Man United Yankee Dollar Dandy

Manchester United the best team in the english premier will be doing a summer tour of the U.S.
The Ticket's are selling out fast the 80,000 ticket's for the Man U v Juventus game in New York in July have sold out within two hour's! while the Man U v Barcelona game in Philadelphia have sold 60,000 tickets in a hour! also the Man u v Celtic game in Seattle have sold all 67,000 ticket's!
Tour organizer Rob Schneider said we were aware of a incredible buzz about the game's even before the ticket's went on sale but the response has been amazing..
With some of the cream of Europe's soccer team's playing you won't be disappointed....

As far as i know they are playing a tournament in the U.S with themselves and other top European teams...
You will see some totally magical football!!

Sorry to say if they faced U.S teams Manchester United would tear them apart,they are one of the best teams in the world at club level.....

It's a shame you didn't get tickets as they are playing in New York!!!

Most countries would argue that that they have the best leagues in the world,it's close between the Italian league,Spanish League and the English League..
What you have to remember the league's have all different nationalities playing in them..!

As for the best Country well that's difficult.. Brazil,Spain and France have to be 3 of the best with England a little way behind,we just don't seem to get it together at National level...

Red and Yellow Card's

You get a yellow card for a bad tackle,dissent and other reason's this is your first warning if you do it again then you get another yellow card which means you get sent off..." 2 yellow card's = a Red"

To get a straight Red Card you have to do a really bad tackle or if you use a elbow or raise your hand's(throw a punch) to another player they you are off straight away...

It's about promoting the club and selling more merchandise. Bringing the sqaud and playing US teams increases Man Utd's exposure and allows American soccer to get more press. If they can develop their US academy you might see more players coming to the Premiership. They have just signed an American goalkeeper so could be the start of things?

Oh...gotcha. One of my best friends is a soccer player and completely obsessed with Man U. If we ever play Fifa 2003 on PS@ he refuses to be any other team.

I always start of the manger simulators with Man Utd, you can learn the game and even if your naff you should still win over 75% of your games.
