Reading vs Manchester United

There was a similar panic situation on cafe during everton away last season and newcastle this season.
 
45 mins still to play. The spasticity on the matchday thread never ceases to amaze me.

So far, I'm sure that we are not winning because:

- Hargreaves is shit offensively.
- Hargreaves and Carrick cannot play together.
- Carrick is invisible.
- PJS is rusty.
- SAF has picked a spastic team - Anderson is our saviour and we only win with him.

Bullshit
 
Well, you cannot argue with the fact, that our first half against newcastle was way better. Our centre mid was way better. But, of course, reading have more quality than newcastle. I agree with your second point, but still we havent done enough for the game.


First of all it's not a fact, so I can argue with it. We weren't "way better", it's just easy to say that in the knowledge that we scored 6 after half time.
 
Hargreaves is useless.(today) He's not protecting our back four, he's not doing anything upfront. (today)

What's the point in palying him? (today)
 
If we do in fact not win this one and it turns out that Fergie did rest Anderson, then I'm going to be pissed off, then that'll be the third time he decides to rest our best available central midfielder in 3 difficult away games in the league - and we'll then have lost points in all 3 of them.

Hopefully that will never be the case though. Rooney needs to step it up, Park needs to come off and Ronaldo needs to hit the target.

Are you kidding me ?

He almost scored a goal and he retained ball a few times near our box.

Don't forget we are playing away match and it's important to have such a player like Hargreaves on the pitch.
 
That Cisse for Readings had a lot to do with Rooney having a poor game.

C'Mon mate. OUr first half was also better in the newcastle game. We controlled the game perfectly, and beside the disallowed goal from owen, they didnt even have a chance, today reading had more chances than we had.
 
Yes it is Rooney has been by far the worst player on the pitch

so far....

well he's misscontrolled it once and had one missplaced pass but otherwise he has been passing expertly long and short aswell as having a few good shots blocked.
 
Carrick and Hargreaves should never be used against any team. Ever

Same with Hargreveas and Fletcher

It doesn't work, and invites pressure, even from shit teams

I may have mentioned this before
 
ah got it:

1604: Sir Alex Ferguson takes off Park Ji-Sung at the Madejski Stadium and Ryan Giggs comes on in his place. Giggs takes the captain's armband off Rio Ferdinand in the process, too.
