United Youngster vs Arsenal Youngster, Which One is The Best?
We still have very good young players like Frazier Campbell, Johnny Evans, Danny Welbeck, Da Silva Twins, Possebon and more. However if we look at Arsenal, they have a lot of young player and looks very promising. The latest result is in the carling cup, when they beat Wigan. The average age of the Arsenal team at that match was 19, they also put 16 years old players in there.
Is this mean, the future will be on their side not our side? The good thing is our young player have a role model or a mentor, the player like Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville, Edwin van Der Sar and so on still in the team and ready to help and give a good example for the youngsters. In Arsenal, they don't have many older player to lead them.
I hope in the future our youngster could prove, they are better than Arsenal youth and United will still the champion in the future

United beat Boro in Carling Cup
This time the squad mixed between youth & veteran player, some of the debutant are Ben Amos and Danny Wellbeck.
With this result, I just hope the future of United will be bright. The upset news from this game was the injury of Possebon. So far there are no further news about the injury. Hope it is not serious, coz this lad has a bright future...

CL: Our title defend start here
The schedule this year are really bad... but we can't blame the schedule, we need to perform and win the game.
In this game we will miss Carrick and maybe Berbatov and Evra, the good news is (if this is good for you) Cristiano Ronaldo will play, maybe not for 90 minutes but will help our attack.
Come on United... after lost against Zenit and Liverpool, we must start win again.
Friday, September 5, 2008
Got Berbatov... now what?
Berbatov price, more than 30 million pound. Is it worthed? time will tell. I hope this transaction can improve our goal scoring record this season. After few games without a goal from our strikers surely we hope Berbatov can score a lot of goals for us.
The premier league will start again next week, lets hope with Berbatov in, United can be the champions again.

Man Utd failed in UEFA Supercup

Are we ready for a new season?
After I saw the match, some question arise.... Do this team ready for a new season? Do we need a new signing?
Ok, Man Utd won that match and so many chances created but in the end the result still 0 - 0 and we need penalty shooutout to won it. You can say we don't have Rooney, Saha or Ronaldo but in the middle of the campaign, those players could be unavailable again...
I really think, Man Utd need more striker... a real striker not second striker. Rooney and Tevez play deep, so we need someone that could finish it. On the match again Portsmouth, I saw Tevez play deep (it is good though) and no one in front could finish the pass into goal, even sometimes no one in the middle to receive the ball.
If we want to win both trophies again, plus FA cup will be hard to resist.. I really think we should add a new signing before start of the season. Maybe full back and striker... we already have many choices in the middle and goalkeeper.
Glory Man Utd!

Queiroz Left United for Portugal
This is his statement taken from manutd.com:
"It is with a very heavy heart that today I leave the greatest football club in the world after five fantastic years. This has been a special period in my life both personally and professionally. I have been so lucky to have had the opportunity to work in first class facilities with a staff team who are at the top of their profession.
"Our players on and off the pitch make the difference and to them also I owe a great deal of gratitude for their hard work, professionalism and most of all their performances. I feel we have in place the basis for the next generation to follow in the tradition of such world class players as Sir Bobby Charlton and George Best.
"Of course our success as a family is based on strong leadership and in The Glazer Family, The Board, David Gill and not least of all Sir Alex Ferguson we have the support and skills to stay at the top. To Sir Alex, I thank him for his faith in me and his knowledge, spirit and desire from which I will take strength and have confidence in my new role.
"I will forever be a fan and admirer of the club and also thankful that I had the opportunity to be part of such a great institution, a vast organisation but with a unique feeling of family and community. This leads me finally to our fans - local, national and international. I thank them for their fantastic support and encouragement in my time at the club, always there when we need them to support us both home and away in huge numbers.
"In conclusion I wish everyone at our club, continued success in the years to come and to continue to enjoy a brand of exciting, attractive and winning football, admired and respected the world over."
We will miss him and wish him good luck.

Which player should we sign this summer?
Man Utd fans already aware that we need to buy a right back and striker... well if Ronaldo move out then another winger. Is there any player that cross in your mind?
For me, I love to see Benzema in United shirt but maybe it is impossible for now. Wesley Sneijder also a good addition if Ronaldo move out. However after I saw Russia beat Holland in Euro 2008, I think Arshavin also very good.
Come on... Manchester United Mania.. give your opinions..

Finally. First Transfer This Summer
After failed to sign Ramsey, lets hope this new signing will be a good investment. I want to see this guy played for Man Utd first team. Please don't let him become like Rossi or Pique. Both are young and very talented but in the end we can't see them in action at first team.
United Youth policy should get improvement, that is why Ramsey choose Arsenal than United. Wenger always give their young player an opportunity to shine. We did that before, so why don't do it again right now?

Ramsey snub United - News Update
Okay.. Come on United, search more new talents and bring them to Old Trafford

Cristiano Ronaldo Transfer Saga
Frankly Speaking, I don't want Ronaldo to move from United. We can achieves many trophies with him in the team, however after all the news and his approach about this matter I think he better move to Madrid. The latest news I read at goal.com that he already agreed personal term with Madrid, now depends on how much Manchester United price.
Personally I think Ronaldo has become arrogant, he had very good season this year, in England and in Europe and he knew Madrid wants to buy him and will offer a lot of money. He forgot that Man Utd, in this case all staffs, players, fans and the manager help him a lot since he came to united. When he came, he only 18 years old and nobody knows him and after the world cup incident, all the Man Utd fans, players and manager support him. Man Utd has done a lot in his career.
I am not talking about loyalty here, we can push him to stay here forever but at least he can obey the contract that he signed a year ago. He still have a contract until 2012, I mean if he doesn't want to play for Manchester anymore why he extended his contract last year?
Truly, as a United fans I become do not like him, well for me personally Ryan Giggs is still much better player than him. People may say it's only a rumor, Ronald will stay with Man Utd, if that the case I will say why he didn't say I stay in United, period. Don't say maybe or I don't now, etc.
I just remembered a case of Anelka, after a season that really good at Arsenal he become so arrogant and asked to move. The same thing with Cassano from Italy. Both still young and thought they are the best in the world and many clubs wants them.. you saw the result already, both player were a flop at their new clubs and they fell down to the bottom and need to climb up again slowly. This could be the case of Ronaldo.
Lastly I think it's better if Ronaldo just left, if he stays the team could become disharmony and if Madrid really wants to pay 100 million Euros, we can use that money to buy another player that equal or even better than Ronaldo and WANTS to play for Manchester United.

Transfer News : Man Utd signs Aaron Ramsey
Well, I don't really know about this youngster. From what I read and look the clubs that after him, it looks like a great buy.. I only heard that this guy is one of best talent in English football. He plays in midfield and only 17 years old.
Is there anyone can tell me how good this guy? I hope we have another Welsh Wizard.
Some data about Aaron Ramsey:
Full name | Aaron James Ramsey |
Date of birth | December 26, 1990 |
Birthplace | Caerphilly, Wales |
Nationality | Welsh |
Height | 178 cms |
UPDATE
Ramsey still not signed for United, right now Cardiff accepted three offers for this lad from United, Arsenal and Everton.
Although his manager at Cardiff and Wales recommend him to join United, we still need to wait his decision.. probably next week. Just hope he choose United.
Patrice Evra extend his contract
This is great news for Man Utd fans, we already secured Rio, Carrick, Brown and now Evra. Excellent. Only one thing left though.. it is Ronaldo. Well, if he cannot commit his future for United, just let him go, especially if Real Madrid want to pay very high for him. We can use the money to buy another player that not only good but wants to play for United.

Transfer News: Pique Left United
Well, I'm a bit disappointed hear this news. Pique is an excellent defender. He is very good prospect for the future. I know, at this moment Vidic and Ferdinand play really well together, but we need to consider the future. There was a rumor Johnny Evans will move permanently with Sunderland, if this is true then we lost two young defender that are very good prospect.
I am happy we buy good players, but I prefer we build team with young player like before with the cheap price. Right now, although I hate to say it, I prefer Arsene Wenger way in Arsenal. He bought cheap young player with very good prospect.... like the old United did in the past.
Sunday, May 25, 2008
Two youngster left Old Trafford
Goalkeeper Tom Heaton will spend on loan next season at Cardiff City and Kieran Lee will move permanently to Oldham Athletic.
We wish them good luck.

Rio Ferdinand signs new deal
Another news maybe will make United Fans worry, Cristiano Ronaldo cannot guarantee his future in Old Trafford. He signed a new deal last April and he should be at Manchester until 2012. However He said that he he will consider his United future after the final.
I don't understand him, before he said Man Utd is the right club for him and he wants to stay, now he said that his dream are to play in Spain and don't know his future although he is happy at Manchester. Just hope he will stay, at least until his contract end.

1 of 2 match to our 17th league title
I hope the win against Barca can make the player focus and fight for the last two games. I heard the news that Rooney maybe absent for the last two games, but if the player perform to their best we can beat West Ham and Wigan easily. Let's hope that our Man Utd can get the 17th Title, One more to match Liverpool :)
Come on Manchester United.

Chelsea again - Moscow here we come
So Manchester United will meet Chelsea again in Moscow. Personally I prefer Manchester United meet Liverpool on final, simply because we have better result against Liverpool. However if we want to be the best in the world, doesn't matter whoever our opponent is, we just need to beat them.
Manchester United already book a place in the final, so it is important to concentrate on the premier league now. Only two more games and we should win both if we want to win the premier league too.
Come on Reds... Glorry Glorry Manchester United!

Lost Against Chelsea --- Is it The End?
The last two games are against West Ham at home and against Wigan away. We lost three times against West Ham in the last three matches and Wigan proofed hard to beat at their home.
I just hope we can move on from this lost and get two wins to become champions...
Come on... Manchester United

Barcelona - Man Utd 1st Semi Result (0-0)
First leg champions league between Manchester United and Barcelona is over. The final result is a draw (0-0).
Personally I am disappointed with the way Man utd play. Barcelona played some good football and actually they deserve to win. From my point of view, Man Utd play defensive and I don't like it. Man Utd should play attacking football.
I know the strategy they using was the same against Roma, tight defense and counter attack. However lost the ball easily in the middle, miss passing and so on, I almost cannot watch it. Man..., in 90 minutes Barcelona keep attacking and make me worry. Messi particularly play very well, Yaya Toure also play some good football. In statistics, Barcelona play much much better than us.
The good thing for Man Utd is we didn't concede a goal. Defensive players and the goalkeeper play very good. Ronaldo and Rooney in other hand not in their good form. I think the best player for us is Rio Ferdinand. Paul Scholes also play a good game.
We should gone up front in first half, unfortunately Ronaldo miss a penalty and didn't get the second one. I just hope in 6 days at Old Trafford we can win the game but before that beat Chelsea and make us premier league champion.

Man Utd - Barcelona (first round)
Today we have the first leg of champions league against Barcelona at Nou Camp. The team went to Barcelona with full strength. If I'm not mistaken we only miss Louis Saha, even Fletcher and Gary are in the team that go to Barcelona.
I really hope we can get good result in there. A win is fantastic, but draw is enough as long as we score away goal. Barcelona will be the real test for Manchester United. Sir Alex and many people said this is the best team in Champions League, now we need to proof that. Our first obstacle is Barcelona and after that beat Liverpool or Chelsea in the final.
Actually, I am not worry about Barcelona. They are not in the best condition this year, many problems arise. They also miss Ronaldinho, one thing we must aware is Messi back in the team. Today he is Barca's soul. Beside him, I think we must watch Bojan. Since broke the first team, he was really dangerous in front and scored some good goals. They also have many good players, but they will miss their captain. It must affect their defense.
Our defense this year is really good, if they play like that so our chance to progress to final is really big. Both team are attacking minded, it should be an open game and could get many goals here.
Go Manchester United.... come on Man Utd fans... give your support, this year is our year. Believe that!!

New to you (Rodrigo Possebon)
First player I want to put it here is our new signing in January, Rodrigo Possebon from Brazil.
Birthdate : 13 February 1989
Birthplace : Sapucaia do Sul, Brazil
Position : Midfielder
Joined united : 31 January 2008
Elegant and composed in possession but full of energy, Rodrigo Possebon is an archetypal box-to-box midfielder.
He has Italian passport that make him don't need a work permit. Since his arrival he made very good impressions
The youngster's neat performance carried some promise, leading Academy Manager Brian McClair to admit: "It looks as if he's got quite a bit of talent."
Former Reds defender Arthur Albiston said "Rodrigo will progress to the first team next year. He’s very elegant, has a great touch on the ball and a decent physique."
Let's hope the lad can progress well and become our key player in the future
Chelsea vs Wigan (1-1)
Thanks to Steve Bruce and his squad, they don't gave up 'till the end. Right now I hope Chelsea lost or at least draw against Everton. This time I hope Phillip Neville can do that :) Of course we still have to win against Blackburn whatever the result.
I just love if we can beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and get the premiership title there, they did once at Old Trafford, so I hope this time ours.
Monday, April 14, 2008
Yess!!! Man Utd won against Arsenal
Oh man, I love this.... just hope Chelsea slip tomorrow :) it make my day become more brighter
Go Man Utd Go!!!!!!!!!

Man Utd vs Arsenal - Do or Die game?
I think we will get draw when we go to Stamford Bridge on April 26. So, if we win the game against Arsenal we still 3 points in front of Chelsea (I think we will win against Blackburn) with 2 games left. If that happen, I think we can consider ourselves as the champion. That's why I think today game is do or die game, not only for Man Utd but also for Arsenal.
Cristiano Ronaldo for another double?
He is amazing this year, just see the goal and the record... He already become a legend for Man Utd. The good thing is he only 23 years old. I hope he will stay at Old Trafford for long long time.
One thing I am curious, is there any age limit for young player of the year award? Coz Ronaldo already 23 years old. In the past, I think the oldest player who received the award is 21 years old. Well please correct me if I'm mistaken. Another thing about young player shortlist, why no Anderson in it? Personally, I think Anderson deserves the award. The lad is amazing this year, this season is his debut at premier league and only 19 years old but he already play important part in our midfield.
Friday, April 11, 2008
Our Man Utd Wonderkid Andersonnnn
He has a great pace like Ryan Giggs, but he's not him...
He can pass like Paul Scholes, but he's not him....
He came from Brazil....
He is just 18 years old....
That's why he is a wonderkid.....
Our wonderkid, Man Utd's wonderkid....
Anderson...!!!! Anderson....!!!!
Why don't you score a goal??? =P
Roooooney...,a Great Player Without a Killer Instinct!!!
But can't you see something that Wayne Rooney lack of?
It's a killer instict to score a goal! For being a striker, I believe he must have the killer instinct in front of the goal.
There were a lot of chances in front of the goal, but too bad he can't make it into a goal.
Come on Rooney I belive you can do better and better!!!
Just improve his finishing skills and he will be the best player in the world.
Don't you all agree with me?

Manchester United will rule the Europe again!
watch the champions league game against Roma today, but from the news I read and also from the starting lineup I can't stop thinking this year we will win the champions league again.
Can you imagine we won 1-0 against Roma without Ronaldo, Scholes and Evra. Rooney also came out from the bench. When I saw this lineup I thought it was very risky, but in the end we win 1-0, thanks to a goal by Tevez. This is the proof that Man Utd have deep squad this time and I think we can win the champions league this time.
One think that make me worry is our defence, after the Boro game we don't have both our centreback. We already miss Vidic around three weeks and Rio also doubt for today game. However after today game my worries are gone. We got Silvestre and Gary back. Silvestre play for 90 minutes and Gary came on as substitute. Besides we got very good and young defender in Gerard Pique, I think he is really good and Sir Alex shoud give him more chance in the first team.
So, after defence don't become a problem, our chance to rule Europe this time become bigger. We got excellent midfield and very good striker and more than capable goalkeeper. In the end this year will be the year of Manchester United
Glory Manchester United!
