Wayne Rooney that’s who. The lad never ceases to amaze me! First there were critics about his form, so he decides to tear Wigan apart with one of the most dazzling performances I have ever seen. Then people moan about him not scoring, so he grabs a hat-trick. Job done we can all go home now!
Yesterday saw us take on Bolton that was pitted as a top 3 clash. Indeed it was with Bolton looking stronger than ever this season. They had only conceded 4 goals all season, so we new it would be hard to go to the Reebok stadium and break them down. Well as it turned out, it wasn’t difficult at all.
We started the game brightly with slick fast passing. The overlaps were working, the through balls simply dazzling and it only took a minute before we should have been ahead. Rooney was looking to make a nuisance of himself from the off and could have easily latched onto a Ryan Giggs cross to make it 1-0 before Bolton had even realised the game had kicked off!
It wasn’t long until Rooney broke the deadlock. A superb ball form Michael Carrick set Rooney through for him to finish coolly. It was Rooney’s second goal that was the best of the three. He drove a low curling shot in the bottom right corner, when it seemed that the England international couldn’t see the goal.
Ronaldo made it 3-0 with a simple tap in, when Saha unselfishly passed to the Portuguese trickster. United were cruising and making Bolton look like a second rate team. The fourth came in the 89th minute with a superb piece of solo play from Rooney to grab his hat-trick.
Man of the match has to go to Rooney who yet again gave a royal to fingered gesture to any critics he may have had by grabbing a hat-trick. One to watch however was Michael Carick. Much of United’s creativity came through him. There were many defence splitting passes orchestrated by the England international and it seemed that today he was comfortable in controlling things!
We even had Hansen praising United on Match of the day… we must be playing well! So we are back at the top having increased our goal difference and things are still looking rosy. Chelsea have by no means got it easy this season! Bring on the Russians!
