Weekend Preview - 8 Aug 2015

Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur

Welcome to the new season of the Barclays Premier League and our game against Tottenham is the first game to play in the new season.

We have done some transfer business in the offseason and recruited Bastian Schweinsteiger, Morgan Schneiderlin, Matteo Darmian and Memphis Depay.

Angel Di Maria has left for PSG. We never really feel the loss as he never adapt to England's culture. We have past experiences with South American players mainly Sebastian Veron and Kleberson and never really succeeded in adapting it. Wonder why Man Utd management manage to miss it and went on to buy Di Maria? Marketing and commerical decision?

Tottenham just finish their friendlies and have only 48hrs of rest before this match and we have a lengthy rest since the last friendly against PSG. A case of gaining an early advantage in the title race?

Man Utd is giving 1 ball handicap. Somehow it suggest to me that Man Utd is intend to fly off the block the moment whistle is blow. Take Man Utd for the win and handicap.
