Lille v Man Utd

HT; not the best performance and not the United we know.

Hopefully the 2nd half will be a big improvement
 
That was pish poor.

Will do well to get a nil nil out of this. Would take that right now.
 
Porto 2004 > Lille.

Ffs they play at home and defend with their whole team...

I am sure the English media will not stand up for the United fans!Not much will be made out of it !

They're not the printed media, but talkSPORT are standing by us. Just heard Fivelive's match report though, and they didn't even mention it.
 
Replace Larson with Saha, just for the pace, even though the pitch is shit. We can't blame pitches for bad football..anyone watch football in the 70's? All the pitches were shit.
 
Hopefully Fergie has a word about the crowd issue, get it into the media spotlight.

Just had a quick look on RedIssue, one of the lads there says his mates still outside of the stadium unable to get in.

We're not playing great but at least we seem to know what we're doing. We need more from Larsson and Giggs. Ronaldo is getting marked out the game by about three players every time he gets the ball.

Their keeper looks dodgy.
Thats the problem.

United need to make use of this and use another player to convert the passes
 
We've done alright. We get to take them back to Old Trafford remember, so there's no point doing anything silly here. Another half like the first will do fine

The pitch is impossible anyway
 
We have been pretty close at some times. Normal half in an important away game first leg. Think we should continue playing like this, and if nothing happens we should let Park and Saha come on and give it all for 20-25 minutes. We're probably going to take over the game soon. My only concern so far is Rio Ferdinand. He's been slipping and making mistakes...!! Carrick should be more involved in the game as well. Hell, I wonder where that shot he fired would have ended up!
