Definitely curious to see how they set up Fenway Park for soccer in the Celtic/Lisbon game. Can't do anything about the stench of Red Sox fans, though....

I'd like to see a little more passing from macheda and a little less doing too much, as it were

Stupid Boston fans wearing their Celtics basketball jersey to support Celtic...even though Celtic is Scottish, not Irish. Morons.

Philadelphia will not be able to match this pace for 90 minutes. No way.

Sorry. No offense intended. Here on ESPN 2 the scoreboard says "Man U 0-0 PHI."

I just think Gabriel is growing to the task just showing his class and what Sir Alex identified

Decent start to the match although Kiko and Cleverley are struggling to get involved in the game

Kiko seems to run offside an awful lot...

I was worried the effort wouldn't be there but Philly really really seem to want to win.

with cleverley and scholes in the middle there don't seem to be any protection

Paul Scholes one of the best midfielders in the world EVER gets a yellow card. Nuffing new there then.

Kiko deserves some jip off sir Ryan... And he better be listening to him too!

@The EvilDog
its not that bad mate, i still think United will score 4 or more.

Well impressed with Wellbeck, he looks like he could be something at OT, love the way he comes in from the left and does his work out wide. Macheda is another story, Im not so convinced as I wasn't at any time last season. I think possible Macheda is suited to slower more thought out football, Seria A maybe. Scholes runs the show. Evans looks awkward when the balls played to him and its time to move it along the back line.

just an easy going run out. Much more intensity in this game compared to the celtic game which at times was a stroll. Union have done well and probably deserve a goal.

Danny has been very impressive!! Kiko and Obertan can be pretty infuriating both trying far to hard

Drew Vader July 22, 2010
Obertan and Macheda are struggling....


And I'm a huge Cleverly fan I admit, but I honestly think he is going to be a cracking little player. If not for us then for some other lucky prem side.

@Goat what you mean mate i think is.... Fredrico is being groomed for the Champions league games. As you say in your post not for the the EPL.
Its all planning and forward thinking.

FFS the game is two different situations EPL and Cl, Sir ALEX I think knows this dont you.

@Red Scot
He could well be being groomed for Champions League but its a big expense just grooming a player for 10 odd matches per year and when it comes down to it will he be happy with that arangement. Hes a clever player but is he trying to be too clever too soon.

we should send macheda out on loan he has got nothing what is he good at? our worst stricker

wellbeck is really showing him up, he's been involved in everything, macheda is overrated because of one goal imo

To give him credit chaosred, he is a worker, hes brave and has good possitional sense. A bit like Berbatov his style deceives.

@bigphil2003

Me too he's the reason i was against the idea of spending shite loads on a new right back. The press keep linking us with right backs (lahm for one) but im more than happy with Rafael. Personally i think hes better than Lahm.
