A very important match is coming up, with Chelsea at the top of the table and United managing to win only one of the last three matches. United fans hope that is the match that will put us back on track, while others expect a thrashing victory for Chelsea.

For now, let’s enjoy some sweet memories from matches against Chelsea:

Manchester United 1-0 Chelsea: Great Fletcher Tackle

So, Chelsea’s bickering and complaining has, again, got under the skin of the officials. John Terry’s red card for a cynical foul on Manchester City’s striker Jo has gone completely unpunished and has resulted in the FA embarrassing themselves once again. The rematch between the two finalists of last season’s Champions League final between, Chelsea, the runners up and, Manchester United, the reigning Champions of Europe, will be eagerly anticipated by all, but perhaps none more so than John Terry himself, who will be seeking to make up for his embarrassing miss in the Champions League final penalty shootout.

Liverpool vs. Manchester United. A game that needs no introduction really, it is the clash between to the two most successful football clubs in England’s history and it’s a game that I want to see United win more than any other. The victor of this match undeniably gets bragging rights and perhaps more importantly, a massive confidence boost that can usually see them winning the next three or four games that follow.

The arrival of Dimitar Berbatov has strengthened our attacking force, but could this move be the catalyst for Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure?

As you have noticed, last season, due to the lack of a striking options, Ronaldo was more of a striker than a winger. By the end of the season I got used to seeing our 4-4-2 formation turn into a 4-3-2-1, with Wayne Rooney on the left, Carlos Tevez on the right and Ronaldo moving up-front.

He may have ended his career at the beginning of the 07-08 season, but “the baby-faced assassin” will always remain in our hearts.

Appointed as the Manchester United Reserve Team manager for the 08-09 campaign, Ole Gunnar Solskjær will be instilling the same game winning, humble attitude which he so elegantly possessed throughout his playing career.

I would like to present some of Ole’s most beautiful goals.

After a frustrating end of the transfer period, I think those who wanted badly Berbatov at Old Trafford deserve to relax and enjoy his best goals for Spurs.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Dimitar Berbatov’s top 5 goals scored in the last two years:

Number 5

Everyone is sulky sometimes. A lot of people always mention that Berbatov is sulky, moody and disruptive and it makes me laugh to be honest. I personally believe Berbatov is nowhere near his best, we haven’t seen all he has. For four years now I have rated him as a footballing genious if given the chance to grow. No disrespect to Spurs, but they hardly set the world alight in the past 2 seasons. Berba was left up front alone, waiting for the kind of service he needs to score. Given Spurs erratic form week by week it must have been frustrating for him. When your team mates are simply not in the same class as you, then it would drive you to insanity. Despite not getting the service he requires, he has still scored 23 goals in the past two seasons and 11 assists last year. In a team that scored just 66% of the goals United did!

Our first Angolan player, who signed in January, but couldn’t get a work permit, has finally arrived at OT. Some fans can’t wait to see him in action, some say he’s not up to United’s standard. Whatever you think of Manucho, I invite you to enjoy his goals for Panathinaikos:

‘66 was a great year for English football.
Eric was born.

Hailed as the most influential player of the most influential team in British football, Eric Cantona was the catalyst for some of Manchester United’s greatest successes of the 1990s. With his swagger and a unique termperament, Cantona welcomed the limelight of Old Trafford and quickly became a crowd favorite and as Dimitar Berbatov has pointed out, he never smiled either. Even with his abrupt exit from the greatest stage, his many brilliant goals, are cherished as some of the greatest footballing memories that the Old Trafford faithful have had.

Many of you think it was the most stupid thing to do or just a moment of madness, but I see it as the most beautiful goal ever scored with a hand.

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Paul Scholes with the most magnificent Hand of God goal.

You are pure class Scholsey, we LOVE YOU!!!
