Looks like Rio Ferdinand’s injury problems seem to be only getting bigger and more serious with time. What started off as a calf injury was linked to his back problems as revealed by Sir Alex Ferguson, however, it is learnt that Manchester United and Rio might be on a way to try out a new treatment for reducing the time Rio spends off the field owing to the injury.

With the game at the Bridge so near, it is good to see two of our players return back to camp for practice. Both Berbatov and Vidic are poised to make a return to the Chelsea match. Hargreaves is only 10 days away from return to practice while Ferdinand and Ji-Sung Park are still not fit to make a return. [Keep Reading…]

Rio Ferdinand is facing an extended period on the sidelines as Manchester United try to get to the bottom of his latest injury concern.
While Ferdinand has already been ruled out of Sunday’s match with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge after failing to recover from a calf injury that has been plaguing him for a couple of weeks. [Keep Reading…]

Pini Zahavi is football’s one and only superagent. He has accomplished some of the biggest and most controversial deals in English football, whether it is a club that is being bought or whether it is a player. Roman Abramovich’s acquisition of Chelsea, the Ashley Cole ‘tapping-up’ affair and Rio Ferdinand’s controversial move from Leeds to Manchester United have all been carried out under the watchful eyes of Pini Zahavi. Zahavi, who is an extremely reclusive man, has today come out in support of his client, friend and protégé Rio Ferdinand by trying to explain the reasons behind Rio’s bewildering loss of form that has seen him commit a series of uncharacteristic blunders. Zahavi reckons that it is Ferdinand’s tryst with injuries that is behind his lack of pace and concentration which is ultimately being manifested in the form of mistakes. [Keep Reading…]

Unfair and harsh criticism
Patience it seems has become a thing of the past. We might as well keep it in a museum or stock it away somewhere. A world class striker can be delightful on a day and a lazy burden on the other. A midfielder can be an astute passer, a supreme conductor of an orchestra on one day and an ageing warhorse on the other. The fickle nature of fans and pundits alike these days is preposterous to say the least. Take Rio Ferdinand’s case for example. Not too long ago Rio was the best center back in the world for quite a few people. He was a good reader of situations, a potential long-term captaincy material. Three mistakes later, the same Rio Ferdinand is a liability, a man who can’t read the game to save his life. In fact such is the level of people’s disdain for Rio that some United fans are already calling for his head, asking Sir Alex to off-load the Englishman when there are still takers. So much for trust. [Keep Reading…]

Predictably, the jeers have died down after people had accused United of every possible crime to “get” a victory against Shitty. A friend of mine who has delusions about Chelsea being a real club actually pointed out that United might have paid off the refs. But then, I think I let it pass lightly because such comments can only come from a Cheshit gloryhunting rentboy.
Coming back to the fixture at hand, Britannia Stadium is never a easy venue to play at, the support there being the certified loudest in the Premier League. This time around though, they have even backed that up by some decent performances on the pitch and 7 points so far suggest a solid team and they could have further added on those had they held on steadfast for a couple of more minutes against Chelsea. Tony Pulis is one of the few managers in the league admired by one and all for his man management skills and I’m sure we will have as scrappy an affair we often see against stout teams.
