What a weird game this morning. Both teams intent on out-inepting each other. Some pretty poor defence from both teams, and some absolutely woeful misses. But we got the right result, despite playing pretty poorly.

And I'll never forget that Torres miss. Right in front of the Stretford End. The only place it could have been worse for him was right in front of the Kop.

It was nice. I was just settling down for a stressful 10 mins of more United midfield rubbish then he missed.

Nevermind. :lol:

Chelsea played well, United were average, yet we won 3-1. Can't argue with that!!

That miss is the stuff of legend.

Gotta love beating Chelsea by that score and playing average to boot.

Shithouse performance against Norwich, but we escape with a 2-0 win. We really need Vidic back. Our young defenders are good and have loads of potential, but Vidic is an absolute rock at the back, and a calming influence on the whole team, which is what we need.

The problem with the flying start we had is that it's so easy for the players to begin thinking that will happen every week, all they need do is turn up. We're now discovering that isn't the case.

Vidic, Smalling and Cleverley should all be back after the international break, so as long as we don't get any more injuries during the internationals we should start looking more solid again.

Midfield is the problem. For whatever reason we are not protecting the defence.

Plus having Evra and Valencia as fullbacks is the stuff of nightmares. Neither can position themselves well, they can't defend and they are leaving our centre backs exposed.


Imagine your Rio Ferdinand, your right back has wandered off (at least he is not playing anyone onside!!), you left back has bombed up the field, you midfield is standing there watching players run the past them.
What would you do?

Well mid was still a problem vs the Scouse.

Evra has said he was racially abused by the cheat upfront for the scouse.


Liverpool has said that anyone who accuses a liverpool player should be banned then started spreading lies about him. All very classy from the same club that want to sh*t on the smaller clubs by taking tv money way from them. :roll:


Anyways, 0-0 at HT in the champs league, need to pick it up now.

are you writing arsenballs off too? no nasri no fabregas no hope, enjoy relegation lol
Relegation? Lol, Before you talk about Football, learn a few things. We've won 6 of our last 7 and are coming 7th just a couple points from top 4.

And yes of course we're not going to win the league this season. Neither is United or Chelsea. City are THAT much better than the 2nd best team, noone is touching them unless they kill each other in the dressing room while celebrating with one of Balotelli's fireworks.

Credit where credit is due though City were excellent against pissweak opposition and Silva is by far the best player in the EPL.

City weren't just brilliant, United were absolutely horrible and deserved a thrashing.
Silva isn't the best plater in the EPL by far, but he is certainly in the top three at least in the premier league.
