Weekend Review - 20 Sep 2009


Manchester United vs Manchester City



"Is it me or a concidence that Man City's strikers are either on medical leave or suspended for playing truant to his ex-club?"
-Gary, 20 Sep 2009

3 points in the bag. 7 more to go in order to qualify for the knockout round.

The upcoming match against Man City will be the most anticipated match over the weekend for various obvious reasons.

First and foremost, it will be Man City's way of getting players that they want, literally presenting a blank cheque to another club. Players like Kaka, Cristiano Ronaldo and John Terry were been targeted by Man City. In the end, none of the above mentioned are Man City's players. Secondly, Man City's new found riches have threatened to break up the strangehold of the Top 4 and the Premiership title.

Lastly, Man City want to use this match as a gauge of whether dominance and power could be shifted from the red half of Manchester to blue half of Manchester. I would ask them to try again when Fergie retires. Mark Hughes is good but not to the standard of Fergie yet. Mark Hughes is not a disciplinarian like Fergie and would be extremely difficult to contain the ego of all the star players.

Is it me or a concidence that Man City's strikers are either on medical leave or suspended for playing truant to his ex-club?

Man Utd Team News: Paul Scholes is suspended. Edwin van der Sar and Owen Hargreaves are out.

Man City Team News: Emmanuel Adebayor is suspended. Carlos Tevez, Roque Santa Cruz, Robinho are out injured.

Odds and Analysis: Man Utd is giving 1 ball. Take Man Utd for the odd goal win and to end Man City's 100% winning run.
