Sir Alex Ferguson praises Wayne Rooney as Manchester United decimate Arsenal – English Premier League
Sir Alex Ferguson has come out and praised Manchester United’s performance along with Wayne Rooney’s display at Old Trafford as the Red Devils gained an impressive and an unprecedented 8-2 win over Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal. Arsenal
who were weakened through the injuries to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-Song-c4804 failed to keep up with the tempo and pace of Manchester United’s play at Old Trafford and in the end they were subjected to a humiliating
defeat.
Manchester United took no prisoners at Old Trafford as they were ruthless in their finishing at the Theatre of Dreams. It was http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-c9879 Welbeck who opened the scoring at Old Trafford with a fortunate header but there was nothing coincidental
or lucky about the rest of Manchester United’s goals which were of top quality to say the least. The 8-2 win consisted of a hatrick by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 who scored from two free kicks and a penalty kick. Ashley Young scored two goals as well whilst assisting three
goals. His link up play with Rooney was outstanding in the final third of the field. Park Ji Sung also netted a goal as he came on in the second half as a substitute.
Arsenal went a man behind in the second half as well due to Carl Jenkinson’s sending off which capped off their nightmare at Old Trafford. Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Fergusons spoke after the match as he said that Manchester United’s 8-2 win against
Arsenal came out of blue because one does not expect it to happen often. He also stated that United did score six goals against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 in the past but Manchester United hit the right form with Arsenal and that is why the London club suffered.
Arsene Wenger is indeed in trouble after his team’s failure to show up at Old Trafford as fans are calling for his removal from the club. The Gunners are desperate to add to their squad as Arsene revealed after the match but they
are finding it hard to attract big names to the Emirates stadium especially after they parted ways with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Samir-Nasri-c32360, Cesc Fabregas and Gael Clichy in the summer.
Sir Alex said in his post-match interview, “We’ve had a couple of big results against them in the past, but when you see Arsenal’s team like that, we do expect to score goals. I felt all their quality was in the forward positions
and they were a threat at times. They could have scored more than two goals. The Manchester United manager also praised Wayne Rooney as he stated, “He’s thriving in his role of leader of the front players. Welbeck’s young, Hernandez is young, Ashley Young
has just joined and Wayne’s thriving in the responsibility and I think that’s important.”
