The Title Winning Season in Review: Wigan Athletic (A) October 14th
By: Nick | June 6th, 2007The short trip West to Wigan resulted in another fine victory to continue the assault on Chelsea’s Premiership crown. Second half goals from Vidic, Saha and the pick of the bunch by Solskjær, once again evidenced United’s ability to spread the goals around.
The Guardian noted that Wigan’s early strike would merely prove an act of provocation:
“There is no more exhilarating sight in English football than watching Wayne Rooney et al chase a game and, given time, they can be ruthless when it comes to meting out their punishments”.
While a flummoxed Paul Jewell was left to reflect:
“With Ruud van Nistelrooy gone they’re sharing the goals more. Rooney’s showing his true colours again. Giggs was incredible. Once they went to 4-4-2 they battered us, absolutely annihilated us.”
Argue that.
