United marching on to victory
Saturday 7th March 2015
EPL - Match Day 29
Man Utd
Nemanja Vidic (4), Cristiano Ronaldo (32, 80), Wayne Rooney (59), Chicharito (63)
W Rooney - Chicharito
Nani - G Amaya - M Jones - C Ronaldo
G Bale - J Evans - N Vidic (c) - P Evra

MoM: Cristiano Ronaldo (9.5)
Manchester United didn't raise any eyebrows with their destruction of Sheffield United at Old Trafford today in a comprehensive 5 - 0 victory. Manchester United turned their possession into goals with a 5 - 0 win over Sheffield United a brace from Cristiano Ronaldo helped Man Utd to victory.
Things did not get off to a good start for Sheff Utd as Serbia and Man Utd captain Nemanja Vidic seized on an error by ex Manchester United player Darron Gibson to sscore a well timed close range finish. Legendary winger Cristiano Ronaldo doubled Manchester United's lead with a well timed close range finish on 32 minutes.
Serbia and Man Utd captain Nemanja Vidic then received a straight red card for a vicious fould on 51 minutes to put Man Utd's position under question. However it was the Red Devils who scored the next with Wayne Rooney scoring a tame effort from close to goal in the 59th minute to extend the lead further.
Mexican Striker Chicharito then added to the lead with a powerful close range effort on 63 minutes. There were no prizes for guessing who completed the rout on 80 minutes as that man Cristiano Ronaldo popped up again with a tidy finish.

Cristiano Ronaldo made it 4 in 2 as he inspired Manchester United to a 6 - 1 victory and 10 - 2 aggregate scoreline. Once again the Red Devils got off to an absolute flyer with Chicharito opening the scoring with a wonderfully neat finish from close range. It was Welsh sensation Marc Jones who scored the second goal with a fantastic long ranged effort. A howler from Alex Smithies then allowed Wayne Rooney the opportunity to slot the ball into an empty net. Welliton then scored a neat finish from close range to grab a consolation goal for Spartak. Marc Jones turned provider for Cristiano Ronaldo to grab a close range header to make it 4 - 1 for the Red Devils. Wayne Rooney and Ronaldo both scored their second goals of the game as United ran out 10 - 2 aggregate winners.

Haha cheers buddy
will get some more updates tonight Champions League Quarter Final Draw
Saturday 14th March 2015
Today is the highly anticipated Quarter Final draw of the Champions League Quarter Final draw. Managers of all the clubs still remaining in the competition will be looking at the potential match up that their teams could face and will be looking for some of the weaker candidates left in the competition. However, with this being the Champions League Quarter Final all of the teams that are here are here on merit and will prove difficult opponents.
Last years winners Manchester United are still the out and out favourites for the competition with them being top scorers in the competition scoring an incredible 44 goals so far in the competition, 20 ahead of second placed Real Madrid on 24. Barcelona the competitions second favourites will no doubt be looking forward to the draw and hoping to avoid their main competitors Manchester United having not beaten them since the Champions League Final in 2009. Spain have the stand out teams in the Quarter Final draw having an incredible 4 out of 8 teams are from Spain, being At. Madrid, Barcelona, R. Madrid and Villareal.
Quarter Final Draw
St. Rennais
Barcelona
Real Madrid
Man Utd
With Manchester United drawn against Athletico Madrid in the Quarter Final draw there is no doubt that the Manchester club will fancy their chances. With the second match being played away at Estadio de Madrid, they will no doubt be hoping to get off to a good start and get a good lead to take to Spain. The other stand out draw is the clash between Real Madrid and Olympique Lyonnais who will no doubt be hoping to revisit the form that saw them knock out Real Madrid back in the 2010 Champions League 1st Knockout stage.

United face Ipswich in FA Cup Quarter Final Match
Saturday 14th March 2015
IPSWICH VS MAN UTD
Manchester United are preparing for yet another away tie in the competition, as they travel to the South East to face Ipswich Town in the FA Cup Quarter Final in a match that is once again highly anticipated with many people hoping for a giant killing. Manchester United are once again expected to name a somewhat youthful side as Sir Ryan looks to maintain the form and fitness of his star players ahead of a busy run in towards the end of the season. Manchester United will however no doubt fancy their chances against Ipswich today as they get a step closer to claiming consecutive FA Cup titles.
Ipswich are currently lying in 18th position in the Championship and have been struggling to find form, lying only 9 points clear of the relegation zone it looks like they are facing tough times ahead. There is no doubt that the Championship outfit will be looking at boosting their survival chances by building momentum by defeating Manchester United at Portman Road. Ipswich have a fully fit squad ahead of the FA Cup clash and will no doubt really be going for it as they hope to qualify for the Semi Final.

Sir Ryan Giggs has somewhat surprised many people naming a stronger side against Ipswich Town today, with Cristiano Ronaldo starting up front which proves the main surprise. Juan Manuel Vargas comes in with Antonio Valencia on the flanks who will no doubt provide great width in the side. Darren Fletcher also comes in at the heart of midfield to add a bit of steel and experience for United as they prepare to qualify for the FA Cup Semi Final at Wembley Stadium.

Vargas stars as Ipswich brushed aside
FA Cup - Quarter Final Match
Ipswich
Antonio Valencia (32), Cristiano Ronaldo (34), Boakye (85)
Despite a somewhat below par performance from the Red Devils they eventually ran out 3 - 0 winners against a resilient Championship outfit in Ipswich at Portman Road today. It took United until the 32nd minute to break the deadlock with the Championship side holding their own until Antonio Valencia scored a close range header from a Juan Manuel Vargas cross to make it 1 - 0 to United. The second goal came just 2 minutes later with Cristiano Ronaldo hitting a powerful volley to make it 2 - 0 before half time. That man Boakye then popped up in the 85th minute to grab his 15th Cup goal in 10 matches. An incredible effort from the young Ghanaian.

Yeh I've got the option to sign Aguero on a free at the end of the season, but not sure I fancy him, think I want to give the youth more of an opportunity. He won't get a game with Rooney and Chicharito, although Berbatov is getting old
Cheers buddy
just playing Wolves at the moment!! What you think of the potential free signing of Aguero?Cheers buddy
Erm, i'd sign him because he was free to be honest lol, playing behind the strikers

Yeh I am considering going to 3 centre backs and a 5 man midfield with 2 up front next season, but not sure because I lose Bale and Rafael's bombing forward! lol
Yeah, but then again, why change a winning formula? I'd bring him in for back up

United come from behind twice to defeat plucky Wolves
Saturday 21st March 2015
EPL - Match Day 30
Wolves
David Jones (1), Kevin Doyle (19) - Sam Merritt (7), Chicharito (59), Wayne Rooney (88)
W Rooney - Chicharito
Nani - G Amaya - M Jones - C Ronaldo
G Bale - J Evans - S Merritt (c) - P Evra

Rooney was delighted to score a late winner for United
MoM: Marc Jones (8.5)
Wolves put in a fantastic performance against the Red Devils today forcing them to come back twice in an effort to maintain their incredible unbeaten run under Sir Ryan Giggs. It was Welsh midfielder David Jones who opened the scoring with a fantastic strike from 30 yards that left Jose Campodonico stranded on his line looking shocked. Manchester United came back into the game 6 minutes later when Marc Jones put a fantastic cross from a corner to the far post where the 16 year old scored a powerful headed effort. Wolves then came back at United and Kevin Doyle score a wonderful goal from the edge of the area after defender Jonny Evans was caught out at the back.
Manchester United went into the break with their heads down and looked exhausted after many of the players had already played over 50 matches. It was an inspirational speech given by Sir Ryan Giggs that changed the outcome of this game. When the United team emerged from the tunnel before the kick off in the second half they looked revitalised and ready for the challenge that lied ahead. The second half was very different to the first with Manchester United completely dominating possession and that paid its dividends in the 59th minute after a great through ball from Chicharito who fired a powerful effort past the keeper. Manchester United broke Wolves hearts in the 88th minute when Chicharito worked well down the right flank before playing Wayne Rooney into the centre of the park who fired a shot in by the near post to make it 3 - 2.
Yeh pretty much secured buddy just playing first team to make sure continue scoring loads of goals lol, and want to break records set by myself

Wales face Qatar in International Friendly
Saturday 28th March 2015
QATAR VS WALES
Three years ahead of the 2018 World Cup in Qatar, Wales were invited to face the Asian side in the Khalifa International Stadium, Doha. Sir Ryan Giggs accepted this challenge because he felt it would be a great opportunity for the team to take their focus away from the run in to have a welcome break before returning for the final push as United close in on the final three competitions remaining. Ahead of the friendly match Wales have once again had many withdrawals and an injury with Sam Vokes, Simon Church, Neil Eardley withdrawn and defender Chris Gunter suffering a twisted knee whilst in training with the squad.

Ched Evans (45+1), Andy King (46), Joe Ledley (82)
Despite not scoring Bale was a constant threat for Wales
There were no surprises in Doha today as Wales ran out 3 - 0 winners against the Asian side. It was a man of the match performance from a certain Marc Jones who once again provided the team with 2 goals thanks to his unbelievable vision and creative mind. It did take Wales a while to break the deadlock but it eventually came when ever improving Ched Evans grabbed a goal in first half injury team thanks to a neat finish from just inside the area. Andy King then grabbed his 19th international goal in the 46th minute thanks to some wonderful work from central midfielder Marc Jones. It was two substitutes that came on to score from a corner with David Vaughan putting a fantastic ball into the box for Joe Ledley to put a powerful header into the net.
