1. Whenever a side sacks their manager you have to worry about what impact it will have on their players ahead of the next game. Mark Hughes, who has had a dismal time at QPR, was sacked before the game and new manager Harry Redknapp was watching from the stands. “There’s only one Harry Redknapp!” the away fans sung and their players seemed genuinely motivated to perform. They had only picked up 1 point from their six away trips before yesterday but on their first half showing you’d struggle to point out which team was going for top of the table and which team was at the bottom. QPR didn’t look good but neither did United, although the away side looked handy enough of the break and we offered little when in the final third. Still, as Ferguson said after the game, we played properly for ten or fifteen minutes and this was enough to win us the game, illustrating just how poor that QPR side is.
2. Paul Scholes is a genius and for much of this season he has been one of our most effective players. His performances against Southampton away and Spurs in the second half were a joy to behold. He so often pulls the strings for us and despite having just turned 38-years-old, he still has so much to offer. Yesterday was a rare off day for him though and he seemed fairly determined to pick up his fifth yellow card of the season that sees him banned for a game. With just ten minutes played he had already been given his last warning by the ref but managed to last until the 55th minute until he was booked. Fergie subbed him off almost instantly and as the manager commented, Anderson changed the game. We had been so slow on the attack, which wasn’t helped by the formation and lack of wingers, but Ando upped the tempo. Instead of looking to pick a pass, he just charged forward from midfield with the ball at his feet and really gave the QPR defence something to think about. Within 15 minutes of him coming on, United went from 1-0 down to 3-1 up, with him assisting the third goal. The Brazilian is long overdue a start in the league. Can we expect that for West Ham and Reading? Let’s hope so. Anderson’s United career has fallen in to a horrible cycle of him playing well, picking up a long term injury, returning to look half arsed and not good enough, picking up and playing well, then getting injured again. Hopefully he can be given a long run in the team now to prove what he can do and break the cycle of injuries.
3. Whilst I’ve singled out Scholes, that is more to provide a direct comparison with what Anderson brought to the game, but there were much worse performers than him on the pitch. Ashley Young, yet again, looked very poor, and I do wonder what it is the manager thinks he brings to the team. He won’t run past players, his crosses hit the first defender, his freekicks go in to the wall and he loses possession regularly. In the attacking third, he completed as many passes as Jonny Evans and half as many as Rio Ferdinand. I don’t doubt his effort, I genuinely believe that Young is trying hard when he’s on the pitch, but he just doesn’t seem good enough. He’s 27-years-old and has been at the club for over a season, so now he should be at his peak. Maybe a string of games will help him improve but right now he looks to be a poor man’s Nani, but it’s the Portuguese winger we’ll sadly be kicking out in January/next summer.
4. Danny Welbeck didn’t do himself any favours yesterday either but then he was played out of position. He could have had a goal to his name seconds before he was taken off if Robin van Persie had played it across goal for a simple tap in, instead of lashing it in to the side netting. It was a frustrating afternoon for our strikers, with Wayne Rooney probably having the best day of the lot thanks to two great corners but he was prone to having the ball pinched off him too easily. Maybe the blame for that can be the slowness of the game before the changes with half an hour to go, but they just didn’t seem at the races. Rooney had two shots on target in 90 minutes and Van Persie had one. When you consider this is the worst team in the league we were playing, at home, it doesn’t look great. The conditions probably didn’t help though, with Van Persie slipping and sliding all over the place, but it would be good to see them back on the scoresheet midweek.
5. That said, who needs goalscoring strikers when you have a homegrown defender and midfielder coming up with the goods? Evans has now scored 3 goals in his past 7 games, a record that mirrors Rooney’s recent form, having previously scored just one goal for the club. He was solid in defence but is looking more and more confident coming forward too. He looked chuffed to bits when wheeling away in celebration and, had we not still had a game to go out and win, would have likely indulged in the crowd’s adulation more than he did, but it was straight back for the restart. It was a Rooney corner and a Welbeck head down that set up our equaliser. The goal that put us ahead came directly from a Rooney corner and it was Darren Fletcher, scoring his first goal since the consolation one he grabbed for us in the game we do not speak of last season, whose header found the back of the net. He had a fairly unremarkable game, although did see the ball more than any of our players, but it was brilliant to see his name on the scoresheet again.
6. After scoring so many goals from the bench, Chicharito was rewarded with a place in our starting line-up last weekend when Rooney was missing. The whole team were unimpressive but Hernandez did little to show the boss why he should move up in pecking order. Yesterday, he had one attempt on goal and it wrapped up the game for us. Hernandez is a brilliant finisher, who often needs just one chance to score, and I’d be tempted to keep him on the bench. Start him in the cup games and give him half an hour or so in the league to keep him happy. If he doesn’t play regularly for us, there are plenty of other teams who will be keen to give him more minutes on the pitch, so we have to get the right balance. Van Persie and Rooney are rightly our first choice but Hernandez is a brilliant option to have. He averages a goal every 60 minutes this season which is incredibly impressive when you compare him to other strikers like Dzeko (one goal per every 68 minutes), Suarez (one every 108 minutes), Ba (one every 121 minutes), Van Persie (one every 129 minutes) and Tevez (one every 154 minutes).
7. Rafael da Silva and Patrice Evra quietly got on with their job and were rarely caught out of position, which is probably the biggest flaw for the both of them. Rafael has gone from strength to strength this season and Evra, whilst suffering from poor form for the best part of two seasons, has really upped his game in recent weeks. The goal conceded was down to poor positioning though, but from goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard and probably Rio Ferdinand, who was marking nobody as Mackie came in unmarked behind him for a simple tap in. Lindegaard didn’t have much to do but was unimpressive for their goal. David de Gea is our number 1. Business as usual next week please.
8. Throughout the first half and particularly when we were 1-0 down, my mind kept wandering to the obligatory Harry Redknapp interview that would follow. Unable to keep the grin out of his voice, he would hail the triffic performance and the triffic team spirit, and I just couldn’t bear it. Watching MOTD last night I saw that odious melt-face didn’t even bother smiling when QPR took the lead, let alone applauding. It goes without saying I will be delighted if we are champions in May, but I would also be very pleased to see that lot relegated.
9. For an hour we looked poor yesterday. We had no ideas and our play was very slow. This season will be the easiest in years to win the league, for the team that really wants it, because everyone at the top looks fairly naff on a pretty regular basis. When you look at the talent in our team, and in that of City and Chelsea, it’s hard to believe the standard of football has been so low. It was a huge defeat last weekend and one we couldn’t really afford right now. We got the result we want at Stamford Bridge today and now we have to win our up coming games to stay there, but we should be top by a comfortable margin. Essentially, all that matters is the points, but I want us to get in to a run of good form so we don’t have to be worrying that every game is going to produce a result like the Everton, Spurs and Norwich games did. The title is there for the taking. Let’s bloody well go and get it!
Man Utd News 24/7
Haven’t read the article yet cause I am watching the two cunts playing, I am just not sure what’s the best score for us. Draw? Chelsea win?What you guys think?
We played for 10 minutes full stop, game changed when there was energy in the middle,
RIP Dave Sexton who managed us for a short period
Anyone else thinks that sir Alex is worried that tom c and Anderson might Get injured again if they play too much and intends to blood them in slowly so their ready for the post Christmas games?
I still believe Nani is better than Young.
@kel No that isn’t in ANY DOUBT. Nani is FAR AND AWAY better than Young. It’s not even remotely close. The only winger in the team that’s even close is Valencia.
Game was pish but three points,will definately need to play a whole lot better in every game.
Out of curiousity then why cant Nani get in And stay in the team?
@parryheid cuz fergie’s not happy with him.
dannysoya Loves Usain Bolt.
Oh.that explins it then.
All square,City may find themselves in a bit of bother second half I’m thinking.
The problem with Nani is not just that fergie isn’t happy with him, he has been in piss poor form, is making no progress in signing a contract, fought a youth player at carrington too. That being said i would be delighted if he signs up a new contract and comes into the team and plays well.
Funny that there’s loads of banners at Stamford bridge in favor of Di Matteo and against Rafa, but not one I’ve seen that complains about the person who fired Di Matteo. Know what you are Chelsea, a billionaires toy. You are there for his amusement, he doesn’t give a shit what u think.
Either Fernando is a bit frustrated, or that was just a shot that was miles off target. It’s got to the stage where it’s hard to know.
Cole saving chavs ass with two good clearances
I miss the old Manchester United when Ronaldo was here, teams used to fear us, now they can’t wait to play us. We have turned into easy pickings for other teams, when they look at our midfield they must think they can win. When I watch Borussia Dortmund they remind me of the Manchester United that used to terrorize defenses. In the Champions League we could potentially face Real Madrid, AC Milan, Schalke, Borussia Dortmund, PSG or Valencia who are much better than the teams that we have faced. So we need to improve as soon as possible, the old Manchester United would of battered this QPR team 5 or 6 – 0 instead we are struggling.
3points. At times hard to wotch But weve been like this for the past two seasons aswel. We can play some sublime footie, play crap and slow then ok again all in the same game. The important thing is we got the 3 points. Id b happy with a draw today as i detest both teams asmuch. Just hope we keep ando and clevs for the pl game nxt wkend. Great to see Fletcher score yesterday hope he goes from strength to strength for us. For me its a no brainer that him clevs and ando are in the middle. Id like to see that alot more in the prem.
Poorest performance from the big clubs in years; Scott is right; first team to wake up and assert themselves will win it; we can only get better!
Scholes is a hindrance. He is a sub at best, he can help us see a game out. You have to be out of your mind to play him at his age over Anderson or Cleverly. He only played well against Spuds because they let us and sat back. Southampton away shows how he should be used.
In fact, he has had more poor games than good this season. Yesterday he was slow and couple have walked with his first two challenges. Time to move on.
Chelsea were pis poor today but City were unlucky not to win.
The Premiership is a two horse race between us and City.
@Frankie
I AGREE with you, today we saw how bad chelski are and it doesn’t help them that benitez has been appointed to them

Thats a FACHTS!!
and the best part of this week is
Baggies >>>>>>>>> LFC!!!
LOL
So we are top of the table again.Shity had only one week to celebrate and hopefully that will be the case for the remaining of the season.GO UNITED GO…
On the Welbeck issue, apart from Robin not squaring the ball, Welbeck could have scored a proper goal rather than attempting his regular England backheel goal in a chance he missed. He’ll get better. On Lindergaard, while we know that De Gea should be our first choice, its now fashionable to fault every goal Anders concedes, almost every top keeper concedes the type of goal QPR scored yesterday, a low ball across a crowded box is always tricky no matter how good you are. We’ll beat West Ham and Reading and head for the derby which I really feel confident about.
I support DDG to be number 1 and he rightly deseves to,
but Lindegaard is a good keeper and plays well,

SAF says it how it is.
Agree with all Scotts comments. Hope we wake up and start to play very very soon. City game is around the corner and they will be playing for bragging rights.
My only hope is the manager is playing the squad and trying to get what he can out of it.
Think he has the measure of the Tom (not up for consecutive games) Ando (not up for 90 minutes) and Chicharito (not up for 90minutes and a phenomenal jolt off the bench)
Onward!
I have no problem with West Ham game.it seems an easy one.but Reading away looks a tough prospect”hopefully I am wrong”…now its normal for Fergie to have a remote eye on the depa starting from Wednesday.
Reading over the comments:
RIP Dave Sexton, a generally decent man who only just missed bringing us a first division championship but only lasted 4 seasons. A decent manager but not United grade in the end.
RIP as well to Georgie Best now 7years gone.
@We Are United: Cheers mate….. none of it too original I’m afraid. Just embellished a bit from the games last year! More like the Snooozelico this year!
I love Anderson
Great welcome for the Fat Spanish Waiter on his first match in charge at the bridge:
http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/64373000/jpg/_64373772_64373771.jpg
Anyway, great results for us, both yesterday after that scare and today!
yeah..we need a beckham or a ronaldo again. I have a strong feeling that Nicky Powell can be a big star player for us.
anyway,.,nice write up scott.
Forgive me for completely blatant but if we continue to play like this,city will completely maul us in the derby that too at Etihad. United have been so poor this season in some games that i am surprised out of my wits that we are at top of the table and are done with away games at chelsea, Liverpool, new castle and Everton. Th wing play used to our strength but that seem to have gone down to pits thanks to Young ands eemingly out of form Valencia. But as someone said in the comments that we can only improve from now on so lets see. I am keeping my fingers crossed like any other supporter. Just curious which winter signing will make us stronger any ideas..
El-cashico results just what I needed to start the week. Fuck me Torres is totally out of it. What a shame. A damn fine striker reduced to punch lined, its his own fault really.
Spot on Scott, especially point 4. Danny gave his critics all the ammunition they needed. I actually think he can perform on the left but no doubt he’s much better down the middle, I still expect bigger things from him. Overall he’s impressed me more than any other youngster including Tom C. This tough bit of education will stand him in good stead. Roo had to play on the left when Ronaldo wad doing the business and it did help mature his game. With Danny however I expect him to push on. Fact RVP isn’t the future of the club. He’s gonna be 30 soon and when that hits the clock starts ticking. Danny and Hernandez are the future and its important they learn the ins and out.
Doubt fletch plays midweek but regardless I’d like to see the gaffer play a 3/5 man midfield with Carrick, Ando and Tom C or maybe even Powell. Fans asking for a Ando tom C duo alone are simply crazy and asking for trouble. Those two need some steel and guidance. Only Fletcher and Carrick can provide that. Can’t fucking wait to see kagawa back. Something tells me he’s on a program as opposed to this “injury “. Love to see Roo do more though. Can’t fault his desire and commitment but you fan point fingers at his overall play. Not good enough
David Sexton RIP. United manager 1977-1981.
United releases statement.

As long as the wingers feel the need to put in performances like they have done for the last month or so I say lets just go with the diamond. Young is on a new dimension of shit. 18 Million. Bargain. He’s a diver and he’s shit. No-win.
Ice cube you’re another troll cunt who needs to fuck off,there are 4 or 5 trolls who come on ROM who’s only intention is to cause negativity and poison.Anti Scouser,Joffery fuckhead,Ninja the cunt,some twat named Pablo and Ice Cube.I’m guessing they could be a reincarnation of Cunt 9 and his crew but whoever these cunts are not Utd fans just troll cowards who are too ashamed of the team they really support to say so in the open
If there’s any proper Reds left on ROM,have any pride in ROM or being a Utd fan their negative shit needs to stop
Would like a Carrick Giggs midfield with welbeck and valencia on the wings against westham. We will need all the width we can get. Bring on Anderson again if things dont go too well
Wayne. So if you critizise a players performanses your not a real fan and need to fuck off? Listen to yourself.
Ashley Young has the ability but he doesn’t have the mentality he is a bottler.
Danny Welbeck should only be played up top.
Its become quite clear with Fergie playing Scholes / Giggs / Carrick and even Rooney in the middle that he just does not trust Anderson and Cleverley.
OK.
Why doesn’t he trust them ? … injuries in Anderson’s case but cant think of a reason for Cleverley.
That begs the question why didn’t he buy a midfielder or two but either way Scholes cannot keep playing.
The “his legs have gone” statement would have been accurate three years ago. .
How many top teams around Europe have 38 year old central midfielders starting games ?.
Its embarrassing
I fear Scholes is doing damage to his legend by staying too long.
MrKirie welcome to Rom another user name I’ve never seen before,not saying that at all,so unless you’re just another fucking troll I suggest you go through old threads and look at the comments of Anti scouser,ice cube,Joffery tosspost and Ninja the cunt,pablo only came into it today just one of the other fucking wankers changing there name.
You’ll find a constant pattern of negative after negative comments.lots of times in insulting the club and players
So before you throw your hat in the ring and take the side of TROLLS maybe do your homework ok mate
Yeah i don’t find it embarrassing at all, as STR put Scholes is a genius,still the best passer in the league who’s having a good season just had a off day.Age has fuck all to do with it isn’t such a thing as to young or to old,only good enough
He’s enhancing his legend status by maintaining a top level for so long,half the cunts in the prem would wish to do what he still produces.
I disagree on one point, scholes. No offence to the guy, a legend, but he brings to many problems to the team. His lack of energy to press teams, it makes united very one paced. For me we really should start looking at the likes of cleverly and anderson to start far more, with fletcher slowly brought back into the team. I do not think carrick or scholes have really been good enough in key times when united have been up against it, and it leaves our defense exposed
dannysoya LOVES USAIN BOLT – you bash on how awful young is, when compared to nani, yet what we have seen from nani has been no better than young. And the demands Nani wants, is not worth it. Nani does not track back, he is moody, and we have seen very little progress from the guy since he arived in 2007
lucky we got the win.Although we r not playing free flowing football we grind out wins and that’s good enough for me.young rily needs to up his game.dont know who’s worse;him or downing for lfc.We can only get better and hopefully SAF gives more playing time to cleverley,anderson and powell.top of the table.1 united!!!!
@Wayne
Spot on. Frustration is one thing. Calling out players and Sir Alex on a regular basis is another. But calling for the sack of Young, Scholes, Giggs, and Sir Alex each week is nothing but a troll.
And as obvious as it appears that Anderson and Cleverley bring more energy to the game, the CB situation – no subs – would explain why Sir Alex wants a down tempo game.
I hope Young scores 3 this week from Scholes and Giggs.
United will always attract plastics. Remember that.
The picture at the top of this article gives the lie to those jibes about “fat” Anderson – a visible six-pack.
Why are there only reactions after wins?
I think wee toms ligament is right..
Scholes is still our best passer. However, i think we need to switch to a three man midfield to accomodate him.. At 38 he cAnt be expected to do all the running.. A midfield of fletcher scholes ando/cleverly would work very well at cutting out the midfield lapses i feel.
Our wingers havent set the epl alight this season so we could play the diamond once more..
For west ham,
Ddg
Smalling rio evans evra
Carrick
Anderson cleverly
Rooney
Rvp welbeck
Jones in place of rafa to counter west ham’s long haired pillock on set pieces..
Laughing whenever you criticise a frankly abysmal performance and the next thing that comes out of some people here is that you are a troll or muppet or stuffs like that.
Listen to yourself, what I think you lots don’t like hearing others opinion, the self righteous I am always right mentally.
Telling you Giggs and Scholes needs to do a Gary Neville doesn’t make us plastics……. It shows we have better eyes and a little bit of courage than you to say it without being afraid of being called a plastic or troll.
Note: wayne
I’ve posted a few comments about Young and have to concur with Scott, he’s not United material. Or rather, he does little to nothing to justify a starting place. I’ve heard plenty of folks say that he tracks back, his positional sense is good, etc. but nothing to validate him as an attacking winger. Nani, almost counter-intuitively, is more selfless a player when he’s filled with confidence and playing weekly. He tries to earn his spot back with tricks and goals when he’s been out a while, and really just ends up hurting his chances. Give him a solid run and let him lay claim to that left wing spot.
Am I the only one who wouldn’t mind seeing Evra get a run on the left wing as well? His attacking play, even these past two seasons where he’s been generally poor, has been very impressive. His crossing, dribbling, and passing is good. He has been a pretty poor defender recently. I’d get rid of Young, bring in Baines, and let Evra and Nani handle the left wing. (Welbeck/Rooney if need be.) I know it’s kind of a ridiculous idea, but I’d love to see Evra as our left winger, if only for a spell.
mansuy united
Its not a bad idea, in fact its great. Play Buttner at LB and Paddy in front am sure they will compliment each other like Rafa and Valencia. Young is struggling
There is NO excuse for not starting Anderson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ando and Chicharito were the one to bring on the attacking punch required, but it does seem that RvP looks tired, may be he needs a rest in midweek before eventually bring called back for the weekend. However Chicharito is best played super-sub, as the last time he started he gave nothing while coming on from the bench seems to energize him.
I find the support for De Gea as the #1 keeper inexplicable. He is an average keeper at best, constantly unsure and out of position. He makes saves he should be falling on with his feet and general lacks any authority in his box. Lindergaard is the superior keeper.
Wouldn’t call Scholes one of our most effective players this season. Not in terms of the defending he does. Or I should say, doesn’t do.
Fergie has to strike the right balance in that midfield. Because we either play a winger system with either Scholes or Giggs in midfield or a diamond with Tom, Anderson and Fletcher in it.
@Saurabh —> Lad, that’s exactly what people were saying on here before we went to Anfield and Stamford Bridge. We managed to beat Liverpool even though they were in cup final mode as per usual, and we put 2 past Chelsea within 12 minutes at Stamford Bridge, They came back into it but we held on for the win. The point I’m making is we can perform when we need to. The problem we have now is a phenomenon that affects so many clubs… we are winning games we worry about the most, and struggling against the weaker teams.
Yes, City put 6 past us just over a year ago, but everyone seems to forget the team we had out, and the fact that when we went down to 10 men after Evan’s red card, we had exactly 2 real defenders on the pitch, and no options on the bench. It was hard enough to imagine even a draw when it was 11 v 11, but when we lost Evans it was over. I actually wish fletch hadn;t scored, because as soon as he did, the players pushed forward looking to try to get back the 2 goals that separates us and we were caught out very badly. 3 of City’s goals came in the last 5 minutes of the game, when our ten man thrown together team were run ragged. It sucked, but it was predictable as soon as Evans went off
What annoyed me to no end was how Fergie took the pace off the team when we were beating City 3-1 at the Etihad in the FA Cup. Had he not done that, we were looking at putting 6 passed them too, but instead Fergie decided to play defensively and they almost pulled it back to 3-3 instead. But then again, it’s end product that matters.
But ye, don’t worry too much about the game against City. We can beat them, we have the players, and we have the team. The team I hope we can put out is…
DDG; Evra, Evans, Rio, Rafa; Young, Anderson, Cleverley, Valencia; Rooney, RvP
With Chicharito, Scholes and Nani the subs I’d like to see come on.
bayoRed.
There is every excuse for not starting Anderson.For starters he is at best an thirty minute player.
For the love of God do not start Anderson at West Ham.
parryheid, he *was* a 30 minute player, last time we saw him start, but you have to ask yourself when that was. Haha.
calebkzh.
maybe because it was thought he could improve on the 15 minute appearance he got against ten men Arsenal.
Chicharito should start. You cant compare him to the others or just say he doesnt do it from the start. He gets no service when he start. We have been starting matches poorly. He gets to play when we are chasing the match and what does that show, the team has more urgency and they will try and get the ball to the strikers. It isn’t good just saying he is good as a sub, I would like him to be given the same opportunities as the others then we can make a good comparison. The game is a bit faster when we are down or going for the win.
kk @ 14:52: “Chicharito should start. You cant compare him to the others or just say he doesnt do it from the start. He gets no service when he start.”
Also, he often starts in games NOT featuring RVP and TheWayneBoy so that, in-and-of-itself, means he’s playing with second-stringers.
To get the best out of Chicharito, SAF needs to play an “attacking diamond” with TheMexicutioner up-front, TheWayneBoy and RVP in the hole, and KagawaBunga linking midfield with attack. Playing Anderson or Cleverley in the midfield doesn’t hurt, either.
Our wingers are all poor,they should have a goal scoring threat + scholes and Giggs spoil the whole midfield,we play against fast teams and scholes just stares at people going past him.
And everyone knows man utd wont win the champions league,our group just makes people have a little hope but if we don’t look competetive to any big team.juventus would do us more ham than they did to Chelsea because Chelsea play better than us and no one can argue about that & I will also state that SAF may have paid the officials that match
Tope99 wtf you rambling on about ffs correct me if i’m wrong but Utd are top Rent Boys were? and did you miss the game when Utd went to the bridge and won.Oh i’m fairly sure Utd are through to the next round of the CL and Rent Boys on the brink of elimination.Relying on a washed up trannyboy who wouldn’t get a sniff at OT a manager who comes right out of a Faulty Towers episode and a owner who is fucking clueless
Yeah i’m really worried about the Rent Boys solid all the way through
wayne – Don’t even bother mate. As you know I used to get vexed on here but it isn’t worth the fucking energy pal! Ha Rentboys better than United. They are fucking dogshit and miss Terry, Lampard, Drogba, Kalou, Malouda, Alex, Boswinga badly. Most of the aforementioned are shit BUT they were winners. Current Chelsea side are a bunch of fucking fags and I am getting seriously tired of Martin Tyler and his ridiculous “3 Amigos” comment for Mata, Oscar and “Azaar”. Only one of them is even fucking Spanish. Also every cunt saying “Oooh Madrid are SO good”. City battered them second half and they got done at Betis on Saturday.
lexxy the red cheers pal cos my opinion differs from wayne im some sort of troll.we dont always have to agree and ill say it how it is.im not happy withthe current level of performances and some players just arent playing up to standard.for some reason wayne thinks im being negative.ill be there on wednesday cheering on the lads hoping for a win but hopefully a win with style and conviction that gives me hope for a derby game coming up that could literally decide the title.
Young should NEVA have been bought! The concept of team depth, is about having players who can put in a shift, when asked to eg. Chicha, Ole, Oshea etc. If we are 2-0 down, if you were the coach, would u even consider putting in Young to do anything?? The very best wingers(Ronaldo, Ribery, Neymar) don’t track-back, so its not something we can use as an reason for playing him as a winger. He’s just an upgrade of Downing which really isn’t sayn much! Y oh Y, dnt we jus get real players, and start challenging fo Europe again!? To truly honour Fergie we need 1more CL-his Holy Grail! Get Nani and Kagawa fit again, PLAY them in the Diamond, and give our superior front line good service….GAME OVER! We’l kill ev1!
Right on point Scoot as always, To all the Asley Young bashers, he did pretty well last season and added widht to our wing with plethora of options whit his crossing abilities and goals which contributed a lot last season, his not recaapture his form this season and looks below par but will get their with a little bit of push and competition from Nani and Danny, Rafael has improved in leaps and bounds this season and i can say is our best in defence with exception oif Evans and Vida this season. My real concern how we start games this season looking ordinary and below par only to be alert after going down which is bad for a long term prospects of winning the league and other competitions this season.
