It seems staying too much in Van Der Sar's shadow has taken a toll on Kuszczak and eventually tension has settled down between the two keepers, although Sir Alex has tried to play down the incident after Kuszczak was quoted on an interview with MUTV as: To be honest, I must say this and Edwin [...] Click to continue reading...

Tomasz Kuszczak has stupidly given an interview with MUTV criticising Edwin Van der Sar for not helping him enough and suggesting that the Dutch goalie doesn't like him.

Oh dear.

"I must say this, Edwin doesn't help me. Maybe he doesn't like me," said Kuszczak. "He's got more experience and many more games under his belt.

"You keep caning me and then you ask for interviews," Owen said, turning down requests to speak about his goal against Wigan to the press.

There is something appealing about Owen's "me against the world" attitude. It's a feeling we so frequently feel against the FA and the press. He became a bit of a laughing stock at Newcastle, something I certainly enjoyed, so it is understandable he wants to stick his fingers up at everyone now he's a Manchester United player.

Patrice Evra, who never fails to impress when he is interviewed, has had a few words with MUTV about a variety of topics, and again does a great job of it.

Bracketed with the best Manchester United talents such as Eric Cantona and George Best. And, of course, there were the goals, 117 of them in 289 appearances for United. Nobody should doubt his ability or impact in his 6 years at the Old Trafford."Cristiano has been a marvellous player for Manchester United. Click to continue reading...

Cristiano Ronaldo has polarised opinions like few others before him - as a global icon his popularity is matched by few other footballers (David Beckham comes to mind) and on the pitch he dazzles and frustrates in equal measures. Unrealistic expectations? Unfulfilled ability?

What's certain is that he has been, over the last 3 years, the best player at Manchester United and his impact in his 6 years at the Old Trafford is unquestionable.
