Man United vs Portsmouth, 26.02.05

52' Replay shows that a shot by scholes was defended with Steve Stone's hand inside the box. The defender stuck his hand out and blocked the shot. Now, the only reason why the penalty was not given would be that the shot was weak. But the ref was very close and should have seen and called the penalty. The comentator agrees with me.

Handball is handball no matter how weak the shot. we should have had a penalty.
 
Ron proves what we all already knew, that he can't take crossing free kicks.
 
58' Ronaldo makes a great roll with a bit of a step over on the right side that would have enabled him to make a nice cross after a plesant build up, but Ronaldo is fouled. The cross is low and ends up in a defender who hoofs it in midfield.
 
we are trying to rush in and score that second goal. no slow well designed build up yet by us. Rooney looks like is getting very frustrated.
 
Wonder why this happens against sides like Pompey??

Too many matches like this - points thrown away.....

Mind you - can't complain about Djemba and Kleberson anymore.

Must win this one in any event to keep the form going. Don't want to go the same way as Arsenal do we.....?

arghh...Pompey defending with seven players in their own area :mad:
 
Rooney: "feck feck you fecking cnut fecking feck feck cnut!"
 
I reckon Ruud will be off as he is not 100% match fit and he hasnt had a good day but somehow I feel that Ronaldo is the one that has to leave and if he does I get kinda pissed off.
 
And we laughed at Houllier's team selections. :nono:

--Right-back--Centre-half--Centre-half--Left-back-
--------------------------------------------------------
--Striker--Midfielder--Left-back--Striker--Winger-
-------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------Striker----------------------
 
Nope - this look a draw to me. Pompey defending deep and will be happy with a point.

What a difference Keano makes to this side huh?

We're not going to score here.

We're flat, we can't string 3 or 4 passes together.
 
We should be camping out in their box but they are the team pressing us!
 
Oooh!!! Rooney with a good shot, just outside :(
 
Not really, but we are completely flat, reminds me just a bit of Newcastle.
 
Feckin hell. We are playing like it was two minutes left, not twenty.
