I miss those days where keano was still around..especially when we are against arsenal..patrick viera vs keano..god damn it was awesome..

I'm not old enough to watch Keano play time at United. Watch highlight at youtube not same

I start follow EPL match the time Keane leave to Celtic. I still remember Keane kutuk all United player that time. RVN lazy, CR only know run and run, Fletcher chase ball like maniac but not helpful    Only remember that

Don't forget Ando as well. Suddenly our options there looking great. With Valencia out, we might see Hargreaves play in his position where he was great.

Scholes, Fletcher, Carrick, Anderson, Hargreaves, Gibson.

You miss one hell of a player. Fletcher + Carrick(minus the long pass, he was more economical with his passing) + Mascherano + a lot more. One minute he was near or even inside the penalty area to score a goal, and once the opposition counter attack, he'll be the one making the tackles on the other side of the pitch, and then straight away join the next attack. That's the kind of player he was. Box to box. Keane-Butt/Scholes. I didn't see many live games back in the day, but from the few live games they showed, I still remember how we look really poor whenever he misses a game. Butt-Scholes don't look as effective against most sides. Always lacking something.

eh, isn't it Inter v Roma?

City's midfield have been immense. They did a good job closing down space against Chelsea's midfield. Especially around their penalty box.

Now's the chance for Man Utd to catch up, but it's Bolton, so don't get too excited just yet. It's not a done deal.

Here's to hoping.

Wan iz haz succez jinx Chelski. Citeh played like sh*t last nite, thanks for Wan that they win. Not even a glance of ambition in Mancini lineup, 3 defensive midfielder in HOME game, this worst than Jose reign with Maka-alele as anchor man in Chelski time. It even worst than Leeds when we played that at FA cup last season!!

I'm expecting Kevin Davies to bully Evans tonight unless Rio start, Bolton will continue with their long ball tactics and if they ambitious enough, they will start with Elmander and Davies upfront. The team need to win, they have to.

I kesian Fletcher.
Someone is jinxing him.

we are seeing Berba-bashers turned to Evan-bashers & JOS-bashers?

hopefully our midfield gets better when carrick and hargreaves get back i srsly cant wait to see them play

Mixed news on the injury front

Wayne Rooney was forced off during the 2-2 draw with Bolton Wanderers on Sunday nursing an ankle injury, but Sir Alex Ferguson expects the Reds striker to be fit for the Champions League trip to Valencia on Wednesday.

However, the news on Ryan Giggs, who was also an enforced substitution at the Reebok Stadium, is not as positive. The Welshman suffered a hamstring strain and will be sidelined for a fortnight at least.

“Ryan is the more serious injury,” Sir Alex said. “It’s a hamstring injury and he’ll be out for a couple of weeks. With Wayne, I am sure we will be able to get him ready for Wednesday.”

The Reds have won away from home only once so far this season – the 5-2 victory against Scunthorpe in the Carling Cup. But after a 0-0 draw with Rangers in the opening Champions League Group C fixture, the Reds’ trip to Spain this week is vitally important – especially as Valencia opened their European account with a thumping 4-0 win over Turkish side Bursaspor.

Rooney’s fitness, regardless of the scrutiny on his on-field form and off-field personal life, is a major boost for the Reds. Rio Ferdinand wasn’t included in the 18-man squad against Bolton, although he did travel to the Reebok Stadium, and he is expected to be involved against Valencia on Wednesday.

sunderland is another tough nut to crack, just look at what they did to arsenal and liverpool home 

I have one question. Our away games have been horrible tough games so far. How does this season compare with similar fixtures from last season?

Fulham also unbeaten.

i rather lose 1 game than draw 2. whats the point of unbeaten. ZZZZZ.

lose 1 game = -3 points
draw 2 games = losing 4 points.

u know, the ankle injury thing could just be a cover story so that people won't lose confidence in him. saf like to play mind games after all.

valencia and sunderland test will determine united future ...

i guess 2 defeats in the rows.

>Play badly, win anyway

This is the type of game we need more, it's not nice to watch but we badly need this
