Manchester United vs. Wigan Athletic, 20/11/10

Can i just ask when it became a prerequisite that your team must be 'enjoyable' in order to 'earn' our support? There's some right fecking cnuts in here.
 
Park was our best player that half, again.

Yet to be impressed by Obertan off the front man. Cant help feeling his main asset is much better suited to playing wide.
 
The goal will encourage Fergie to keep the same players out there, but he still needs to change it. Obertan and Macheda have had enough of a chance out there.
 
Almost half time and we haven't scored yet?

This is an OUTRAGE!!!

Our performance has left a lot to be desired to be honest. Delighted with the lead but we've almost never looked like scoring today. This is a team we pumped 10 goals past last year. Wish we would put on another striker. Delighted with the lead anyway.

Hope B'ham can hold on!
 
i just hope someone moves up top with kiko
obertan/nani/park or someone from the bench
 
I really feel for Macheda, whenever he gets a chance we always always always isolate him up top on his own and he inevitably struggles to make an impact, just for once it would be nice if we gave him a partner.

Agreed. Can't really fault him that half, just like its unfair to judge Berbatov in the same position.

Obertan has a great 1st touch but little end product at the momment.
 
Bit disappointed with Evra'a celebration. I was celebrating it more!
 
I really feel for Macheda, whenever he gets a chance we always always always isolate him up top on his own and he inevitably struggles to make an impact, just for once it would be nice if we gave him a partner.

Totally agree. Just 'cause he's a big lump doesn't mean that he's suited to a lone striker role.
 
Park must be the most lightweight player in the league. He's been knocked over about 10 times in the first half alone.
 
I still dont get why we play Kiko up front alone, hes so isolated its not even funny. Obertan has looked lively but rarely picked a pass out, Fletcher has looked poor hope Scholes comes on for him.
 
The thing about starting young guys like Macheda and Obertan in matches like this is that when things arent going well they are the ones being replaced and then goes their confidence. I will never understand why Fergie seems so relucant to play the strongest eleven available. 3 points against Wigan is as important as 3 vs Tottenham or Arsenal yet Scholes,Rooney and Giggs are on the bench and we play like shit and somehow scored a late goal.
 
Slow and no cutting edge all half. Serious lack of creativity in the final third. We really struggled to create anything all half with all that possession.

Still, good scoreline. Hopefully we kick on second half and play some good stuff.
 
Chelsea trailing 1 - 0 as well... this could turn out to be an excellent weekend.
 
park has been poor and one decent cross doesn´t change that.

i like park and every team would love a player like him but that doesn´t change the fact that he has been poor for most of the season.

Bollocks, minus a goal Park did exactly the same today as Bale was doing against Arsenal. Won freekick after freekick with his running. Its a lot more than most of his team mates have managed today.

I'm not a big Park fan but he has his moments when he's in form and some really good one-off performances. Today he's done a very good job so far even if there's room for improvement.
 
I really don't get it how Park has been useless, even bar the cross. He's the most energetic forward for us this half and Wigan have kicked the shit out of him. Really like his form.
 
I really feel for Macheda, whenever he gets a chance we always always always isolate him up top on his own and he inevitably struggles to make an impact, just for once it would be nice if we gave him a partner.

There's some truth in that. Obertan is certainly not a partner up front. Machdea and Rooney could work well.
