Manchester United vs. Manchester City

HT- Could be worse i suppose. We could be better and I expect us to tighten up in midfield.
 
Did anyone other than Jones have a good half there? I don't think so.
 
Should Milner not be booked there?

He's been told to piss off 3 times, and he's still having a go.
 
I don't know what I expected - well, apart from the fact that the City players would largely act like twats, which they now are - that was a scrappy old half of football. My goodness it went quick though.
 
Not too bad but we are playing to deep and relying on the counter attack, id like to see us get on the ball and attack.
 
Scarf-face going even more nuts.
 
Look at all those cnuts complaining to Mike dean. cnuts.
 
What has Kagawa done to warrant missing both the Chelsea match and tonight's? He'd be better than what is out there whether on the wing or centrally.
 
Rooney and Rafael has had fecking shockers. Rooney looks likely to be red carded.
 
We just conceded the midfield. It's fecking annoying. Can't we set up the way we did vs madrid at home?
 
Did anyone other than Jones have a good half there? I don't think so.

Carrick
Rooney
RVP was decent
Welbeck was alright
Rafael's growing into the game
 
Sloppy passing tonight, almost half arsed which is quite unbelievable in a game like this.
 
Rooney and Rafael has had fecking shockers. Rooney looks likely to be red carded.

Giggs and Welbeck were a bit crap too. Young was ok, RvP was isolated.
 
I don't know why so many people complained about Dean this half. I mean yeah he missed some calls both ways, but he hasn't been biased towards any team, IMO he did a good job.

I would however be unhappy if he blew the whistle if we were in City's position.
 
Did anyone other than Jones have a good half there? I don't think so.

Carrick did well enough for me, considering he's playing midfield on his own - again. Some good moments by Van Persie, but he made a mess of one attack by ignoring two passing options in Rooney and Young. The rest is pretty meh.
 
Not too bad but we are playing to deep and relying on the counter attack, id like to see us get on the ball and attack.

When we do , Giggs or someone will just try some hopeless Hollywood ball and our attack breaks down. We've been decent on the counter but we really need to bring Cleverley in just to help us retain the ball.
 
Rafael seems to have messed up almost every forward pass he's attempted.
 
Not too bad but we are playing to deep and replying on the counter attack, id like to see us get on the ball and attack.

At times, it looked like a bunch of primary school kids playing football.

Rafael has been pish in possession and going forward. Welbeck has been good, though he had a brainfart when did decided not to play Rooney in when we were through.
 
Good half of football. End to end to start with, City then dominated but we ended the half reasonably comfortably. Atmosphere has been great.

Must do better in possession. Take Giggs off and bring on Cleverley or Kagawa.
