BAH, sorry, brainfart...
Where does he say this? I was told that one of the stipulations of the tour was that the stars would be required to be in attendance with a minimum play time on the pitch...
But then I got no real facts on that either... |

| quote: | Manchester United in America
Despite the interesting quotes above, the real purpose of the press conference was to promote Manchester United’s upcoming summer tour. In the summer of 1958 Manchester United toured the United States, arriving by boat and staying for six weeks, playing a total of twelve matches. This summer will be a little less strenuous on the Red Devils.
The tour is scheduled to start with a training camp in Chicago followed by games on July 16 against Celtic FC in Toronto, on July 21 against the Philadelphia Union, on July 25 against the Kansas City Wizards, and on July 28 against the MLS All-Star Team in Houston.
Following a World Cup many of Manchester United’s players will require additional rest before they return to preseason, but Sir Alex Ferguson specifically named Paul Scholes, Gary Neville, Ryan Giggs, Darren Fletcher, Edwin van der Sar, and Dimitar Berbatov as part of the squad which will flaunt its skills Stateside.
Additionally, fans should also expect first teamers Rafael, John O’Shea, Wes Brown, Johnny Evans, Antonio Valencia, Darren Gibson, Michael Owen, and Frederico Macheda as they are all not involved in the World Cup this summer. Ferguson also stated that Mexican Chico Hernandez will be called back early despite his inclusion in Mexico’s World Cup squad. He will join the team in Philadelphia to aid his integration into the squad. |
