The Anderson Make-or-Break

Despite @CheGiaevara put pen to paper about our midfield in general through his/our previous post, I'd like to focus on one particular player featuring on this part of our side, the player I reckon has the highest potential. As the headline reads, this could be the vital season for Anderson Luis Abreu de Oliveira. This could be the make or break for our £17,3M transfer from the summer of 2007.

Operation: Midfield

By @CheGiaevara

A summer filled with transfer chaos, turmoil and exciting young players stepping up to the plate, Manchester United fans failed to see replacement in the one area that's been adressed time and time again. A promising Spanish goalkeeper, a rugged and rough young Englisman and a flamboyant and exciting Englan international all came in, but as the transfer window closed there was no sight of the holy grail, there was no sight of a central midfielder.

Money talks, people mumble

by @CheGiaevara

Throughout the history of football, the big teams have stood out in terms of results, trophies and achievements. As we've gone into the 21st century, the criterias of being a huge team does not depend too much on your results anymore. It's all about the money, and how much of it you got.

The enigma that is Wesley Sneijder

by @CheGiaevara

Manchester United fans are used to long-dragging transfer sagas during summertime. The debacle surrounding Carlos Tévez' exit at Boleyn Ground to the war between United and Tottenham Hotspurs for the services of one Dimitar Berbatov. Both in recent time, both dragging on a whole summer. Both fail, however, to deliver the same amount of expectaction, "will he, won't he"-stories and pure excitement as the story that has been ongoing for the past two summers.
