Portsmouth v Manchester United

Two fantastic passes by Giggs, Rooney should have scored both, thankfully he scored the 2nd.

2-1 United

you mean before the kick was ever even taken? When the ball is struck he lets go of the shirt and the pompey player attempts to head it. no one called for the penalty it was a ref imparting himself on the game. what you describe happens on nearly every spot ball situation at every level of the game.

Technically of course your right but in realty we all know what should have been called.

I firmly believe although there are so many spastics on this forum that Not One on here would have called for a penalty if the situation was reversed.

You believe that there are manchester united fans on a manchester united fan forum that wouldnt have called for a penalty if "technically" an opposing player fouls our player in the box?

I dont quite agree. I think just about everyone would have called for it and a (growing) section would have called for anything that came close to being a foul in the box, even if its a pretty clean challenge.
 
I think he's a capable footballer - very bloody capable actually. But not in this advanced role I agree.

The overall problem is that we have, as you say, too many midfielders who operate well from deep and not enough higher up the field.

Aye, Anderson in the playmaking role is a disaster. Anderson as an Essien type, may not be so bad.

I have said it so many times this season, even when we have won, that we badly need a playmaker, to create and pass, pass, pass.
 
Yeah Rooney's shite on his own, hasn't even scored a hat trick yet.
 
Is it just me or have Pompey suddenly pushed up hugely this half? In the first half we never had that much space behind their back-4, but in the opening 2 minutes of this half Rooney has been through twice
 
Looks like Fergy gave them all the hair dryer at HT....much better tempo this half.
 
Moan moan moan from some of you lot. Wanting to ring in the changes immediately, well guess what we're winning 2-1.
 
:lol: Every game giggs has a poor half. People ask for him to be taken off, and he goes and scores or sets up a goal in the second half
