CL: Bayer Leverkusen vs United
Who was it who said Bayer Leverkusen’s great strength was in that they were very good at being passive? I’ll ruddy tell you … someone who obviously thinks they are above having a football mouth. That’s who. Have you ever heard the like of it?! I’d just skip this bit if I were you. Damn, […]
Danny, Me and Henry…
I was asked a couple of years back which other player Danny reminded me of the most and, without pausing for breath, I replied: “Henry” because he did … a little bit. It was met with such unexpectedly high levels of derision that, to save face; to pretend I wasn’t wounded – and that in fact […]
United 1 – 2 City
Hands up who’s surprised?! We have rarely played well enough to win this kind of game all season, so expecting it now, when we’re in a particularly deep slump, always seemed unrealistic to me. All the talk of how we won’t become complacent counts for very little – we aren’t good enough to become complacent. […]

QPR 0 – 2 United
Take that Pre-Rafaelites! Not only a goal from Rafael – an automatically good thing – but a beauty! AND it STAYED HIT! I do loves me a shot that stays hit. Fantastic that we can make relatively light work of a game of this importance. Only seen brief highlights of it myself, so can’t really comment. By […]

United 2 – 0 Everton
I’m a bit too excited to write this, with the Real game – Football Christmas – only hours away, but I’ll give a few things a go… Was great to see us keep a sustained level of focus, the timing with the Real game and all, was impeccable. We’re by no means setting the world […]

FAC: United 4 – 1 Fulham
In answer to all our prayers – in a non-churchy way – Rooney was relieved of penalty duty and a goal was the result. As I’ve mentioned many times before, I don’t subscribe to the notion that players ‘should’ always score from the penalty spot, but Rooney definitely isn’t an artisan in the craft (especially the Rooney we see more […]
