West Ham vs. Manchester United

he is, he has been the only one putting the boot in and winning the ball midfield

Rubbish, Fletcher has done just as much (or as little as the case may be) as Hargreaves has so far. The reason they are cutting through so easily is they have 3 in the middle to our two and have been passing triangles around them. But you'd expect a £17 million defensive midfield specialist to have a bit more of an effect.

Oh and Giggs hasnt been that bad. One of our better attacking players that half.
 
I can see us getting another goal even though we've been poor. We just look so good on the counter. We can't just keep soaking up the pressure though, West Ham will get one eventually if we do.
 
My fecking stream has switched to darts at half time, I wouldve liked to see the analysis even if it is the shite Setanta presenters.
 
Derby players dressed as Man Utd players

Rio pushed Nobby in the box should have been a penalty but the ref didn't give it

Man Utd only had one shot on target, luckily for you it went in

Solano playng really well

This game isn't over and WH look to be switching to a 4-4-2 for the second half with Ashton replacing either Noble or Mullins

Watch out Anderson's coming in..
 
If two people are running full pelt and one of them just stops, it's not a penalty if the other's momentum keeps them going.

Plus it wasn't a clear goalscoring opportunity, was it? The ball was going nowhere. You won a penalty like that earlier in the season when Bellamy virtually kicked the ball out of play but still fell over the 'keeper.

you mean when the Brum keeper came out dived onto the ball but caught Bellamy first knocking Bellamy over leaving the keeper free to get the ball

Momementum or not Rio pushed Nobby, wherever it was in the box it's still a penalty
 
John Part showing his quality here. If he keeps throwing darts like he is at the moment he'll be giving Taylor a run for his money.
 
Anderson on for tevez,little use playing him as a wing back when he holds the ball up and slows down play when we are looking for a lightining counter
 
What a dire half! Too much dwelling on the ball. Not enough astute passing from midfield, how Anderson didn't start this game is beyond me, it was fairly obvious Fletcher or Hargreaves can't distribute for well enough.
 
i would go 4-3-3

push giggs left, saha down the middle and ronaldo right

replace Tevez with Anderson to shore up the midfield

We are playing 4-3-3. That's part of the problem

Get Anderson off the bench (:wenger:), get Tevez off the fecking wing (:wenger: :wenger:), and move him back into the middle, so we can start maybe playing some fecking football
 
the darts commentator sounds like he has smoked 100 Benson and Hedges every day for 30 years
 
No point bringing either Tevez or Saha off, we need to start playing the football we are used to, and that won't work with 1 striker. We do, however, need Anderson in the centre, so I'd bring him on for Fletcher.

Tevez hasnt been in this game at all

I couldn't agree more.
 
grow a set of balls and argue the point. you're wrong by the way, shitbrick

Aggressive? I, for one, dont think that he is easily MOM. He lost the ball too often and too easily, but on the other hand his assist was great. But still not MOM, that would be either Rio, Vidic, Ronaldo or PIG for me.

And secondly, Fletcher should be subbed off.

Fletcher off for Anderson.

Reason Tevez hasn't been in the game is because he's playing on the wing. We need to push Saha on to stretch the defense, with Tevez just behind him, supplying the ammunition.
 
i pulled me hair out when ronnie played him through.

Can't believe his touch let him down there...it's usually fecking mint...

Great cross for the ronnie goal mind

tevez on the left make any sense to anyone?

Same, i really thought it was a goal because it was something like 4 on 2 in that situation and Giggs was 1 v 1; he's usually really composed in those situations.

And there was that bit where Saha played the pass to Ronnie out wide and he messed it up; should have played it left i thought to Tevez. Just as we've looked like creating something on the break we mess it up with a poor touch or pass. also that bit with Ronaldo cutting in at the end.

But them going 4-4-2 will suit us, mainly because we've only got three players crossing the halfway line with their trio of Parker, Mullins and Noble stiffling Fletch and Hargreaves. Which is where Anderson hopefully will come in.

It was always going to be a tough game this; i'll be very much happy with 3 points, through any sort of performance. We certainly rode our luck though with the sitters they have missed.

Tevez hasnt been in this game at all

Either of Hargreaves or Fletcher. Doesn't really matter which.

Tevez hasn't been in the game because he's been stuck out on the fecking left, in order to incorporate Fergie's latest spastic attempt to play three in the middle

Momementum or not Rio pushed Nobby, wherever it was in the box it's still a penalty

That was never a penalty..
penalty for what?
Shoes coming off ?
