Lucky to come away with 3 points. Could easily have been 0, let alone 1. Good that it happened though. Would have been a final killing move to our hopes of the title.
Liked the fact that the team played without Rooney. Yes, they lacked the cutting edge, but that was more because of the wonderful pressure Wolves played with. Berbatov, although he did carry Tottenham on his shoulders, does not seem to be able to deliver when alone. He is fantastic when playing with someone else. His deft flicks and touches almost always result in scoring opportunities. However, he seems to have lost the confidence to be alone up front. However, I do believe his confidence will come back. He just needs to play often.
Nani should have done a little better. He was good, but was not very effective with his final acts sometimes. I am sure he will catch up, given that he too gets continuous play time on the pitch.
Very happy for Scholes. Although he does not command the game as much as he used to say 6-8 years ago, but does have an impact on the game. Valencia did well, everyone did well in fact. Wolves really deserve credit for having kept ManUtd at bay for so long.
Eagerly await the second leg of the Champions League encounter. Hope Becks has a great time at OT - Good enough so that he goes back home with fond memories, not so good that he goes back victorious. It is said that Rooney is doubtful for the game, I am not really bothered. I am sure United can play without him. Diouf was just unlucky today. He is sure to come good.
