United`s Indonesia Match Off

The hotel bomb blasts in Indonesia, on Thursday have resulted in Manchester United canceling their match against the Indonesian Super League. Pre-season fixtures in Indonesia might not be on United`s agenda for a long time after this..

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office had warned United back in April that it was a “high-risk” place to go to, but the Red Devils still decided to go.

Guaranteed a lot of United`s fans in that part of Asia will be very disappoined at not seeing their heroes.

He`s confident that City will win trophies under manager mark Hughes. United`s loss is definitely City`s gain in this case.

Manchester United`s Buys Well Below £80 Million

Although Fergie is publicly saying he is happy enough with his new signings-Michael Owen, Gabriel Obertan, and Antonio Valencia-few think he`ll be putting the cheque book away just yet for this season.

Ok, he might not get anywhere near spending the £80 million he got for Cristiano Ronaldo, but I can`t see him sticking at his £20 million outlay for new players thus far.

Real Madrid and Manchester City have raised the stakes somewhat with their crazy transfer fees and wage fees. It`s all become too inflated for Ferguson`s liking. He won`t pay over the top fees, but until soemone puts a halt to the transfer madness it`s going to have to be something the Premiership has to put up with.

Ronaldo Unveiled at the Bernabeu

Well at last Cristiano Ronaldo got what he claimed he`s always wanted from childhood-to play for real Madrid.

He was unveiled before an 80,000 crowd at the Bernabeu yesterday, keeping the police busy trying to stop Ronaldo`s adoring fans from getting on to the pitch to get closer to him.

The world record fee of £80 million has been paid. Manchester United are in the process of keeping the dreams alive at the `Theatre of Dreams` as they look to buy some new players. Ronaldo will be sorely missed at Old Trafford. He`s leaving behind a lot of supporters who really liked him, along with the many friends he made while he was there, both footballers and non-players, and of course the man who brought him to Old Trafford-Sir Alex Ferguson.

Michael Owen Signs for Manchester United



29 year old Michael Owen has signed for Manchester United on a free transfer.

Owen passed the medical yesterday, and has signed a two year deal, which will reward him if he does the business for the Red Devils.

The striker will earn far less than his £110,000-a-week wages at Newcastle, but could still do well depending on appearances, goals scored etc.

Owen at his peak was one of the best goal scorers England have had in the modern era. Hopefully he will stay injury free and reproduce the same talent when he plays for United.
