Sir Alex chasing 3 stars !


Sir Alex Ferguson says he is chasing three signings this summer. 
 The Manchester United boss needs to strengthen his squad with keeper Edwin van der Sar, 40, about to retire.  Gary Neville, 36, has already hung up his boots while Paul Scholes, 36, is mulling over his future.  Fergie said:
"We have some ideas in mind. Hopefully, we can get them put in place. 
 "We have Giggs and Scholes coming towards the end of their careers, Neville has retired and Van der Sar is retiring, so there are holes we want to plug in terms of the security of the team for the next few years. "I am looking at maybe three signings which would boost our quality."
  
My picks :
1. Wesley Sneijder [Inter Milan / Netherlands] £15 millions
2. David De Gea [Atletico Madrid / Spain] £20 millions
3. Alexis Sánchez [Udinese / Chile] £25 millions

Realistic transfers in my opinion with the £100 millions transfer kitty that fergie has!!

Nani wins player's player award


Nani has topped his outstanding season by taking home the Players’ Player of the Year prize from the official Manchester United awards night on Wednesday.

In a further nod to a remarkable campaign, the Reds' winger was voted second in the poll for the historic Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year award - just one per cent behind eventual winner Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez.

These achievements cap a wonderful year for Nani, in which the Portuguese international scored 10 goals and assisted a further 18 to help United reclaim the Barclays Premier League title and reach a third Champions League final in four years.

Congratulations Nani, keep on goin'!! 

Javier Hernandez wins Fans Player of the Year Award


Javier Hernandez has capped a phenomenal debut season for United by scooping the prestigious Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year Award.

The accolade is voted for by fans across the world on the club’s official websites and honours United’s best player in the 2010/11 campaign.

Chicharito, who has scored 20 goals this term to help the Reds win the Barclays Premier League and reach the Champions League final, was presented with the trophy at a glittering gala dinner at Old Trafford on Wednesday night.

He picked up 21% of the votes to pip Nani (20%) into second place, with skipper Nemanja Vidic (16%) competing the top three.

The Mexican becomes the sixth player to receive the award at the end of his first campaign for the Reds, following Brian McClair (the inaugural winner in 1988), Gary Pallister (1990), Ruud van Nistelrooy (2002), Cristiano Ronaldo (2004) and Gabriel Heinze (2005).

Here's a video about chicharito's magic moments this season:


Congratultions Lil' Pea :) keep it on!

Wayne Rooney wins Goal of the season Award




Wayne Rooney’s jaw-dropping overhead kick in the 2-1 win over Manchester City has been voted Goal of the Season at the annual Manchester United awards evening.


The gravity defying effort, which was described by Sir Alex Ferguson as “probably the best goal scored at Old Trafford”, was the clear winner on the night and received a whopping 68% of votes cast by ManUtd.com visitors.



Congratulations Wazza !!

Oliver Gill wins Reserve Player of the year Award



Oliver Gill [son of united chief executive David Gill ] has been named the Reserves' Player of the Year for 2011 after a consistent season alongside Scott Wootton at the heart of the Reds' defence.

The 20-year-old beat off competition from fellow defenders Wootton and Joe Dudgeon to land the Denzil Haroun trophy after also being short-listed last season.

"You very, very rarely see Ollie have a bad game or even a bad training session," commented Reserves boss Warren Joyce. "He's an example of how to prepare for games."

Well Done Oliver Gill, keep it On!!
