"Ferguson announced a week ago that United had ended interest in the German international. His explanation for this apparent turnaround in policy is that Ballack, available for free in the summer, is too similar to Wayne Rooney and Paul Scholes. However, this does nothing to explain the time and energy that seems to have been devoted to bringing the German international to Old Trafford." Eurosport.co.uk

How Ballack is similar to Wayne Rooney? Sometimes I wonder what this man has in his head.

i think rooney has what it takes to be captain after gary is done with his career. but congrats to him

dont forget smith

HT Man U 1 - 0 Portsmouth
Scholes scores his first goal of the season with a header. JS Park playing brilliantly so far.

 

[Payaah]

3-0

Goals from Rooney and Ruud

 

[mnj2x]

hmm..how did ruud escape suspension? thought he had collected 5 yellow cards

 

[b-ytter]

nice game but with all our chances it shoud be 5-0
Rooney MOM

 

[ladylover]

Great performane by us, Park is getting better every match, he is keeping Ronaldo on the bench. I hope they can continue this form and tear apart Benfica, good to see Scholes scoring his first goal of the season and he is slowly getting his form back.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Great game. Ronaldo and Saha really transformed the game when they came in. Hope we can play like this in midweek at Benfica. I'm confident that we'll qualify in europe.

We still need to brush up on finishing instinct in the first half...

cannot afford to throw away any chances again when facing benfica....

 

[b-ytter]

Nice to see Solskjaer join Ferguson to pay Best final respects in Belfast!

 

[VanTheMin]

hmm..how did ruud escape suspension? thought he had collected 5 yellow cards

it comes after a game .
he'll be suspended vs everton.
if he would have got direct red then he gets suspended immediate match

Thanks!


Can't believe that we have another goal from a set-piece and what's more it's from a corner!

Rooney's goal is great too, it's so hard to hit it on a turn, so fast, hard and right between the keepers arm and the post. a few centimeters to the right or left and it would have been wide. Goal of the best player.

And i don't even wonna talk about Ruud's goal. He chipped that ball perfectly without even taking any deflections in a situation, where most players would go for straight power shot. Beautiful goal as well.

 

[ngyc]

finally we're second place on the table

 

[Velazquez]

omg, what an amazing goal by ruud!!

 

[AlienSeafood]

how come i can watch the ruud goal, but not the other 2?!

 

[Fernandez]

Great win. Hopefully we beat Benfica.

One good thing about all those tributes to George Best is that it's gonna make players like Rooney and Rossi to realise that there is so much more they that they can learn and hopefully it will inspire them to improve even faster, so that one day they too could be remembered in a same way.
