With their reputation and ego on the line as the world's biggest club, does Manchester United finally have what it takes to get back to winning ways? They say that the foundation of a …
Germany vs Ukraine Match Preview
Group C is an intriguing one, featuring Germany, a side many expect to go far in the competition. The World Cup holders will be eager to add the European Championships to their impressive trophy haul, but they have lost some key experienced players since Brazil, so they are not the same side that lifted the game's most coveted prize. The majority of the players are still available though and they will be expecting to reach the semi-finals at a minimum. …
Manchester United Stroll to Victory
Robbie Savage on his BBC 606 Talkshow called Manchester City a "shambles". To have spent north of £500m in 4 years and be fielding Martin Demichelis and Jesus Navas he has a point. Even Raheem Sterling has been embarrassing of late, and that £49m piece of business looks very shrewd by Liverpool. The ghost of Pep Guardiola is weighing very heavily on this City squad and some cynics amongst the City fans are suggesting Pellegrini is purposely or spitefully ensuring …
Can Manchester United cope without Rooney and De Gea?
Recent injuries to Manchester United's captain and their star keeper have undoubtedly come as a big blow to Louis Van Gaal and his team.

He feels Schweinsteiger has been too cautious in his play for the Old Trafford club and the former United midfielder thinks it's a result of how Van Gaal has asked his team to play. The German midfielder arrived at Old Trafford from Bayern Munich in the summer and he's become a regular in Louis van Gaal's team alongside either Michael Carrick or Morgan Schneiderlin in midfield. But Scholes believes Schweinsteiger, …

What Went Wrong For Manchester United vs Arsenal
Manchester United suffered an embarrassing loss at the hands of Arsenal at the Emirates stadium on Sunday. Nothing really went the Red Devils' way right from the beginning. The United players seemed to be hopelessly unaware of the fact that the game had actually begun; in fact they looked tired and half-asleep. Arsenal were two goals ahead after seven minutes, before Alexis Sanchez added a third 12 minutes later, and it felt like United left themselves with a virtually impossible …
Projecting Manchester United's Starting XI and Formation vs Spurs
Manchester United fans' wait is almost over, with the Red Devils hosting Tottenham on Saturday morning in their first Premier League fixture of the new season. It is also the season's first competitive game at Old Trafford, a stadium to which European football will return after a one-year hiatus. Louis van Gaal's has masterminded another transfer-filled summer, and may not be done just yet. The sale of record Premier League signing Angel di Maria to Paris Saint-Germain is nearly complete, with …
