Hindsight, making people look stupid // sports

74 days ago by netherton

I wrote this on Anderson last month for Life’s a Pitch: I was incredibly wrong. When Manchester United decided they were unwilling to match the haughty demands of Wesley Sneijder on deadline day, they took a risk. The flimsy midfield was Sir Alex Ferguson’s blindspot.
