Sir Alex Ferguson has spent 25 years as the manager of Manchester United and he has won the Premier League 12 times, FA Cup 5 times, League Cup 4 times, the Champions League twice, 10 Community/Charity Shields and one each of the now defunct Cup Winners’ Cup, Intercontinental Cup, FIFA World Club Cup and UEFA Super Cup. In his time, he has build and rebuilt at least 4 teams that have contributed in a large part to the trophies he has won and the legacy he has built at Old Trafford. The biggest and the highlight of all his achievements would undoubtedly be the Treble of 1999.  Hours away from our big FA Cup tie against our neighbours and current Premier League leaders, Manchester City, let’s look back to understand how special the Treble triumph was. What better way to do that then by assessing the trophies that we missed out on, on a couple of occasions as one of Sir Alex’s great teams went close to winning the Treble before and after 1999.

After the ex-England midfielder joins City as a free agent having left Manchester United at the end of last season. The fans had many arguments about Hargreaves loyalty (when loyalty can be bought or sold seemingly on a quirk) and why he decided to play with City (where his chances to play are few) however he said he can play more than 40 games this season!

Today I won’t be talking about the reasons which let Owen moved to city (Maybe he is lazy to move to a new house!), I will be little funny and talk about 5 scenarios for Owen Hargreaves career with Man City: Read the full story

Welcome to the eigth episode of the Red Dead Podcast, the stupendous Manchester United podcast for Truly Reds, brought to you as always by Tom “Darren Fletcher” Addison and Liam “Wrestlemania” Brown.

This week we analyse United’s cracking performance against l’Arse and bask in the (Red Dead) redemption of our favourite Spanish ‘keeper. We also take a lot at the best of the football from around Europe and, perhaps unfairly, tear into Scottish football a little bit.

We also offer our view on the surprising transfer of Owen Hargreaves to Manchester City, and also rip to shreads an article written by a Liverpool fan, comparing the current United squad with the current Scouse one.

Comments, feedback and questions are greatly appreciated, you can contact us on reddeadpodcast@hotmail.co.uk 

Remember, you can also follow us, and Truly Reds, on Twitter: @TrulyReds @TomRDPodcast and @LiamRDPodcast

Due to the international break we won’t be podcasting for another couple of weeks, but don’t worry! I’m sure we’ll have plenty to discuss for next time, including what Liam’s favourite soup is and how much Tom weighs.

Sir Alex Ferguson heaped praise on his injury-ravaged Manchester United team today for marking his 24th anniversary as manager with a 2-1 win over Wolves. Park Ji-sung struck the winner two minutes into injury time, just as it seemed United were about to lose more ground to Chelsea in the title race. The South Korean’s near post effort gave United their sixth successive win and they head into Wednesday’s Manchester derby at Eastlands in confident mood, even if their ranks are somewhat depleted.

The announcement by veteran Manchester United striker Michael Owen that he’s seriously considering hanging up his boots at the end of this season adds another name to the likely exodus from Old Trafford. It will force manager Sir Alex Ferguson to give his squad an almighty shake up not seen for many years.

Can it possibly be true? Granted, it’s only been reported in the dubious News of The World but Owen Hargreaves is finally going to make a comeback for Manchester United. The former England international is pencilled in to turn out against the Wolves in the Carling Cup in less than a month but it still remains difficult to believe after so many false hopes were raised in the past. An EXCLUSIVE byAidan Magee on Sunday revealed the unexpected news but BEWARE, nothing was quoted by anyone and for all we know it may be no more than a personal opinion of his.
