After watching Sunday’s match between Manchester City and Birmingham, and in-fact the season as a whole, I am starting to believe Shay Given is currently far and away the best goal keeper in the Premier League, and maybe even one of the best in the world.
His performance at Birmingham was fantastic, and he single handedly earned Manchester City a point. He demonstrated the full range of keeping skills that he possesses; including saving long shots, one-on-ones, crosses, and even a penalty save.
There are not many reasons to envy City as a United fan, but Given is definitely one of them. He has to be City’s best signing, and for only £8Million…that’s a bargain. When Van der Sar retires United could really use a player of Given’s quality as his successor…

It was a huge match on Sunday when Manchester United came to face Liverpool at Anfield. If Liverpool won they could save their season, if they lost it would end their title challenge very early in the running.
The most noticeable absentee was the injured Steven Gerrard, and it looked like it could be a difficult game for Liverpool without their iconic skipper. But as soon as the first ball was kicked it was clear that Liverpool were well up for the match.
As you are probably well aware Liverpool ended up winning 2-0 and I won’t go into a detailed match report here, but rather pick out a few things that bothered me.
I think it was a big mistake for Ferguson to play Scholes in the midfield. Scholes is a Manchester United legend, and will always have a place in the heart of the fans, but it’s just the nature of live that players get older and lose their edge. For me ever since last season Scholes has been on a down hill slope, at this point he rarely has a good game. Against Liverpool he got caught on the ball many times and just didn’t seem able to keep up with the play. My biggest surprise was that the normally astute Ferguson did not pick up on this and substitute him out for Anderson or Nani at half time.
Another issue which has started to bother me a lot for the last few matches is Berbatov and his increasingly poor attitude. At this point you see him complaining and have a go at other players whenever Berbatov misplaces a pass or doesn’t get the ball he wants; and not in a constructive way, but more of a blame game. I’m shocked Ferguson has let him get away with it, as his performances just don’t warrant any special treatment. I he doesn’t get his head right Ferguson needs to teach him a lesson and let Machada and Wellbeck have a chance at starting matches.
On a plus side the defense looks a lot stronger with Van Der Saar in the net; with Ben Foster playing I’m sure the score could have been 4 or 5.
Liverpool played very well, and I have to take my hat off to them with the likes of Lucas and Carragher really playing brilliantly after being criticized for recent poor performances.

Over the years Alex Ferguson and Rafa Benitez have had some epic battles both off and on the pitch. Sometimes Rafa has won, sometimes Ferguson, but always Ferguson has come away having the last laugh at the of the season.
This weekend could be the biggest match of them all; a gleaming chance for Ferguson to deliver the final death blow, possibly sealing Benitez’ Premier League demise.
Liverpool are coming off the back of 4 consecutive losses, the worst run in 20 years. This season they have truly become a 2 man team, with Gerrard and Torres just having to do way too much. The knives are out for Rafa in the boardroom and now even the terraces are calling for blood.
At the moment top half of the table is looking a good result for Liverpool, let alone top four.
On the other hand Manchester United are top of the table already, despite often starting the season slowly. They have take the loss of Ronaldo in their stride and kept winning. Also having a 100% record in the Champions League, opposed to Liverpool’s 1 win and 2 losses.
Surely if Manchester United go to Anfield and not only deal Liverpool their 5th straight loss, but also give them a right spanking, which they could well do; it might see Rafa being shown the exit.

It may be too early to make predictions about the future of Cristiano Ronaldo, but I have a feeling the £80 million sale to Real Madrid could turn out to be a very smart bit of business by Sir Alex Ferguson.
At the beginning of the 2008/2009 season Ronaldo missed the first few months due to an ankle injury. After coming back and having a successful season he claimed that the injury was behind him and a one off occurrence. Real Madrid obviously believed this when they offer United a record breaking transfer fee for his services.
However in the friendly last weekend against Hungary Ronaldo limped off the field with another injury. After coming back to Madrid for examination the club issued this statement:
“After a clinical examination and an MRI scan, it is confirmed the player has suffered a recurrence of his injury to his right ankle, a medial collateral sprain with inflammation in the bone,”
All players pick up injuries from time to time; the real problem comes if you pick up an injury which keeps coming back. If you are constantly worrying about a certain injury while playing it’s impossible to perform at the peak level.
Ronaldo may be able to recover from this injury and move on, but with the way he plays; relying on speed and quick turning skills this kind of injury could signal the decline of the worlds best player.
