This season Sir Alex Ferguson has shown the Glazer's (the owners of the club) that he is more than capable of beating Abromavich's army. Since the beginning of the season he has taken the lead of the English premier league and held on to that position. He is indeed the man who deserved the most to have been offered the manager's position for the England national team and he has clearly shown that experience (not money) counts in the beautiful game.
Christiano Ronaldo (English football's public enemy no.1) caused a stir after he ran half the pitch to complain to the referee about Wayne Rooney's challenge and thus caused him to be sent off in the World Cup knock out stages. Every one in England believes that if Rooney hadn't been sent off, they would have certainly won the World cup. Still I believe that the Portuguese footballer has improved his game dramatically and is proving to be a thorn in most defender's side with all his running and beautiful ball skills. He is one of the key people who have led Manchester United to the top of the English Premiership.
Wayne Rooney has not shown me anything yet to prove that he is indeed a mature football player at all. His sudden outbursts of rage are proving to be a serious problem for the young man who at Everton showed good ball control and good finishing skills. If he really wants to be the best in the world I would advice him to take anger management classes before he even thinks of playing football again. He has done nothing so far to contribute to Man U's current position.
Striker, Olegun Solkjser 'the baby faced assassin' has recovered from a long injury spell and in the Aston Villa game at Old Trafford showed the world why Fergie stuck with him this whole time. Man U were level with Aston Villa but in the 90th minute Olegun struck the ball with sheer power at the edge of the penalty box and the ball seemed too hot to handle for the opposing goalkeeper. He saved Sir Alex the blushes had he been beaten at home by Aston Villa.
Rio Ferdinand one of Man U's center half's seems to have his defense in check since they have not conceded a lot of goals since the 2006\2007 season started. I have got to commend Mr. Ferguson that he not only worked on his attack but he also beefed up his defense pretty well.
Out of all the Man United players I have to highly commend Paul Scholes for his bravery in fighting the disease that almost blinded him. Early signs of his seeing problems were visible when he missed an important penalty in the FA cup final against Arsenal at the Millennium stadium in the 2004\2005 season. His miss basically gave Arsenal the cup. After the game he was not seen for some time because he underwent some eye surgery. He is the most important player in the Man U line up considering his latest goal scoring form.
It seems that this time round Jose Mourinho will not be able to catch the Red devils. Alex will take the title that he so richly deserves.

will ronaldo get man united back to the top this season though? Its a tough one to call... personally, i think it is going to be between the big four (who played on sunday), but even after this round its not really much clearer who is gonna win it... Its tighter than a ducks arse between the top 4 this season and sundays games proved this. personally i would love to see liverpool win it this year - not that im a scouser, its just the underdog always holds a place in my heart. I scooped quite a big prize after my football betting antics at the weekend (despite betting against liverpool!) but i don't think i am brave enough to be betting on the outcome of the eventual premier league winner just yet :)
Man United's 1-0 victory on sunday could have put Liverpools title hopes on hold for another season... ah well theres always Europe
