United patience over Owen



Manchester United are breaking Michael Owen in
gently at Old Trafford following his surprise free transfer move from
Newcastle in the summer.Owen marked his return to the starting
XI at Barnsley, after being on the bench against Liverpool, with his
third goal of the season in the Carling Cup victory.
It now remains to be seen whether he will retain his place on
Saturday when United return to league business following the 2-0 defeat
at Anfield.
Blackburn are next up at Old Trafford, and assistant manager Mike Phelan is pleased with Owen's progress.
He said: "Michael has come to Manchester United as it a fresh challenge for him.
"We can use him as and when we need to use him. He is not at the forefront of everything.
"It gives him time to prepare and be ready for games like Barnsley.
Alternatively we can bring him on as substitute or start him in a first
team game."
Phelan believes Owen's finishing power has not diminished and his
goal against Barnsley was a prime example of the striker's art.
"Michael is always looking and always on the move," said the assistant boss.
"He was quick to take the shot. He got it out of his feet quickly and caught the keeper by surprise.
"That is the quality of Michael Owen and those qualities are of benefit to us."
Meanwhile, United have submitted a claim of mistaken identity to the
Football Association after Fabio da Silva was booked by referee Chris
Foy against Barnsley.
Instead the offender - for a challenge on Jamal Campbell-Ryce - was his twin brother Rafael.
The FA confirmed they have been approached by United and the submission will be heard on Tuesday by a regulatory commission.
The Brazilian twins helped United secure a place in the last eight
of the competition thanks to a 2-0 victory against the Coca-Cola
Championship side.
However the holders finished the game with 10 men after Foy sent off Gary Neville for clattering into Adam Hammill.
Neville is now ruled out of the Blackburn match as he starts a
three-match suspension while Darren Fletcher remains doubtful with a
groin problem.

Manchester United 2-0 Blackburn



Dimitar Berbatov and Wayne Rooney goals got Manchester United back on track in the Barclays Premier League.Sir
Alex Ferguson's side had enough chances to notch up a bigger scoreline
but substitute Gabriel Obertan missed a couple of sitters.
Berbatov made the breakthrough in the 55th minute but it was not until two minutes from time Rooney made the points safe.
It means they keep the pressure on Chelsea and Arsenal at the top of the table in their aim to win a fourth successive title.
United must have wondered how they were still on level terms at half-time given the amount of possession they enjoyed.
As early as the third minute Nani sent a 20-yard shot whistling past
the post following a marvellous crossfield pass from Wes Brown.
A mistake by Blackburn defender Chris Samba let in Antonio Valencia
10 minutes later but he failed to take advantage and scuffed a shot off
target.
It was a clear opportunity and Blackburn looked nervous at the back
at this stage following the mauling by Chelsea last weekend and nine
straight defeats on the road.
However the visitors responded in the 21st minute and El-Hadji Diouf
got into a good position, only for John O'Shea to make a crucial
interception.
United stepped up the pressure and Pascal Chimbonda did well to
block a shot from Berbatov in the 29th minute after Patrice Evra played
the ball in.
A minute later Berbatov nearly made the breakthrough with a downward header following a cross from Valencia.
However goalkeeper Paul Robinson reacted superbly and turned the Bulgarian's effort over the bar.
Blackburn responded and Samba peeled away from his marker as David Dunn delivered the corner, only to head wide of the target.
It was brief respite for the visitors as Berbatov was again denied by Robinson in the 34th minute after being set up by Rooney.
This was a difficult spell for Blackburn and Berbatov found the net
after Rooney had squared the ball to him in the 40th minute, only to be
ruled offside.
Then Nani misdirected his header from inside the area following a corner from Valencia as Blackburn held out until half-time.
United pushed forward in the 53rd minute after Nani won the ball off Gael Givet.
The midfielder attempted to release Rooney but the pass was hopelessly misplaced and the move broke down.
Anderson then picked out Evra, who had raced into the area, only for his touch to let him down and Robinson was able to collect.
United made the breakthrough when Berbatov showed good skill when he got on the end of a cross from Evra.
He got the better of Ryan Nelsen, twisting and turning before sending a shot beyond Robinson for his fourth goal of the season.
United boss Ferguson decided to make a change after 64 minutes bringing on Obertan for the ineffective Nani.
Obertan made a delayed debut in the Carling Cup victory against Barnsley in midweek after recovering a back injury.
He almost made a dream start in the 67th minute following a defence splitting pass by Anderson.
Former Bordeaux winger Obertan raced away only to send a weak shot into the arms of a grateful Robinson.
Berbatov came off in the 79th minute and replaced by Michael Owen, who scored in the cup victory against Barnsley.
United should have extended their lead in the 83rd minute but
Obertan again fluffed his lines. Clear in front of goal as Valencia
played the ball into his path, he snatched at the chance and sent his
effort wide.
Obertan then had a hand in United's second goal in the 88th minute when he found Anderson on the left flank.
The Brazilian sent a good ball into the area and Rooney was the first to react with a sweet finish.
Substitute Nikola Kalinic found the net for Blackburn in stoppage
time but his effort was ruled offside before Owen sent a shot wide.

United bertuah sebab Rooney

ROONEY dimasukkan sebagai pemain gantian ketika menentang CSKA Moscow di Old Trafford semalam.

LONDON - Tuah anak.
Mungkin itu yang sesuai digambarkan ke atas Wayne Rooney selepas dia
meraikan kelahiran anak lelaki pertamanya, Kai dengan membantu
Manchester United mara ke pusingan kalah mati Liga Juara-Juara awal
pagi semalam.
Begitupun, United nyaris dimalukan CSKA Moscow apabila sekadar
mencatatkan keputusan seri 3-3 pada aksi yang berlangsung di Old
Trafford.
"Saya tidak berniat untuk memasukkannya (Rooney) secepat ini tetapi
kami memang memerlukan sentuhannya di barisan hadapan," kata pengurus
United, Alex Ferguson.
"Dia tidak cukup tidur dan saya lebih suka meletakkannya di bangku
simpanan. Dia seorang pemain yang mana kami tahu kami boleh
menggunakannya jika perlu.
"Tenaga dan tahap keyakinannya sangat tinggi. Dia berjaya memberi impak dalam sesuatu perlawanan.
"Dia seorang pemain yang bagus dan sentiasa memiliki keupayaan
menjaringkan gol. Cuma nasibnya tidak begitu baik malam ini (semalam)
untuk dia menjaringkan gol."
CSKA mendahului menerusi jaringan pembukaan Alan Dzagoyev pada minit
ke-25 sebelum Michael Owen menyamakan kedudukan empat minit kemudian.
Milos Krasic dan Vasily Berezutsky masing-masing meledak satu gol untuk kembali meletakkan CSKA selesa di hadapan 3-1.
United terpaksa menanti sehingga Rooney dimasukkan sebagai pemain
gantian pada minit ke-57 sebelum Paul Scholes menjaringkan gol kedua The Red Devils enam minit sebelum perlawanan berakhir.
Ketika perlawanan seakan-akan memihak kepada pasukan pelawat, United
memperoleh gol penyamaan hasil jaringan pertahanan CSKA, Georgy
Shchennikov pada masa kecederaan.

United bukan saingan Chelsea

TERRY berjaya menanduk masuk gol kemenangan The Blues di Stamford Bridge malam tadi.

LONDON - Chelsea terus mengukuhkan kedudukan mereka sebagai
pendahulu Liga Perdana England selepas menundukkan pencabar utama,
Manchester United 1-0 di Stamford Bridge malam tadi.
Kapten England, John Terry muncul wira The Blues apabila menanduk masuk gol kemenangan hasil sepakan percuma Frank Lampard pada minit ke-76.
Begitupun, gol tersebut mendapat bantahan daripada pemain United
yang mendakwa Didier Drogba yang cuba membuat percubaan susulan telah
berada dalam posisi ofsaid.
Tersentak dengan jaringan itu, United memasukkan Michael Owen dan Gabriel Obertan untuk mencari gol penyamaan, namun pertahanan The Blues kental mengekang setiap asakan The Red Devils itu.
Namun Chelsea pula memasukkan pertahanan Brazil, Alex dalam usaha untuk mempertahankan tiga mata berharga itu.
Dengan kejayaan ini, Chelsea kini mengumpul 30 mata, lima mata
mengatasi Arsenal yang menang 4-1 ke atas Wolverhampton Wanderers Sabtu
lalu dan The Red Devils pula kekal di tangga ketiga dengan 25 mata.
Perlawanan lain pula menyaksikan Hull City menewaskan Stoke City
2-1, Everton menang 2-1 ke atas West Ham United manakala Wigan Athletic
dan Fulham pula seri 1-1.

Obertan targets regular spot



Manchester United new-boy Gabriel Obertan has given himself a year to become an Old Trafford regular.Obertan joined the Red Devils from Bordeaux this summer after a recommendation from former player Laurent Blanc.
However, the France Under-21 star's career immediately stalled when
he was forced to undergo knee surgery that kept him out for the best
part of four months.
Obertan finally made his debut in the Carling Cup victory at
Barnsley last month and has since gone on to make two more appearances
for Sir Alex Ferguson's men - both as a substitute.
Although he has looked a little raw at times, particularly in the
Premier League encounter with Blackburn when he fired wide when it
looked easier to score from six yards with the goal at his mercy,
Obertan has shown a smart turn of pace and that he has an abundance of
skill.
He appears to have a pretty determined streak too, judging by the
timescale he has set for forcing his way into Ferguson's starting
line-up on a regular basis.
"I wanted to feel part of the squad and be involved in the games, so I am feeling really good right now," said the 20-year-old.
"At first I just want to be part of the squad, be in the group that
travels to all the games, and get a few minutes on the pitch.
"But I have ambition. If I keep working hard and show what I can do, why not aim to be a regular in the team?
"I might need a year to achieve that, but I hope I can do it."

Manchester United 3-0 Everton



Darren Fletcher added another entry to his CV as he launched Manchester United on their way to a 3-0 victory over Everton.Although
they were already well on top against the Merseysiders who, apart from
a brief five-minute second-half flurry were completely outclassed,
United were struggling to make the breakthrough until Fletcher fired
home a magnificent volley.
Michael Carrick and Antonio Valencia were also on target to complete
the Red Devils' biggest win since August and ensure they heeded Sir
Alex Ferguson's pre-match call for a more clinical attitude.
Over the past 12 months, Fletcher has emerged as one of the most influential players in the Premier League.
The Scot's style might not be to everyone's taste - Arsene Wenger labelled him "anti-football" earlier this season.
But his value to the Red Devils is immeasurable, to the point he was
shifted to right-back when Paul Scholes was introduced after an hour.
Indeed, May's sobering Champions League final defeat to Barcelona in
May was part of a sequence that has seen Fletcher miss seven of
United's last nine defeats.
His effectiveness, it has to be admitted, is mostly destructive.
However, he scored twice in the thrilling derby win over Manchester
City in September and Fletcher is making a point of getting himself
into goalscoring positions more often.
He did not exactly have the Everton goal at his mercy though as
Antonio Valencia stretched to nod a deep Patrice Evra cross into his
path 10 minutes before the break.
On the edge of the area, surrounded by visiting defenders, David Moyes might even have been relatively relaxed.
How wrong he would have been. With one swinging boot of the right
foot, Fletcher sent the ball curling into the top corner, giving former
team-mate Tim Howard no chance.
The goal at least provided United with some tangible reward for their overwhelming domination of possession.
Chances were at a premium, with Wayne Rooney going close and Ryan Giggs testing Howard, both efforts from the edge of the area.
Ferguson could not have had that in mind when he penned programme
notes that called for a more clinical edge and a return to the form
that saw United score five at Wigan, three at Tottenham and four to
beat City.
Indeed, Everton, for all their failure to keep hold of the ball,
also had a couple of decent long-range efforts, through Jack Rodwell
and Louis Saha - returning to Old Trafford for the first time since
calling time on his four-and-a-half injury-plagued years at the start
of last season.
Moyes was more vexed about an aerial collision between Nemanja Vidic
and Johnny Heitinga that left the Dutchman with a nasty cut to his
head, the inference from the Everton camp was clearly that an elbow had
been used.
It was a point Moyes made to the fourth official at half-time,
although by that stage he had decided direct intervention was needed.
The introduction of Ayegbeni Yakubu for Dan Gosling took a while to
have an impact but for a five-minute spell just after the hour mark, it
had the hosts in trouble.
Everton's best chance fell to the Nigerian himself after he had muscled his way round Wes Brown.
Yakubu has scored for three previous clubs - Maccabi Haifa,
Portsmouth and Middlesbrough - against United and must have thought he
had completed a remarkable four-timer when he sent his shot fizzing
towards the bottom corner.
Edwin Van der Sar was struggling but, unfortunately for the visitors, it went just wide.
It was just the invitation United needed to seal the contest.
By his own high standards, Giggs had endured a quiet evening.
But, in exactly the right position to retrieve a Rooney shot that
would have gone for a throw, the veteran Welshman quickly spotted
Carrick on the edge of the area.
It is just the situation Carrick thrives on and he placed a low, precise shot into the corner, again leaving Howard helpless.
Valencia bagged a third when he strode on to Scholes' lay-off to
ensure United remained five points adrift of Chelsea and, with injuries
beginning to bite at Arsenal, the title race already looks to be
narrowing to two.

United terus tampil garang


LONDON - West Ham United tumbang di gelanggang sendiri.
Mereka tewas 0-4 kepada Manchester United yang tampil dengan kelas tersendiri pada perlawanan Liga Perdana England semalam.
Hari gemilang United itu bermula pada minit-minit terakhir separuh
masa pertama apabila mereka meledak gol pembukaan menerusi rembatan
Paul Scholes.
Rentak garang skuad bimbingan Alex Ferguson itu berterusan pada
separuh masa kedua dengan Darron Gibson tampil sebagai penjaring gol
kedua pada minit ke-61 diikuti jaringan Antonia Valencia pada minit
ke-70 sebelum Wayne Rooney melengkapkan hari bergaya itu dengan gol
keempat pada minit ke-72.
"Kami semakin yakin dan keyakinan inilah yang telah membawa kemenangan.
"Momentum cemerlang ini akan dipertahankan dalam usaha untuk terus
bersaing memburu gelaran liga," kata Ferguson selepas perlawanan itu.
"Kami akan terus memberi tekanan kepada Chelsea."
Dalam perlawanan lain semalam, Arsenal turut melakar kemenangan
selepas menewaskan Stoke City 2-0 menerusi jaringan Andrei Arshavin
pada minit ke-26) dan Aaron Ramsey (minit ke-79).
Arsenal sepatutnya boleh menang selesa pada perlawana itu tetapi
sepakan penalti yang mereka peroleh pada minit ke-21 gagal
disempurnakan oleh Cesc Fabregas.
Aston Villa turut cemerlang apabila menang 3-0 ke atas Hull City sementara Portsmouth pula menang 2-0 ke atas Burnley.
Turut mencatat kemenangan ialah Birmingham yang menang 3-2 ke atas
Wigan sementara Liverpool terus tertekan selepas sekadar seri tanpa
jaringan dengan Blackburn.
Wolves pula menang 2-1 ke atas Bolton di gelanggang sendiri. -

Wolfsburg 1-3 Manchester United
Michael Owen scored a famous hat-trick as Manchester United made light of their injury woes to record a memorable win over Wolfsburg.
A measure of United's achievement was that it represented only a third win in 10 attempts against German opposition in Europe. The fact they did it with over a dozen key men missing made the feat all the more remarkable.
It was Owen's first three-timer since he joined the Old Trafford side in the summer - and his first for anyone since 2005 - and will undoubtedly go down as one of his finest on a night when United had their backs against the wall.
The result confirms a seeding in the knockout round draw a week on Friday which in itself does not guarantee easier opposition but at least ensured Old Trafford will host a second leg rather than a first.
An already complicated qualification picture had become even more murky following confirmation earlier in the day that two CSKA Moscow players had tested positive for banned substances following their meeting with United at Old Trafford last month.
As it left the Russians facing expulsion at a UEFA disciplinary hearing on December 17, it raised the possibility of United having to appeal for their top-spot status, or Wolfsburg begging to maintain interest in the competition until the day before the last round of 16 draw.
Sir Alex Ferguson knew the best way of avoiding such anxiety was to win.
Yet to achieve that would be a monumental feat given he landed in Germany without 14 recognised senior players, including eight defenders.
United had prospered from weakened situations before. But never had they been so badly depleted.
Michael Carrick was handed a sweeper's role, with Darren Fletcher and Patrice Evra flanking the England international as Ferguson abandoned his traditional back four.
As the highly-rated Edin Dzeko was part of Wolfsburg's strikeforce, statisticians were busy spending their pre-match discussions wondering if United were set for a record European defeat.
As it turned out, a repeat of their five goal hammering by Sporting Lisbon in 1964, or even a 4-0 spanking by Barcelona in the early Champions League days when the controversial 'three foreigners' rule handicapped a Red Devils side good enough to have won the domestic double the previous spring, never looked likely.
Zvjezdan Misimovic headed a good chance over and Tomasz Kuszczak made a couple of decent saves to deny Makoto Hasebe.
But with a bit of good fortune, namely when Carrick slid in on Hasebe and appeared to bring the wide-man down inside the area without making contact with the ball, and a lot of perseverance, they survived without conceding a goal.
A scoreless opening period would have been well received by Ferguson. Owen's goal made it a perfect opening 45 minutes.
The former Liverpool star has probably not had the impact hoped for when he joined United in the summer and his hopes of going to the World Cup next summer appear to have receded to non-existent.
But Owen remains a master at finding space. And when Nani drifted over a cross from the left 60 seconds before the break, he had evaded the home defence for long enough to give him time to steer his header into the far corner.
But the job was only half done and Ferguson must have known a Wolfsburg bombardment was coming.
Having attacked mostly down their right - trying to expose the least defensively competent wing-back, Nani - Wolfsburg changed their point of attack, knowing Park Ji-sung was not being protected by an orthodox defender.
Marcel Schafer had already fizzed over one cross from the left that Carrick had smashed clear when he had another go at picking out Dzeko.
The Bosnian was astute enough to get between Carrick and Evra, so when the cross arrived perfectly in the centre of the six-yard box, Dzeko rose unchallenged to send a textbook header flying past Kuszczak.
With over half an hour remaining, it appeared United's defensive heroics would be in vain.
But some sturdy defending kept Wolfsburg at bay and when substitute Gabriel Obertan glided into the home box and drilled a cross to the far post, Owen was waiting to tap home.
The qualification picture was suddenly, for United at any rate, much clearer.
Owen's third, when he streaked through after Wolfsburg had wasted their final chance, merely added a notable footnote.

MANCHESTER: Manchester United hari ini mengumumkan penyerang Portugal, Tiago Manuel Dias Correia — atau dikenali sebagai Bebe — akan berpindah dari Kelab Vitoria Guimaraes ke Old Trafford sekiranya lulus ujian perubatan.

Manchester United berkata, pemain berusia 20 tahun itu bersetuju dengan syarat yang ditetapkan tetapi enggan memberikan butiran pembelian.

Pemain itu bagaimanapun akan menyertai United sedikit lewat daripada awal musim yang bermula hujung minggu ini.

United sebelum ini mendapatkan khidmat penyerang antarabangsa Mexico, Javier Hernandez, 22, yang berpindah dari kelabnya, Guadalajara. - Update via iPhone
