No question about the fact that the busiest club in Europe now is Manchester United. After fighting their way to the summit of the English Premiership, United now turn their attention to Cup duty. The Carling Cup second-leg against Derby County presents a chance for the youngsters to win themselves a trip to Wembly Stadium on March 1. More on that in the preview but one wonders how many United fans still have finger nails.
Watching the team scrap 1-0 wins in the most dramatic of circumstances has certainly not helped. Many of us are torn between which of the remaining 4 trophies we should win this season. It's a big ask to win all so definitely a choice has to be made. The Carling Cup right now seems the easiest to bag as a we could easily hop past Derby(on our day) and meet Spurs in the final--which definitely would never be the most difficult of finals for us.
Sir Alex has already said he will not risk the League for the Carling Cup so that definitely tells us one or two things about his aim. Of course there is always the European Cup which we shall give a shot come Feb.
Ideally nobody will be complaining if we add another couple of trophies to what we have already won this season. We cannot, however, end the season empty handed given all the fronts we are challenging on. Perhaps the FA Cup sounds better to others.
BUT AGAIN WHY NOT DEFY HISTORY AND MAKE HISTORY BY WINNING ALL OF THEM!
