well to be fair, even if Ronaldo may have heard the whistle, he
should not have use his hands. it is a good lesson for him to
learnt.
kudos to Rooney for getting the 100 goals..
many reasons why MU should win and not city..
firstly, the link up between Evra and Ronaldo down the left
wing, it is the most productive. I wasn't sure why Ronaldo and Park
needs to switch, maybe to balance.
secondly, Fletcher and Carrick, they were doing a fanastic job
of holding the midfield and passing the ball forward. This stresses
Ireland and Hanman, and they are forced to come close and creates a
hole infront of city defence which United uses. And inevitably,
forces SWP to track back, and his best energy was spent on
defending more than attacking.
thirdly, Vidic. The man-mountain, he alone could have stem all
City attacks, but with the backline holding firm, the defence is
sound.
to put Rafael on Robinho was a masterstroke. Brazil vs Brazil.
His energy was immense, and I think he is slowly balancing between
going forward and defending. I see him as a natural successor to
GNeville.
And I think we need to applaud Park, he was working tireless and
also got a hand in the goal. He is our Asian Pride.
lastly, Rooney, he is like a shark that smells blood, always
going forward. I felt he was even more forward than Berba. But I am
delighted that he held his composure well. But one thing, his
needless complains may earn him cards in future.
Sadly, the sore point was ronaldo. He was not pushed as per Rio.
To be fair, I believe if he went and put full contact with the
ball, we may be 2-0 up.
also, Giggs, is finally showing his age. Imagine, he can't get
away form Dunne in a foot race when he was put clear. And also,
when Joe Hart was off position. His awareness was below par. If he
and not Rooney would have release the shot towards the goalmouth,
MU would have been 2-0.
Tatically,SAF got one up vs Sparky. The wily old fox got his
3points.
The biggest joy of this win was to stuff the words back in
Sinclair's mouth back in the studio..
