I'm not a Man U fan but I hope they do well next season. They just have an excellent team. Good luck Manchester!

i've to admit that it is going to be harder for other teams to catch up with man u next season... and i've no doubt that they will probably win it again next season...

Well done United and well done Ruud!

These are matches vs the most easiest opponents you could get. How does the result even matter ?

They dont, there only preseason games designed to get the players fit and to treat the fans.

I think Ruud will have a great first season in the premier league for sure.

The 4th guy was poor ole Keane... David Beckham took a shot around 2-3 metres behind the penalty area. Beat the malaysian 'keeper, but not that crossbar :p

The scoring almost opened in under 1-2 mins when van nistelrooy gets the ball and tries one just outside the penalty box... it's the crossbar that saved malaysia. Well... van nistelrooys second goal was a clever chip ;) He could have had a "hat-trick-debut" on his first match with united... hmm... :rolleyes:

All I'm saying is that Malaysia isn't premier league...it's malaysia...Lets not jump the guns yet....But it's enevitable that united wil do well...hopefully in Europe...

The performance shows that the team can gel to the new signings, veron played like he had been there his whole career.

Who will be taking the free kicks now?

to be fair, what i seen of the locals that i ''made my mark'' on,these guys looked quite good but these were about 100+Singapore folks playing on one pitch!!

it's strange how you guys can have teams like one has shirts and non-shirts...
in the U.K. you have icicles on your nipples after 5 mins!

It's still good ole Becks taking those freekicks. Corners are taken by Becks and Giggs...

They still play the 4-4-2... Paul Scholes replaced Veron at half time.
