United 2 - Blackburn 0


Now, that was vintage Cristiano and Co. I was a little concern before the game to tell you the truth, since Blackburn form against the big teams. But we managed to gave efficient display and saw them off, quite comfortably. Ronaldo was excellent in this game, instead of doing tricks, he pass the ball quicker, and use a more direct approach. This is like him last season. Occasionally the tricks, but more of the end product. Looks like England will miss Wayne more than United gonna miss him. Overall the defence was solid and Hargreaves and Anderson are seem to be getting along each passing game. Whew! SAF sure have a selections headache, once all of our central midfield are fit. We have so much player who can play in that position. Even O'Shea can do a very good job there. Evra is the most consistent performer so far, seeing him going up and down on the left wing was a joy. But, it concerns me, that we do not have a natural cover for him. If he's injured, we will have trouble. But at the moment, O'Shea can slot there as well. But i reckon, we buy someone as a leftback in the January transfer window. We can surely leapfrog Arsenal if we maintain the current form.
