May 29, 2007 By red devil

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.

For Sir Alex Ferguson, obtaining the Champions League Cup is the next stop for the United Reds. While they fell short due to injuries to a couple of their players, it is obvious that the team is headed in that direction and only time will tell. After talks of impending player transfers coming their way and leaving enough time for the healing period to its key players, it will be all systems go in the coming months as the United Reds will be once again in harness.

The Reds have proven to be a team to reckon with despite the various obstacles that the team has faced. Getting that far with what they have is an accomplishment that Ferguson has readily appreciated and lauded. One can just think of what would become of the Reds team once all players are up and about. A scary thought for their opponents and a wondrous one for Ferguson and company.

Guard of Honour Gesture Lauded by Brown

May 10, 2007 By red devil

In the same way that Chelsea experienced the same ovation for their brave effort in 2005, the same was now in turn given to the United Reds in their 0-0 standoff with Chelsea at the Stamford Bridge Pitch. It is a fact that the Reds are ailing and paying tribute to the heroic efforts by the left players emphasizing on team play lead by Wes Brown, there is nothing better than to receive due recognition for the efforts of the remaining players of the powerhouse club.

Wes Brown

Defense was the name of the game between the match of the Reds and Chelsea and this was typified as both failed to score a goal for the tight defense both teams applied. Chelsea had a change to score a goal in the end game, but thanks to the combined efforts of the Reds’ players, they were able to hold off any offensive from Chelsea.

“It was a difficult game for us,” he added. “Both sides didn’t play their strongest teams, but we have come out with a respectable draw.

“It was [a strange game]. There was a few lads in from the reserves and some players played out of position. We’ve not played together all season, so to come to Chelsea we had to play well. I thought we relly stuck together.

“Chelsea put a lot of pressure on us towards the end of the game. It looked like they might nick a goal at the end, but we managed to hold on and kept on defending.” –Wes Brown: Wes praises Blues gesture
