such ugly fans
Please what? The conditions are terrible. We're up against a Rugby side who's only tactic is to run around like nutters. We're doing pretty damn well all things considered.
I swear some people think that FIFA is actually an accurate representation of a game of football...
Why are we hoofing it???? Keep the fecking ball.
The Arab commentators refer to Vida as "The Beast" 
Stoke City and their fans make a North Korean nuke seem like a good idea.
Vidic playing like a Stoke player! (in a good way!)
Surprised Stoke aren't just launching the ball forwards. The wind seems to be giving the ball an extra yard or two of flight. It could catch out any defender. The conditions look very uncomfortable, especially combining with the pitch that looks very slick and slippery
Possibly on first viewing I'd agree, but replay shows a clear foulsome random fan
I just give my opinion, my first though was it was a soft pen.
I'd think so, yeah.
Otherwise you'll end up getting a whole ton of "slips" in the box
Vidic's one was outside box though, right?
Yeah - let's have more reason for love-ins. There haven't been enough lately.
and I posted that having only seen it once, my first thought was the he just fell over.
Regardless of whether he meant it or not, it would be classed as a foul, so yeah, you can give a penalty away without intent.
To me, it looked like the contact was outside the box though...
some random fan
I just give my opinion, my first though was it was a soft pen.
When I said random United fan I just meant like.....anyone.
Must be pissing the Stoke fans off. Not a single long pass in minutes
lovely Rio, fat Adam got schooledCalm little flick over the strikers head and then bring it down and lay off by Rio
I'd think so, yeah.

Vidic's one was outside box though, right?
yeah, you are probably right, but it was so obvious that vidic fell that a penalty would have seem harsh
Please score at the end of this move. Nice football.
Micheal Owen to come on.
This has been a decent performance. Even though stoke are on the slide it was always going to be this type of game. And we have shown a few patches of nice play.
As always very harsh posters in the match day thread.

What a porn-ish pass by Kagawa there
We're playing shite, no need to always look for excuses. We haven't had a half-decent performance since the Madrid game and we weren't exactly spectacular before that either.
Once more than England, you're champion's twice!
Can we just score from a nice free flowing football move please?
Owen coming on
yeah I know, just in one of those moods, no offence was meant.
Kagawa is too much of a team player, fecking shoot it already
An actual footballer coming on for Stoke
Rooney has been great in the CM role today.
Owen....looks like he just woke up.
Good to see Michael getting a warm reception.
Is it just me or is it weird to see Rene Meulensteen patrolling the touchline, does he do it often?
Chicha had a decent game. Welbeck replaces him.
They won't know what to do with him.
Nice reception for Owen.
I wish to continue to feel warm towards Owen by him making no contribution whatsover today! Danny for Chica.
