new deal for Fletcher

MANCHESTER UNITED midfielder Darren Fletcher is in line for a whopping £1million-a-year pay hike on the back of his impressive form.

Old Trafford chiefs are ready to sit down with the 25-year-old early in the New Year to discuss a further two-year extension to the deal he signed just 12 months ago.

Fletcher is contracted to remain with United until 2012, but the club are set to financially reward his elevated status in the current squad.

The Scot - who started against Macedonia in the World Cup Group Nine qualifier at Hampden Park yesterday - has played in all but nine minutes of United's Premier League campaign so far.

He currently earns around £50,000 a week and can expect to see that rise to nearer £70,000 a week.

But club officials will be keen to avoid a repeat of the last time Fletcher's deal was up for renewal, when he was left in the dark going into the final few months of his contract.

United, like their Big Four rivals, are currently reviewing and monitoring contracts across the board to make sure they retain top talent.

Crerand: Fletch is first choice


It's easy to jump on the bandwagon and praise Darren Fletcher's performances, but Paddy Crerand believes his fellow countryman has been turning in outstanding displays for years now, and he considers the Scotland skipper to be United's first-choice central midfielder.

"For me, he is an automatic pick," Paddy said on his phone-in show on MUTV on Monday. "For the big games I think the manager would pick Fletcher, he'd be first on the team sheet.

"Darren has made the point that he wants to be the number one choice in midfield. And he's playing well enough to be number one. I almost don't need to make the point for him, he's making a strong enough case himself.

"He was outstanding against Wigan and outstanding against Arsenal. And against Tottenham and Manchester City, you want him in the midfield."

Fletcher has been thrust into the spotlight, particularly this season, but Crerand rejects the notion that he is United's most improved player. "He's been playing like that for
quite a few years now," he added. "I think the fans are starting to appreciate him, that's the only difference.

"For a long time Darren was a scapegoat. When he came through he played alongside Roy Keane and Paul Scholes and there aren't many players in English football, never mind for United, who've been as good as those two. That's the standard that was set, but Darren's got better and better.

"He's a tremendous passer and doesn't get the credit for that sometimes. All you hear is that he gets in at people. But he is enthusiastic and whole-hearted, and fans love that."

Darren Fletcher's now the mean man! Midfielder is proving Roy Keane wrong
By IAN LADYMAN
Last updated at 11:33 PM on 11th September 2009

Of all the questions he has been asked already this season, there is one that Sir Alex Ferguson will not answer. Why did you lose the Champions League final last May?

However, it is not difficult to work it out for ourselves with the benefit of hindsight.
Poor defending. The anonymity of Cristiano Ronaldo and the Brazilian Anderson. And the absence of Darren Fletcher.

‘If they ever needed Fletcher it was in the Champions League final against Barcelona,’ former Scotland and Liverpool midfielder Graeme Souness told Sportsmail this week.

‘On the night, Anderson wasn’t up to the task of stopping their footballers from playing. Fletcher would have done that and given his defenders protection and provided the platform for the front players. He would have made the difference.’

Who would have thought it? Darren Fletcher the difference between winning and losing the greatest club prize on earth. The same Darren Fletcher who was ridiculed by supporters — they used to call him ‘Fergie’s son’ — and dismissed by his former captain and teammate Roy Keane.

‘I can’t understand why people in Scotland rave about Darren Fletcher,’ Keane is thought to have said in the infamous MUTV rant that was never aired back in 2005.

Perhaps he can now. Fletcher, after all, is Scotland’s captain and a midfielder referred to as a big-game player by his manager. Less than two weeks ago one tabloid newspaper even described him as the ‘new Roy Keane’ in the wake of Manchester United’s unlikely Barclays Premier League victory over Arsenal.


Head to head: Fletcher (right) and Robin van Persie

It has, it must be said, been a remarkable transformation and pictures of him in midweek squaring up to Arsenal’s Robin van Persie as Scotland lost at home to Holland perhaps indicate how a callow boy has become a man.

‘For a while I have wanted Darren to take hold of games and now he does that for me,’ said Ferguson.

‘I thought he was fantastic against Arsenal. I said right after the game that, for me, he was the star man. Wayne Rooney, who got the man-of-the-match award, said it should have gone to Fletcher and we all agreed.’

It is six-and-a-half years since Fletcher made his debut for United in a 1-1 Champions League draw against Basel. He is now 218 appearances into his professional career and it has not always been a straightforward path.

Fletcher has always had the ability to pass well; to see and understand angles. But he was too often unable to find the pace of games and apply himself physically, which only serves to make his recent reincarnation as a hard man all the more fascinating.

Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger accused the 25-year-old of dirty play at Old Trafford a fortnight ago, something that Fletcher would deny but perhaps not worry about too much. Such things certainly never bothered Keane, a player who actually did much to shepherd his younger colleague through difficult early times at Old Trafford.

‘I know Arsene Wenger was critical of United’s aggressive tactics the other week but British football isn’t just about playing pretty passing styles,’ added Souness, a man whose autobiography was aptly entitled No Half Measures.

‘You have to win the battles on the pitch first. It’s what we all love to see in the British game and please may it continue. The art of tackling, being strong and then using the ball wisely.

‘Fletcher can do all this. I’m not saying he’s just a destructive force, he has other assets, too. When I first saw him I thought he would be just an up-and-down player, but he has matured and is full of confidence.

'He’s been well-schooled, tackle hardened and the experience he has gained is shining through now. I’m a big fan. He is the modern midfielder. Tall, great athleticism and traditional qualities. Last year he was United’s most effective performer.

'For instance, United like to combat Arsenal with aggression and in the Champions League semi-final he was the instigator. He was the man that set the tempo and raised his team’s performance.

‘I believe he will be, arguably, United’s most important player for the next seven years.’

Souness’s words constitute high praise and it is something Fletcher — a patriot — will appreciate. Fletcher has long since been one of United’s more approachable players. Rather than revel in the media blanket that United throw over their squad, he actually approached a club PR person and asked why it was.

Married now with twin boys, Fletcher grew up on a council estate outside Edinburgh. Coming from a family of agricultural workers, he is tee-total and, in some ways, an unlikely Scotland captain.

Scotland assistant manager Terry Butcher said: ‘You would be proud to have Darren as your son. He’s a lovely, honest boy. He is in love with football and, to me, a bit of a throwback.
'He is quite simply a very good footballer.’

United manager Ferguson has not enjoyed the best of luck with central midfielders in recent years. Names such as Miller, Djemba-Djemba and Kleberson still make him cringe.
Saturday afternoon at White Hart Lane, though, Fletcher will stand toe to toe with Tottenham’s own enforcer Wilson Palacios.



He is, in his own way, a modern United success story.
