Currently the center MU memuncaki points standings with 66 results from 30 parties. The position is still very vulnerable displaced because there beneath that Chelsea have 64 points from 29 action and Arsenal who pocketed the equivalent points despite Chelsea's through 30 action.

Thus, the eight remaining parties must be utilized properly by the MU in order to retain the Premier League title. Unfortunately, even the arrival of the MU is not easy opponent defeated: Liverpool.

'The Red' may be the middle of this season and slumped been knocked out of the struggle for the title. However, Liverpool's ambitions finish in fourth position also should not be underestimated and is very wary of the MU.

Manchester - The defeat of Liverpool at home is true imprint in the minds of Manchester United. Will not repeat the story again, the MU also required to learn from mistakes.

In March and Old Trafford was a silent witness MU hosts defeat to Liverpool. 'Red Devils' 1-4 defeat humiliated.

MU is still closing the season as league champions, but lost at home to one of the rival team so heavy that it was not a positive thing.

MU increasingly embarrassed at the beginning of last season was Liverpool to win success. This means, in two meetings last season, Liverpool are always able to subdue the MU.

MU bad record over Liverpool so long after the first meeting this season 'The Red' back to win at Anfield. In dihelat party on October 25, 2009, goals Fernando Torres and David N'Gog make Liverpool won 2-0.

This weekend will again see Chelsea Liverpool. With the three points become very crucial for the team Sir Alex Ferguson, was an absolute victory obtained. Series let alone defeat could endanger the MU's position at the top of the standings staked out Chelsea and Arsenal.

The Sun said that the veteran players that MU has indeed been absent from the green field since cracking a bone his hand against Aston Villa, a month ago. But Giggs has started practicing again, yesterday morning.

Chelsea manager and apparently, Sir Alex Ferguson would put it into action skuat in mortal rivals counter it. Hand Giggs (36 years) who had been cracking new steel plate could be removed next summer. While mild plate was removed last week.

Giggs did not have a fitness doubt. But the Red Devils coach the team seems to ensure the sharpness of Wales wing instinct is to play.

Power Giggs Ferguson is still very necessary to maintain the Premier League trophy. MU is pursuing a record of reaching the Premier League trophy four times in quick succession.

Rooney: 42 is just another number

Wayne Rooney continued his incredible streak with a brace against Fulham and then said that 42 goals wouldn't mean much to him.

Berbatov rounded off victory near the end, although all the focus was on Rooney, who is now just 10 behind Cristiano Ronaldo's staggering total from two years ago that helped crown him world player of the year.

Not that Rooney is the type to welcome any comparisons.

"If I am being honest, getting to 42 goals wouldn't mean a lot to me," he said. "It is not something I have looked at.

"Obviously it is nice to score goals. I want to score goals in every game and what Cristiano Ronaldo achieved was unbelievable.

"But I am a different player and a different person. I am not comparing myself to Cristiano."

United are now two points ahead of Chelsea - who have a game in hand - and Arsenal, with eight games remaining, starting with next week's eagerly-anticipated visit of Liverpool, and including the visit of Carlo Ancelotti's men on April 3.

But Sir Alex Ferguson is not expecting anything to be decided yet.

"At the moment it is looking like the tightest Premier League we have had," said the United chief.

"It is very tight. We only have eight games left. Chelsea have nine. We are all involved in Europe. Chelsea also have the FA Cup.

"I suppose the simple way for us and Chelsea to look at it is just to win all our games. But life is never that simple."

Apparently, though, it is exactly that simple for Berbatov, who endured a frustrating afternoon in front of goal prior to his own effort, even though he was picked out as one of United's star men by Hodgson.

"There can only be one winner and I think it is going to be us," said the £30.75million Bulgarian.

"Arsenal and Chelsea are great teams and we have difficult games ahead of us but the good thing is we play at home at Old Trafford against Chelsea and that will be an advantage for us.

"I am optimistic that in the end we will be champions."

Fulham manager Roy Hodgson admitted it is little surprise Real Madrid think Rooney is worth £100million.

Real president Florentino Perez is "obsessed" with Rooney according to the club's former president Ramon Calderon, despite the fact neither Manchester United nor their star man have given any indication a transfer is possible.

And after taking his tally for the season to 32 with the first two goals in a 3-0 win over the Cottagers at Old Trafford that took United back to the Premier League summit, Hodgson could only join the chorus of praise.

"Wayne Rooney is proving he is among the best in the world every week," said Hodgson.

"He is scoring lots of goals in a tough league like ours. He is starring for England and is starring in the Champions League.

"Anyone doing that is a player who will be talked about and someone everyone else is going to be coveting. It is no surprise people are coveting Wayne Rooney.

"It is pointless for me to say Wayne Rooney is an excellent player because you could get that from the man in the pub.

"I just know we don't have that kind of money."

At the moment, Rooney is driving United towards an unprecedented fourth successive title.

After a goalless first half, the former Everton star took just 29 seconds to break the deadlock, converting Nani's return pass in clinical fashion.

With Brede Hangeland forced off with a chest injury suffered in a first half collision with Antonio Valencia, the hosts then spurned a succession of chances, and survived a scare when Bobby Zamora found himself clean through, before Rooney settled frayed nerves when he tucked home Dimitar Berbatov's cutback.

Park Ji-sung Matikan Peran Pirlo

Success of Manchester United destroy AC Milan four goals without reply in the fight last 16 second leg of Champions League at Old Trafford, early this morning, was greeted with great joy by coach Sir Alex Ferguson.

Ferguson calls all punggawanya play in overcoming extraordinary toughness Rossoneri squad. However, Fergie called a key player as a victory, which is in Park Ji-Sung.

South Korea international players to be successful given the role played by Fergie. Park served off the role of Milan playmaker, Andrea Pirlo. Keeping pergeraklan opponent is a task that is rarely played by Park because he is a true winger.

However, Park successfully made Pirlo as not having the space to provide supplies to the front of the ball. And rows of Milan was almost no chance mature.

"Park is the key to our game," explained Sir Alex told MUTV, Thursday (11/3/2010). "We can talk Rooney, he's great. But, Park is very disciplined, have intelligence and are willing to sacrifice for the team strategy. Pirlo is an important player Milan and Park successfully turn it off, "said Fergie.

Park itself also contributed a goal in the fight which was won by United with the 7-2 aggregate. Breakthrough feedback received from Paul Scholes, Park cleverly kicks off along the ground to the pole away goalkeeper Christian Abbiatti.

Old Trafford, Hell Rossoneri

Destroyed. That's the word that best describes the conditions of AC Milan come to the cage when Manchester United in the second leg of the Champions League final perdelapan on Thursday (11/3/2010) early days. Milan not only be excluded from the most prestigious event Blue Continent. European champion in 2007 became the laughingstock United defeating them soundly by a score of 4-0 (7-2).

2-3 deficit in the first leg to make foster children Leonardo Araujo had no other option but reached the maximum at Old Trafford. Not only that, Milan need a score of 2-0 to ensure himself stepped into the quarter-finals.

Ronaldinho et al tried to put pressure on the host from the beginning. However, United stole the determination of the title Barcelona's hand seems much more powerful. The Red Devils first threatened by Wayne Rooney in attack four minutes. However, the kick is still spreading faster than Wazza Christian Abbiati's goal.

Ability tested Abbiati again, four minutes later. This time the captain Gary Neville who surged into the penalty box. Luckily for Milan, Neville kick goal was not met.

Two quick attacks as the host whipped the spirit of Milan. Andrea Pirlo and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar had raised hopes by threatening Milanisti goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar. Unfortunately, neither Pirlo nor yet able to vibrate Huntelaar goal goalie nets Dutch veterans.

Rossoneri nightmare coming in minute 13 in the form of Rooney. Topskor while Premier League giants back a scourge of Italy after leading the United winning 1-0. Neville took the ball on the right side before crossing ripe to release Rooney, who had been waiting in front of goal. Without a doubt, 24 years old striker jumped at the ball with his head tandukan.

4-2 aggregate advantage to make the Red Devils did not loosen the attack. Squads besutan Sir Alex Ferguson continues to dominate the course of the first half and forced the Rossoneri defense worked hard. However, continued to hold the score 1-0 until halftime.

Expectations Rossoneri stepped into the quarter-finals vanished after Rooney added his goal coffers, some time after the second round begins. Rooney booked his 30th goal this season after Nani welcomed feedback from the left sector at 46 minutes.

Rooney's second goal seemed to dampen her spirit to fight Il Diavolo. The retainer Milan increasingly difficult to penetrate the defense barricade United. Built Rossoneri attack was not enough to make van der Sar overwhelmed.

Huntelaar again wasted an opportunity to catch up with Milan after his header crossing welcomed Clarence Seedorf just bounced over goalkeeper van der Sar.

United are already determined to escape even more fierce. Not satisfied with humiliating Milan 5-2 on aggregate, the host was again forced Abbiati picked up the ball on 59 minutes. This time through Park Ji-Sung which is impressive with the ball of bait in front of Paul Scholes goal Abbiati. Without difficulty, South Korea star 'bury' Rossoneri with United winning 3-0.

Leonardo decisions include former Red Devils icon David Beckham in the 64th minute was not much help to the visitors. Though acclaimed by the public standing of Ovation Old Trafford, Beckham just once threatened van der Sar's goal in 74th minute through a hard kick. However, van der Sar was able to ward off the ball while keeping the host advantage.

Darren Fletcher Milan finally complete misery. Fletcher bring United ahead 4-0, two minutes before the fight was over cross convert Rafael da Silva to perfection.

Manchester United 4-0 AC Milan

Manchester United managed to melibas AC Milan 4-0 to advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions Leaguebest and worst moment of the match.

The fact is most evident is the failure of defense Milan to learn to anticipate the attack strategy United since the first fight. Six of a total of seven goals in two meetings of United produced from the cross! Milan seemed unable to stem the United players every time off a deep cross.

We left behind three goals, as Leonardo had no other choice and chose to replace two players back to the bernaluri attacking players. Options strategies are not wrong, but it also shows the depth of Milan did not have a good squad at the back.

As best moment, Wayne Rooney was again put forward appropriate. Although not much involved in the match, Rooney appeared effective and created two goals from a total of four shots launched at opponent's goal.

Wayne Rooney drives Manchester United past hapless Milan

Wayne Rooney starred on the field but David Beckham stole the limelight on his return to Old Trafford. He received a standing ovation when he came off the bench but it was his final act which further enhanced his legend status. At full time he donned a green-and-gold scarf – a symbol of opposition to the Glazer family’s ownership of the club – a move which will have thrilled the United faithful.

This evening needed every square inch of football heritage to conceal the drabness of the match. Manchester United overwhelmed inept and ageing visitors. David Beckham eventually took the field as a substitute against his old club and was a tactful guest. The veteran won cheers for a volley that did no harm as the attempt was tipped over the bar by Edwin van der Sar.

The drubbing administered at Old Trafford fell just short of the 5-0 margin by which Arsenal had swamped Porto the night before. Perhaps the recent Premier League ascendancy in this tournament is not destined to end shortly after all. It will be a relief to Sir Alex Ferguson and others that Real Madrid, following the 1-1 draw with Lyon, have yet again been eliminated in the last 16 of the Champions League.

United were never confronted by that sort of risk and the sheer energy in their ranks prevented Milan from disguising the elderliness of some and the mediocrity of others in their line-up. The contrast between the teams was all the more pronounced because Wayne Rooney, who began his professional life as a phenomenon, seems now to be getting better still.

There were to be two strikes from him, but he had confirmed United's passage to the Champions League quarter-finals as soon as he notched the opener. The entertainment continued to the 88th minute when Darren Fletcher headed in a cross from the substitute Rafael da Silva. This emphatic beating will not have taken Milan wholly by surprise.

The fuss over Beckham's return to Old Trafford overlooked the fact that the coach, Leonardo, would have been a sentimental fool to include him in the starting line-up. His mediocre outing in the first leg indicated that the inevitable decline of a veteran is getting steeper. At least Beckham showed nice touches and a fellow substitute Filippo Inzaghi might have forced home one of the deliveries in stoppage time.

The 34-year-old Beckham was introduced with the score was 3-0 and there had been nothing to distract the crowd from lauding him. "Fergie, Fergie sign him up," chanted the fans. The intention was kind, but it must have hurt a veteran who knew he was being patronised. At least he was not alone. This had been a chastening night for Milan.

Nothing could have stopped them from being outclassed but the aggregate score might not have reached 7-2 if Alexandre Pato and, more relevantly, the centre-half Alessandro Nesta had been fit to play. Any suggestion that the tie was in balance at kick-off was pure fiction, even if Ferguson had been in charge of the story-telling.

On the eve of the game he had regretted the late goal by Clarence Seedorf at San Siro. That had done no more that trim the margin of United's win to 3-2. At the very least, Milan would have had to score twice at Old Trafford and the task of keeping a clean sheet had always looked an impossibility.

There could have been some tension when a free-kick from the right glanced off Nani and went straight to Ronaldinho after eight minutes but the Brazilian's header ran wide with the goalkeeper Van der Sar almost motionless. Rooney is more practised at that art and his opener was the seventh consecutive goal he had nodded home.

The attacker got in front of the centre-half Daniele Bonera to glance the ball past a helpless Christian Abbiati. The visitors had come with attacking intent, but they also brought to Manchester the same basic vulnerability that had afflicted them in Milan.

Even if they had been rigorous, Rooney might still have been their undoing. The string of goals highlights the movement essential to a striker who is not all that tall. Often there is no marker to outjump him because Rooney has left him trailing. The opener dismayed Milan, but there was also collateral damage to the fixture itself.No one could pretend that a grand drama was unfolding.

Leonardo's side did not get much encouragement although they had bouts of possession. Before half-time excitement was restricted in their efforts to counter Rooney's goal. Milan had to seek a lot more than that. They sent on Seedorf for the second half, but the removal of Bonera proved more relevant because the middle of their defence was disturbed.

Massimo Ambrosini, a midfielder, had been reassigned to that post, but the back four were left helpless when possession was surrendered cheaply. Nani, from the left, crossed precisely with his right foot in the 46th minute and Rooney shot past Abbiati. A finish with boot rather than brow was the sole element of surprise. Uncertainty involved nothing more than the ultimate margin of victory in the tie.

United, with the match won, were too composed to be lenient. After 59 minutes, Paul Scholes slid through a pass that Park Ji-sung converted for the third goal. A crowd that relished the display and remembered to protest lustily against the ownership of the Glazers had an ideal evening.
