M'Boro 0 - 2 United

Foster
O'Shea Evans Vidic Evra(Rafael)
Park(Nani) Scholes Giggs Rooney
Berbatov Macheda(Tevez)

A game away to M'Boro is always difficult and if you don't believe me ask Liverpool who lost 2-0 a couple of weeks ago. A solid performance by United did the trick and now United have a 6 point advantage. Giggs was on top form today and scored a nicely placed goal while Park put our minds to rest early on in the second half.

A few eyebrows might have been raised when we saw the starting line up. Macheda, Evans, Foster, Scholes and Giggs in the middle, Ronaldo on the bench etc... But Fergie was proved right again with another good display that puts us 7 points nearer to the title.

My man of the match was Giggs. He was so composed and scored an important goal. Scholes controlled possession well although he forgot his scoring boots at home while Vidic's towering presence was too much for the Boro players. Macheda worked hard for the ball and so did Park. Rooney was his usual self on the left while Berbatov put in another decent performance. O'Shea and Evra were solid and Evans showed good composure under the guidance of the great Vidic. All in all it was a good team performance.

I just hope Liverpool crumble under the pressure but I don't expect them to miss on the 3 points tomorow against a poor Newcastle side.

We are peaking again after a minor blip a month or so ago. Our next match could put us into another Champions League final for the second year running. Bring on the Gunners! Let's gun them down!
