When Ronaldo plays well we win, when Rooney plays well we win.

Haydar – right on. Gary Neville looked terrible. Whether it was a lack of fitness or just a decline in his play, it was noticeable that when Wesley Brown jogged onto the pitch that the balls started to stream in from the right side.

Haydar, yes I did. It’s what you’d expect after playing next to no games in a year and a half.

The fact that Zenit played so well, with quick movement and clever passing didn’t help.

did anyone else think that neville was well… awful? He seemed like he was too afraid to cross the ball, he hesitated every time he got a pass…

I was quite concerned about actually conceding 3 goals, when Danny failed to score on his easiest chance. When was the last time we conceded 3 in a Premier League game?

Tevez did make the whole experience easier to watch and I think I’ll have to get me one of those^ t-shirts to celebrate.

He is quickly becoming the fans favourite and the neutrals too. Everyone loves a good, honest and hard working (as well as top quality) footballer and Tevez has it all!

for the record (from a random site but explains well):

Disinterested or Uninterested?
Disinterested means “impartial” or “not taking sides.” (In other words, not having a personal interest at stake.)

Uninterested means “not interested.” (In other words, not showing any interest.)

Correct: A good referee should be disinterested.
(He does not take sides.)
Incorrect: He was disinterested in Jill’s hobby.
Correct: He was uninterested in Jill’s hobby.
(He shows no interest.)

Thought you’d like to know – I have to admit, I didn’t know the difference…

Carlitos has been as good as expected – and I expected a lot from him: after all, he was not only solely responsible for keeping West Ham in the EPL once he was given the chance to play but he was also the South American player-of-the-year three times in a row, playing for Boca and then Corinthians. This guy is the real deal. He loves to play and he plays with great energy and strength.

Since Ronaldo and Rooney are no-brainer selections for any significant match when they are healthy, I still wonder how SAF will accommodate Tevez and Berbatov – 4-2-3-1 or 4-2-1-3 ? Or is this simply using numbers for no good reason when the attack will be fluid and interchangeable ?

Carlitos’ run down the right touchline and around the fullback could have led to a magnificent goal IF his pass hadn’t been ever-so-slightly behind Rooney that caused the Boy Wonder to fiddle about rather than hitting it first-time (Gazzaro is wrong to blame Rooney for that !).

By the way Scott, the rest of the team was “uninterested” – NOT “disinterested”. Check your dictionary on the difference in meaning. It’s part of a journalist’s education to use our language as precisely as possible !

I think it’s true that if we sign Berbatov, we should leave Rooney out from the start eleven. At least, just to let him know that we all need to see him get back to his best (like the first season with us).

We all love United, we all sad when our team lost, and we don’t want to see him keep playing and saying (when he’s not score) that “I’m not selfish” again… IT”S SAD….
