Thank You for Everything Kerry

1
The Wizards loss to the Crew on Saturday night brought the end to the career of one of the greatest Wizards players in history, Kerry Zavagnin. Zavagnin didn't have the flashy stats of the likes of Preki or the name recognition of Tony Meola, but he will certainly go down as one of the greatest in team history. Click to continue reading...

Wayne Rooney’s Record Should Be Better

1
Wayne Rooney is enjoying fabulous form for Manchester United, as he usually he does during this time of year. Whilst his goals are an obvious indicator of his great form, and what is picked up in the press, it's his all-round game which I'm most impressed with. He's at the centre of everything, the Midas [.

Wizards Can Clinch Playoff Spot this Week

1
With some help this week, the Wizards can clinch a playoff spot for the second straight year. To get into the playoffs, the most important thing for the Wizards is to win Saturday against San Jose. That's not all that has to happen, though, as the Wizards will need some help from other results to get into the playoffs. Click to continue reading...

Ok ok, 'we don't need stats to prove that' I hear you cry, and I agree with you. We can just look at our trophy cabinet if clarification of our greatness is required, but go with me on this one.

Manchester IS Red… Even City Fans Agree

1
It's funny how this myth goes around that Manchester is a City supporting location. Mancunians opt to support the blues, whilst United fans claim their fanbase from the home counties. Of course, this is perfect logic, isn't it? One of the most widely supported clubs in the World couldn't possible appeal to people from Manchester, [. Click to continue reading...

Well That’s More Like It… Our Fixtures Compared to Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool

1
There we have it, United's first good performance of the season matched with the goals it deserves. United beat Aalborg 3-0 away from home, converting three of the eight chances on goal, which certainly beats the one goal from open play in sixteen shots on target against Bolton. This is more like it. Click to continue reading...

Goodbye Ryan McMahen, We Hardly Knew Ye

6
With the trade yesterday for Abe Thompson, the Wizards had to make room on their senior roster for him. To make room, the Wizards waived 3rd year midfielder, Ryan McMahen. Most of you are probably saying "Who?", well I'm going to give you some information on what McMahen's been doing with us the past almost 3 years. Click to continue reading...

United Will Finish 2nd, Chelsea Will Finish 1st

3
Last season, United were some way short of what I'd expect of a team filled with the ability it has. Despite adding Owen Hargreaves, Carlos Tevez, Anderson and Nani to what was already a Championship winning side, we finished 2 points behind our total from the season before. Even with all the goals Ronaldo scored, [. Click to continue reading...

Had John Terry Not Slipped, United Wouldn’t Have Won The European Cup

9
If I got a pound for every time I read rival fans on this blog write, "United only won the European Cup because John Terry slipped", I'd be a very rich man indeed. As is part and parcel of football support in this country, your success will always be undermined by your rivals. I remember distinctly [. Click to continue reading...

United At Their Peak? Is Chelsea’s Terry Really That Thick?

Whatever happens in the future, whether we end up like Leeds or simply can't hack it at the top once Sir Alex Ferguson leaves, whether Roman Abramovich hires all the best coaches in the World or spends £100s of millions on the greatest players to ensure superiority in England and Europe, John Terry will always [.

“Where Will All The Goals Come From?” Ruud… now Ronaldo

1
United had just finished second in the Premiership and won the League Cup. It was our most successful season since winning the title in 2003, and whilst still some way off our high expectations, at least we could finally believe we were getting there. However, our top scorer, Ruud van Nistelrooy, was certainly on the way [. Click to continue reading...

It’s Chealsea’s ‘Chopper’ Talking Out Of His Backside…Not Fergie!

Sir Alex Ferguson clearly put a few Chelsea noses out of joint with his recent comments about their ageing squad. Whilst Scolari managed to resist taking the bait, Ron 'Chopper' Harris couldn't help himself. He launched a scathing attack on our boss, claiming that Ferguson was 'talking out of his backside'.

Stats To Prove Fergie’s Right…Chelsea’s Aging Squad No Concern For Us

Do you remember how painful football was for us United brats not so long ago? After years of having our pick of the trophies, suddenly another club came in to the frame, and they appeared impossible to compete with. They were like a machine, playing in a way we'd never seen United perform. No, they [. Click to continue reading...

"Wayne Rooney scores for Manchester United... and it's not the last time you'll hear that," said the commentator, as Rooney put away the first of three goals in his United debut against Fenerbahce in the Champions League.

Chelsea’s Scolari: United Aren’t A One Man Team

What’s So Special About Huntelaar and Do We Need Him?

20
Since selling Ruud van Nistelrooy in 2006, we have failed to bring in an out and out striker to replace him. Coupled with Louis Saha's injuries, United have found themselves playing a different style of football to what they'd played for years, particularly when Ruud had been in the team. Basically, our wingers bombed down [. Click to continue reading...
