A season to Fer-get

Losing Ronaldo to Real Madrid, Tevez to city-rival Man City before the start of the season 2009/2010, and with no big-name signings for the season, is not something every Man Utd fan in this world wanted to see. As expected, the season ended with disappointments. Embarassing 3rd round FA Cup defeat to Leeds United from League One, Quarterfinal Champions' League exit at the hand of Bayern Munich, and playing 2nd fiddle in the Premier League to Chelsea were bitter pills to be swallowed by all United fans.

Although Ferguson still trying to put up a brave face in summarizing this season's performance, but the fact is, this team is just not good enough. Lacklustre performance by 30-millions-pounds striker Berbatov, ineffective wingers like Nani/Valencia/Obertan, injury-proned Michael Owen, the three oldies of Neville/Giggs/Scholes who are at the wrong end of 30s in their careers, embarassing 7 league defeats to Burnely, Fulham, Aston Villa, Liverfool, Everton and Chelsea (2) summed up our season. The only bright points of the season are the mesmerizing form of Rooney, successfully defending League Cup (in fact the 1st cup Ferguson ever successfully defended) and the superb 3-2/4-0 round-16 win against AC Milan in Champion's League.

Every United fan is wondering what are the changes Ferguson will bring in during the summer to bring back the glory to Old Trafford. Hope Ferguson will get back his magic touch again by defying the odds against him everytime...
