The Drama Builds In Manchester

Manchester United is embroiled in a whole world of drama at the moment. As of right now manager Sir Alex Ferguson has said that he has every confidence that Manchester United will be able to acquire the services of Dimitar Berbatov by the start of next season. Despite Tottenham filing a complaint with the FA over Manchester United’s pursuit of their star striker.
Although I can’t figure why Tottenham would even want him at this point, as Berbatov has all but checked out. He doesn’t want to play for Tottenham anymore, the Bulgarian skipper only shows up during the matches that don’t matter, and couldn’t be bothered when they do.
Also Ferguson has finally responded to rumors about Ronaldo stating that once and for all, Ronaldo won’t be sold under any circumstances this year. Although the Portuguese winger will be absent for three months after having had ankle surgery. But this just opens the door for Manchester United to show that Ronaldo isn’t that necessary to the squad.
after all, don’t forget about the great Wayne Rooney, who is much more important to the squad as a whole.
Patrice Evra has also come under fire, for supposed incident during the April 26 match last season at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea. Supposedly Evra and a member of the Chelsea ground staff argued and the Chelsea worker used a racial slur against Evra. To which Evra unfortunately responded, unethically, and now may face a ban to start next season.
So apparently the drama doesn’t stop in Manchester, not even for the off season.
