Manchester United vs. Rangers

Wish Park was in the middle, but on this display probably deserves to be taken off as opposed to one of out CM's.
 
Honestly why on earth do we ever play Park in games like this. He's the most pointless player to play when your looking for a goal against a team that will park the bus.
Performance has been shocking but can't expect anything else when we make so many changes.
We're going to be awful when Scholes retires. We're useless without him :(

Hang on didn't PARK SCORE AGAINST GREECE?
 
Brothers and sisters are natural enemies. Like Englishmen and Scots! Or Welshmen and Scots! Or Japanese and Scots! Or Scots and other Scots! Damn Scots! They ruined Scotland!
 
I know I'm not saying anything new here...but, How did Fergie think a midfield of

Valencia - Gibson - Fletcher - Park,

was the right option against a team that would simply sit around its own third?

I understand Liverpool coming up, and resting some of the oldies, and not so oldies, all the while giving some of the youngsters a go...but that midfield is hopeless.
 
Barcelona 3-1 Panathinaikos HT
Benfica 1-0 Hapoel Tel-Aviv HT
Bursaspor 0-2 Valencia HT
FC Copenhagen 0-0 Rubin Kazan HT
FC Twente 2-2 Inter Milan HT
Lyon 1-0 Schalke 04 HT
Man Utd 0-0 Rangers HT
Werder Bremen 1-2 Tottenham HT
 
Rangers have parked the bus, so can't be that hard on our lads.

We'll score somehow...

They will lose concentration in the second half.
 
Really impressed by Smalling and Fabio so far tonight, both look comfortable on the ball and Fabio's crosses have been awesome. We need to step up our attack.
 
What a fecking dreadful game. It has the ominous tang of 0-0 about it.

Although I still think you'll snatch one. Gibson.
 
Theres just no creativity in the team and thats the primary requirement when faced with a 11 man defence. surely the way Rangers are playing isnt a surprise? surely we expected this yet bizarrely we still leave out every major creative talent we have for a midfield of runners and Gibson.
 
Stop being so negative, we'll score and once we do... we will score two more.

With patience comes reward
 
Wow, I've come away from that first half a little disappointed but hopeful of a good second half, and yet find that this thread is full of anger and bitterness. I suppose I shouldn't expect anymore from a matchday thread on RedCafe!
 
Oh just realized no Nani, Berba, Scholes on the bench. Brilliant. More of this shite to continue in the 2nd half then.

I honestly don't understand the need to rest so many players so early into the season.

Will be glad if we win by any score.
 
Problem?? I asked a question which you obviouly couldn't answer...

Next time instead of busting your load over your keyboard, just don't reply!!

Nob

fans don't switch over to watch other teams when their team is playing...prick

Unless you don't support united?
 
why is nani and berba left out of the squad, the game is crying out for them to inspire our team.
 
Valencia's honestly doing himself no favors. 3rd poor performance in a row from him. If this continues Nani's going to get that right wing role for good.
