Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 2:28pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
A draw today wouldn't necessarily be a bad result-it's just that it's not what we expect. However we should play to win (dunno if Fergie will choose his squad and tactics to do just that:remembering Danny Welbeck). We also need to remember that it's been over a decade since we last lost to Spurs.Im thinking they just about owe us one and it should come at some point (I mean a Spurs victory over United). But I believe we can nick this,barring any mishaps from the technical area. Remember that City have Chelsea,Newcastle and Arsenal to play.So I'm expecting them to drop points along the way. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by chamotex(m): 4:20pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
I don't think Citeh will drop too many points, especially at home. I'm not too sure about this game to be honest, it depends if the REAL Manchester United turn up. Defensively, we've been conceding some poor goals recently and we will be punished if we slip up at the back today. Let's hope Evans and Rio woke up on the right side of the bed today. Our away form this season has been outstanding though . . . I think we've only lost to Newcastle away from OT this season |

and welbeck starts |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 4:31pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
afrodoc: it's inevitable. . . .i am sure hernandez went to mexico or some obscure country to play internationals. he would be jet lagged. . . . .no gareth bale for tottenham so no real reason to start da silva twins. anderson on the bench makes me happy. he's finally back. by next week, we should have everyone back apart from fletcher, vidic and the best player on the planet(bebe). |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by chamotex(m): 4:32pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
afrodoc: You expect Welbeck to be benched? I didn't expect him to be playing this many games though. What has Berba done to Fergie though? Is there something we don't know? Cos even Chicharito gets ahead of him . . . I'm sure if/when Owen gets back to fitness, he'll be ahead of him again. Starting to feel sorry for him. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc(m): 4:43pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
chicharito might be jet lagged like coogar said,if not i would hav preferred hm to start dis match.i am a fan of welbeck like my posts hv shown but i think dis would hv bin chicharito's kind of game,dts not to say welbeck cant perform o. fergie's thinking on d berba issue is dt rooney n berba together gives u know no threat making runs in behind d center of defence.dey both like to drop deep n link up play thereby squeezing up play n limiting space for our midfielders.so in his mind its usually rooney or berba playing with welbeck or chicharito |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 4:50pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
chicharito played against columbia in[b] mexico [/b]on wednesday and spent 72 mins on the pitch. obviously, he musta been jet-lagged and since welbeck only played @ wembley. . . .hernandez would be more tired than welbeck. it makes sense. . . .if things go awry, hernandez can always come on and do the damage. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by ritchboy(m): 4:57pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
No Parker, VdV, Bale and Modric(left-wing?)? If you don't beat Spurs 10-0, I'll go on hunger strike! |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 4:59pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
ritchboy: i would have preferred if the big players of spurs are playing to be honest. united players have a way of underestimating their opponents. . . . .you would see them on the pitch now with a false braggado that they only need to turn up and win the game 4-0. tottenham's rookies might surprise us. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by chamotex(m): 5:02pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
afrodoc: I agree but remember in last season's CL final at Wembley . . . Berba didn't even make the squad, Owen was drafted in instead. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 5:04pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
chamotex: fergie n his brain-farts. . . .there was absolutely no reason to start 2 strikers that day. barca are better than us. start with rooney as a striker, frustrate barca till the 70th minute in a flat 0-0 draw. then introduce chicharito to come run at the tired mascherano and pique and we woulda gotten a chance. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by chamotex(m): 5:11pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
Berbatov is not even on the bench again today |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 5:18pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
danny welbeck deciding to do it alone again with plenty of options he can pass to. lay it to the wingers n make a run to the box and pick their crosses. the boy's football sense is beginning to piss me off. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by dayokanu(m): 5:50pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
Phil Jones must have lost his virginity to Lennon This is disgraceful, How can this guy be a top team defender |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc(m): 5:50pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
carrick's passing n decision making has bin poor so far |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by dayokanu(m): 5:54pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
Thankfully Fergie is warming up Da Silva for Jones already |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by MrTA(m): 5:55pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
Carrick is having a shocker. and I think I want Jones off for Rafa. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc(m): 5:56pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
rooney baba niyen! |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc(m): 5:57pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
yes carrick n jones hv bin d worst so far in a poor team performance |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by MrTA(m): 5:58pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
Im more shocked we scored a header direct from a corner. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by chamotex(m): 6:01pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
dayokanu: Half time 1-0 Our front four have been poor. Jones is still in the dressing room. Is Nani on the pitch. Adebayor is a bloody liar . . . he tried to deny the handball even though we can see the white mark on his arm. Smh |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 6:02pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
afrodoc: carrick n jones abi rooney n welbeck. . . . how do you watch football? tottenham's energetic mid-2 are putting pressure on scholes/carrick. . . .not even allowing them to look up and play a pass. rooney n welbeck move too further away when scholes is with the ball. one of them should be making himself available for a forward pass to at least make scholesy's passes unpredictable. there's no movement at all upfront. . . .they are too static. another ashley young assist. 1 Like |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by chamotex(m): 6:02pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
Mr_TA: We've scored 13 headers this season . . . it shouldn't be a shock |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 6:05pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
chamotex: how many have we scored directly from corners? i think this is the 2nd goal all season. our corners have been poor. tottenham would come out more in the 2nd half and i think welbeck should make way for chicharito later. the midfield 2 should be helped and scholes/carrick should be trying to find passes that would isolate nani with assou-ekotto or young with walker. assou-ekotto is just having a stroll on the pitch - he's now the berbatov of left backs. he could play that position with a cigarette in his mouth. what a class player he's become. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 6:08pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
Even if Hernandez didn't go anywhere,Welbeck was going to start ahead of him. Meanwhile,our defending has been comical. Carrick is returning to his ways that made me write him off months ago.Danny Welbeck?Nuff said. He's the Man United equivalent of dayokanu:a dunce. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc(m): 6:10pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
@coogar how do YOU watch football? carrick has bin so careless with d ball in sensitive areas and modric,assou ekotto and lennon are taking turns to sodomise jones who is one more ill timed tackle away from a red card. anyway i dont blame you after all torres is ur football god |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc(m): 6:12pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
guess what d football studio is highlighting clips from the 1st half showing phil jones poor tackles n poor decisons |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by chamotex(m): 6:13pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
Mr_TA: I thought you were talking about headed goals . . . my bad. Our wing play's been non existent though. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 6:13pm On Mar 04, 2012 |
afrodoc: carrick is not the prioblem. . . . lack of movement is the problem you can tell how many times scholes has waved his hands at the front four from their lack of movement towards him. welbeck can't just sort his head straight. rooney was piss-poor minus the goal. the wingers haven't been isolated in a one on one situation. without a team mate making himself available to receive a pass, you put the player in possession in confusion. he either makes the wrong pass or he waits n waits till he's dispossessed. welbeck keeps running away from the ball immediately scholes is in possession. rooney runs with welbeck and they leave a vacuum of space between the midfield n the attack. players must make themselves available to the player in possession. i dunno if these boys don't watch football. with busquets on the ball, like 7 players run towards him and he has options to pick a pass everytime. if they run away from him, he wouldn't find a pass to pick. hopefully, fergie would correct that. 1 Like |
