Reading vs Manchester United

Fergie needs to bring Giggs on for Park. There's been no width whatsoever.
 
Decent half of footy that, fairly even after a dominant start by us. Rooney is having the very definition of a shocker; knowing him he'll probably be our best player second half! Vidic is immense today, I don't see Reading getting past him personally

Someones just switched the channel to Fulham vs Arsenal, they better change that back!
 
All very frenetic, not really controlling midfield. Should be okay if we pick it up in the second half though.
 
Ronaldo has been majestic, but shot too much and had too little of the ball.
Rooney not as bad as the commentators are making out.
Hargreaves poor.
We really should have scored.
 
Rooney has been unbelievably crap today. His attitude pisses me off, he spends more time complaining to his team-mates and the referee than focusing on what's actually happening on the pitch.

Yup. Worst player by a mile. But it's Carrick who's gonna get all the stick. Wait and see.
 
I think we're looking for the killer pass / shot too early. We need to take our time a little bit, control possession and then look for the openings.
 
Goods news is its still 0-0. Bad news is Reading have actually had the better chances. We've looked poor infront of goal so far, not really helped by Reading who have the art of packing their defense with 6-7 players.

This was always going to be a close game, can't believe some of you thought we'd toast them...
 
Another spastic team selection by Fergie. Why on earth did he pick the Hargreaves-Carrick combo and Park in front of Giggs/Nanni is beyond me.

It's not helping that Rooney and Tevez have been shit thus far, completely useless both of them. It's not looking good til now. Hope we pull a newcastle and spank these feckers.
 
Calm it lads, 0-0 at half time is'nt really crisis time.
But yeah, we were a bit shite.

well tbh we also packed our defence with 7 players: park, hargreaves, carrick, rio, vidic, evra, brown......
maybe we should play a bit more offensive and stop standing so deep?

Shut the feck up would you
 
No width. No width. No width.

Now, where have I heard this before?

Still, nothing a hairdryer can't sort. I was just as frustrated against the barcodes, this time last weekend.

Thats as much Ronaldo as Park.

Park off Giggs on IMO
 
It's like a repeat of the Newcastle match, when Fergie had to tell the players to pass to each other more in the final third.
 
frustrating

and all this hoofing...it sickens me
ban our defenders from trying long passes
 
I'm not too worried yet to be honest. We have done this on a number of occasions this season - average in the first half, but SAF will have a word.

It's not so much a need for "the hairdryer" - we need to be patient and relax. A little more quality in the final ball wouldn't go amiss.

I'd get Giggsy on for PJS to add a little bit of craft.
