goal came around at 25 minutes for United after Ronaldo opening is account with a header on Giggs cross.Quite similar fashion to the last goal he scored against Chelsea at UCL finals.
