O'shea is not good enough. He offers nothing at all going forward, unlike Wes, Nev and Rafael.

Shit game but no injuries and an Owen goal makes it a good day.

ljajic better be much better than tosic because that was hard to watch, poor passing, poor one on ones, pushed around like a child.

Pushed around like a child you say. Just like Rooney late on. Wazza sent him flying and winded him just by a shoulder barge.

The Unbelievable Wayne Rooney

Well Spenlunc I couldn't see the last 8 mins .. but as for the first 82 minutes go ..we were clearly the better team not because we played better but because the malaysian X1 was atrocious...Foster /Kucaszk(in the 2nd half) barely made a save ...Tosic was pure crap.. and Fabio was unimpressive and the funny thing is that the attack from their side was much more prominent then from the right wing ...the introduction of rooney and scholes did ignite us a bit and Anderson should have scored in the 2nd half...but all in all nothing for us to write home about...

I am curious as to who you guys think was our best player today?...it was probably Carrick for me...although he too as well didn't have a perfect game....

good to see neville celebrate the celbr8 wit owen...
the first game he didnt show any reaction to the owen goal at all...
dont kill owen in dressing room nev...hahaha...

porter...shut up!!!
he put one or two nice crosses in the game...gave the tosic to slowly improve...guy like messi come once in a decade...
even ronaldo took two moderate season before becoming what he is today...
the guy is red devil...oshea was not a worldclass player..but he is red and i always stand by him no matter what...

@MUFC RELIGION - don't slate O'shea mate. If you don't remember he was our first choice Rb for most of last season . He was one of our best players during the final weeks of the PL. You can clearly see the difference in him once he started getting a consistent run in the side. His passing,crossing and defending has significantly improved in the last one year.
And to be fair it's only pre-season and they are just back from holidays and it will take a while for the lads to get going.

Oooodz,no worries,mate,I won't do that.Even if I did though,I don't think a slow-moving 15 year old would be too difficult to beat up for you. :)

And one more thing:I don't like seeing anyone slating any United player,but slating O'Shea I feel is the worst thing.O'Shea,along with Fletcher,is my favourite player simply because they are willing to play anywhere as long as they can play for United.Find another player who's played in every position for United in recent times.He did phenomenally well for us last season for us when we needed him when all our right-backs were injured.Plus,he's a Scousebuster. :)

Hi guys, I was at the stadium today. The Man of the Match is between Giggs and Fletcher. Nice to see Owen scoring, his overall passing and movement looks good. The new home kit looks good especially the goalkeeper's jersey.

Anderson's passing was awesome, though he really needs more training in shooting. Giggs played like he is 25 years old. Nani shows some good skills but his decision making still needs to improve. Fletch shows today why we missed him in the CL final. Macheda played well, still have doubt over Tosic's future. Gibson should never play as a left winger in a real match. Kuszack made 2 excellenet saves in the last 10 minutes.

Overall It was a good match practice. They did well under the hot temperature and high humidity. I hope they will play one more game in Malaysia, I just can't get enough of watching Manchester United.
