Was Michael Owen a successful punt?
19 May 2012, 8:14 am
Ferguson has pulled off many tricks and surprises in the past, so much so that Manchester United fans have learnt to expect the unexpected.

23 December 2011, 8:42 pm
Manchester United had stayed invincible in the Premier League until February last season but had a poor run of away games. The Red Devils had taken just 13 points from 27 by this time last season, with seven draws and two wins.

16 June 2011, 8:39 pm
American owners of Manchester United could be set to list the football club on the Hong Kong stock exchange, which could value the club at around £1.7 billion. Manchester United is the most valuable sports franchise in the world and has a large following across Asia, meaning that listing in Hong Kong could make a rather large increase in the valuation. The Glazer family paid just £790 million for the club in 2005 and have loaded their own personal debt onto the club ever since. The English Pre...Wesley Sneijder and Luka Modric will make Manchester United Number One Again
9 June 2011, 10:06 am
Manchester United have had a fantastic season, overtaking Liverpool domestically by winning the 19th title, which should not be forgotten. This season has culminated a truly sensational feat by Sir Alex Ferguson but it is not over yet as the next target is Barcelona. The Champions League Final at Wembley last month illustrated the difference in quality between Manchester United and Barcelona. Many have even gone as far to say that Barcelona are the greatest club side in the history of the game. ...
