Manchester United Thread

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

:) Love how Fergie keeps in touch with his former players. His phonebook must have thousands of numbers in with all the contacts he's got across the world! :LOL:

I think Torres and Gerrard will play some part for Pool so we'll have to watch out for that and I think Valencia will be rewarded for his 2 goals with a starting berth.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

was there any need for that?

Hargreaves wasnt in the photo either, bit odd lol
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

He looks like a cunt in the same way that Ronaldo did. Hopefully the similarities wont end there. :))
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I bet Hargreaves was having surgery when the pic was taken

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Can we finally all agree that Berbatov is miles off the pace and he doesn't deserve a starting place?

No I'm not fucking using him as a fucking scapegoat before you all fucking say it. Everytime he got near the ball, he lost it, he did shit all and then had the cheek to have a go at Valencia when he misplaced a pass to him!?

Anyways, we were terrible. The forwards were awful, the midfield was none-existent and the defence was shaky as per usual this season.

Seems we've lost the ability to even compete in a match against Liverpool and that's just fucking sad.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Carrick and Scholes in a big game like that, doesn't work for me.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Berba lost it in te second half and was rightly subbed but before that he was one of our better players. Certainly gave more than Rooney was.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I think giving Scholes any sort of responsibility in a big match doesn't work, he should just be used in cup games and then retire to be honest.

Notice how much better Giggsy was in the middle? (albeit he was still fucking gash)

Berba lost it in te second half and was rightly subbed but before that he was one of our better players. Certainly gave more than Rooney was.

FUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK OFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

EVERY fucking time he got near the ball he lost it, complained, looked at other players and generally didn't give a shit. BECAUSE of him, Rooney had nothing to work with, especially considering most of the balls up front went to Berbatov. I'm not saying Rooney wasn't poor, because he was, but he sure as hell sparked up when Owen got on the pitch. Speaking of which, Owen, against Liverpool, why the hell didn't we start him!? He did more in that one little run behind Carragher and the pass to Valencia when he hit the bar than the other two did in over an hour or more.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

It's these kind of games that players make a name for themselves.

They should have expected that 'Pool would raise their game but no-one really looked like they wanted to grab the game and try and win it for us.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Dare I say you missed Fletcher. Carrick and Scholes were lethargic to say the least.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

No you're totally right, Fletcher playing and it might have been different. Carrick and Scholes couldnt cope with the constant pressing.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Fletcher and Giggs in the center is probably out best midfield pairing at the moment. Neither of them were there.
But to be fair, Giggs was forced out wide cuz with Nani and Valencia playing, you wouldn't have had anyone on the bench.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Why is anyone surprised? Rafa has turned Liverpool into the great levelers - whenever quality teams play them it's disjointed, poor football - often decided by a moment of genius from Torres. It's Rafa's way - football by numbers. If players try to express themselves, yell at them to get back into their preassigned area of the pitch. And if the opponents try to play football, foul them. By my count Lucas committed 9 fouls, no bookings, Evra, Berba and so forth get booked for nothing challenges.

I agree with Vida's red. I actually am starting to doubt if he's as good as people make him out to be. Good in the air, not so good anywhere else.

We weren't great, but that's because we played Liverpool. Give them credit where it's due. If it was Bolton we just played, everyone would moan about anti-football...
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

It won't affect us in the long run but the team need to pull their finger out in these kind of big games.

I mean, what if we were to draw 'Pool in the CL knockout stages?
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

I was surprised Anderson didn't play.

Bring back the Ando-Hargo midfield partnership for big away games circa late 2007. :D
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Well I was suprised with the team sheet. Against the big sides we need someone to put their foot in and use their energy. Fletcher obviously was out so I expected Anderson to start or Giggs in the centre. Scholes and Carrick are both to static.

Nani should have started on the left IMO, I really think we missed a trick their as he's been very good against Johnson in the past and brings that "Spark" you need in big games.

Berba was fucking awful agreed Matherto but so was a lot of our players. Vidic is in shocking form, needs to get dropped for a game or 2 and he'll sort himself out.

Overall we just didn't pick the right team and the one we did pick was awful.
 
Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.

Anti-Football?

You were battered all over the pitch by a team low on confidence and "in crisis"

It wasnt a pretty demolition, but once again, like Anfield last year which team won the 50/50's and the aerial challenges. Liverpool.

Rooney's "chance" try to flick a tame cross that went behind him, and Valencia hitting the bar from an impossibly tight angle was all you could muster
