Rejuvented Nani makes his case
Date published: 19 February 2013
NANI has given Sir Alex Ferguson food for thought after firing Manchester United to the latest victory in their treble quest.
The Portugal winger looks set to leave Old Trafford in the summer. But he turned on the style to help down Reading in the FA Cup last night with a goal and an assist, earning United a 2–1 win and a quarter–final showdown with Chelsea or Middlesbrough.
The winger, on as a sub for the injured Phil Jones, in the process gave Ferguson another selection option for the duel with Real Madrid on March 5.
"He's got great talent, we know that," said Ferguson. "I had a feeling he would win the game for us. You could see he was right on form the moment he came on.
"He had two great strikes immediately and was a threat to them the whole night. If he keeps that form it makes my job more difficult."
