We
want you to take the current ‘ordinary-labeled’ squad and make them better like
they used to be (therefore like how they can be). Put the hunger back in them,
make them want the ball all the time, make them fight until the last few
seconds of stoppage time, makes them feel ‘privilege’ everytime they put on the
Manchester United jersey. Yes that top the list and not another Marouane
Fellaini….
July 1, 2013, David Moyes officially takes over from the great Sir Alex Ferguson....

Capital One Cup – Manchester United 4 Norwich City 0: Hernandez and Fabio
The
night belongs to these two players – Javier Hernandez and Fabio da Silva. Two
players that find it hard to get game times under new manager David Moyes. For
once the score line reflects the class between the two sides but of course both
sides did field squad players and youngsters. Still, this win completes the
last of the four series of home games for Manchester United at Old Trafford
this month and it can be deemed – satisfactory (3 wins and a draw).

Premier League - Manchester United Vs Southampton: Let’s look at Luke Shaw shall we?
All
the talks about signing Leighton Baines had indicated David Moyes’ not totally
convinced at Patrice Evra capability to hold down the leftback position
throughout the season with consistent performance. Alexander Buttner too is not
convincing, unable to produce more than one good performance in a row – as
evident this season. Moyes has Fabio da Silva but looks likely to see him
(Fabio) as a rightback. The link with Luke Shaw was there during the summer
transfer, so why not consider this young and highly rated fellow who is now
playing for Southampton?
Premier League - Manchester United Vs Southampton: Who is it going to be Moyes?
Always
the talking point for all of Manchester United’s fans everywhere – who is going
to be David Moyes starting XI? After 26 years of Sir Alex Ferguson, most United
fans – despite Ferguson’s constant rotation – can almost knows the way Ferguson
picked his team. But since Moyes took over – an unconvincing one so far – his
team selection still leaves many United fans scratching their heads.

Transfer News: Kagawa, Valencia Out?
With
the winter transfer window fast approaching, Manchester United – after the
debacle of the summer transfer – has been continuingly linked with various
players, the latest being a swap deal involving Leighton Baines and Antonio
Valencia. The other swap deal circulating in the rumors mills is Shinji Kagawa
and Borussia Dortmund’s Neven Subotic.

Transfer News: David Moyes will buy again!
Depending
on the source of news it was reported that the Glaziers will sanction big money
for manager David Moyes to dip into the winter transfer window – and shop.
Various names had been linked, notably Ander Hererra of Athletic Bilbao,
Leighton Baines of Everton and Fabio Coentrao of Real Madrid. Of the three
probably Coentrao will be European cup-tied leaving Baines and Herrera as the
more obvious choices – do we need them?

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: Any Win Will Be Important for Both
With
the Champions League out of the way, both Manuel Pellegrini and David Moyes are
set to clash head on for this Sunday’s Manchester derby. Both teams sit on 7 points,
3 behind the surprise league leader – Liverpool (yes, the permanent residence
from midtable!). What will this derby means for both teams?

Manchester United 4 Bayer Leverkusen 2: This is more like it…almost!
All
the ‘first’ – David Moyes first Champions League game for Manchester United,
first Champions League wins for United and himself, first Champions League win
ever for United under someone other than the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson, and
the list would go on but United fans would take this result. It is comfortable
but not entirely convincing – for the soft goals that Bayer Leverkusen managed
to scored.

Manchester United Vs Bayer Leverkusen: Moyes must be ready
This
is another series of first: David Moyes first group stage Champions League game,
first Champions League game for Manchester United, first Champions League game
for Manchester United at Old Trafford. Moyes is so new to this job there are so
many ‘first’, but does it matter and how will he fare?
Transfer News: Manchester United needs to plan early if…
The
summer transfer window is now firmly shut. With the fiasco over the transfer
activities by David Moyes and his sidekicks – Ed Woodward, Manchester United
has – according to sources – started their transfer planning for the incoming
transfer window – in the winter. Among those linked were Christian Benteke, Fabio
Coentrao and Ander Herrera.

Transfer News: Latest updates – Manchester United left ‘red-faced’
Never
before in the transfer market have supporters seen such ‘disorganized’ last
minutes scramble for signature of targeted players, not even those last minutes
deal involving a certain Daniel Levy and his Tottenham Hotspurs’ players –
Michael Carrick and Dimitar Berbatov. The farce on the deadline transfer will
make Manchester United a laughing stock among rivals’ fans for weeks and months to come.

Manchester United Vs Chelsea: We are ready!
Two
days to go ahead of this mega match-up between defending champion Manchester United and title contender Chelsea, who coincidently sits on top of the Premier
League table – courtesy of that extra game (and win) against Aston Villa. One
thing for sure, we can expect Jose Mourinho to continue his ‘mind games’,
making statements - especially on the Wayne Rooney issue. He needs to, based on United’s win over Swansea and the fact
that it is at Old Trafford.

Chelsea on the 26th August.

Transfer News/Updates: 22 August – Samuel Eto – No please! Luke Shaw ,Yes please
Luke
who? Luke Shaw from Southampton, an 18 year old highly rated leftback who apparently
had been under the radar during Sir Alex Ferguson’s time. And possibility of
Samuel Eto coming to Manchester United, or Chelsea, or even Arsenal?
