[jeff49er]

It was a good result. SAF can even afford to bring in J Evans and D Gibson for match practice :kiss:

Yeah man. These 2 are definitely players for the future.
They have gained lots of exposure this season.
And they played pretty well under tremendous pressure.

I see J Evans as the person to succeed R Ferdinand. Though he is 30 now, R Ferdinand gets more injuries last few seasons and J Evans has blosommed this season.

D Gibson will prob play second fiddle. Right in the middle there is Carrick, D Fletcher, Anderson.

Prob off season SAF might bring a striker in to have 4 traditional forwards.

Man Utd 3-0 Fulham

First half was superb, second half nowhere near.
Scholes was simply awesome, dictating the midfield.
First goal, pin point corner from Carrick, and Scholes with his trademark first time volley from outside box.
Second goal, O'Shea put it across goal, Berbatov calmly slot in.
Third goal, Park put it across goal, Rooney scored just 2mins on the pitch.

Man Utd 5 points ahead of Liverpool. :thumbsup:
VDS breaks world record for clean sheet. :thumbsup:
Rooney's back with a goal. :thumbsup:

Yeah 3-0 win, world record broken another record on the way! and Rooney's first touch turn into goal!:devil:

J Evans needs much more match experience n drilling before he can really be ready to take over R Ferdinard!

To me J Evans have too much baby fat.....looked alike O'shea....he needs to build mussles, speed and be more aggresive :thumbsup:

Read some where he needs another 89mins against Blackburn to break Europe club record....now I am quite puzzled that how come they said he had broken the world record but still need to concur the Europe record? :dunno:

Maybe it is 2 standard like World cup n Euro cup! Cos u World cham doesnt mean same as Euro cham! ? :bsmilie:

No need to drill lah...he is center, not fullback like Evra or Rafael

If he has half the heading skill of Vidic then very good liao :thumbsup:

Good in dribbling lagi jialat, sekalia he suka suka dribble in his own half like Bartez....and sueh sueh the ball got stollen, he will be crown man :sweatsm:

Paul Scholes was simply superb. Despite his age, he rolled back the years by orchestrating the midfield and his passes simply destroyed the opponents. The way he sprayed his passes was a pure joy to watch and many a times he just spilt the opponent's defence wide open with a simple pass. You could see him spraying his passes around with deadly accuracy and at one point one pass from the middle cut across 5 Fulham players like a hot knife slicing thru butter. Last week, we were heaping praises on Giggs, another old guard, this time around its Scholes' turn to put up a stellar performance. The duo have shown that, despite their age, they still have plenty of fire in their bellies and a shining example for the young players to emulate.

Yeah Giggs and Scholes looked very hungry and fresh. Lots of ideas and dynamic play from them. Scholes' goal last nite was also a beauty. Wonder how he managed to get the volley on target from a corner. Giggs and Scholes have already scored wonder goals, hope to see more of these from them. Think Fergie really did a good job on them.

Quote from BBC Sport:

The result provided United with the ideal launch pad for a spell of eight games in 25 days, including a Champions League tie against Inter Milan, the Carling Cup final against Tottenham and ending with the Premier League visit of Liverpool.

It gets busier and the schedule is really unrelenting. But I'm confident Man Utd can cope and handle it well.

 

[coolioS]

Unrelenting is indeed the word to describe the schedule.
Good for fans like us, because we get to watch a game every 3-4 days.


Giggs and Scholes really providing the inspiration. Crunch time coming up with games in Champs League, with better opponents and much more travelling. Lets get behind our team!!!

Good that their form is peaking now just in time for the Inter game! SAF will most likely to field them as it is SAF style is most likely to go for experience then any other when it comes to CL!:devil:

This weekend

Man Utd vs Blackburn
Aston Villa vs Chelsea (3rd vs 4th place)
Liverpool vs Man City (2nd vs 9th place)

Hope Villa and Chelsea draw, then Robinho on form help City win Liverpool. :thumbsup:
