SC Braga vs. Manchester United

Not to sound like a broken record but it's funny how Quinn just dismissed that foul on Anderson there. If this was a league game and one of our players did that.......
 
Very harsh yellow there. I just don't understand referees sometimes.
 
Can't remember the last time we went into the half goal-less. Just feels weird.
 
It's so not an enigma for anyone who pays attention. He needs to start with Carrick/Fletcher and Cleverley/Scholes. One ticker-over, one who brings tempo and guile, and one who can provide something a bit special. This isn't Anderson's fault at the moment, it's Fergie's. Is resting a couple of players really worth this happening every CL away game?

So who he plays with dictates whether he can do simple things like complete a pass does it?

Brilliant one game, shit for the next three to four games, that's the continual cycle we get from Anderson.

An extremely talented player but also hideously inconsistent.

He is an enigma.
 
Shaktar level against Chelsea.

EDIT: Crap.
 
It's baffling that we have no desire to play through midfield and are going long so much
 
I hate when we play this unbalanced. So predictable. Attack down the right. Attack down the right.
 
Boring half.

I think this is the type of game where Scholes would have been perfect.
 
Why is Rooney playing so fecking deep? Yes Wayne, you can play a nice 40 yard pass, but that doesnt mean you just sit in the centre circle and pass it wide. Get forward a bit too!
 
Come on United , give the travelling fans something to cheer about.

Because Giggs only ever runs 15 yards at a time, and Anderson has no idea where he's playing.

If Rooney moves forward, we literally have no cover in front of defence.

It's hardly shocking, but that is a seriously unbalanced midfield out there.
 
Valencia has been our best player. The rest have been awful.
 
Oscar scored a screamer apparently

Was a good goal, but will no doubt be overrated. Keeper was outside his box, and Oscar shot from 50 yards. Was actually a pretty simple finish.
 
Bah United needs to stop rigging the group stage draw so we get some exciting group games again:D
 
Hernandez getting lonely up front.

Poor guy is like a Xmas orphan at Scrooge's door not even scraps to feed off. The team has been woeful and the decision of everyone from Rooney backwards to hit long balls isn't opening up Braga at all. Terrible football. No nice quick one touch passing to move men about like we saw at the weekend just look up hit it and hope it doesn't hit some Braga head.
