Manchester united has spent more than 50 Millions pound in the transfer market which saw their worst possible start. Their new signings Owen hargreaves and Anderson is yet to make their premiership debut while the crisis filled Tevez made very little impact in the 90 minutes. Nani who replaced Rooney in the first match and started the match against Portsmouth did not impress much.
With all the four new signings yet to make a impact , the Red Devils lost Rooney due to injury and wil; be out of action for the next couple of months. Only player who made some chances for Manchester united was ronaldo who played brilliantly against Portsmouth was sent off for head butting. This draw and ronaldo's red card clearly signs the title loss for the champions.
