Manchester United win the Community Shield

Manchester United beat Portsmouth 3-1 on penalties to win the first silverware of the season.
It was really funny watching this game because the moment they went to penalties i said to myself Portsmouth will win, because i have more faith in James as a goalkeeper than i do in Van Der Saar, but as soon as Diarra missed the first penalty, I said to myself, its over Manchester United won.

Is it just me or did Crouch and Defoe not work as well as we all thought they were?

Oh! and what did we all think about Gary "Wheelchair" Neville playing after what seems like an eternity?

Carlos Tevez is a much better player than he was when he arrived at Manchester United, with Ronaldo injured until October, someone is going to have to step up and i think it will be Tevez.

Congratulations to Manchester United.

Community Shield

The Community Shield is tomorrow! and I can't wait. I know the Community Shield is probably the least important of all the silverware you can win , but what i love about the Community Shield is that it means the Premiership is only a week away!

So it will be the EPL winners (and Champions League winners might i add) Manchester United against the 8th place, FA Cup winners Portsmouth.

So do Pompey have a chance? I think they do, true Portsmouth didn't have to beat a "big" team to throughout the FA Cup, but they are a quality side, they have good players and a good manager and Manchester United have a lot of their top players out, Pompey can take advantage of United's injuries.

Manchester United have Ronaldo, Carrick, Ferdinand, Rooney and Hargreaves injured and Anderson at the Olympics. But its still Manchester United you can NEVER underestimate them, injuries or no injuries.

So who do i want to win? Portsmouth of course! I'm going for the underdog.
Who do i think will win? Manchester United.
I want to make this clear, I am a Liverpool fan and so by nature i hate Manchester United and never want to see them win, but i do respect them, their players and their manager. So i might joke around about how much i hate them, but at the end of the day i respect them.

Good luck to Pompey! I hope its a good game!
