Trying to figure out whose been worse. Buttner or Rafael?
 
I get nervous whenever Diame has the ball in the box because Büttner is defending him. Then Fellaini comes over and it's worse...
 
Did Martin Tyler just ask if McCartney could get the drop of Rafael? What is this, The Wire?
 
A lot of results went for West Ham today [too early to be "on the beach"?], i wonder if that has affected their mentality going into the game because they've been pretty poor.
 
Darren Fletcher giving a lesson in aggressive pressing.
 
He's a persistant fouler that acts as though he doesn't have a booking to his name. I'd sub him because he can't be trusted.

I agree Rafael can be rash at times, but only rash. He doesn't go out to maim. The handball against pool was psychotic but in his defense Moyes should never have played a man who got only three hours of sleep when his wife gave birth to their first baby. And how long ago was that second yellow card when grabbed Ribery...three or four seasons ago?
 
Carroll actually runs like a horse. When he sprints I hear 'clip-clop clip-clop' in my head.
 
We really need to get some mobility in our central midfield. What purpose have Fellaini and fletcher served so far? They don't pick out good passes, they don't make runs to make space for the front players. They leave too much for the attacking 4 to do IMO.
 
This front line looks good on the break, helps that mata and kagawa can both pass the ball.
 
I am liking our counters. We need to put a bit more pressure on them higher up the pitch, only Fletcher has been doing that.
 
We need to play Mata and Kagawa together more. They seem like they understand each other.
