On Monday morning the vitriol had started. From the #MoyesOut campaign on Twitter to the fallout in the press for Manchester United’s demolition by their city rivals.

For the first time since Michael Owen, Manchester United are starting a season without a player wearing the number 7 shirt.

With rolling 24-hour sports channels and the social media flourishing more than ever, it should not come as a great surprise that what happens off the pitch is now given more scrutiny than what happens on it. The lust for breaking news and getting ‘the story’ has accelerated out of control, while providing in-depth tactical […]
It’s transfer deadline day and Manchester United, after another inept performance, are yet to make a signing that can add any dimension to the squad.

He’s leaving, he’s not leaving; he wants to go, he doesn’t want to go; will they, won’t they? – as is the case every year, this year’s transfer window has its share of uncertainty and late surge in excitement with the season kicking off in less than a week. Here’s a look at the three […]

Former Birmingham City striker Christian Benitez, who was also known as ‘Chucho’, sadly passed away two weeks ago. His countryman, Antonio Valencia, who has given up the #7 shirt at Manchester United to return to the #25 he started his United career with, got a tattoo in memory of Chucho.

For the past one hundred summers (or thereabouts), the transfer window for United fans has played out like a clever analogy for unparalleled frustration; with nothing remotely central-midfieldy to celebrate.
