March 13th, 2010 tribalfootball.com No comments

Rooney: Scholes the true Man Utd star

March 13th, 2010 tribalfootball.com No comments

Wayne Rooney says Manchester United teammate Paul Scholes is the one player who deserves icon status at Old Trafford.

The 34 year-old veteran bossed the AC Milan midfield in this week's Champions League victory.

And Rooney told The Sun: "It's hard to sum up Scholesy because he's changed his game since he was younger. He's like a quarterback now, getting it in the middle and spraying it around the field.

"He's unbelievable - he's one of the greatest of all time."

Man Utd boss Ferguson plays down manner of victory over AC Milan

March 13th, 2010 tribalfootball.com No comments

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has moved to cool the fallout from their thrashing of AC Milan.
<!--break-->
Once the fuss over David Beckham's green and gold exit and another two goals for Wayne Rooney has died down, the record books will show a quite staggering aggregate win over a fellow heavyweight that in the short-term has dispelled any remaining concerns about United's ability to challenge for major honours this season.

Ferguson recognises the enormity of the result. But, ahead of Sunday's encounter with Fulham, the Scot is also eager to introduce a note of caution.

"We have to calm ourselves down a little bit," he said.

"It was an emphatic result on Wednesday but they lost Alessandro Nesta on the morning of the game and then lost their centre-back at half-time. That made it difficult for them.

"It is the same as when we played Fulham a couple of months back. We had no centre-backs, so what do you expect?"

Moyes hopes MLS strike will keep Donovan at Everton

March 13th, 2010 tribalfootball.com No comments

Everton boss David Moyes refuses to accept defeat in hanging onto on-loan LA Galaxy midfielder Landon Donovan.
<!--break-->
Moyes sees the possibility of Donovan staying longer if the MLS players go through with their strike, having voted in favour of action on Thursday if they do not get improved labour contracts before their league starts on March 26.

The Scot also hopes that Donovan will realise what he is leaving behind and want another crack at the Premier League.

And if the only prospect left is another loan next January, Moyes will also consider that.

He said: "I don't know yet whether this is Landon's last game, there is still a chance that there could be a players' strike in the US and that could give us the chance of having him a bit longer. He has done really well. He settled in very quickly and he has had an impact on the club in the short time he has been here, so we couldn't have asked for more from him.

"We have never talked about a permanent deal. But I think he will return to the States and say 'wow, the Premier League is where I want to be'."

He added: "It is a joy for him playing in the US, he is with a great team in a great place. But I think he will say: 'I want to play in the Premier League again'.

"Everyone wants to be somewhere that they are loved and cherished, which he certainly is in the US. But there is a different situation when you can be playing in the best league in the world against the best players. And if you want to be recognised at that level, Landon would probably want to have the opportunity to give it a go.

"We have not talked to him about the future, that is not right because he is owned by another club. Landon will be the one who in time says what he would really like. But if Landon was available again next January, I would probably try to bring him back here, certainly if he was available in the way that AC Milan keep re-signing David Beckham."
