United finally started their Premier League campaign with a one-sided victory over Newcastle at Old Trafford. The win came courtesy of first-half goals by Dimitar Berbatov and Darren Fletcher with Giggs adding third late in the 2nd half.
The Red Devils kicked off with Berbatov partnering Wayne Rooney up front, with Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez and Chris Smalling watching from the bench. Former Magpie Michael Owen was left out completely.
Four Premiership titles in a row wasn’t to be as Man Utd beat Stoke quite comprehensively at 4-0 but weren’t aided by Wigan who needed to beat Chelsea.
Goals in the first half from Darren Fletcher and an ever-reliable Ryan Giggs plus a Higginbottam own goal and Park header in the second half ensured that the Red Devils did their bit to keep the title chase alive but Wigans’ capitulation against Chelsea meant it was not to be.
Wayne Rooney scored one goal and was involved in three more during United’s 3-1 win away to Hull. The much needed victory moved United to within two points of leaders Chelsea who had drawn the previous day against Birmingham
Rooney pounced on the stroke of half-time with a close range finish after a great cross on the wing from Darren Fletcher to claim his 14th goal of the season and sixth in as many games.

Fletcher consolidated United’s dominance over their opposition into a wonder-strike when he controlled a header down by Valencia into a wonderfully aimed hip-high shot straight into the top left-hand corner of the goal. Everton’s goalkeeper Tim Howard didn’t stand a chance.
