No he's right!
No subs until it was too late, where was the panache, the flair,commitment,tactical change.
Was there a game plan? Sure didn't look like it.
3rd time in a couple of weeks we've been outhought by an opposition coach

What a load of reactionary shite.
Didn't deserve to win. Performance was poor, the substitutions were ridiculous and made at stupid times.
10 points to win the title....

Poor performance but the subs annoyed the feck out of me. We should have brought on fresh legs when players looked tired around 65mins and to help control and create a bit more. Kagawa when there is 3mins left seemed pointless, he should have been on far earlier.
Will say the fans sounded fecking brilliant tonight.

We say that after every single match.
fecking awful result. We have some horribly tricky games to come, they have some relatively easy ones and we are faltering while they will be starting to believe.
Really thought we'd show a lot more guts today.

I just hate feeling like this towards SAF. He is stressing me out. So many games now where we really needed him to pick the right team and make the right changes and he just makes the most inexplicable decisions - it can't be about keeping players happy can it? What is it then? I just don't get it.
When the correct personnel are in it, it functions pretty well
Agreed.
That hurt way more than I thought it would. I feel like fecking shit.
We dont have enough quality.
Valencia is clueless and Giggs is a nightmare.

Dire performance. We've stunk up the place since the Madrid game.
Weird substitutions today from SAF tstl. Giggs in CM is Ok at best against lower level sides.

2 defeats in a row.
Seems the Madrid game completely ruined the course of our season.
12 points ahead, 7 games to go. Tricky games (Arsenal (A), Chelsea (H)) ahead - title race is far from over if you ask me.

We needed Vidic
He didn't. What Fergie did today is the equivalent of starting a game of FIFA deliberately using the wrong buttons.
midfield has always been the problem....
amazing that we are where we are.

You lied to us, marcos!
Marcos is not the pope then ?
A month ago I would have laughed at this. Am slightly concerned now. We've been off form for weeks.
what chances we mess this title up again?
Same. But what annoys me the most is that there were no changes before it was too late. Giggs was shit but kept him on, Young wasn't as effective as he could have been but kept him on. There was no urgency in the decisions from the bench it felt.
Have to agree. He is past it. That bit of showboating sums it up
We didn't even create a chance today.
Anyway, not a bad game, not great either. End the season even with them, we beat them at their ground, they beat us at ours.
I'm off out of here as you can see the muppets are already out in full force saying how we're shit, how we're an average side, how "OMGZ THIS TEAM SO SHIT COMPARED TO OUR OMMMMMMMMMGGGG VINTTTAGGGE 90'S SIDES!", how the PL is now utter shit and only level with the Algerian Third Division. Some of you are an embarrassment to our club, but hey, you already know that. Night lads.

SAF has been a legend but we need modern thinking if we are win big again eg. Champions League. Fergie's gone soft in his old age and is like a boxer suffering the effects of being knowcked out, he's gun shy!!
My issue is that it was so, so predictable. Okay first half, some nice football, and then just totally flat and slow for the second half.
It feels we need to either go an early goal behind or score 2 in the first half to actually have a decent second half performance. 0-0 or 1-0 just prompts a negative, flat, nervous display and we either cling on against poor teams or concede against good ones.
RvP's delivery for the goal was class but he was totally marked out of the game in the area and, yet, Tevez and then Aguero seemed to force us into all manner of last ditch blocks.
SAF needs to work out what he wants from the team because Young and RvP are not counter-attacking players but that's how he set up.

Ferguson just went stupid.
There wasn't even any need for Mancini to out think him.
We needed someone like Roy Keane x 3
My arse is ready for you gay stalker boy.
feck United, Game Of Thrones won't disappoint me.
we have nani on the bench - he is a better option than Valencia.
Giggs should never be starting.

Yeah, the substitution timing was a joke.
De gea should have saved that shot and why the heck is carrick so overrated? pulled off 1 good pass this season and lets not get started on RVP, flukiest player on the pitch.
Didn't deserve shite tonight. Our players have been out of sorts since Madrid. Fergie's inaction is getting very very frustrating. Gonna have a sick feeling in my stomach for the rest of the week.
What's the opinion on Milner's goal? Clear offside surely?
Not really that disappointed. We were awful in that second half, and deserved to lose. Blame lies primarily with Sir Alex, just plain stupid starting Giggs in midfield. How many shite performances does he have to put in that position until Sir Alex realizes that he can ONLY play on the wing these days.
How on earth did he last the full 90 as well. Ridiculous.

Just going down the same route. Then a few more episodes of 'The Wire' season 4 - both sufficiently traumatic to suit my mood.
