It was a smalling mistake that cost us but seriously we rarely looked like puttin one in the back of the net. Another thing, wtf is it with starting Park in a game like that? Surely valencia or young would have been the better option.

Heres to hoping theres a miracle at the toon.

Ahh well thats what we get for dropping an 8 point lead ffs!

I don't know why we started Park. The guy is past it now and needs to be moved on in summer. We never win when he starts.

This will hopefully be the wakeup call we need to spend some money in the summer. Kagawa for Park would be a start, and a bit more energy in the middle.

Oh well, we ain't done yet. Still two games to go.

I know United don't have a history of signing Germans, but Sahin from Madrid would be a terrific acquisition, still very young, bags of talent & technical ability, unfortunately Mourinho seems to be against giving him a run ahead of the likes of Granero

We need to sign a couple of high quality mids and some wide backs. We have 5 decent central defenders, and one semi-decent wide defender (Evra), giving us a choice between dross and playing our centre backs out wide.

That was the best part of the whole game! :D

Honestly, we got exactly what we deserved for the team we named and the way we approached the game.

Mancini's expressions were hilarious. He could clearly be seen saying "che cazzo voi!" to SAF, then his yelling of "vaffancullo" when Nasri almost sealed it in the 88th minute was a pisser. :lol:

Anyway, Utd's problem is their weak as piss midfield. They have nobody who can take the game by the scruff of the neck and dominate it. Scholes is a good passer of the ball, but that isn't enough. Carrick is a ghost.

SAF needs to buy two quality central midfielders. He has good wide players in Nani and Valencia (I have no idea why he didn't start, ridiculous) but absolutely zero in the centre of the park.

Bacon face didn't start Valencia and Welbeck because he wanted to park the bus and play for a draw. He failed.

Our problems all stem back to the Glazer takeover. They have taken an absolute motza out of the club to cover their interest bill and feather their own nest, money that would have otherwise been available for transfet spending (among other things). The sooner United are rid of the seppos the better.

You want people to think your some big city supporter but by only showing up on here when your winning. You failed.



Uniteds problem in midfield is energy. At the start of the year when Ando and Cleverly started well we destroyed teams. When they got injured we had to rely on two mids who are technically awesome but do not have that enrgetic buzz in mid anymore.

So we are left with a choice, play 442 and watch them get exposed, or 451 and leave Rooney up front on his own. Neither are good options.

I think its time we spent some money and replaced some of the older players. Knocked out of Europe early, no options in the big games. Sort the mid. Our defence and attack is already one of the best around, so we are one or two players away from City crying on the telly again.

Sahin may be a good shout, but if he can't get in to Reals mid in front of Khedira then maybe not, i don't know, i have not studied Reals season.

We'll end up buying someone from the prem. though. That or France.
