Man Utd 4 - 0 W.B.A.

Rooney creating panic - Once again Wayne Rooney was the catalyst for United's win, the England man continuing his fine recent form by scoring the first and creating further goals for Cristiano Ronaldo and substitute Nani.

I was expecting a less harsh result, but 4 goals for Utd are always welcomed! W.B.A. tried their best to keep it 0-0, and I was actually getting bored in the first half, but Rooney opened the goal box, and the rest is history. What can you say about this game?I am happy those players scored: Rooney slaps once again in the faces of those who were wondering if his age is becoming a problem, after scoring goal after goal for Man Utd and England;Ronaldo keeps up the good shape;I'm glad Nani scored, scoring even if you are less used can help the morale;To see Berbatov score was relieving... I'm glad he's beginning to blend into the team's game. Another possible win of this match may be Rafael. I think Fergie is doing well to promote young players in games like this one, against teams that are not so strong. The right-side defender position is one that needs back-up players to be promoted at MU, with Wes Brown not in his best shape and Neville maybe not so far from retreat.

To be honest, I'm more than glad MU won, because it's the small teams that have been making them problems lately.

I think this goal was very good for Ronaldo's morale considering the latest events.

The second half show from MU is awesome. I think SCott Carson played quite well in the first half but cannot contained the high pressure from MU player. What a nice day to see the different players score a goal. Rooney really deserves the man of the match award. He;s really looking like a different characters. There is more calmness in himself during the game. Plus, his finishing now get better. STVASILE is corect regarding Rafael. Beside this game, Fergie also gives him a first team run in Champion League game recently. I think the lads have a great future.

You're right about Rooney. I was also surprised to see him trying to calmly explain to the referee how he has held once instead of his usual aggressive protests.
