OTD 02 – "It's Van Nistelrooy again, can you believe this? You've got to believe it!" One of the great nights and one of the great ends, as United come from 2-0 down to knock Villa out of the Cup.
The last great Rooney drive, right when United needed it and saving the world from the ignominy of Pardew’s dance being immortalised in football folklore.

OTD 12 - United are drawing 2-2 at City having tossed a two-goal lead and it’s well into Fergie-time when
@Persie_Official
steps up to take a free-kick. Surely he couldn't...
OTD 09 – United go Wolfsburg and Fergie picks Kuszczak; Park, Carrick, Fletcher, Evra; Gibson, Anderson, Scholes, Nani; Welbeck, Owen. Somehow, United win 3-1 with Owen scoring thrice.

Roy Keane at 50, then. In the 38 years I've been watching English football, no player has dominated it to the same extent as he did. Not Shearer, not Henry, not Ronaldo. No one.
Ppl always wanna have ‘greatest PL striker ever’ debates. Ask yourself how many other strikers could do things like this in any game, let alone a CL final?? Rooney was built differently.
OTD 10 – "Yet again, United have put City in their place!" Wayne Rooney scores the second Fergie-time derby-winner of the season to send united to Wembley on a wild Old Trafford night.
OTD 11 – One of the great late Fergie-era performances as Antonio Valencia runs over Ashley Cole and United more or less confirm the title by tearing up Chelsea.
OTD 02 – The bafflingly overrated David Beckham pokes in a fluke away to Depor as United play brilliantly and win 2-0 in their Champions League quarter-final, first leg.
OTD 02 – Phil Nev tramples all over Vieira, Juan Sebastián Verón performs one of the great celebrations, and United win their fourth colossal game in a row. The steal is on.
OTD 94 – "It's hooked back in for Hughes ... IT'S THERE!" United's greatest-ever big-game player – no offence

OTD 04 - Saha (2) and Van Nistelrooy put United 3-0 up at Goodson then Everton bring it back to 3-3 … before Ronaldo and Van Nistelrooy conjure a great late winner.
OTD 10 – One of the very greatest goons as United hilariously fergietime City for the third time in the season, keeping their title hopes alive in the process. They end the day a point off Chelsea – who lose at Spurs – in second.
