1909 saw Ernest Mangnall's men win United's first FA Cup, against Bristol City. Now Nike has agreed
to remake Manchester United's historic 1909 FA Cup Final kit for the 2009-2010 season. Nike will be
using modern high-tech materials and not heavy cotton, with a white V-shape on a red shirt
instead of the red V-on-white [.
The Houston Dynamo didn't have a high pick in the 2009 MLS Draft but the Western Conference
power still might boast one of the most exciting young players coming into MLS this season.
The Dynamo has completed the signing of U.S. Under-20 star Felix Garcia, acquiring his rights
from the PDL Laredo Heat for an undisclosed transfer fee, sources confirmed to SBI on Tuesday
night.
Ronaldo's luxury sports car's front end was smashed to pieces and it lost a wheel as he collided
with a roadside barrier while driving to training, the morning after a disappointing defeat for his
team. Ronaldo's team-mate Edwin van der Sar, United's goakeeper, was following in his Bentley at
the time of the crash but was [.
Should United wear the Club World Champion Badge of Honor? If you don't know what I'm talking
about, it is the badge AC Milan wore after winning the club world cup in 2007 (Coincidentally FIFA
didn't introduce the badge until a European club won the trophy.) After beating LDU on December
21st of 2008, United gained the [.
If you are a New York Red Bulls fan who was already thinking of attending home games
at Red Bull Arena later this year, you are going to have to wait a while longer for that
experience.
Red Bull Arena will not be completed in time to open during the 2009 MLS season, meaning the
Harrison stadium will now open in 2010.

Sacha Kljestan will not be heading to Celtic, at least not yet, and a winter transfer move is
looking unlikely.
Kljestan's potential January move to the Scottish champions has been scrapped after Celtic
decided that it could not afford the asking price for the U.S. national team midfielder, a package
worth up to $3.
United announced a couple of months ago they had reached agreement with Partizan for the duo, since
when the Red Devils have been attempting to agree personal terms. At one point it was suggested
talks had collapsed as the various parties could not reach a satisfactory conclusion. However, any
outstanding issues have now been resolved, leaving winger [.
Manchester United will host title rivals, Chelsea, on Sunday. Sir Alex stressed the importance of
this match. "That will be a big game. It's unusual to have it in January, it's usually towards
the end of the season," Ferguson told Inside United magazine. "It's been later - in the
last two or three games - for the [.

The Kansas City Wizards have pulled off one of the better moves off the MLS
off-season,re-signing Argentine winger Claudio Lopez to a new contract that will remove Lopez from
the team's Designated Player slot.
Shouldn't United's shirt really say "US Tax Payers" not "AIG" AIG are 18 months
from the end of a £14 million-a-year contract with the Premier League champions, and their
exit comes as little surprise. The company has encountered financial trouble and last year received
a $150bn (£109m) bail-out from the US government.

D.C. United will head into Thursday's MLS Draft with one less need to address after signing one
of its top defenders.
D.C. has signed right back Bryan Namoff to a new contract, sources told SBI on Tuesday.
Even with United's outstanding run to retain the Premier League title, Sir Alex is still
looking to strengthen United's talented midfield as he turns his attention to Wigan Athletic
Honduran midfielder Wilson Palacios. Despite having Carrick, Anderson, Scholes, Giggs, Fletcher,
the injured Hargreaves and recent signing Tosic, Sir Alex is prepared to offer £14 million for
the [.
Hull have secured a deal to sign Manucho on loan for the remainder of the season. The 25-year-old
Angolan has only made on appearance for United in the Barclays Premier League. Personally I think
United should cut him loose. Manucho is 25-years-old and has not shown he has what it takes. Danny
Welbeck is only 18-years-old and [.
In the final minute of normal time, Carlos Tevez used his strength to turn and bundle his way
through Chris Basham and Sebastien Puygrenier and cross the ball to an unmarked Berbatov whose
diving header beat Jussi Jaaskelainen to see them go home with a win despite an unconvincing
performance. This was the fifth consecutive clean [.

Sir Alex Ferguson saw his dreams of landing five trophies kept alive, but admitted that the 2-1 FA
Cup fourth round win over Tottenham came at a cost. Dimitar Berbatov's first-half strike against
his former club settled the tie in United's favour at Old Trafford after a Tom Huddlestone own goal
had cancelled out Roman Pavlyuchenko's [.

Benitez believes Ferguson is getting away with attacks on referees which would not be tolerated
from other managers. He said: "All managers need to know is that only Mr Ferguson can talk
about the fixtures, can talk about referees and nothing happens. "We need to know that I am
talking about facts, not my impression.
