It was a beautiful Sunday evening at Wembley as United made it 6 wins in 6 games after a thrilling encounter against Tottenham.

Here are five things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from this super victory:

1. NEW UNITED, NEW RASHFORD.
Manchester United look like a 'newborn' team. The boys are happy, confident and motivated.

Marcus 'Rashidi-Yekini' in like manner, looks like fresh 'suya' from the fire, too hot to handle!!


He scored his 40th goal for United today and has now scored in 3 consecutive games for the first time in his career.

2. 'POGBA THE VIRUS!!!'
The French 'Swaggerlicious' midfielder who was labelled a virus, has proven to be a real virus, not to United but to all opponents.


His pass to Rashford for the goal was simply 'Chivita-stic'. He now has 4 goals and 4 assists in 6 games for Solskjaer......May all 'anti-viruses' tremble!!!

3. FROM MIS-FIT TO BEST-FIT
Our 'Jollof' defender, Victor Lindelof, had a horrid start to h…

Manchester United launched 2019 with a clash against Newcastle United. It was a perfect start for Solskjaer's squad as Rafa Benitez and his boys were blown away thanks to goals from Rashford and Lukaku.


Here are five things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from 2019 take-off.
1. PARK THE BUS FORMATION. Newcastle came into the game with fear and trembling. They brought a very big bus with them and parked it in front of their goal post.
It was nice watching a game in which a bus was parked but not by Manchester United.
2. BENDING IT LIKE CR-7. Our 'whiz-kid', Marcus 'Rashidi-Yekini' once again rattled the Newcastle goalkeeper with his free-kick which is improving daily. He took it well, bent it like CR-7 and it was too hot to handle.


His finish for the 2nd goal was unlike him; super calm. The Solskjaer effect is gradually taking effect.
3. LIKE SOLSKJAER LIKE SUPER SUB In his playing days, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was 'Igwe' Ferguson's super sub.He has brought that sp…

It was a glorious night at Turin, as Manchester United in a typical Naija fashion, 'put pepper into Juventus eye'. For the second consecutive game, United snatched victory in Fergie-time; Say hello to the new Comeback kings!!


Here are five(5) things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from this super comeback:


1. DE GEA VS RONALDO
Having scored a hatrick against our own 'Osinachi' De Gea at the world cup, CR-7 did it again with a fantastic volley. It was indeed a beauty.




The most interesting part of the goal was De Gea's reaction. He looked at Ronaldo and looked at the ball inside his net and seemed to say 'Na lie!'.....Well, thank God De Gea had the last laugh.

2. ANOTHER JUAN-TASTIC FREE KICK.
For the 10th time in his career, Juan 'Bankole' Mata scored a 'Hossana' free-kick. It was beautiful seeing the ball dancing 'One-corner dance' inside the Juventus goal.


Juan Mata seems to have oiled his free-kick boots and at this rate, if United have a f…

Manchester United paid a visit to the Cherries for a match day 11 clash at the Vitality Stadium.
An initial 'gra-gra' saw Bournemouth score in the first 10 minutes.However  a Fergie-time comeback ensured that Manchester United came out victorious.

Here are five(5) things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the clash:
1. UNITED LOVE THE VITALITY STADIUM
Before today, Bournemouth's last defeat at the Vitality Stadium was against Manchester United in April.  In addition, United have won their last two visits to the Vitality Stadium with an aggregate of 5-1.

Today, despite United's poor form, the Vitality stadium luck shone again and the complete 3 points were taken in 'Fergie-time'.
2. PAINFUL 30 MINUTES
The first  30 minutes of the first half was a horror movie. It was painful to watch United. Bournemouth converted the game to a practice session.


We chased the ball like children trying to  catch a butterfly. There was no shape,  no rhythm, we were one goal down and did n…

Manchester United welcomed Everton, her favourite 'customer' in the history of the EPL to Old Trafford for another clash on matchday 10.


Here are five(5) things ManUtdNaijaFM learnt today:

1. 'MARTIAL ARTS'
Anthony "Ikechukwu' Martial put up another dazzling display today. He was a consistent 'Chuku-chuku' (thorn) in the flesh of the Everton defenders.


He iced his performance with a 'COKE-astic' goal, after gifting United a penalty in the first half. We want more of 'this Martial'.

2. POGBA: THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY.
United's 'Swaggerlicious' midfielder had a game with all shades today.
From almost missing a penalty, through being at fault for Everton's goal, to finally assisting Martial for his second goal, the French man had it all today.


It appears Pickford came ready for him as he denied him severally with some really good saves.

3. ALEXIS NEEDS A SEAT BELT
Though sad and still unbelievable, the exile of  Alexis &…

A thrilling game at Stamford Bridge saw Manchester United and Chelsea share the spoils. The Blues seemed headed for yet another chance win against United, until two 'CHIVITAstic' finishes from Martial turned the game in United's favour.


Here are Five(5) things ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the clash.

1. ANTHONY 'IKECHUKWU' MARTIAL TO THE RESCUE
What a performance on the biggest stage. The French winger scored two 'fearfully and wonderfully' made goals to put United in the lead after going behind to a Chelsea goal. He has now scored 3 goals and assisted 1 in his last 3 starts for United.


Another day at the office, proving yet again why he's United's best option on the left. At this point, Alexis Sanchez should either be played on the right wing, or RIGHT BENCH.




2. FIRST HALF 'KPALAVA'
Another day, another horrible first half performance from the Red Devils. The Red Devils started the match with their 'anywhere-bele-face' football as usual, …

Manchester United welcomed Newcastle to Old Trafford amidst 'amebo' gist up and down pointing at José Mourinho's sack.

2 Newcastle goals in 10 minutes  felt like it was over for United. A Fergie-like 2nd half revival saw United reply with 3 goals to end the tie at 3-2.


Here are five(5) things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the clash.

1. UNITED PLAYERS ARE NOT ON STRIKE
Watching the attitude of the players today, especially in the 2nd half, it was clear that the players had followed the footsteps of the 'NLC' and suspended their rumoured strike, to put in a 2nd half performance showing passion and grit.

2. PAUL 'IKENNA' POGBA IS A PROFESSIONAL
Despite being the most criticised at United at the moment, and the only one who's rift with the boss is no longer a rumour, the Frenchman still stood tall today with a world class performance at the heart of United's midfield.


To add 'goat meat to his stew', the French maestro laid on a FANTA-bulous backheel…

With trembling hearts and failing 'liver', Manchester United headed to Turf Moor searching for a positive vibe on match day 4 against Burnley. 2 goals from Romelu Lukaku ensured that United finally had something to smile about.


Here are 5 things ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from this clash:
1. LUKE SHAW IS  SURELY SURE
United's left full back Luke 'Ajebota' Shaw, is now looking like the bombing left back from Southampton. He's been United's best player this season, despite the team's poor start.
His confidence on the ball was amazing and he was a constant 'wahala' for the Burnley defence today. He has earned Mourinho's trust.


2. THE FELLAINI PLAN
Seeing 'Oga Fela' in the starting line up today made United fans go wild with anger. As the game went on, it became clear why Jose started him.
The defence has been 'shaky-shaky' this season, and so Fellaini was brought in as a false 3rd centre back. Well, it worked as honestly, he was excelle…

After 36 long years of failing to beat Brighton Hove Albion at the Amex stadium, United made another effort and ended up with one of the most woeful performances of the José Mourinho era as they were mercilessly beaten 3-1 (sorry 3-2.....I forgot we scored in injury time).

Here are five (5) matters arising from this defeat.


1. IT WAS UNITED VS BRIGHTON 'MUNICH'. It was unbelievable that United were not only beaten, but outclassed and outplayed by a team that did not have a single goal attempt/shot on target against Watford last weekend.

Brighton looked fantastic, defending well and looking dangerous on the attack. United made them look like 'Brighton-Munich. ....Infact, #NaDemDeRushUs.
2. SUNDAY AWARD NITE It appears the Sunday evening clash was an award ceremony for Brighton. Glenn Murray was allowed his 1st ever goal against Manchester United, Duffy (scorer of the 2nd goal) was gifted his 1st ever Premier league goal.



To add 'Palm wine to the Pepper soup', Brighton…

United opened the 2018/2019 Premier league season ''TGIF" clash with Leicester City at Old Trafford. It ended on a beautiful note as 2 goals from Paul Pogba and Luke Shaw gave United a 2-1 victory.


Here are 5 things ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from this clash:
1. THE WORLD CUP CONTINUED
For our 'swaggerlicious' midfielder and world cup winner Paul 'Ikenna' Pogba, it was indeed a continuation of Russia 2018. He picked up right from where he stopped at Moscow. He opened the goal account for United with a well taken penalty, beating the 'professor of penalty saves' Kasper Schmeichel. 

What a night for Pogba; he wore the captain's arm band, had a good game and scored the 1st goal of the season!!
2. THE WORLD CUP IS OVER.
On the other end of the pitch, our own David 'Osinachi' De Gea put his world cup misery behind him where he made only one save out of 12 shots fired at him.


He picked up from where he left off last season making point blank saves l…

Before we finally shift our focus to the return of club football, before the tension of another fast and furious season kicks in, here are five things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from United's representatives in the Russia 2018 World Cup.

1. DE GEA'S MEMORY CARD FULL
In an unfortunate turn of events, David 'Osinachi' De Gea ruined his chances of being named Goalkeeper of the Year with his performances for Spain at the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

The 'Igwe' of goalkeepers, English Premier League chapter faced 12 shots(including penalties) at the World Cup and saved just 1.


Could it be that he saved too much shots for Manchester United during the past season?
Could it be that his memory card for saving shots is full?



Whatever be the case, we wish him safe journey back to Manchester and we hope he has formatted that memory card in preparation for the new season.
Still our number one!

2. POGBA DESERVES SOME ACCOLADES
World cup U20 winner
Serie A winner (2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2…

What a game! What a day! What an El-Manchesco derby! Manchester United paid a courtesy visit to the Etihad for a game of pride.


Two 'sharp-sharp'(quick) goals from Pogba and a make up goal from Smalling were enough to buy red paint to paint Manchester Red!
Here are 5 things Man United Naija FM learnt from this clash:
1. WHAT DID HE SAY AT HALF TIME? United started the game in an awful way; arguably the worst first half in football history. There was no drive, sloppy passes, no goal attempt, nothing!
Whatever José 'Uchenna' Mourinho told his boys at half time was magical as a revived team appeared without a single substitution. He made millions of United fans delete their halftime tweets, Facebook status updates and Instagram posts of abuses.

2. SAME TIME, SAME STATION 6 YEARS LATER Chris 'Okonta' Smalling was guilty of allowing Kompany 'delete' him to score the 1st goal. It was indeed a photocopy of the mistake he made in April 2012 at the Etihad where he…
