After a rather hectic personal week, I can not say that I am not thrilled to be back here, especially with the start of the Premier League 2009-2010 in front of us. Months of waiting have finally come to an end and starting Sunday at 13.30 we will be able to cheer up our favourite Red Devils again in the hope to win an unprecedented fourth Premier League title in a raw.

Other than last Sunday’s disastrous end to the Community Shield our pre-season has been rather psoitive with only one lost game, in Munich. Continue reading »

Another day, another international rising superstar rumour. This time the rumour kitchen brings us the news of a tabbed offer for the services of Sergio Aguero. SAF is said to have offered £18m PLUS Berbatov to secure the Spanish 21 year old international, who is understood to have a £50m buy-out clause. So far none of these Spanish rumours have been confirmed and to me it seems very doubtful that SAF would sacrifice the mainly by himself highly hyped Bulgarian international.

So far Atletico Madrid have always maintained that Aguero not for sale is so it seems unlikely that a cash plus player deal could be sufficient, especially considered the difference in age between Aguero and Berbatov.

On that note though, I do think that Berba would be a lot more efficient in the Primera Division than he has been for us so far. The more open game in Spain definitely suits his game better than pushing the opponent against the wall and hope to find that small hole and score like we love to do at ManUtd.

Do we want Aguero? Heck yes! He would give every defense a run for their money and soon EPL fans would have forgotten about freckle boy Torres! I would love to see Sergio Aguero be part of our squad but I don’t see it happen.

Interesting words on the possible future role of Michael Owen at ManUtd by former England international Paul Merson.

… he just seems to know where the ball is going. You can tell that by the amount of headed goals he gets, especially for Newcastle. He’s nowhere near the biggest on the pitch, but he still gets there first, because instinctively he knows where to go.

People talk about him losing that crucial yard of pace and it might be true, but I don’t think it will matter at United one bit. Yes, between the halfway line and the edge of the box it has affected his game, but he won’t need that – it’s in the penalty area where they want him.

Michael is not interested in dropping deep and linking up and United will not want him to do that – they already have Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov to do that.

Basically this means we signed a new RVN, only slightly smaller. I am looking forward to this and am sure Michael is the poacher we need in many games. Now Berba will have to prove his work rate though. When last year I thought the perfect triangle up front would be Rooney, Berbatov and Tevez, all three in a free role, alternating their position freely, this season I can perfectly imagine the tandem Rooney – Owen as a lethal recipe for more silverware.

The hunting for the strikers right now for United is going as fast as they can.We are approaching almost any striker of our caliber to play with us.Initially Huntelaar was the man that United favored as striker.But as the time faded his signing almost is looking impossible. Continue reading »

So we had another win at our tour.Pirates were brought down by one goal scored by United’s Lee Martin.There was no more action apart from that after playing couple of tiring matches.Really i won’t be seeing anymore after watching United’s match against Kaizer Chefs.But hey if you want to see the future United you have to follow their games.Read the full report over here.

Yesterday there was a small warning coming from our Cheif Executive,David Gill warning Real for creating the present situation.He added United has already declared that Ronaldo was not for sale since United’s match at Zurich so there’s no point persuading anyone.Not a single bid would be welcomed.Also Fergie has warned Ronaldo that moving to Real is a big mistake and it will be hard for him to get the flair what he has at present.Giving examples of best players who left United in their prime time.

Apart from that Fergie confessed and pointed that Rooney is more like a mid-fielder rather than a natural striker.Rooney as such his not a clinical striker but his more like  play maker.So even if he contributes nothing at Goals we still feel he’s the only man for United.Once he has controlled his aggression he can be suited more comfortably in mid-field roles as its the area where we have maximum tackles.

Its all filling in my head.The players name and still no clear view for which will be United’s next signing.Ever since The Real issue has erupted the transfer table seems so uncomfortable.I mean had FIFA’s boss not interrupted in this matter it won’t have turned out to be a issue.Modern Day slave!!.Thats what you get after standing with a player for years who could have turned into an infamous man after being villain to England’s exit ,a man famous for showing fingers to his home club.Talent will only be talent if its in right area.
