... cheeky reply from fergie before the derby match with regards to possibility of united playing second fiddle to the citizen.
i missed this game as it was on the first day of hari raya. a friend back in kl updated the score via text messages. 1-0 ... 1-1 ... 2-1 ... 2-2 ... i know i missed a blinder! in the end, fergie's charges made sure he did not have to swallow back his words when united came out top in one of the most pulsating derby ever seen in manchester.
ever so sweet when the killer punch came from owen, a player that was brought in to replace tevez and did not cost anything to united. like a true gentleman, he did not take all the credit to himself and only had this to say "... never going to pass up an opportunity to play for team like this". great stuff!
