Great news 
Some top performances tonight. First half we didn't create too much against a spirited Peterborough side. Second half we were amazing - some of the Peterborough players would've been tiring but the way we passed the ball around was very good. Ruud looks sharp, Ronaldo was doing his usual flicks and tricks AND delivering an end product. Scholes and Giggs had good games, as did Smith, Eckersley was steady again and the rest of the defense were rarely tested.
Oh, and one final point.
Tonight pretty much confirmed to everyone what a lot knew already. Rossi is ready for a taste of first team action next season - I've no doubt about it. The way he linked up with Ruud and co today was hopefully a taste of what is to come in the future, especially the first touch, turn, leave 2 defenders for dead and roll it into Ruud for the 1st goal. And what a well taken goal himself, could've had another from a placed shot that was very well saved early in the 2nd half. Just how many run outs SAF will give him next season remains unknown but I bet SAF would've decided that Rossi will make his Premiership debut at some point this season.

Was Rio booed today? And how did Jones and Pique play?
Highly entertaining game.
6-0 and this despite us having an own goal ruled our for offside , and having about 500 decent penaty appeals turned away.
1st half team was shite again, with the exception of Jones, Bardsley and Pique. Richarson gets on my nerves, he's always got to try and beat someone, and he cant, because he's crap.
Second half again much better. Ruud and Ronnie looking sharp, Rossi very impressive

now the question is, how do we fit rossi in the team with the likes of Ruud, Rooney, Ronaldo already a starter...what do you guys reckon?
Was Rio booed as much as in the last game?
From what I heard he did alright. "Chelsea Rent Boy" and "Greedy cnut". Serves the fecker right but I don't think it'll make him sign any sooner if at all. On aother note, I caught one of Ruud's goals, lovely turn in the box and a nice finish. Keep it up fella.very Ruud said:
Is it worth watching the game? They show it here tonight.
Second half. Don't bother with the first, it was the epitome of shit
