It's been a while since I last heard these 'much needed kick up the backside' comments.
The last one that really worked was against shitty 3 years ago.

Don't spoil the fun.
Anyone care to mention how he scored, or are you all too busy sharpening your knives?
powerful header by ronaldo....1000th goal. FINALLY scoring off a corner in the premiership. ronaldo's header was top quality, it was worth about 5 'normal-boro' goals in my book. we win
We're the second best side in Greater Manchester. Wigan's the best. City's the worst.

I don't think you can blame anyone but the team for this performance.
One of those days. We've had them throughout our history, Southampton, Newcastle. Unexplained shite performances.
what was up with SAF and CQ's expression?
FT: 13 points behind the Renties,and going into next saturdays match with Morale low.In the past i would say we would come back from this but i'm not so sure now.

You've been listening to Jose
How does Scholes keep a straight face when he is selected for games??
Remember when we had:
Giggs - Scholes - Keane - Beckham
There was not a team in Europe that would have had anything to add to that midfield...compare that to us now.

Very disappointing.
The consolation for me is that I have to go to the country until Friday and wont have internet access for all the shit that will written in the next week.

Poor-est side that SAF has ever had working for him, no idea how to even pass to each other, sometime wonder what they do on the training pitch?
This is going to be the longest season on record and with new owners looking on, I cannot see this side or managment team being in place come next summer!!
So low I just wona get pissed for about 6 months!
Losing has it's charms.
The wins feel so much better.

Fair point.
However, if an empire falls because it is over-run by an attacker, fair enough.
If an empire falls because the players / management have grown fat on success then it's time for change.

Oh that helps so much, now I will shoot myself in the chest not the head!
Our problems are not really that difficult to fix, we need 2 world class midfielders, then when our injury list gets a little smaller we will be a great team again.
very humilating and absolutely pathetic.
1. We have NO leader at present.
2. Our midfiled is awful, and gets worse with the wrong tactics.
3. Queiroz needs to go...

Agree with that about queiroz, that guy is just about the worst coach you could have. Still I do not see our problem to be fully his fault, we have NO midfield...

Great way to get rid of the anger.

Starting to agree with point 3, what the hell do they do on the training ground, basic passing look to hard for this lot!
Looking Busy said:
Why?
Is a midfield of
Ronaldo - Fletcher - Smith - Park
...not enough to win these games???
Surely by playing Fletcher instead of Ronaldo, he went for a more defensive formation
Spoony said:
LOL!
My turn first !
swooshboy said:
It is not good enough because from the 2 guys in the middle of that midfield none of them can actually play in midfield(at least not as effective midfielders) It must be some sort of post Glazer joke, our 2 top class midfielders are an x striker, and a young guy who promised much but has still delivered nothing. With ambitions like that we look as if we are trying to win the division below the one in which we are currently playing.
Fletcher & O'Shea are simply not good enough, even as squad players.... Scholsey's best days are memories, the heart is not in it........Rio is playing utter shite, I just hope this is temporary.......After a flying start, Park is already starting to fade !
OK!.. we have crippling injuries, but what is now proven, is that we do not have the quality in the squad, which is required to challenge for the major trophies.
On the plus side, goal will do Ronaldo the world of good. .... We cannot play this bad again, maybe, just maybe we might now turn the corner....Players coming back, Rio might just buckle down, Scholsey show some heart etc. I cannot see any hope for Fletcher/O'Shea !.... Maybe give the much maligned Liam Miller his chance now!...there is no way he is worse than the 2 aforementioned players. scored a nice confidence booster during the week.
It's been a really shite day !

Why wasn't he?
Livvie said:
its quite obvious that fletcher is pressuring saf, he probably has some very dirty information ready to leek to the press if he gets subbed.
Right then. I vote for the team that started against Barnet. Who agrees with me
ThomasM said:
Or maybe its because they play in different positions, and Ronaldo has been poor in the last few games. Just a thought.
Well we were very bad today and deserved to be beaten, but I am still and always will be United. Wait till january and we will buy some really good additions to our midfield. I feel good about this.
Glazer... Sell those Bucaneers and get your money over bucken here.
Im red2 said:
And that is going to make a difference between now and January how?
Looking Busy said:
Of course that would make no difference between then and now. But the world does not end in January, all I am saying is that we need some backing, and if this Glazer guy is dedicated to the cause( I do not think he is) then he would sell those Buccaneers and put the money into United. Also I do now think that SAF is past his time. The judgement of SAF during his time at United has lead us to our most succesful period ever, and Sir Alex Ferguson has been our best ever manager, he deserves some sort of special post at United without a doubt. But the team at the moment is really crap, and I think Alex has lost the current plot.
He did say at the start of the season that he was happy with the current squad, and I remeber thinking, hey:: we have no midfield. Of course we have some really good players who are out injured, and I am sure we will come back. But, hey look at our midfield, it is a joke.
I hope queiroz wins the lotto or something and just goes somewhere else.
