Manchester United vs. Middlesbrough

vidic would have pounded pogatetz's face into the ground
 
there is something seriously lacking in our play this season. appears to be too many players on the pitch who do not seem to be 100% committed or concentrated. ronaldo is awful at the moment. berbatov gave the ball away in the centre circle with an awful pass and stood there with his hands on his hips watching as first boro went on the attack and then when we played the ball out of defense he was still there in the same spot. I understand how skillful the guy is but for christ sake show some effort. yet again I'm looking forward to the second half thinking things can only get better.

Agree with that not alot more to be said
 
Should be some fireworks in the second half. Ronaldo and Pogatetz having words up the tunnel and then some Boro scrubs talking shit to Ronaldo and players had to be separated. The one thing I love about hockey is crap players like Pogetetz get sorted out on the ice by getting a severe, and legal, ass-beating.
 
Ronaldo is apparently fighting with some of the Boro subs in the dressing rooms.
 
Pogatetz is a disgrace to football, that was disgusting by him at the end and yet the completely blinkered Setanta commentators try to blame Ronaldo.

Honestly, it has been some of the worst commentary I have ever heard from Setanta today - I hate them stupid twats and they've been consistently idiotic all throughout this season. The amount of times I've heard them say "last season..." and then said how (mostly Ronaldo) would have done something better is pathetic. It's as if they've stuffed a load of laxatives up their arseholes and all the turd is just rampaging out of their mouths.
 
Would like to see Tevez come on soon. With all the passes around the box I'd imagine he'd end up putting the ball in the back of the net. Or at least he'd look like he might score. Ronaldo and Rooney are the only ones out there who look like they might do that today.
 
Well that was just torture, one of the worst home game performances since City last season.

Maybe we'll sneak a winner like we did against Sunderland, but playing like this we'll lose against Chelsea and be ********ed anyway. I was hoping for a bounce out of winning the WCC but there's no sign of it. We can't say Boro have parked the bus, they've attacked a fair amount. Just too many players are having poor games.

Berbatov has been almost the only forward whose touch and passing has been decent. Ronaldo has been even worse than he was at Stoke.
Fletcher has been giving his second disastrous performance in a row.

Maybe Scholes can come on and help, but there's nobody else on the bench who can turn this game for us.

We're a million miles from playing like Champions.

Not on the bench

Tevez is not on the subs list. Someone mentioned earlier he's in Argentina this week dealing with a family issue.

Wont be easy he is in Argentina due to a family problem
 
Park and Fletcher are pointless and why the feck does Rooney always complicate things when passing to a teammate? Tons of unnecessary flicks..
 
First of all... Pogatez is a bastard. Second... Come on United! I want to hear the crowd get behind the team more. Get a real passionate atmosphere in there and get the lads abit more up for it before it gets to the last 10 mins and we still need to score.

This i agree with.
 
pogatetz needs a good beating

He's a right feckin bully isn't he. Cowardly twat, annoying this is Ronnie is actually built like a tank, but if he lifts a finger the whole world and his dog will be all over our number 7 like a bad rash. Hopefully he will but Boro to bed second half with a goal or two, biggest blow he could give that cnut. Sooner Boro get relegated the better, horrible fans, horrible manager, horrible football, horrible club.
 
For all this talk of Berbatov having good passing yadda ya, yes he's good

BUT

He's a striker...who isn't scoring goals... PLEASE leave it to the midfielders and make yourself available to score ffs.
 
I think part of the problem is cohesion. A healthy Carrick-Scholes for the second half will be a great boost and help solve much of the midfield issues. Too much chopping and changing. I still think there's a slight Tokyo carry-over but that can only be an excuse for so long. The side clearly misses Rio and Evra today, and probably Scholes. Put the ginger magician on and he'll pick apart this Boro side.
