Half time!
Fantastic from us to come up on top despite them playing very well at times, but if this half taught us anything it's that if you stop Silva, you stop City.

feck. half time is coming at the wrong time. 
Good half.
Get that scumbag Rooney off for Berbatov.
Not at the level IMO. Nani is very good though when on form but Ronaldo was in another stratosphere.
HT comes at a good time for City, we've been massively on top since the goal, hope we keep it up.
Nani - fecking sensational, he's peerless.

He offers nothing attacking wise in the team

Silva v/s Nani. Advantage Nani.

Good first 5 then a rubbish 30 mins and then we exploded in the last 10 mins could of had a couple more.
Nani head and shoulders better than everybody else

Well you can bet City will change their tactics. Only question is should we match them?
HT: Nani has been fecking orgasmic !
Get Berba on please Fergie.

It's not crazy talking. He reminds quite some bit with that long leg move as he drift past defenders. It's just the physical bit that's missing and of course he need to get more consitant.
The first 33 odd mins we were mediocre but after that we've been just brilliant. Giggs and United as a whole really picked up after that and the goal especially.
Lets hope we can add another soon!

the only scumbag around here is you.
how dare you call a United player that.
feck off go support Liverpool.
This is exactly why we are playing with a lone striker. Try to dominate the midfield and hit them on the break.
Smalling really is a quality player, so much better than Evans
Havent been on here during the half. I assume everyone is in agreement that at the back we have been fantastic. I really hope there hasnt been a load of shite about O'Shea because he has been outstanding
We need to play with the tempo of the last 10 minutes because we swamped all over them.
I think we'll have to defend well in the second half, but feels good at half time.
feck off you scumbag.
He really is a joy to watch when he's on his game, defenders can't touch him
I'll certainly take that. Excellent pass by Giggs and first touch by Nani. Haven't seen much of Rooney, but he's not getting the ball much of the time. Overall a well played half.
Half time
City started very well and were bossing the game for the first 20 minutes. Silva should have scored.
Since then we have slowly got into the game and looked abit better. Since the goal we have looked more confident and have played alot better. This is a game on thin margins.
City are not an easy side to get a goal against and now they have to come out and play abit more so this should suit us.

nothing better than a hottie in a United shirt!
Think I might get that Giggs Fitness DVD.
Anderson doesn't look fit FFS !
take out Fletcher and put Chica in the second half, Shity will try to score means more chances
Smalling has been excellent uptil now (as usual). Really heartening to see.
Didnt want the half to end there...
Giggs Fitness
Good stuff we played near the end of the half. High pressure can trump midfield quality.
HT:Better half than i thought it would be and the goal was a huge bonus.Momentum with us at the moment, hope we kill them off.
Nani = third best player in the world. Hope this helps.
City playing well to be fair, guess we need a second to seal it. They look dangerous with pretty much every attack

Nani is amazing...
In Smalling I think we have found a United superstar, Ferdy can retire in the knowledge that his position is in good hands.

Great end to a largely frustrating half.
Anderson is missing and looks totally out of place.

We finished that half on top, lets hope we continue to keep at them now for the 2nd half, our defence is doing a great job keeping Tevez quite too, i hardly noticed him in the 1st half at all, fair play to them.
Such an important goal. The Most Expensive Bus in the World© now has to venture out and we can exploit the gaps.
I don't want to jinx anything but Smalling has done very, very well and Tevez has been shit. I wouldn't mind seeing Berbatov on for Anderson, but then I wouldn't mind seeing u s continue like the second half ended.
