Boca Juniors vs Manchester United

What the hell is that band Rooney and Giggs are wearing around their torso?
 
One question (I missed the game)

Valencia is a an absolute machine.

But what was his first touch/control like? And his short passing?

Or was he just a knock it forward and cross/shot?
 
He he, Rooney's acceptance speech for his man of the match award "it was one of the worst matches I've ever played"
 
extremely dull second half performance. But boca didn't really test us much. and let's never give a back pass to PIG. decent shot stopper. but man i kept expecting him to miss one of those kicks. don't want none o ***
 
WTF are our players wearing strapped around their guts?

It looked fine to me. It was all very direct and no messing about. He certainly has some raw pace on him as well.

I think if played down the left, he'll really enjoy cutting in as Ronaldo used to do.

Early days though, but the signs are good in his first game.
 
rooney, man of the match !!!


he said it was the worst game he played and the award was confusing

That is what happens when you let computers determine MOTM.
He won on so many categories, fastest sprint, most distance cover, attacking and defending runs :lol: number of touches on the ball. WTF?
 
Well here in Greece at half time, they were saying how brilliant Rooney had played and named him player of the first half, so maybe we are a little hard on him. Anyway, a good workout for him and the team. Owen with a goal or two tomorrow!!!!

People seemingly getting waaaay too heated about a pre season game.

Not a surprise that we faltered in the second period with all the travelling.

Can someone give me a summary:

-Brown's injury?
-How did the Carrick-Ando partnership look - discounting Ando's wondergoal?
-Valencia: first impressions?
-Wayne - looking lively?

Shows stats are bollocks.

It's also one in the nads for Tevez fans who try and argue that running around like a blue arse fly qualifies as having real quality.
