We've played some pretty decent stuff in the last 15 mins. More of those please.
 
I have zero sympathy for Moyes. He moans about needing players and he went out a brought in a guy who is easily one of the worst central midfielders I've seen for Utd.....and he managed the guy previously. You can't forgive that.
 
Arsenal 1-0 down.

Comeback and win tonight and we are 8 points behind them with 7 games remaining. Surely not...
No, definitely not.

No because we will lose. But we should be sniffing blood for Arsenal.
 
He's doing more than most and at least trying. He's been a lot better than Welbeck, Mata, Carrick, Ferdinand, Rafael, Evra and Jones. Stop scapegoating him.
just rubbish! He should have been sent off but lucky to have a yellow instead (and then he even looked "oh what me?". Terrible attitude
 
This a complete feck up by the players. Anyone..I mean ANYONE who plays football will know that if you know your tactics going forward, you know your tactics defending! Why THE feck do we have three in midfield then?? It was a clear idea to crowd that space.

The tactics were spot on! Some of the players have been really really POOR.

List of Shit Players in the first 25 mins

CARRICK
FELLAINI
RAFAEL

When your two central midfielder have been throuhgly SHIT you can do anything about tactics. INFURIATING! What do you do when two of your CM"s forget to defend and pass?? There's really no explanation to this.
:lol:
 
Carrick cannot be our first choice midfielder come August.
 
Eh? What match have I been watching then? One terrible pass aside, I can't recall him giving it away at all. He's understandably nervous but has been neat in possession, linked well with Rafa. But hey, that's the deal with Tom at the moment. He can do no right.

Aye, he's playing well. As always, the amount of drivel posted in matchday threads is simply astonishing.
 
Sitting too deep for me. Inviting city on to us is suicide. I think MF needs to come off before he is sent off. We got better and were becoming a match for them but that first ten mins were horrendous. We are fortunate city aren't out of sight after that period.
We don't have the ability in CM to boss our way around them but we can get something on the break.
Next goal is critical. City get it and we are looking at 3 or 4 nil.
 
Some massive over reactions in here. They were all over us first ten minutes but we created chances after that and could've easily levelled with better finishing.

Yeah. Seems a lot of people made their minds up before kick-off.
 
It's like the Arsenal game all over again, same game plan, just better opposition.
 
I have zero sympathy for Moyes. He moans about needing players and he went out a brought in a guy who is easily one of the worst central midfielders I've seen for Utd.....and he managed the guy previously. You can't forgive that.
He brought his own men from Everton and bought A player costing an arm a leg without merits... Makes you think he's just a very selfish man.
 
I'm still trying to work out what Phil Jones was doing for that goal. Mental defending. Where did Dzeko come from?
 
When you get around to watching today's Everton highlights, watch how vastly superior Barkley is to Fellaini. Astonishing.
 
If there's anything of the Ferguson spirit left in this side, now is the time to show it.
 
Cleverley hasn't been awful but he's been Tom Cleverley, I don't know what the expectation on him was. If you wanted protection for Rafael play Valencia who's actually done Rafael's job a number of times, not someone who to my knowledge has never played there in is entire senior career
 
Cracking up at these American commercials. "If you or your loved ones have taken any of these following 9 pills, and died, please call us."
When you get around to watching today's Everton highlights, watch how cast superior Barkley is to Fellaini. Astonishing.

That goal he scored was class.
 
Is Rafael playing badly? I thought he was alright from whatever I could read from Guardian. Why 4 changes from the West Ham Game though?
West Ham game was Moyes resting players. In the big games, his back to his good old useless tactics.
 
I'm still trying to work out what Phil Jones was doing for that goal. Mental defending. Where did Dzeko come from?
He's been all over the place so far. Charging everywhere not realizing he's a center back today.
