Fulham vs Manchester United

hahaha there goes Scholes yellow virginity. fecking hell, he should have had at least a yellow every game starting from the tottenham one. Other than that it looks like Ronaldo is bothered by something and is only doing offensive duty. Cool to see some hot feeling out there. Hopefully a Fulham player will get sent off. Their left wing finally cooled off and if they continue to play the way they do the second goal will come. Bloody hell, was that goal Giggs scored a mistake? Sweet as feck it was.
 
It could be worse. We need to go into the second half getting those poor touches sorted and look to score goals
 
F*ck its only 1-1, We must do better in the 2nd half.
 
Five live saying that there could be more to Gazza not playing today .A bust up with SAF.
 
First half , too many aimless longballs upfield. Carrick, Scholes, Rooney non existant. Wes Brown can not pass to save his life. Evra looks like he is still in France. The one positive is we can not play this badly in the second half - can we ??
 
this has to be one of the worst first half displays of the season, the passing is woeful, but having said that we have had a good couple of chances, to take the lead, need to bring on Saha for the second half.
 
Carrick and Scholes need to run the midfield...

What are the odds for Ginger to be sent off?
 
1-1 HT, Ronaldo looks good, taking on the Fulham defence. Evra should have done better with that chance though.
 
Larsson hasn't done a lot. I'd far rather see Saha on. He usually does well against his old club. The ref was dying to give Scholes a yellow. The away fans as usual sound good.
 
Very loose half, Brown needs to sharpen up and Scholes and Carrick need to get involved in the game more - there were glimpses of Scholes spraying passes around towards the end of the half and it needs to continue through to the 2nd half
Carrick has been totally anonymous - cant get hold of the ball.
Giggs looks likely to give us another break through, and Rooney and Ronaldo look lively as always,
 
Fulham fans are a fecking joke. Only time you hear them is when they boo us. Our fans doing us proud as usual even when we were losing.

We'll come through this one.

+1

Is Larsson even out there? First time I heard his name was 16 minutes when he was offside. Brown struggling going forward as well, he usually does better. Poor decision from Vidic. Carrick playing like shit for the first 30 minutes or so as well. Other than that, :lol:, we're fine.

Ronaldo looks likely to give us the winner, maybe Rooney as well.
 
Evra was disgraceful with that miss...
Fulham are seeing too much of the ball in midfield...Carrick needs to step up..otherwise Scholes will be taking a walk to the tunnel...

Saha has to come on...Giggs and Ronaldo look great...

Defence looks very indecisive...first time for a long time...

keep the nerve lads...

Very nice reply that... really should me :rolleyes: :lol:
scouse gonna win the title right? signed that Mascherano fella


wish I had cable tv, relying on match commentary sucks
 
I just don't get this hangover excuse from the midweek. It's not like they played last night, and had to get up this morning and play an early kickoff game. FFS, it was 3 days ago!! They were sleepwalking for the first 20 mins. Couldn't put 3 passes together, lost every 50-50 challenge and kept giving the ball away.
Has anyone noticed how we keep commenting worst performance of the season, we've been saying this for the past few weeks now, and its no coincidence. I shake my head whenever Fergie says we're in good form, because let's be honest, the resulst have been good, but the performances have been very unconvincing, even in the 4-0 win at Spurs.
I hope they come out in the second half with a much improved performance.

The biggest cheer was when Giggs over-hit a pass. When Ronaldo saved it, they were silenced instantly
 
Our defence has been pretty poor so far, especially Vidic who looks somehow distracted. Rio isn't much better though.

Carrick doesn't exist today, everytime he receives the ball he's being closed down by one of their midfielders which forces him to make unprecise passes. Scholes isn't much better than him today too.

Our wings have been very good, especially Ronaldo who runs the show on the right, I'm also impressed with Rooney who seems to have retained form. Maybe not form, but it's some form to say the least.

Larrson has been poor and needs to be replaced by Saha as soon as possible. All he needs at the moment is a rest.

Also, I don't know why Evra hurried so much with taking that shot, he had plenty of time and if he took the ball with him, wait and shoot we would've been 2-1 up at half-time.

Having said that, I don't usually expect wing-backs to have any composure in front of the goal, all of them lose it when they get an opportunity. Evra has been pretty good generally.
 
fecking pathetic opening 15-20 mins with defenders resorting to the much feared hoof-ups and Scholes and Carrick not really in the game and Carrick particularly bad with his touches and passing.

Got better after that and the goal was a huge relief. Towards the end of the half, we saw Scholsey take hold of the ball in the middle and spread it wide. We need to see more of that. Carrick needs to get more in the game.

Ronaldo seems on the money today, but needs to get more of the ball to run at the full backs. There hasnt been enough of that. Rio and Vidic were sloppy in the beginning as well. Lets hope Scholsey can start to dominate the midfield. The rest of our game will come after that.

Also, I can't understand why Saha does'nt start these days. We have undoubtdly played our best football with Rooney and Saha up front. Added to that Larsson will be gone soon and we need Saha to hit top form ASAP.

fecking come on you reds.

Yes, plus they had so much egg on their faces after seeing Ronaldo keep the ball in play that when the referee blew for a foul on Paul Scholes they literally went mental in the stands.
 
Hopefully saha comes on soon.....

something needs to be changed....

fulham have us figured out....
