Nani looks knackered
He's the only one who makes forward passes in midfield, so that's not a surprise...
Nani end ball is shit, Carrick is too slow, Park is off, Rooney first touch and passing are letting him down, Berba has no service, Valencia is feisty, Rio is off, Jones as well... All in all Newcastle are outplaying us...
He's been creating no more than Nani has and Nani can keep the ball at least.
I like Park but we need more of a threat on the left, only got Lingard on the bench, could shift Giggs out wide and bring on Ando. Need more pace going forward.
Rooney is playing like he's been out for 6 months. Got the first touch of a pub player.
I'd give Wayne the hook. Terrible performance.
Really been impressed by Tiote on the ball. And of course Ba's work up front has been excellent.
But he had the shot
Ba looks very sharp and has done so all this season. Wonder how long they can keep him?
My word pardew looks a twat most of the time
Swear he got his shot off before Giggs came in, Webb's had a good game so far though.
Looks like they might have over-trained him for this one.
Ba a handful
Very frustrating to watch this
What?
At least he is trying to create something.
there are far players worse today like Rooney ,Berbatov, Nani or even Park
Rooneys playing like he's still on the booze
The obligatory 5 mins to take a free kick...
Your right, sorry, but ba just scored while i was typing that.
Its not the same situation...just a similar thing.
2 players tangling in the box can go either way. Depends on what mood the referee is in.
Nani is having a mare at the moment. Can't single out something positive from him...
I think he's been creating more than our other midfielders. There was that tricky pass that nearly got to Berbatov at the start, while he's slotted through one or two other decent balls as well. For me, if we're going to cut through the Newcastle defence, we need to keep on Giggs for the time being.
Newcastle look better balanced than us and are wanting it more.
He's got dodgy knees.
We need to get our foot on the ball a bit more and slow it down. Our attacking is far too rushed - we keep giving the ball away.
If only.
He has to do his best to derail us every season with his bollocks.
Dropped at the weekend and an awful response tonight.
No one is playing well. Man Utd are second best at everything in the first half. Very poor.
Let's hope that SAF can wake them up in second half
Having to double up for Valencia getting out of position doesn't help.
It was hardly a tangling, unless your definition of tangling is a player sticking a leg out to take down a player, and catching him in the process.
I feel our play has become a bit predictable again recently much like our slump around the second Basle game.
Slow build up, pass wide, hopeful cross..

Carrick and Valencia 
Rooney's hungover, clearly
just been to pick my wife up from work and had talksport on , was the goal that good?
You would of though Ba had scored the best goal ever scored.
I cant put into words how much I hate Collymore

We've been poor as an attacking unit this half. Had a decent 10 minute spell but other than that it's just been a lot of hit and miss football. Lot of speculative passes and not enough percentage football. Basically, we've had no control of this game. Our football has been the kind where we need a break going our way rather than being that which eventually will reap rewards. Hopefully we find much more control and precision to our game in the second because it doesnt' look like Newcastle are going to roll over.
This looks utterly brainless at the moment. They'll get a bollocking at half time.
Why is when they attack they have acres of space to go into?
Another forward pass that was 'hopeful' at best.
Besides Berba's deflected header against the post have we actually had a shot on goal?
Is Rooney even playing ? He's been atrocious so far.I'm really tired of his up and down form.Such a frustrating player
but we dont need any transfers.
