Blackburn vs Manchester United

Berb for Evans, Fabio to LB, Valencia to RB, Berb & Cheech up front & Rooney everywhere - feckin come on :devil:
 
I was thinking that PIG's playing today so he qualifies for a medal.

Reserve goalkeepers always get a special dispensation medal, probably a farewell game for him as Sir Alex will have wanted Edwin's last game for United to be at Old Trafford.
 
I don't blame Pig that much, if there is a player available in space, we should look to pass to them than a keeper. Not every keeper is VDS. Too many fecking back passes to keepers in our play. Sometimes from positions of attacking and you see ball goes to Vidic and straight to PIG and you ask yourself, does not give us a greater chance of possession? He is going to just kick it anywhere anyway.

I'm sorry but what?

PIG has been absolutely dreadful, some schoolboy goalkeeping in this match.
 
Alex gambled in playing PIG. At the moment - it isn't working out so good. I'm not sure he'll be giving him the hairdryer cos he can't take him off. More likely bigging him up or trying to calm him down I would have thought. Much as I like Evans as a player, he can be subbed so maybe SAF could sub him off to try and change the mood of the back four. Basically, it's all down to the attackers picking better passes. I'd like to see Berbs guile before the end of the game - we need some class and to calm the feck down.
 
Bad pass to PIG from Rio? feck off, Jamie. You're talking pipe.
 
Why do we need to rest a goalkeeper? A goalkeeper who is retiring in a few weeks.
My interpretation is that this is 'Last Chance Saloon' for Kuszczak -- prove yourself, or you're on your way.

I'd prefer to just secure the title and play VDS, personally.

I think we'll see a better second half, though (regradless of Kuszczak's performance). We'll take the point we need.
 
the goal btw was not pig fault our whole defence was shocking.
 
PIG is giving me nightmares here, he needs to get his head together and fast. Should have played Edwin today, got it done and rested him next week. I hope PIG can shake the cobwebs though because if he continues this way, it could get worse for us.

We haven't played that bad, some nice bits of play from us but I honestly think PIG's nervousness isn't helping the players out in front of him.

We need a goal, if they get another goal I'll shit myself.

And therein lies the reason why PIG would never be first choice for us.
 
If we dont get the point today means fecking up our preparations for the CL final.

I can understand people saying we can still win it but we should finish it today if we are going to rest players against Blackpool
 
If we don't get an equalizer in the first 25-30 mins of the 2nd half, Owen will come on and get the big goal he's been talking about.
 
Nani was so brilliant for the first half of the season.

Tbh Nani of the old has returned after the Pool game.

I am a bit worried here.

Our away form is certainly the worst ever for a team even challenging for the title?

I agree 100%. every time he gets the ball i expect him to feck up.
 
we need an early goal in the 2nd half, the longer it stay 1-0, I be shitting it.

That's not an excuse at all. I'm sure he'll concede he had a horror first half. If anything, a frightened keeper like that causes the defense to under perform.
 
I think Blackburn will drop so deep in the second half, it will negate playing Hernandez. Berbatov would be better in that situation.
Giggs' passing today has been well off target - hopefully he'll pick up in the second half because he is getting the ball in the right positions to be making stuff happen.
Pick it up fellas - we just need a point!
 
Pig and Evans have been v poor. Evans for the goal, it was worse than school boy defending. I mean for a for ball to come into the box in the air and your man be able to kick it unchallenged is unbelievable at this level.
 
Our new manager is right, Dwight is wrong saying that ball was decent from Rio.. The size and ability of VDS comes to show here, you just have to play different defence with Tomasz in the goal..
 
I really don't want to leave it till the last game. :(

Didn't know that and you're probably right about VDS. I guess that even if we lose today, we'll take Blackpool down.

Nah, Redknapp is talking out of his chuff, that was all PIG.
