2 Victories on the trot. And the Devils go marching on. Albeit, unconvincing once again. Least, we've got our scoring touch back. It should have very well ended, 3-0 but for 2 costly defensive lapses. 90 seconds on the clock at Craven Cottage, it looked as tho it was going to be yet another tricky saturday afternoon. Rio Ferdinand, the worlds most expensive defender at 30 million pounds, sure left a lot to be desired for he was guilty for both blunders.

"It was end-to-end action and Fulham played a great part, they were a real handful. But, even so, some of our football was scintillating in the first half, really terrific" said Fergie during his post match interview.

Forget the goal scorers, the star of the show was clearly our Korean import, Park Ji Sung, who had his best game yet for united having played a huge part in all 3 goals. He won the penalty which Ruud converted with ease after a pulsating burst into the Fulham penalty box before being thwarted off the ball by a reckless Fulham challenge. He set up the second goal with a through ball for Rooney which left him in acres of space only for him to pick his spot which left Crossley with no chance whatsoever. The 3rd final goal was testament to how much of a team player he was as he left Ruud with an open goal before him when most players who have been tempted to go for glory on their own.

Goalscorers

The only downside being Richardson's injury which adds on to our already frail defence. Least we've got silvestre back now. Rio's just gotta pull up his socks. For the money, we pay him, we deserve more outta him. We've gotta work on defending in swinging, looping free kicks that have pegged us down twice now. Once against blackburn and once yesterday, both from different flanks. Back to the training ground basics, im afraid.

Now lets hope Chelsea drop points against Liverpool tonight. It'll just be the icing on the cake on a perfect week for us. On the back of the 2 victories, we're gunning for our next scalp: Sunderland. That however will have to wait for 2 weeks, with the upcoming world cup qualifiers.
