Rooney Makes Goalscoring Return As Manchester United Trounce Fulham
The champions have breathing space at the top thanks to a commanding show against a hapless Fulham...
It took them a while, but the champions finally have their feet under the table at the summit of the Premier League. With tonight's win over an outclassed Fulham, Sir Alex Ferguson's side move five points clear of Liverpool, and have now played as many games as their Anfield counterparts.
Roy Hodgson is still left contemplating away-day blues; that's no wins from 13 on the road. Home form will need to be exploited if the London side are to sustain their decent season to this point.
The Cottagers, in truth tonight, scarcely made a game of this. United were out of sight by half time, and could even afford the luxury of having two further opening period strikes disallowed. Paul Scholes and Dimitar Berbatov scored legitimately, while the Bulgarian and Carlos Tevez had offside goals annulled.
The second half saw Wayne Rooney welcomed back to duty, and the Scouser responded with a goal on the hour. Moments later and Edwin Van Der Sar celebrated overtaking Abel Resino's long-standing record without concession.
The impressive run continues, the clean-sheet record extends to 14 matches, that's over 1,300 minutes if you're counting.

ReplyDeleteYes the MANCS are on a run, They havent conceded in I dont know how long. The toppies defining moment will come at Inter.
As a Liverpool Fan how can I surrender. The Mancs and Liverpool have tough European games and then they clash in the Jihad. After the MANC vs LIVERPOOL GAME, Then we start panicking
I must also admit that We f#4ken threw away precious points against Stoke and the other minnows......
and yes we are to blame.....
But dont count your chickens yet. two monts still to go
It did look like a training session out there last night. Scholesy was spraying the ball all over the place 30 yards sometimes and perfectly on his teammates foot. I mean even Gibson switched a 30 yarder perfectly to the right wing for Evans, that tells you we controlled it entirely. VDS is also looking good and the defence looks solid for now.
ReplyDeleteWhere's Azee? Rooney on the scoresheet again, with his first touch of the ball.
Swoosh theres still a helluva lot of football to be played. Anything can happen. It's not over till May.

ReplyDeleteSwoooooooooooosh, we will meet in the community shield next season coz we going to win everything and you scouzers will come second in the league, but don't count your eggs before they hatch not chickens coz chickens don't hatch, the eggs hatch. Maybe liverflops don't even make 2nd place.
