berbatov was immense in the first half...you know i'm his greatest critic but i'm not irrational...when i see a good performance i always recognize it

he faded in the second half when wolfsburg spotted that our only danger comes from him - and they decided to attack him more aggressively unableing him to collect the ball and personally i think this is something he should work on it - now if he can produce these perfromances without fading away from matches , every other match i think he can ultimatelly be branded as value for money

the best performance in man united shirt ..at least as far as i'm concerned

had he scored , i would have gotten him a perfect 10

It was live on Ten Sports.i remember that incident where berba presented ando with the chance.i think the whole team can revolve around berbas tricks and flicks which make the opposition defence look silly when they come off like yesterday.

Hi.
Yup.Carlton Palmer irritates me.they need to find someone much better.the ones last night were not bad though.there were also many signal problems.ten Sports is shit.Espn and star are better inspite of Steve Mcmahon being there and most of the panel being Anti United

@AIG : ya Ten Sports signal was shite for the 2 rounds of CL matches so far. but the guys on ESPN-Star(except McMahon) are far better than those on MOTD as we hear King Eric and others telling on here. John Dykes is the best presenter and he is neutral. i think Richard Keys is also the same neutral for Sky Sports. i never miss First Edition. the chemistry between Dykes and Keys is real good.

spot on. John Dykes really is good.i still like Martin Tyler and Andy Gray.they are good together.but they do only the last matches on Sunday or Early matches on Saturday.shebbie Singh makes me laught though.and there is good banter between patrick king and steve mcmahon on football forecast

i really hate steve mcmahon.bloddy dipper.he always critises united.
anyways berba was a class yesterday.happy for carrick he is a great player.
valencia was frustrating in the first half but was better in second.feeling sorry for owen he would have been selected for england.hope he is fit against liverfools.

@AIG : Patrick King Horn irritates McMahon so much. just love it. i think we get the same broadcast of Sky Sports commentators for all the league matches.

Good game. Plus points:

Berba - absolute quality. Especially in the 1st half. Wolfsburg stuck a marker on him in the 2nd half which reduced his effectiveness but he finds acres of space. Utd's midfield still need to learn how to look for him.

Carrick - grew as the game progressed and the goal would have done him the world of good.

Anderson - very impressive at time. Still a little wasteful but looking much stronger.

Evra - just love this guy.

Negatives: None really - apart from the Owen injury. This was still way short of Utd at full pelt but we still could have scored 6. Looking good...

Lads,

I have seen a drastic change in Berbatov this season, he loooks more at home playing for us.

He is starting to contribute and enabling himt o relax and play his normal game! The more goals and assists this guy gets the better he is going to play.

No on can deny that he has fantastic ability to Bring the Ball Undercontrol, Bring Others into play and Hold defenders off with ball at his feet...

I feel the win was justified. We brought all the pressure (as we should, being the home team) and if only we weren't too wasteful in front of goal, the scoreline would have better represented the game.

Personally, I was getting frustrated with the offside trap they were springing. It seemed to work every time. Pretty well disciplined. I do feel that one of the goals that was disallowed wasn't offside and was pretty miffed.

Giggs brought us back with the goal, and I think it was his reaction to it that sums up his experience and class. No over celebration, and I think you can see it at the end of the video above - while Rooney is congratulating him, Giggs waves him away and gives a "Job not done, let's get on with it..." look!

frustrating game yesterday because of all the chances we missed. we should've won by 5-1. still a good win though, team played very well. to think that we're missing hargo, vds etc.. and played like we did yesterday is really incredible. evra, giggs, carrick, ando, valencia were superb. rooney was unlucky to score, he had about 7 shots at goal.

feeling sorry for owen though. it was his chance to play infront of capello, imo fergie shouldn't have started him. he should've been given a rest. hopefully he'll recover quickly, an impact supersub is very vital especially in the PL games when we're drawing/losing.

Sir Ryan instrumental again. Great strike from Carrick, need to see more of that from him. I've always said he can hit a ball sweetly, just as good as Alonso in my opinion.
