I hate feeling like a scouser. I hope LVG can turn this around

As long as Lambert is involved.
Why? Because Giggs cant motivate players who have absolutely nothing to play for in the final 4 games?
Not excusing all of our behavior today, but how the feck can a ref lose control over a end of season dead rubber match? There's nothing riding on this. Mike Dean is a shocking referee.
this season made me find out what a masochist i am!
Dean has been awful today, in every way.
We on the other hand need a couple of changes at half

Shaw vs Januzaj is the only real highlight of the game for us thus far.
Pretty sure most were saying we needed an experienced, proven manager and a few new signings. Agenda much?
Yep. Replacing Moyes with a top class manager will be a step in the right direction but the impact will be fairly small unless we get rid of a lot of the dross in the squad and bring in some proper players.
How's Kagawa playing out of position?
It is just a terrible formation with the personnel used. Kagawa and Fletcher have had little over 30 touches between them. Kagawa has a 70% pass completion rate. It is like we are playing with 10 men or something. Horrible game so far.
He's on the pitch?
The lack of runs and movement is absolutely painful to watch. LvG is going to get them bollocks out within a day.
True! Also, I think those few players have too much influence in the dressing room. Its addition by subtraction really.
Just like when we got rid of Keano, RVN, Beckham etc. It allowed the younger players to flourish and the rest is history.
Watching Cities stream directly next to ours is slightly depressing I have to say. The contrast between the way they dominate the game and the way we stumble across the pitch is really shocking.
Not surprising. We've a very important match for youngsters three days from now.
Also Giggsy
You don't say?
If Lawrence can get a sub appearance and play on Wednesday then so can two other youngsters, why not take the chance to give them time? Spurs are winning we're out of Europe.
If Lawrence isn't starting on Wednesday then why not start him today?
can we not just forfit the rest of the game and end this season now.
No, actually most of the Moyes-out brigade kept repeating that we've ended 11 points off last season and this squad is all champions and that's Moyes that's single-handedly destroying our club, so no. 'Squad is fine, would be competing for title', etc.
terrible. cant control or retain the ball.
Back to our usual terrible away from home best
We have had 30% of the possession, and less than half the number of passes. Of Southampton.
If you're asking how he is playing, he's been shite. If you're asking how is that out of position... Well he's clearly not made for a midfield duo.
That touch and cross from Shaw, lovely.
He must be playing today thinking 'I can do better than United'.

We are absolute dogshit. The lack of movement at times is embarrassing.
kagawa is wank today
not that impressed with the City game to be honest
Moyes will go around saying, "Hey I got a higher winning percentage than Giggs!"
Need the hairdryer!
Not very well
Shinji shocking so far.
Dean has been so shit we'll probably sign him for £35m to play centre mid in the summer.
I was thinking the same earlier. We're so far behind them its sad.
Well of course you're one of the "squad is fine" crowd.
I just hope to feck that LVG has more sense. 4 or 5 new first team starters needed.
Shaw making a mug of Januzaj.
Januzaj is fronted by two Southampton players...no one moves inside to give him an option.
Keep in mind there is nothing to play for from this game. Yes, we'd love to see scintillating footy but it was never going to happen. Avoiding injury is at the top of everyone's mind.
Shaw is winning against Januzaj
I really wish we'd stop using Smalling at fullback. So easy for the other team to just double up on our wingers knowing that Smalling provides no support.
And has been bar a handful of games since the day he signed.
Shaw has completely nullified Januzaj
Dire half...let it be over!
