KAIZER CHIEFS VS MAN UNITED PREVIEW.


Being a United fan, i was expecting a mid-week fixture following the game on Saturday against Aberdeen....and how frustrated i was when i realised it was only pre-season. We dread fixtures in a proper season and yet we yearn for them in the off-season. Why doesn't anybody talk about fixture congestion in the summer? Anyway, United arrived in South Africa today at 8a.m for their tour which basically involves participating in the Vodacom Challenge Cup against Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates. We begin against the Chiefs on Saturday afternoon. It's good that Sir Alex has taken a strong team as well as a handful of rookies. The only blemish on squad selection is probably Danny Welbeck who many thought would be given his chance in the first team on this tour. The good news though is that Fraizer Campbell will take part.(he only has the small matter of displacing Tevez and Rooney!) Kaizer Chiefs, for their part , had a below par season, by their standards last year and will therfore look to restore some of their glory by beating the European Champions(GOD FORBID!)
