Thanks to Ashley Young for garnishing this special day with a big slap in the chops. All the title talk today is obviously about the capitulation of Balotelli’s City career, but Ashley Young, who was also parodying himself with more than just THAT dive, deserves equal billing. Get rid. Simple.
Scholes was wonderful (Beautiful goal, some drool-inducing passes), so were others to a lesser degree. A fairly straight-forward result full of domination and the accustomed season’s frustration.
Poor Rooney (great pen) thinning on top, the big question for him, Surgery or Spray?
Man of the Match: Scholesy, of course. The Ginger Tom-Tom.
