After completing his Madrid switch, Manchester United’s in-house television station, MUTV, have produced a moving farewell tribute video of their former number seven, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Video: Antonio Valencia Signs For Man Utd



Manchester United first signing is Wigan Athletic's winger Antonio Valencia. He has penned a four-year deal for a fee reported to be close to £16 million.

The 23-year-old Ecuador international has been tracked by United manager Sir Alex Ferguson for a while.

Ferguson was evidently delighted with the transfer. He said, "Antonio is a player we have admired for some time now, having spent the last two years in the Premier League with Wigan.

"I am sure his pace and ability will make a significant contribution to the team."

Antonio Valencia had mirrored the joy felt by Ferguson. "Joining Manchester United is a dream come true for me. I have enjoyed my time at Wigan, but I am thrilled to have the chance to challenge for the biggest honours in club football here.

Playing in front of 76,000 fans alongside players like Wayne Rooney, Rio Ferdinand and Ryan Giggs will be an amazing experience. I can’t wait to get started," he said.

Video of Edin Dzeko, Man Utd Target In Action




Bosnian striker Edin Dzeko is Sir Alex Ferguson's replacement for Carlos Tevez??

Only 23 years of age, Dzeko has scored 16 goals in 24 starts for Wolfsburg. He has 9 goals in 15 starts for his country.

I have attached a video with Edin Dzeko scoring 2 goals for Wolfsburg against Bayern Munich.

He is quick and sharp in front of goal and will definitely be a good addition to the Manchester United strike force.

David Moyes To Take Over Alex Ferguson?

Alex Ferguson is contemplating David Moyes for the managerial job at Manchester United.

“David hasn’t got the credit he deserves. "When you take everything into consideration, he’s done an incredible job at Everton.

“He has not had the resources of other clubs but got all his younger players on long contracts and built around them with the likes of Phil Jagielka, Tim Cahill and Joleon Lescott.

“The signings he has made have been terrific and it means he has continuity for years.”-The Sun



Alex Ferguson is considering retirement at the end of the season and have dropped a big hint on who will succeed him when he steps down.

But is David Moyes good enough to step into Ferguson's big shoes?

David Moyes Credentials:

With Preston North End
Football League Second Division

* Champions - 1999–2000

With Everton FC

The League Managers Association Manager of the Year Award

* Winner - 2002-03, 2004-05

FA Premier League Manager of the Month

* Winner - September 2004, January 2006, February 2008, February 2009

North West Manager of the Year

* Winner 2007-08


I believes it is misguided to suggest Ferguson's replacement required status. Many people are looking for a certain type or profile and David Moyes does not necessarily have that. But i think it is the team performance on the pitch that mattered in the end.

David Moyes may just be the right man for the job.

Dynamic Duo bags award






SIR Alex Ferguson and Nemanja Vidic have won the Barclays manager and player of the month awards for the month of january.

The Red Devils won all five of their January league games without conceding a goal, and Vidic has been one of the star performers in defence. Kudos to Edwin Van der Sar's excellent work between the posts, but Vidic's is deserved winner given that Ferdinand is out injured.


It is Ferguson's 22nd manager of the month award and Vidic's first player of the month award.
