    Another 1-0 win for Man U last Saturday. Can't score many goals like last season. Hope we can score a lot of goals when Rooney and Ronaldo are back. Ronaldo should be back against Everton.

    i see the way United play oso wanna cry liao. Build up play slow and predictable. When reach ouside of opposition penalty area, ran out of idea, just pass the ball wide and cross blindly into box hoping sum1 will get lucky and head the ball in. The last 3 games got almost 66% possession of the ball but out of that 66%, 70% of that it were ball retention via passing throughout the back four (Think rio pass to vidic, vidic to evra, evra to shcoles, scholes to rio, rio to brown, brown to scholes, scholes to vidic, vidic to evra, evra to rio, rio to scholes, scholes to brown..............................for the umpteempth time then onie one long ball to the front). I think we are lacking some direction and penetration in out play. Tevez just cant play the lone foprward in the 4-5-1 formation.-dead

    He is at his deadliest when he drops down to the hole behind the striker or when he drifts out to the wide positions. Remember how he hit form last season at east ham when he were operation behind zomora and harewood? When rooney returns, i cant see how he is gonna partner tevez upfront. They would just drift into the hole which is already overcrowded as it is with nani and giggs cutting in and scholes drifting in there. We sorely miss a focal point in our attack, sumone who can hold the ball or win some headers when crosses or long balls are launched into opposition territory. Hopefully, saha will stay fit and give us that. Hopefully united can sort it out during the international break. We need more pace in our play and more direction. Finger crossed no one pick up any injury during the international break. -sorc

    i saw yesterday's stats...19 shots, 8 on target. how could u shot 8 towards the goal, and only score 1? and 19 shooting chances....Man Utd needs a decent striker, someone like Klose, someone who is good in front of goals, just like V.Nistelrooy was.

    Ronaldo needs a break... he looks really out of shape out there... Nani's doing a lot better than i expected...

    Arsenal's back at the top with a game in hand =)

    that's just it... he doesn't seem fit probably from lack of games... i can't say the internationals took a lot out of him... but u can see he's just not playing very well at all...

    Shocking news. Mourinho left Chelsea this morning. Could this be the end of Chelsea challenging the Premiership this season?

    Liverpool will be without Xabi Alonso and Dan Agger for up to six weeks after both were confirmed with broken metatarsals.

    ouch... that's tough on the reds... but they got enough good players to see them through the rest of the season... babel can move into the side and gerrard can play xabi's spot... and liverpool's got Riise back... so alls good :)
