Match Review 27: United end the month of February in a thrashing fashion

                    

Wigan Athletic 0-4 Manchester United 
Chicharito (17', 74') Rooney 84' Fabio 87' 

Manchester United eased past a weak Wigan Athletic side to end a rather important month in the calender of what seems to be a trophy-laden season which featured big games against Manchester City, Champions League draw against Marseille, FA Cup progression, a victory against Villa and a disappointing loss to Wolves. However March is the month to talk about for Manchester with some ultra-massive games against Chelsea and Liverpool (both away) and 2nd leg of Champions League against French team Marseille at home.

Moving focus back to this game, Chicharito was the star of the game in my opinion. The Pea faced assasin combined with Rooney and Nani on the flanks and demolish the Wigan side by 4 goals to nil with two goals coming from the Mexican, 1 easy tap in from Rooney and a happy ending goal by Fabio (Rafael's twin)

Chicharito has now scored a hat-trick of goals against Wigan this season, the last one coming at the home fixture at Old Trafford. This was one of his best full-game performances having said that he's a killer substitute. United's no. 14 today scored 2 more goals to take his goal tally to 13 for the season, only 7 behind Dimitar Berbatov, who could have easily made it 21 for the season but instead gave a sweet pass to team-mate Wayne Rooney who scored one of the easiest tap-ins of his career! The goal must have brought some pressure off Rooney, he's now scored regularly in his last two Premier League performances, the last one being a wonder-goal against Manchester City. How unselfish Dimi! How unselfish!

This reminds me of Luis Nani who had yet another impressive game. It seems like the lad only wants to improve at United. He recently said "This is my best season at Manchester United" and also didn't appreciate the fact that he was being constantly compared to Cristiano Ronaldo. The fact is, he just needs to pass the ball and not be a hungry goal poacher. Nani couldn't find any goals today but he did touch the inner edge of the goal post. How frustrating must that be? After that, he was constantly seen using bad words each time he took a bad shot.

Bebe and Obertan who didn't even make it to the substitute bench were observed entertaining through other means in the first half. Obertain was busy listening to his music through his Monster beats Dr. Dre headphones while Bebe was found playing a game on his smartphone. Perhaps the game was too boring in the first half.

To end the game in style, Fabio was brought on for Nani and guess what, Fabio scored. It looks like Fabio got the fruit of Nani's hard work through out the game.

Games against Wigan have always been a great opportunity for United to score as many goals as they can. They scored 10 goals in aggregate last season but only managed 6 this year (2-0 coming at Old Trafford, 4-0 at JJB)

Cleverley scores a FANTASTIC goal against West Ham, clinches a revenge (Video)

Tom Cleverley strikes against Hammers!

Tom Cleverly may make a United comeback soon enough

Tom Cleverley may be spotted in Red soon enough.

On Tuesday, 31/08/2010, we heard about the loan out of Tom Cleverley to Wigan Athletic, the youngest Premier League team after it's foundation in 1932.

But at the moment Tom Cleverly is blue at Wigan and be recalled in January, 2011

The move was pretty self-explanatory, the lad needed to gain some solid experience which would have never been achieved by staying at Manchester United where he only got the opportunity to represent the Reserves team. It had been impossible for him to break into the first team while the likes of Paul Scholes, Darren Fletcher, Jee Sung Park, Ryan Giggs, Nani and Michael Carrick were still there to handle the midfield. Hence, a move to Wigan Athletic was eyed as a great vision by the Basingtoke born, Tom Cleverley.

Sir Alex Ferguson has monitored the lad eversince he has moved to Wigan and feels he's ready to earn his place at United's first squad. Cleverley has mostly featured in the reserves team for the Lactics with only one first team appearance which happens to be his first Premier League game in his entire career. 


When will Tom Cleverley be back to Manchester United? It's mostly likely going to be in January 2011 when the transfer window re-opens.  As Sir Alex Ferguson said "We'll probably bring Tom back in January, he's going to be a great footballer and I really like him" says it all really.

Sir Alex added "I've heard the fans are starting to talk about Tom, and I think they're right to do that because he could very well be the next top player to come through the ranks."

Ferguson concluded "I felt it could be hard to give him enough football. I think five or six months on loan could really help him. He'll benefit from first-team football in the Premier League."

Perhaps this is Sir Alex's incentive to the young English midfielder who may as well be chosen for the England team soon enough, only if he's given the boost, only if he's given the experience.

Tom Cleverley scored twice in Manchester United pre-season tour to the United States of America, Mexico, Canada and Ireland.

Danny Welbeck was sent out to Sunderland on loan in the summer before Tom. However, there is no news about his return  to United yet although we hope that it is before next season kick starts.

Tom Cleverley was marvellous at the Pre-season tour to North America and Mexico.
