Valencia really showing his skillset there as he drops a shoulder and feints past one before using a step over to get past the next and whip a good cross in.
Said no one ever.

Nani, Mata, Kagawa, Welbeck, Adnan all capable of playing on the wing but injured/unavailable for some reason.. just our luck Valencia + Young are the two fit and available ones out of that bunch
hey, I'm not going to defend Valencia! But at least Young has shown some improvement and shouldn't automatically be said to be shit when he actually has a decent game.
Valencia is just sad at this stage
Have we had a shot yet?
It's almost criminal to have Rooney and RVP upfront but then set up like this as show such little quality in deliver.
Moyes must ecstatic with our display so far
any footballer who dribbles through the middle of the pitch is guaranteed to make Cleverly look silly.
Smalling to blame not Valencia
We have spend around 180m on transfers in the last 3 years. I am sure that Milan haven't done it in the last 10 years together. Basically the only similarity between us and Milan is that we both were great times who plays on red shirts and now we both are shit. For completely different reasons though.
Does Valencia's cross count?
Our defence is piss easy to run at
wtf is Valencia doing ?
Valencia's crossing is none league stuff at the moment, why do we insist on playing him wide? if it's for his defensive work then put fecking evans in there he'd still give you a better cross.
As do most watching them lately....
Moyes so boring. Learns nothing. Sets up team in same way as always, goes to wings. WHy not play kagawa...we dont need to play both valencia and young.
Sticks to a plan that has not been working.

Our defence and midfield shit themselves whenever any player runs with the ball. Being an opposition manager must be easy. Just ask them to directly run with the ball.
I am starting to think that Gibson was better than Clev at the same age.
In a couple of weeks we have to play City and Liverpool in this form. Just think about that for a second.
Say what ? How's Smalling stopping Valencia from crossing the ball somewhat decent and not in a complete shite manner?
Christ this is hard viewing! 1st goal wins!
Looks like Carrick is playing in a 1 man midfield again. Clev...are you even a footballer?
Our passing has been poor so far.
Maradonna like run from Campbell
Nope. But it's alright as long as we go to byline and make a lot of crosses.
It was such a smart decision to play our strongest line up against Palace and now have to rest 2 of the best performers that day for Cleverley and Valencia.
We'll have to keep suffering Smalling there unless we can get a proper right back who doesn't get injured most of the time.
Why did we sell Obertan? Id rather have him than Valencia.
Wtf is cleverley doing. Keeps pointing everywhere without wanting the ball.
I cannot decide if we play better football than Bayern or not.
Olympiakos are giving us too much respect fortunately
Young probably been our best player so far, not the first time this season it's been a decent performance from him. He still fails to inspire but been better than Valencia - tonight and all season.
League is our bread and butter.
Yawn.....
This has to be Moyes' fault... How can he keep picking Rio, Cleverley and Valencia... He may have inherited these players but he is picking them on reputation now.
It's typical of us all season. Just aimlessly passing the ball around, everyone waiting for someone else to do something. Very little to no invention of spark. Just so bleuh! Almost paint-by-numbers. Rooney and RVP again showing as much chemistry as a ransacked science lab.
Lots of possession but no end product.
Would be really interesting to hear what exactly Moyes was thinking playing Mr Touchline as a tucked in winger while having Kagawa on the bench.
I'm so tired of David Moyes.
I'm so tired of David Moyes.
This is a snooze fest
This is dire football it really is. Is there nobody seated close to moyes to give him a bollocking and let him know how stupid and obvious his mistakes are? Doubt he'd listen, with him being a stubborn Scotsman thinking his long ball tactics is the way forward.
still not good enough for a top united side...but in this side..fair enough...
