Reaction To Celtic - Can You Imagine If Your Team Played Like That At Home?

0
The finish for Scott McDonald's goal was perfect, slotting in to the right place at the right time to get away from the defence, and applying just the right amount of pressure to allow the ball to rise over Ben Foster's head, before dipping under the crossbar. It was a goal worthy of collecting a [.. Click to continue reading...

Giggs: Rooney Can Beat My Record

3
So much of United's history reads like an elaborate script for a movie, ranging from the incredible to the unbelievable. Ryan Giggs' career fits perfectly in to this story, spending 18 years (so far) at the club, winning the Treble, scoring that goal against Arsenal in the FA Cup semi-final replay, and beating Sir Bobby [.

Giggs Explains Why He Had A Go At Phil Neville

1
As Cristiano Ronaldo was scrabbling to stay on his feet, Phil Neville bulldozed in to our winger, winning the ball with one foot, planting his studs in to Ronaldo's knee with the other. Alan Wiley surely would have seemed to have had no option but to send off Wayne Rooney had he been guilty of such [. Click to continue reading...

That Boy Giggsy, He’s Won It Ten Times

1
I was fairly critical of Ryan Giggs in our victory over West Brom last weekend. Whilst not an opinion shared by all, I just didn't think he cut it at all in his new central midfield position. During the first 20 minutes in particular, he couldn't seem to find any of our players with his [...] Click to continue reading...

Ryan Giggs is a player who will be appreciated properly once he retires.

However, Giggsy is a player who [. Click to continue reading...

Manchester United have a history of clinging on to top quality players for the majority and best days of their careers. When looking at the all-time appearances for United, it's incredible to see that three of the top five are still in United's first team.

Theo likes to be kicked + Arsecast 92

0

Happy Friday to you and we'll start with the early team news ahead of tomorrow's game against Bolton.

We've got no new injuries from the Kiev game, despite the Ukrainians trying to obliterate Theo Walcott. I suspect Bolton too will attempt to terminate him but Theo's strong enough to cope. In fact, displaying heretofore unknown masochistic tendencies, he says:

It's a nice feeling when a defender is scared of you straight away.

Good Game Bad Game [vs Manchester United]

2
I have a confession to make: I didn't feel too good before this game. We've been playing too poorly to be in any condition to face United especially without Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres.

I shouldn't have troubled myself because it was pride and determination rather than form that decided this game. Click to continue reading...

Giggs to Man U mates: Get hungry or go home

Ryan Giggs, the stand out of last Sunday's Manchester United match against a very plucky Newcastle in spite of his advancing years (in football terms of course), has set off the alarm for the rest of his Red Devil mates.

According to a report in the Guardian, Giggs told his team mates that they must match Chelsea's hunger if they are to successfully defend their Premier League title. Click to continue reading...

Dear Manchester United, the idea is to finish the ball

Manchester United and Newcastle captured the first draw of the 2008-2009 Premiership season and from the 60th minute on, it was clear that Manchester Untied were never going to break through the Newcastle defense.

Shay Given was extremely confident in goal for the Magpies and the fact that most of Man U's second half chances were either off target or lacking in creativity, certainly helped his cause. Click to continue reading...
