Smudger Deserves a Medal

Alan Smith hasn't played enough games this season to be eligible for a Premiership medal this season, but the club is asking for special consideration for Smith and Larsson, who both fall short of the required 10 appearances.

As it stands, the following players will be getting their medals on Sunday (yes, I've nothing better to do, so I countered the appearances) :

1. Wayne Rooney (34)
2. Christiano Ronaldo (33)
3. Rio Ferdinand (33)
4. Michael Carrick (32)
5. John O'Shea (31)
6. Edwin Van der Sar (31)
7. Paul Scholes (29)
8. Ryan Giggs (29)
9. Nemanja Vidic (25)
10. Darren Fletcher (23)
11. Patrice Evra (23)
12. Gabriel Heinze (21)
13. Wes Brown (21)
14. Louis Saha (24)
15. Gary Neville (24)
16. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (18)
17. Kieran Richardson (14)
18. Mikael Silvestre (14)
19. Park Ji Sung (14)

20. Tomasz Kuszczak (6)
21. Alan Smith (8)
22. Henrik Larsson (7)

Kuszczak probably would qualify being the stand-in keeper.
