Herrera is our #10!

Louis van Gaal felt Ander Herrera improved after switching to No.10 in Manchester United's "relatively easy" 4-0 win at Club Brugge. Hearing that was music to my ears coming from the United boss.

After a quite disastrous first half I thought, as many of did that he wouldn't take the field in the second half. He looked over eager and rushed his passes, got himself booked and actually gave it away more than anything else.


The difference though was in the second half he played as a No.10. And the boy put up his hand for more regular first team minutes. He was superb not just in setting up Rooney's hat-trick goal and he scored with sublime composure showed once again that he deserves to start more.

I remember his first outing in a Manchester United jumper a Man of the Match performance in the USA in pre-season last season. Back then I knew little to nothing about him and since then he has made a positive influence every time he plays and even scores a few.


He forced Rooney further up the field and the rest is history - 90minutes with 3 goals, 6 shots, 4 on target and 52 passes at 87% accuracy. Good numbers any day.


So just like I could not wait on the Champions League Draw on Thursday I can't wait to see LVG's team sheet come Sunday vs Swansea.

What happens if Manchester United win the Europa League & finish in the top four?

By
  Due to Champions League qualification clubs are now looking more favourably at the Europa League competition.  So Manchester United will naturally be gunning for glory as they take on Celta Vigo in their semi final.   If however, they win the tournament and finish the English Premier League in the top four, England will have just the four teams in Europe’s elite competition. What I find more interesting is if Manchester United win the Europa League and finish outside the top four! Should this scenario occur, England will have FIVE entrants to the Champions League, rather than four – with United joining the top four Premier League clubs.   There are a host of different scenarios as to who will be in Europe's second tier next season. For starters, the Premier League's fifth-placed club - should United not win the Europa League AND finish outside the top four - will go into the pot.   Then there's the EFL Cup - or League Cup - winners... however that tournament w

WHAT THE MANAGERS SAY Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp : "Apart from the table, it's a very important game. I know about the history, I like the special stories. The whole world will watch this game, it's a big honour to be part of it. "At the end, it's up to us to perform to our best. You cannot and should not ignore the special circumstance of a game like this. You have to be ready. "They have big quality and we have to respect this, as we do. But this is Anfield. We have to show this. We have had a few nice atmospheres but I'm open for the best atmosphere. We need everybody in a Liverpool shirt in this game." Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho on concerns over disrespectful chanting at the game: "In football we have some football tragedies, if you can say that, which is a big match that you lost, the mistake that some player did, this kind of thing, and you can make fun of it in a positive way. "But the human tragedy i

The Premier League changes its logo.

By
The most lucrative football league in the world, The English Premier League (EPL), yesterday unveiled its new official logo, which will be used from the 2016-17 season onwards. The division's lion icon has been the face of England's top flight since its launch in 1992 but has undergone a makeover to give it a fresh, modern look. It means, EPL is ending its 12-year association with Barclays bank and will from now on be known simply as ‘the Premier League’. The new logo – has a crowned lion’s head gazing to the right, accompanied by either the words ‘Premier League’ or ‘PL’ -- will replace the current logo of a lion with its left paw on a football. All 20 clubs in the top flight have also agreed a new centralised sponsorship strategy, meaning the league will no longer have a named sponsor. “From next season we will move away from title sponsorship and the competition will be known as the Premier League, a decision which provided the opportunity to consider how we wanted
