Manchester United have agreed to personal terms with 20-year-old Tiago Manuel Dias Correia
better known as Bébé.
Bébé, who only 5 weeks ago signed with Portuguese club Vitoria Guimaraes, will cost United
£7.4 million. Prior to signing with Vitoria Bébé was playing in the Portugals third
division.
The USSF has put to rest any uncertainty surrounding the head coaching position of the USMNT by
re-upping Bob Bradley's contract for another four years.
For the record, I'm ambivalent about this decision: I love what he has done with US Soccer over
the past four years, outside of a few questionable lineup decisions winning the 2007 Gold Cup,
beating Spain and nearly doing the same to Brazil in the 09 Confed Cup, finishing first in the
CONCACAF World Cup qualifying and winning a World Cup group for the first time since 1930.
The controversy surrounding the transfer of ‘Bébé shows no sign of abating following
revelations in today's Daily Mail. Former Estrela coach Jorge Paxaio claims Bébé was touted
around Europe, but no one wanted him as they didn't trust him. According to Paxaio, Manchester
United could have signed the Portuguese striker for as little as £150,000 last January.
Controversial new signing Bebe was included in Manchester Uniteds squad for their Champions
League opener at Old Trafford against Rangers. It is believed United originally selected just 24,
excluding both Owen Hargreaves and Bebe, but UEFA confirmed United will take up their full
allocation of 25 with Bebe making the squad.
It was Manchester United's 2nd team defending the Carling Cup title Wednesday night against
Championship side Scunthorpe United.
Kuszczak started in goal with W. Brown, Ferdinand, Smalling and Rafael as his back line.
Ferdinand still struggling with the virus that kept him out of Sundays clash against Liverpool.
Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez does it again, coming on as a substitute in the 81st minute to
score the game winner, against Wolverhampton, just 10 minutes later.
3-2 was the final score in the Carling Cup round of 16 match played at Old Trafford. Chicharitos
goal puts United in through to the last eight of the Carling Cup.
