Jan. 4 – Manchester United 1-2 Swansea:
Michael Laudrup’s side knock Moyes’ team out of the FA Cup, courtesy of
Wilfried Bony’s last-minute goal, as Swansea, who first visited Old Trafford in
1931, finally record their first win there. It is only the second time since
1984 that United go out of the FA Cup in the third round.
Jan. 7 – Sunderland 2-1 Manchester
United: United, who were also beaten by Tottenham on New Year’s Day,
lose three successive games for the first time since 2001.
Jan. 24 – Juan Mata joins from Chelsea for 37.1
million pounds. It breaks United’s transfer record, set when Dimitar Berbatov
came from Tottenham in 2008 for 30.75 million pounds. Together with the summer
signing of Marouane Fellaini for 27.5 million pounds, it takes United’s
spending for the season to 64.6 million pounds – another club record.
Feb. 1 – Stoke City 2-1 Manchester United:
Stoke, who had only taken one point from 11 previous Premier League games
against United, defeat them for the first time in the league since 1984. It
means United have made their worst start to a season, over 24 league games, in
the Premier League era.
Feb. 21 – Wayne Rooney signs a five-and-a-half
year deal which, at 300,000 pounds per week, makes him the best paid player in
United’s history. As it is worth around 85 million pounds by the time it
expires in 2019, it is the biggest contract ever awarded by an English club.
Feb. 25 – Olympiakos 2-0 Manchester United:
Olympiacos become the first Greek side ever to beat United in European
competition.
