Manchester United-Tottenham 1-0 (1-0).
460 REGISTERED NORWEGIANS was at Old Trafford and then Manchester United win the season’s first three points. It is not surprising – Manchester United is Norway’s largest football club in terms of registered supporters. And when the second largest, the third largest and all other English football clubs also have started the season 2015/2016, it is ultimately the abstinences.
Although it is sad considering the Norwegian football, sad the sense that most people care more about what is happening in England than here at home, it is also very understanding.
PREMIER LEAGUE IS the world’s top football product. Dot. Yes, the Champions League is an international genius generating enormous sums and global interest in parallel with the major national leagues, but in competition with Premier League becomes even the world’s largest and most important club tournament for garnish raining. For nothing is sold for larger sums and runs better on pay-TV than the Premier League.
Just look at TV2.
There is a reason why the channel rates as it does.
MANCHESTER UNITED IS a cash machine and is again on its way to becoming the world’s biggest football club. Only equipment deal with Adidas team has – 75 million pounds over ten years – is annually almost as big as the Norwegian Football Association turnover of around a billion. And although I do not have all the budgets for 2015 head there is no large boom to assert that Manchester Uniteds equipment deal alone could financed throughout the Premier League this season.
While the incomes of Wayne Rooney could financed Lillestrøm Stabæk and Mjøndalen .
At least.
THE PERSPECTIVE BECAUSE services his salary is paid out of the eye, he should of course cove bit less on the ball when he got the opportunity to give Manchester United 1-0 at Tottenham. But he did not. He is not quite on yet. He is not Wayne Rooney at its sharpest. But the position he had acquired mid front Tottenham’s goals, along with the receipt of the pass to Ashley Young, was enough to help United to victory.
Because the Tottenham defender Kyle Walker’s desperate attempt to get the ball away before Rooney had used the time he had not ended with an own goal.
MANCHESTER UNITED WAS not good against Tottenham. Still runs the store much better than the team. And had Spurs been a bit sharper when the next few irascible occasions stole Uniteds possession the first quarter, they could quickly scored a few goals.
And won the game.
Michael Carrick SIGNIFICANCE for United was for all to see when he came back after ankle fracture in November last season. I’ve seen a statistic where the difference between Manchester United and non Carrick was an entirely points 2014/2015. The team won 2.44 points per game – without 1.44. And one toys with the numbers one can calculate that Manchester United would win the league in May about Michael Carrick had played all his previous season.
The Importance of Carrick then also the hour he played against Tottenham.
FOR ME WAS he match play the first 60 minutes. Tottenham’s Christian Eriksen was brilliant the first 20, Harry Kane had some brilliant engagements before he was alone, and as time went also grew Uniteds Juan Mata themselves increasingly into the game. Before defender Chris Smalling, who was solid and confident throughout, eventually showed defensive one on one characteristics that made a heavy and pushed finally a little easier for the home side.
Together with goalkeeper backlog Sergio Romero.
IT MEANS THAT Michael Carrick must play for Manchester United when he is healthy. He is the actual balance in the team. And safety. Not to speak about Ball winner who read your opponent, break down and that can start transitions Manchester United needs to take. And with a ball winner to Morgan Schneiderlin, who take absolut all duels uen winking, has United a transition weapons.
And then it suddenly no room for Bayern-signing Bastian Schweinsteiger.
THE LAST IS Of course, a luxury problem. Schweinsteiger at its best is a brilliant footballer. But where he is now, as when he loses the ball and gave Tottenham a good transition option Chris Smalling handled masterfully, he is most a problem.
Synonymous with a Manchester United who got away with horror.
