If nothing else this should convince the board that we need a striker even if we can't get one who isn't cup-tied.

I don't like to start the new year by agreeing with Livvie, but.... ;)

Cue X-FILES fans coming in claiming Fergie told his lads NOT to score so he gets money for a striker.
 
We look the best side in Europe when we're on the ball between the halfway line and opposition penalty area. So it's disappointing about how often our final ball is shit, including set pieces (unless of course we score from them direct).

I saw Sunderland defend impressively at Liverpool. This is not a team you want to give a goal to.

I think we needed to get into HT at 1-0 really, fergie gives a helluva team talk.

I just wanna get it back under way and get the geordie bastards back on the rack
 
Scoring the first goal has been so vital for us this season. I think we only came back once in the league from behind to win (Charlton) and only lost a win a couple of matches (draws as Sunderland and West Ham) when we scored first.
 
I'd be tempted to bring on Phil Neville - Keane to me still doesn't look fully fit and has been very careless by his standards.

Aaaahhh...normality is restored. :D

I think Keane is doing ok. I'd bring Giggs on for Forlan and move Scholes behind Ole.

He's right to try and get a top quality forward, but in the meantime he could have loaned one you'd think. Whats up with Ole today? His finishing is usually so much better than that. I just cannot understand how we can miss so many chances, though credit to Macho for some excellent saves.

Spent so much time on the right wing he's forgotten he's a striker.

I think that's because our defense has been better than our strikeforce this season.

I keep forgetting he's on the pitch but we need to giving him the match practice. Not sure about Phil Neville as replacement, because there's nothing for a defender or defensive midfielder to do ! More likely Richardson to create some additional pressure on the left flank.

I'll bet O'Shea and Silvestre spend 90% of the second half on the attack.

Diego has been poor, I think.

play Giggs on the left so he and Micky can "double tandem" the sunderland right back the way O'Shea and becks are doing on their side.
 
We are missing Ruud and we need Ryan on the left IMO. Don't be negative, be just had some bad luck in the first half. :) :)
 
you all watching rush hour 2 tonight? its funny as hell, and the 2 main ladys in are FINE! ;) :p

I'll be watching. :D

Zhang Ziyi &lt;&lt;swoon&gt;&gt; ;)
 
Mickey Thomas says we gonna win still. So let's sit back and relax and enjoy it................
 
Surely if you keep getting chances, odds are you must score. Weird thing these jinxes, but sometimes once you score, its easier to score again.

One of his worst films in my opinion, I prefer his earlier, less Hollywood, ones.

police storys cool as fcuk
 
I can see us having 98% possession only to give away a goal on the counter... lose 2-0 or 2-1.
