Despite being a website with content about Man United written by Man United fans – we all happen to not only enjoy football in general, but watch a lot of it. Therefore, we’re trying something new – a weekly column looking at a few learnings and observations from the weekend’s football and not necessarily just in England. A new scribe shall be joining us on this column, Trinidad & Tobago’s finest, Rob. We’ll make no attempt to be neutral and we’ll attempt to link back to United where possible but otherwise enjoy our thoughts and ramblings.

Danny Welbeck versus Everton

Author: Stretford_End

Manchester United notched up their second clean sheet away from home in the Premier League with a 1-0 victory over Everton. Javier Hernandez scored the only goal of the game, as he did in the victory over Everton last April, following a superb cross from Evra on the left hand side. Sir Alex Ferguson made a number of changes following the 6-1 defeat at the hands of Manchester City last weekend.

Here we discuss the talking points of Manchester United’s 1-0 win over Everton.

Everton score a late equaliser against Man United
AUTHOR: – Doron

Where to begin?! What a strange week it’s been! United somehow still have a cushion at the top of the league – a 6 point gap now over Arsenal and a revived Chelsea. Meanwhile, Everton are on their own surge and are now hot on the heels of arch rivals Liverpool who are 6th. Despite what at first looks like a mediocre away record (19 points from 48), this is the 6th best return in the league. United though have been almost perfect at home this season and will be looking for a record 13th home league win in a row.

Everton 3-3 Manchester United Match Report

Posted on September 11, 2010  by Yolkie  in Everton, Man United, Match Reports, Premier League   2 Comments »

Everton 3 -3 Manchester United

A draw at Everton might not be the worst result, given Manchester United’s recent record at Goodison Park. United were 3-1 up in injury time and though the inexplicable surrender in injury time was simply unexplainable, it was not, as some United bloggers described it, “a disgrace”.

Darren Fletcher, Nani and Dimitar Berbatov had overturned an early deficit to put the visitors into a seemingly unassailable lead but a remarkable late surge from the Toffees registered an unlikely result.

The major talking point in the build up to Manchester United’s away match at Goodison Park will inevitably be the allegations surrounding Wayne Rooney. Everton fans already feel betrayed by the way Rooney left the Toffees, and the controversy surrounding the England striker will only fuel their fire for harassing him. Trips to Goodison Park have become a difficult fixture in recent years and the inevitable abuse from the home fan will only create a more heated battle.

Phil Jagielka – one is most definitely NOT amused

Posted on September 09, 2010  by Yolkie  in Everton, Man United, Premier League, Press   6 Comments »

Phil Jagielka
Phil Jagielka. A model professional; someone always in the paper for the right reasons, always pictured doing charity work. A player who has demonstrated to kids everywhere that a player doesn’t need to be a Leo Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, or some other teenage sensation to succeed in the game. He has worked hard to get his rewards and is rightly respected by most in the game.

However, he has undermined all that hard work in one fell swoop with a quote in this mornings Metro, saying “it should be amusing” when commenting on the level of abuse he expects Wayne Rooney to receive on Merseyside on Saturday.

Goodison defeat does not bode well for title aspirations

Posted on February 21, 2010  by Stretford-end  in Everton, Injuries, Man United, Players, Statistics   No Comments »

Duncan Ferguson

Manchester United’s defeat to Everton was only the third time in Premier League history Evertonian’s got one over us at Goodsion Park. The first defeat at Goodison in the Premier League was in February 1995, when a Daniel Amokachi gave the Toffees a 1-0 victory. They had to wait another ten years to taste victory against United, another header from an Everton legend – Duncan Ferguson – gave the home side a 1-0 victory, which helped in their push for a fourth place finish. On both occasions we lost the league to Blackburn Rovers and Chelsea respectively. In 1995 we were without our talisman Eric Cantona, whilst in 2005 we arguably had a team in transition – but what was our excuse yesterday?

After the battering by Fulham in December made it 5 league defeats in the season, Manchester United have responded by dragging themselves back into contention with 6 wins out of 7 in the league to set up a massive eleven days in the clubs season – three away games against in-form, top class opposition will undoubtedly prompt Sir Alex to use the 4-3-3 formation. In doing so, we’ll find out more about the future of Anderson. Should Fergie swallow his pride if it is in the clubs best interests short term?
