Manchester United vs Burnley

Valencia has been very lively and his crossing has been about as good as he's capable of. A good half for him. Nani has been a bit more dangerous in the final third but less involved. For some reason our players tend to think about passing the ball to him and then turn and go the other way.
 
I confirm what I said, Valencia thinks slowly and he is slow in the first 2-3 meters. He has a good cross, but in my opinion is pretty average at 360 °.

I hope he can do more in the 2nd half, he has always 30 meters of space ahead of him, he has to play with 1 touch, and he has not to wait 5 seconds to pass the ball every time.

Nani for example is much more talented, it's evident.
 
Carricks been woeful again.

Obviously you haven't been watching the game. His passing's been excellent, and he's been at the heart of all our attacks so far.

Scholes and Berbatov have been invisible.

The referee hasn't helped either, slowing the game down with far too many stoppages.
 
Once the lads find out Chelsea are winning 4-0, they'll come right out of the blocks in the second half.

We haven't been playing badly, like some of you doomsayers have rumbled on about. We just need that little bit of finesse upfront to follow everything up.

The goals will come i'm sure of that.
 
Nani & Valencia need to start varying their runs, they're just running up & down the touchline. Grow some balls & start beating people & getting shots/assists in.

Nani in particular obviously has the skill to beat people for fun - start doing it for fecks sake!
 
Hargreaves has been shit.
 
Carrick and Scholes look too slow and are getting overwhelmed in the middle.
Nani and Valencia are doing well.
Evans and Brown look like they just met.
Neville is getting forward well but he cannot get back in time.
Evra is up and down the field but he is leaving a lot of space behind him.
Berbatov is showing just enough class to get our hopes up does not look up for it.
Rooney positioning is just off but he seems willing.
VDS looks good.

Likely changes at some point in the 2nd half
Scholes off for Anderson
Neville off for Rafael
Berbatov off for Owen

On the contrary ive watched it all and many others on this thread have echoed what i just said......hes been very very poor...yet again....when you stop counting sideways and backward 5 yard passes and some form of orgasmic success and juicing over his pass succes rate youll see what many others are talking about.
 
Wished we had someone to head in a few of these crosses. Mate at the game said there were pockets of boos at half time.

Would rather see Diouf get a half.
 
anderson has been virtually stationary, worst game for united so far

:wenger:

Dear God. The loons are out in force today.
 
Lou Macari is a fecking wanker. Why's he keep having a go at Valencia when he's been by far the best player on the park? Twat.

This - I want to strangle Macari. Been bashing on Nani for no reason as well.

Hope we score early in the first half - can't handle the nerves.
