Joe Cole snubbed Mancheste United for Liverpool, fool? |
High expectations always become higher with controversies! This time too, we have one. England midfielder Cole became one of the most high-profile free agents of recent years when he was not offered a new contract by Chelsea at the end of last season. At one time Manchester United were favorites to net him. However, he signed a four year contract with Liverpool which led to Sir Alex claiming the dealings could have been 'complicated'. Now, with Cole already named in the squad which would charge against United tomorrow, the fixture becomes all the more interesting.
United and Scottish Midfielder Darren Fletcher has insisted that the team needs to showcase their 'killer instinct' against their arch-rivals. Expressing concern over the below average performances of his team lately, Fletcher was quoted by The Mirror as, "What we’re missing just now is the killer instinct, we need to change that."
Meanwhile, all-time great Paul Scholes insisted that the Manchester United and Liverpool rivalry would never end, but would grow with each passing year. "Liverpool did not have a great season last year but whenever you play them it is still a massive game.", said Scholes.
With no major changes in the team as such, Ferguson has claimed that Berbatov would be back for the game and Vidic would resume the captaincy!
