Weekend Review - 19 Dec 2009


Fulham vs Manchester United



"David Beckham has his wishes granted to face his former team since moving to Real Madrid in 2003."
-Gary, 19 Dec 2009


Seriously if every manager were to be like Mick McCathy, it will defeat the purpose of having a handicap giving so high yet it so easily overcome, where he field 2nd team to face Man Utd.

I can see where Arsene Wenger is coming from as i feel that Mick McCathy is resigned to losing to Man Utd rather than putting a strong team to deny Man Utd the chance to defend their title.

Even the stats suggest that Thomasz Kuszczak have a quiet game where he didnt have to make a single save!!

Fulham is doing well since the appointment of Roy Hodgson. Last season was the first time they qualified for Europa League for finishing 7th, ahead of Tottenham. This season they have qualified for the last 32 where they will face Shaktar Donetsk, the last winner of the UEFA Cup. Not only that, Man Utd is also facing AC Milan where Man Utd last lost in the Champions League before going onto a 2 year winning run, and ended this season with a defeat to Besiktas. David Beckham has his wishes granted to face his former team since moving to Real Madrid in 2003.

Fulham Team News: Simon Davis, Diomansy Kamara and Andrew Johnson are out.

Man Utd Team News: Nani, Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville, Edwin van der Sar, Wes Brown, Jonny Evans, John O'Shea, Rio Ferdinand and Owen Hargreaves are out.

Odds and Analysis: Man Utd is giving 1 ball. I believe Fergie will be saving the best over the festive season, hence might be an odd goal winner. No punt.
