Champions League - Olympiakos Vs Manchester United: Can we dream Moyes?

With the form of football Manchester United is playing – which shows in the appalling results so far, most United fans generally, openly accept that the season could not get any worst. Still 11 points off the 4^th place for a place in next season’s Champions League qualification at the end of February does not bode well for David Moyes (and everybody around him). Truth is United is bad – all season, with only occasional display that gets supporters excited temporarily. Will Wayne Rooney elevation into the highest-paid United player ever turn things around? Or does United actually need to do a “Liverpool miracle” to land the coveted Champions League spot – and winning the trophy for the 4^th time?

Premier League - Manchester United 1 Southampton 1: Here Comes Our Nightmares!!

It has been said before, time and time – that the new era post Sir Alex Ferguson will be difficult, for the club and its fans. Even the man himself warned that the difficulties will be ‘present’ – for periods longer than most fans would expect. And it has been said that David Moyes must be, and will be given time to manage Manchester United after Ferguson’s successful era. But in the new era, United is the defending Premier League champion, a football powerhouse as well as one of the biggest clubs in the football world – as compared to when Ferguson took over in 1986.

Manchester City 4-1 Manchester United: What a farce!

Nothing goes right for David Moyes and his men on the night. Moyes send out the wrong team on the night where he (and City’s Manuel Pellegrini) needs to prove himself. To add to that Moyes also sends out the wrong message, is he back to his Everton’s days mentality once a game of this magnitude comes around?

Manchester City Vs Manchester United: Pellegrini Vs Moyes

Both are new to their jobs with Manuel Pellegrini totally new to the Premier League environment while David Moyes had eleven years of successful but trophy less stints at Everton. Both are also stepping up big time with their career (although Pellegrini has that forgettable unsuccessful stint at Real Madrid but it is at Villareal and Malaga that Pellegrini gained his reputation).

Manchester United 2 Crystal Palace 0: Young gets the attention..again!!

The scoreline reads: Manchester United 2 Crystal Palace 0.

To simplify, United played against 10 men Crystal Palace for another 45 minutes and the scoreline in the end was 2-0. Convincing? How about the Ashley Young issue?

Transfer News: The Biggest Winner Among Title Contenders – Spurs?

Hard to admit it but it isn’t Manchester United that is doing the majority of the transfer (significant transfer) but it is Tottenham Hotspurs instead. Never mind Gareth Bale, Spurs’ signing is more than half of their possible starting XI. From mid table onwards teams like Everton and Crystal Palace (and even Liverpool) also did well in the transfer windows.
