Manchester United are now just four points from retaining the trophy for a third consecutive year.
It was Cristiano Ronaldo and Carlitos Tevez who did the damage, netting a goal each before half-time.
But it was Tevez who dominated the pre-match talk, having made several statements in the previous weeks about his future at Old Trafford. Tevez [...] |

In the statement released by Europe‘s governing body it stated “All three players are therefore suspended for one UEFA club competition match and will serve their suspensions when Barcelona FC meet Manchester United FC in the UEFA Champions League final in [...] |

Chelsea was literally 1 minute away from securing a repeat of last years Champions League final. BUT
Andreas Iniesta secured Barcelona’s place in Europe’s most prestigious final with a wonder strike 3 minutes into injury time!
Although Barcelona squeezed by Chelsea, they paid a high price. Both Daniel Alves and Abidal will miss the final due to [...] |

Surprisingly John O’Shea has given United the advantage heading into next weeks 2nd leg semi-final at the Emirates.
It only took United 2 minutes to create a scoring opportunity, when Fletcher’s cross was met by Rooney and his header was denied.
By the 16th minute it was clear that United’s attack was being led by Tevez. As [...] |

Sunday night Ryan Giggs was named Professional Footballers’ Association Player of the Year for the first time in almost 20 years as a professional.
The 35-year-old picked up the young player’s award twice before, once in 1992 and again the following year in 1993.
”I’ve been fortunate to win a lot of trophies, I won the young [...] |

Tevez has repeatedly expressed his desire to stay at Old Trafford but United have not made any move to keep him, and I think Tevez is fed up. He is not getting the playing time he deserves. He would be a star striker on any other top English, Spanish, or Italian League team. And it [...] |

Sir Alex was right to play young lads! |

I was shocked to see the Manchester United line-up for the FA Cup semi-final against Everton.
Selections like these always bring up the debate on whether it shows a lack of respect to the opposition. Alex Ferguson did play a lot of the young lads, but I think if any manager has the right to make [...] |

Ronaldo sends United through! |

Ronaldo scored a spectacular goal and sent United through to the semi-finals in what was probably the most boring game of the Champions League quarter-finals.
It only took Ronaldo 6 minutes to create the space necessary to unleash his rocket on goalkeeper, Helton. After a start like that, I began to brace myself for another mouth [...] |

It didn’t take long after the PFA Players’ Player of the Year nominees were announced for managers and players to criticize the shortlist. But what do you expect, United dominated the shortlist with five of the six contenders:
Edwin van der Sar, Nemanja Vidic, Rio Ferdinand, Ryan Giggs, and Cristiano Ronaldo are representing United, with Steven [...] |

After bursting on to the scene last weekend by scoring the late winner against Aston Villa, Macheda was given another chance on Saturday. Kiko didn’t disappoint, he netted another game winner against Sunderland to keep United on top of the table.
But is Macheda the real deal?
He turns 18 in August, and it will be interesting [...] |
