Firstly it has been confirmed by Sir Alex Ferguson that Michael Owen will be out for 4-5 weeks with a hamstring injury and then it was confirmed that although Rooney was thought to be sidelined for 3 weeks, it may now be a more lengthy period of time, with Fergie claiming it’s all about rest now.

Luckily for the reds, Carlos Tevez is back in Argentina recovering from an injury and is doubtful for both this weeks Premier League match with Wolves and next weekends game with West Brom . I think that both Tevez and Rooney will manage to shake of their injuries in time for the Manchester derby in November. What a mouth watering prospect that game will be if both teams are full strength.

Hernandez The New Solskjaer? http://www.footballtorrents.net/hernandez-the-new-solskjaer-120 http://www.footballtorrents.net/hernandez-the-new-solskjaer-120#comments Wed, 27 Oct 2010 16:06:23 +0000 David http://www.footballtorrents.net/?p=120 Premier league football team Manchester United’s Javier Hernandez is fast proving his worth as a top class talent and a formidable front man for the reds. It’s far too early to call him a legend barring what was said in the football podcast. Wayne Rooney’s not a United legend yet (especially after his contract spat last week), but Hernandez has stepped up and helped the team over a difficult fortnight with 3 goals in his last 2 games. First was the game against Stoke at the weekend where his aerial ability and vision to position himself in the right place to grab his brace has been hailed as top class by pundits across the national press. Some past masters of the game have been saying that the ‘Little Pea’ or Chicharito as he’s known to the Old Trafford faithful looks like a football bargain buy. He has pace, ability, and eye for goal and he know the English language very well. See the football podcast where Sir Alex said in his post match interview with Sky Sports last night that he’s the first one on the training ground and the last one off. After his cameo appearance last night against Wolves in the Carling Cup (League Cup) it appears that the hard work is beginning to pay off.

His goal mouth heroics are only just beginning, but I see strong likenesses to Ole Solskjaer. He’s a player who gets in the right place at the right time.

With 6 goals already this season, Hernandez seems destined to be far more than a super sub.

Rooney on ‘Devastating’ form for United http://www.footballtorrents.net/rooney-on-devastating-form-for-united-86 http://www.footballtorrents.net/rooney-on-devastating-form-for-united-86#comments Thu, 18 Feb 2010 13:27:05 +0000 David http://www.footballtorrents.net/?p=86 Wayne Rooney continues to be in ‘devastating’ form according to Sir Alex Ferguson, following Manchester United’s first ever win at the San Siro in Italy on Tuesday night.

Rooney is now tipped to pass 30 goals this season, having already notched up 25 following his brace against Milan in the second half of the UEFA Champions League last 16 knockout stage. United won the game 3-2 after going a goal down to a deflected Ronaldinho effort early on. The red devils weathered the storm in the first half before a moment of luck levelled matters before the break when Paul Scholes scored with a miss kick – the ball coming off his standing leg and trickling past the stranded Dida.

Rooney then dazzled with 2 goals to put United 3-1 up, before Clarence Seedorf pulled one back with 5 minutes to go. Michael Carrick was sent off for kicking the ball away on David Beckham’s first game against his former club. The second leg is played in just under 3 weeks time.

Fergie Challanges Hargreaves To Be Ready For Milan http://www.footballtorrents.net/fergie-challanges-hargreaves-to-be-ready-for-milan-69 http://www.footballtorrents.net/fergie-challanges-hargreaves-to-be-ready-for-milan-69#comments Wed, 03 Feb 2010 13:31:26 +0000 David http://www.footballtorrents.net/?p=69 Sir Alex Ferguson, has challanged Owen Hargreaves to be fit and ready for the Champions League showdown with AC Milan in February. The Milan game comes in just 12 days time, and after all the injuries the reds have suffered this season, Hargreaves will be welcome return to the team who have lacked a defensive midfield player all season. Hargreaves has been out of action for some time with operations on both knees to try and fix a long term problem.

Darren Fletcher has been fantastic this term and is one of the regulars on Fergie’s team sheet when it comes to big games. Hargreaves, many feel is in the same mould when it comes to big games; remember he was England’s best player at the last World Cup against Portugal, and his tireless effort helped Manchester United lift the Champions League (European Cup) in 2008. Hargreaves has been given the target of a full week’s training to guarantee himself a place in the squad for Feb 16th.

Fergie said:

I would like to seem him make the squad for the Champions League fixtures against AC Milan, but we won’t rush him. We are being patient with the rehabilitation following his knee operations and he is alternating his training with the reserve and first-team squads, working for two days and then resting a day

Rooney Hits A Ton http://www.footballtorrents.net/rooney-hits-a-ton-66 http://www.footballtorrents.net/rooney-hits-a-ton-66#comments Tue, 02 Feb 2010 08:20:35 +0000 Alan http://www.footballtorrents.net/?p=66 Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has just hit 100 Premier League goals. The United hit man reached the landmark against Arsenal on Sunday and could (and should) go on to hit another 100 if he stays at United for the rest of his career, as he has stated many times before.

There are rumours that Barcelona and Real Madrid are lining up £70million plus bids for the striker. But Rooney has stood firm and said that he plans on staying at Old Trafford. Rooney is in scintillating form after his 4 goal haul against Hull followed by the derby crushing of Manchester City in the Carling Cup and his goal at the Emirates against Arsenal at the weekend. Sir Alex Ferguson has set Rooney a target of 30 goals this season. By the looks of it he will be nearer 40 if he continues in such a rich vain of form until the end of the 2010 campaign.
