Football 10/11: vs Chelsea (home, EPL)

Posted on May 9, 2011 by NFB

It was a hell of performance, just when the team needed it. Coming off the defeat last week and the nothing game that was Schalke, United needed to play a big game and then did so. The Old Trafford roar … Continue reading →

Football 10/11: vs Arsenal (away)

Posted on May 2, 2011 by NFB

Well, when your tactics work 80% of the time, they don’t 20% of the time. Over the last few years, United have always played the same type of game against the Gunners, which is to play deep in defence, let … Continue reading →

Football 10/11: vs Schalke CPL, Semi-Final, First Leg

Posted on Apr 27, 2011 by NFB

As a friend of mine put it last night “Looks like League Schalke turned up”. Seriously, that might have been the easiest Champions League Semi-Final game I’ve seen. I have no idea how Schalke got this far, but it can’t … Continue reading →

Football 10/11: vs Everton (home)

Posted on Apr 25, 2011 by NFB

Back from a welcome internet-free Easter break. It was a nail biting game. This, rather than the games against Arsenal and Chelsea, is the kind of game that will ruin a season. Slightly less lucky and United are suddenly closer to … Continue reading →

Football 10/11: vs Newcastle (Away)

Posted on Apr 20, 2011 by NFB

A frustrating evening, but it was always going to be a difficult contest. It could have gone either way and questions remain about some dodgy officiating. Giggs had a poor game, a rarity for him. The defence, barring a dicey opening few … Continue reading →

Football 10/11: vs Chelsea, 1/4 Finals, CPL (Home)

Posted on Apr 13, 2011 by NFB

Quite the game, and United march on to the semi’s. It didn’t seem to be going all that well in the first half, but Chelsea simply lacked that cutting edge that they used to have, with Torres remaining ineffectual at … Continue reading →

Football 10/11: vs West Ham (away)

Posted on Apr 3, 2011 by NFB

Just like the Blackpool game, another stunning comeback that may be far more important than points gained against bigger clubs. United weren’t even playing that badly throughout the first hour of the match, conceding to two penalties after all, but there was a … Continue reading →

Football 10/11: vs Marseille (CPL, Last 16, Home)

Posted on Mar 16, 2011 by NFB

Job done, but United made it much harder then it should have been. As is typical in these kind of contests, it’s the second goal that is the real decider. United got their noses in front early and it was … Continue reading →

Football 10/11: vs Liverpool (away)

Posted on Mar 7, 2011 by NFB

I suppose a few factors all played a part here. The weakness in the defence, a lack of  from the centre midfield, another poor referee who won’t follow the rules of the game, the stupid way the FA piled all these … Continue reading →

Football 10/11: vs Wigan (away)

Posted on Feb 28, 2011 by NFB

I didn’t see it, being occupied by other matters. Suffice to say, United have never had a troubling time with Wigan, with 13 straight wins. Hernandez did well, Rooney got on the scoresheet and Fabio scored his first goal for … Continue reading →
