The proficiency of Manchester United, the most dominating domestic team, has been exposed during final of Champions League. With the team winning the Premier League successively for the third time, they equaled the record of 18 league titles with Liverpool. While Chelsea bagged the third position, Arsenal maintained the 4th position. Still being one of the best teams in the region, Manchester United has proved itself again by winning third successive league title.
The Football Writers’ Association’s Footballer of the Year Award had eight footballers in the voting list. The team’s competency can be judged from the multiple nominations. Out of these 8 sportsmen, unbelievably six are from Manchester United team. The six lucky players responsible for making the team reach heights are Cristiano Ronaldo, Ryan Giggs, Michael Carrick, Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic and Wayne Rooney. Though Steven Gerrard from Liverpool bagged the first prize, thanks to split voting.
Alex Ferguson is a perfectionist in terms of squad rotation of the team. Two Brazillian twins Rafael and Fabio not only bring glory to the Manchester United team but also are able to shift focus from Gary Neville. Everything aside, old players like Paul Scholes and Giggs steal the spotlight.
The coming summer will see some breathtaking tough decisions in the squad. Christiano Ronaldo’s place in the team is on stake after the third-party owners of Carlos Tevez’s contract demanded £22 million. We all hope that the decisions does not affect the performance of team members and continue to be the leading team.
