5 special moments Manchester United fans would love to relive again

#1 Enjoying Manchester United’s 2008 team

Manchester United v Blackburn Rovers - Premier League

While this is not a single match, nor a single moment in time, it was a truly magical part of Manchester United’s history under Sir Alex Ferguson. It was, arguably, one of the greatest ever Premier League sides, with world-class players all over the pitch.

When you have a defensive partnership as strong as Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidi?, you know that not many players are getting past those two, nor are you going to leak a lot of goals. Possibly the greatest centre-back pairing at the time, those two central defenders were pivotal in helping United maintain defensive stability and playing out from the back.

Moving through the team, you had a peak Paul Scholes, as well as an up-and-coming Michael Carrick. Park Ji-sung was anywhere and everywhere, who quickly was the subject of a chant to suggest the South Korean player had ‘three lungs’ because of his incredible work-rate.

And then you had an attack force that was like no other. Speed, precision, confidence, skill, desire and ruthless, the Red Devils’ attack contained some of the best players in the world at the time.

Ronaldo, Dimitar Berbatov, Carlos Tevez and Wayne Rooney normally occupied the four attacking positions, with runs being made across one another. This quartet had an amazing synchronicity between them, the reason as to why Manchester United scored 118 goals in all competitions.
