Tukubali washabiki wa Man U kuwa mwaka huu hatuna kikosi imara ndio maana tuna matokeo mabavu ila ni vizuri maana Fergie atajua kuwa kuchukua vikombe lazima uwe na kikosi imara sio cha kuungaunga

For those who claim kuwa Man utd bila Rooney si lolote si chochote they are kind myopic kwa mtizamo wangu. Lets facts speaks bana. Hivi mechi ngapi ambazo Rooney kakosa na tumefungwa?, may be sina kumbukumbu nzuri naomba nisaidiwe. Roughly, katika mechi 7 hivi tulizofungwa almost 5 kama sio sita Runi was there, Chelski (A), Liver(A), Fulham (A), Man City (A), Bayern (A), Aston Villa (H and A (FA semis), etc. Tangu kaumia, tumefungwa na Chelski, tukashinda na Bolton (hapa sikuwaona mkiongea), na droo na B'burn. So?, Much respect kwa Rooney na he is great. Nafikiri tunahitaji striker, goal poucher, the likes of Ruud Van na Torres and not unless otherwise.

Go United!

 

[Nemesis]

Sijui yule dogo Argentinian if he can resemble Ruud Van, Tores, Messi or alike. Otherwise tutapata shida zaidi msimu ujao.

Ebanae JF imerudi lini? Fellow Red Devilians mwaka huu hii ni wake up call nzuri tuu after all si unajua uwa tunarespond vizuri baada ya matatizo ya hapa na pale.

Reaction To Blackburn Disappointment

At the final whistle yesterday I said that the title race was over. I was so frustrated with our performance and the tetchy atmosphere in the crowd added to our out of sorts feelings. You watch your team dominate a game away from home but then struggle to remember the saves their keeper has had to make and you’re left to wonder where it’s all gone wrong.
It was apparent from the start that there was a gulf in class between the two teams but it would all be about whether we could break them down.

Our first chance of the game came when Federico Macheda played in Antonio Valencia from the right (2.48). The angle was tight but the winger lashed a shot away and Paul Robinson made a good save to keep him out.

Our best chance over the 90 minutes and one which should have resulted in a goal came when Dimitar Berbatov played in Valencia behind the Blackburn defence, leaving him one on one with Robinson (3.56). The keeper made a poor clearance, Berbatov held off the foul from his opponent, before slotting the ball between two defenders. Valencia had the option of Macheda to his left but went for goal, only to see the outstretched foot of the keeper turning the ball away. For a player who is so capable and confident when it comes to striking the ball with power, we will have to rue his decision to attempt to side foot it past the keeper.
Maybe it’s occasions like these which separate challengers from Champions, split second chances which win or lose a football game.

After that, we just created half chances. Nani did well in the second half to beat his man, before the linesman waved his flag for a freekick. He whipped the ball in past any United player but the rebound fell to Berbatov who struck the ball on target, only to see it blocked by Phil Jones. It then fell to Darron Gibson who hit it well wide.

Nani then delivered the ball from the other wing with Valencia our only man in the box, although he swung awkwardly and appealed for a penalty that would never be awarded. Why only Valencia was in the box is the puzzle though, with Berbatov, our only striker, being the player to pass to Nani in the first place. Why wasn’t Berbatov waiting in the box? Because when he waited nothing came to him? Because the manager has instructed him otherwise? It’s a bizarre situation.

Substitute Ji-Sung Park injected a bit of life in to the game and powered through in to the box. He was knocked off balance by one defender before another slid in and took his foot away. It happened just outside the box but he stumbled inside. Maybe the referee was worried he may have to award a penalty if he awarded a foul, so wasn’t interested, but he did have a good view of it.

Paul Scholes found Gary Neville with a great forward ball. He headed it back across the box to Berbatov who stood just inside the area. He hit it well first time and had it gone either side of the keeper, it would have been a certain goal. Sadly, he fired it straight at Robinson. Having been booed for ten minutes or so prior to this by sections of his own support, it was clear he was feeling the pressure, and the only real chance that his team mates created for him over the 90 minutes resulted in an easy save for the English goalie. How things could have been different.

Moments later, a ball bounced over a Blackburn head and Berbatov opted to strike first time from outside the area, but it was miles wide, and he turned his back angrily, huffing and puffing.
Ji-Sung Park got in to a good position but tried a little stepover and a pass instead of getting a shot away. The ball fell to Gary Neville, of all people, who pulled his weak shot wide of the post. It was frustration after frustration on a day we couldn’t afford them.
Our players simply weren’t good enough. The defence dealt with what they had to, but there wasn’t much pressure on them, but our midfield and strikeforce didn’t do enough. Ferguson played Macheda in a 442, as many of us had wanted to see in the absence of Rooney, and it didn’t work because Macheda didn’t do anything. So then we reverted to 451 which also didn’t work because Berbatov didn’t play well enough, doesn’t suit leading the line, and was utterly demoralised thanks to the behaviour of our fans.

Nani did a job, Valencia was disappointing, Scholes didn’t have much to offer and Ryan Giggs contributed nothing. How many good balls in to the box did we see? What did Macheda or Berbatov have to latch on to? It was just poor all round.

I’ve said all season, whether we’ve been top of the table or third, winning the league isn’t our God-given right and for us to win the title this season would mean we were achieving something no other team ever has done before. It shouldn’t be our expectation that United win the league every year. Still, dealing with the reality of that is easier said than done. We can say we can’t win the league every season but that doesn’t mean we’re not gutted every season we don’t win it.

But there’s still 12 points for us to play for, 15 points for Chelsea, so we can’t rule anything out. As it stands, we need to win all our games whilst Chelsea lose one, draw one and win the others. Or we could win all our remaining games, Chelsea draw two and win the rest, and we have to make up the goal difference.

The odds are stacked against us, no denying it, but there’s no point chucking in the towel just yet. Stranger things have happened. Chelsea have to go to White Hart Lane (5th) and Anfield (6th) yet, as well as playing Bolton (15th), Stoke (10th) and Wigan (17th). Is it too hard to imagine they could draw two of those games? Course not.

I’m not deluding myself or trying to convince you of anything, rather just trying to get a bit of perspective. We talked about how right now was the best and worst part of the season, with incredible pressure making any game hard to enjoy right now, but the promise of glory making it worthwhile. How I see it, things can become a lot more enjoyable, because we have nothing to expect now. It is Chelsea’s title to throw away, not ours to win, so sit back and relax and see what happens. If we don’t win it, then of course, we’ll be gutted, but we’ve already got one trophy in the bag and we’ve got next season to look forward to, with our players hurting from this season and striving to do better in the next.
We’ll never die

Nadhani hapa swali sahihi la kujiuliza ni kuwa Man U wameshinda mechi ngapi ambapo Roony alikuwa mfungaji?

 

[Eqlypz]

Mnasahau kuwa mwanzo mwa msimu Ferguson alimchallenge Rooney kufunga magoli 30+ season hii.Akifunga Messi mnakaa kimya akifunga Rooney mnapiga kelele ebo ushabiki gani huu?

The Red Knights consortium has convened to finalise plans to launch a takeover of Manchester United and are hopeful terms of an offer will be ready this week.

However, the group of wealthy United fans, which includes Goldman Sachs chief economist Jim O'Neill, a former United director, and Mark Rawlinson, a partner at leading London law firm Freshfields, do not expect to make a formal bid for the club before the end of the season.
Wednesday's talks were held to confirm exactly where the money will come from to fund a bid and to determine the level of fan involvement in the proposed ownership structure.
A key discussion was also to focus on the £509 million bond taken out by the Glazer family, who currently own United - it is likely any takeover bid would have to entail retaining the bond.
Investment bank Nomura have been advising both the Red Knights and the Manchester United Supporters' Trust (MUST), who have been broadly backing the takeover bid.
A source close to the talks said: "We are now developing the financial model before making a bid. This is very much getting into the details of funding and future ownership."
The Glazers bought United for £800 million in 2005 but loaded debt on to the club - the total debt now tops £700 million.

Loosing 7 games hadn't been a great deal, take into account that the leaders have lost 5 game as well. I think the league was a bit balanced this season.
Nadhani sasa ligi inarejea kwenye enzi za ushindani wa kweli ambapo bingwa anakua point chini ya 80 na anayeshuka daraja anakua na point zaidi ya 40!

Msimu wa 1994/5 (na kurudi nyuma) kulikua na mechi 42. Mimi napenda sana kunapokua na ushindani wa kweli. Haipendezi timu kushuka daraja na point 11 kama ilivyotokea kwa Derby.

Cheki twakimu hizi hapa chini.

42 games losing 7 kuna tofauti na 38 losing 7 or more...kama ingekuwa ni 42 games mpaka sasa kungekuwa na 8 games to go,nisinge rule out winning the title,ndio maana nikasema last team to win the league after losing 7 games ni blackburn na as you pointed out walikuwa na 42 games while now man utd lost 7 games with 4 to play to make it 38 games,nafikiri tuko pamoja

City's Kolo Toure battles with United's Wayne Rooney​

Paul Scholes scored a last-gasp winner at Manchester City to put Manchester United firmly back in the Premier League title race.

The match looked to be heading towards a draw after United wasted chances through Wayne Rooney and Ryan Giggs.​

Rooney fired wide from 12 yards before Giggs shot weakly into the hands of Shay Given from closer range.​

But deep into injury time Patrice Evra floated in a delightful cross for veteran Scholes to head in.​

Full report to follow.​
