Malaysia X1 v Manchester United

He's had a decent game, much better in the middle.

From what I saw (last 30 minutes) Gibson did very well. Creative and efficient with his passing, he's a bulky bastard too, shouldn't have the issues that Fletcher did when breaking through of being muscled out. Solid display i'd say.

Tosic was busy but not much to shout about. Nani did well but same issue as normal, overcomplicates everything and normally thats where our attack breaks down. When he did produce he was dangerous.

Macheda, showed glimpses but he's very raw. Needs to use his bulky frame and protect the ball better.

Owen... feck me is it odd seeing him play for us, but thats why we gambled on him. To score goals like that.
 
Our final ball has been lacking really, would be interesting to have Valencia in the team to see what he has.

Bit early in the season to start this again but our final ball being lacking isnt really the fault of our right back surely?

Agree on Valencia though. Dying to see what he can do surrounded by quality players, like O Shea ;)

I agree. I love watching Macheda, he reminds me of Bambi on ice!!! Yeah very raw.
 
The pitch was pretty horrible, with the ball bobbling all over the place which made it difficult. I thought Tosic was very positive and direct, Owen looked decent and really took his goal well. Gibson looked far better in the 2nd half in the centre, the pass to Giggs for the winner was exceptional.
 
Funny to see the number 7 shirt score with a different person wearing it, but also good to see.
 
Anybody got highlights, how was Berba? Controlling proceedings as usual? I can not believe I missed the game! ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

yeh berbs was orchestrating as best he could, it didnt help that scholes and o'shea couldn't pass for shit today while he was on, anderson didn't hep much either
 
Jesus we have some muppets ringing in MUTV. We should be signing that Yaya (sp?) apparently.

All in all, good workout for the lads.

Yeah I heard that!!! He was worried other clubs will see the match and beat us to his signature! :lol:
Then again perhaps we should slip Madrid a copy of it, that would teach them!!
 
It's amazing how unfit and shit at football players manage to get in such a short period of time.

I forgot how boring pre-season games were.

Only thing that concerned me was Anderson's comprehensive display of awfulness. Other than that was pretty much what you'd expect

He does have some nice tattoos though!! :D
 
Was that Gibson who gave the through ball for Owens goal? That was an awesome pass.
 
I thought Ando was better than Scholes. I wouldn't say it concerned me, but playing Gibson wide right was a bit shit, 4-4-2 needs 2 wingers.
 
Farmer from Oxford!! Bigging up how much of a supporter he is. Then admits he didnt know the score!

Didn't you hear that he's got cups and plates with the "Man Utd" logo on them? What more do you want?
