Rest

I'm at home for reasons which I shall not reveal.

Meanwhile, Berbatov seems to be moving to Manchester United as seen here. Finally we have someone to play alongside Tevez. I feel that this strike partnership will work as they seem to have complementary playing styles. Imagine a formation like this:

Van der Saar in Goal
Neville, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra covering the defence.
Ronaldo, Scholes, Nani/Giggs playing a three man midfield.
Rooney in the hole.
Tevez, Berbatov up front.

And look at who we have for backup. Anderson, Hargreaves, Brown, Park, Carrick, O'Shea, The Da Silva twins, Flecteher....

Looks like we have another serious title contender on our hands.

That being said, I think we need to find a replacement for Van der Saar soon. He is not getting any younger and who knows when he will announce his retirement. Foster looks promising but someone needs to fill the gap before Ben Foster takes his place between the posts. Kuszczak doesn't have the quality to do the job in my opinion.
