After opening 2011 by capturing a late (and perhaps a little lucky) win at West Brom, Manchester
United look to maintain their hold on top spot in the Premier League as they host Stoke City
tomorrow night.
Against the Baggies, United took an early lead through Wayne Rooney, who scored his first goal
from open play since March.
Ever since Arsenal were drawn against FC Barcelona in the Champions League people have said that we
are on a hiding to nothing and that it will be like men against boys.
Pretty much everyone on this Earth, and their dog, believes that it is simply a formality that
Barcelona will crush us. We will be destroyed, or if you like, Barcered.
Skysports.com understands Liverpool have made a firm enquiry for Robert Huth.
However, Stoke appear intent on keeping the Germany international.
Huth has played over 20 times for the Potters already this season and is proving he is well over
the fitness concerns which blighted his previous spells with Chelsea and Middlesbrough.
