CL: Lille vs Manchester United

Rio's passing's been surprisingly rubbish tonight. And clearly there's something wrong with Rooney, he's hardly had the ball.

Don't you think that Ronaldo has stopped progressing or is it just me.

I more often than not depressed when watching him play.

He did so very well in preseason games making me think he could be the reason if we have a good season. What i meant was he did excellently in preseason games, all those dives were not there, timing on when to cross or dribbles pass players were spot on, available for the ball, etc. It's just disappointing these days.

I know i love Scholes too much but he's the reason why in the first half we hardly retain the ball in the middle of the field, no one was there to string those passes, no one gets into spaces and hardly any players available for passes/throw ins.

Even one of the pundits said he's never seen Utd play like this before. That's saying something because last week we'd a horrible game.
 
we look like cnuts at the back.lille free kick on the edge of the box
i cant believe we havent upped it yet
 
bout time that no.4 of theirs got booked, he always leads with his elbow, dirty cnut

How many under 23 players did United field in the most important department i.e. the midfield?

Fletcher, Richardson, Rooney, Ronaldo.

And their inexperience has shown - too soft on & off the ball, panicky & stray passes, poor positional play & trying too hard & being unrealistic when in possession, trying to beat players rather than passing.

Agree totally! Especially the panicky part. They have no one available to pass to and when they do pass, looks more like "i want to get rid of the ball, please don't let it stay with me" and like i'd said in my previous post, we miss Scholes.
 
you know what, fuch the lot of youse.

Im trying to watch the game on a stream and follow the match thread for a bit of a laugh like i normally do, but you lot are such a miserable shower of gits im leaving.

I have a great link but im not sharing it with a pack of cnuts like youse.
Utd are on and you lot have been whinging from the very start, as a matter of fact since before the game started. Most of youse arnt even watching the game :wenger:

Fuch off and support Liverpool.

we miss a quality player in form, a natural leader.
we still look rubbish when scholesy is playing,and his passes arent exactly going to his teammates either.
