RuuDie: I'm mostly glad with the comeback... perhaps this will instill much needed confidence in the guys and put a bit fear in other teams.

The return of Fletcher is a big, big blessing... its like he never left; the calmness, composure and experience he adds to a relatively "lean" midfield helps a lot.

On to the next one.
Many positives. But not too good to have lost Rafael, Valencia and Welbeck from the team that has been winning games for us. Let's hope RVP is fit to return.

dademola: carrick has been outta action for a while! Hw can u add carrick to dt list?? D fact dt u like jones in mF doesnt mean it shud be at d expense of carrick! Get it; jones IS NOT A MIDFIELDA!!!!
He is still very young, so he can be converted. Just compare our defensive play today with the last few games. We have been preventing attempts on our goal. Today we conceded two, they hit our bar at 2-2, they bullied us around many times.

My Carrick blame has to do with the way he played. Choosing to run back instead of tackling head on. It was too nervous today.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:49pm On Dec 26, 2013
Rooney, one assist and a goal. Was very involved in the lead up to the 3rd goal. Passed from the deep and already arrived the 18 box to force an own goal. He always punish Hall City.

Rooney is now 150 EPL goals for Man United. 2nd behind Henry in the most league goals for one club.

Worst defending I have seen in years. This is a case for Phil Jones. I didn't see what Carrick came to do.

Leaving Janujaz till the was a mistake. Young should have stayed instead.

I might just add Carrick to the list I have penciled Giggs, Ferdinand and Vidic.

Valencia got a stupid red card when he knew Welbeck was struggling and we had a slim lead.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:33pm On Dec 26, 2013
Welbeck has been struggling. We are virtually short one.

Our defence is useless. Carrick is running back to joing the last four instead of dealing with threats.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:23pm On Dec 26, 2013
It's Carrick for Young. Last sub.

Welbeck is now clueless in handling final balls.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:18pm On Dec 26, 2013
Can we have Kagawa for Janujaz now?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:17pm On Dec 26, 2013
Rooney should not be taking free kiicks from the right side. Janujaz should take it there.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:10pm On Dec 26, 2013
Chicharito in for Fletcher. Rooney drops to to CM.

Velencia gets his 5th yellow and goes out of the Norwich game.

Chicha filed to pass to Welbeck to set up one on one with the goal keeper.
3-2 to Man U.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:02pm On Dec 26, 2013
Our defence is better with Jones in either CD or CM.

Wish there was RVP on the bench now.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 2:51pm On Dec 26, 2013
Janujaz doesn't pass.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 2:11pm On Dec 26, 2013
2-2 Rooney power volley from 22 yards.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 2:00pm On Dec 26, 2013
What is happening? We are down 0-2 inside 12 minutes. Why Evans not concentrating?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 1:47pm On Dec 26, 2013
I am not happy about Jones injury. He has been so wonderful in both midfield and defence. I hope nothing happens to our defenders and CMs again. Smalling, Evans, Rafael particularly.

meracool: This is good News for Me So far today....
Very good news.

Some of the guys getting space on the bench will have to give way. Negative part of it. We won't be having Nani, Janujaz, Kagawa, Young, Chicharito, every time on the bench. But Moyes should understand it has to be Giggs who shouldn't be on the bench at all when many people are fit.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 9:17pm On Dec 25, 2013
GOOD NEWS: Robin Van Persie & Michael Carrick have returned to full first team training and could be available for selection for the Boxing Day game at Hull City.

..................................................................................................

Carrick should start from the bench so that he doesn't infect the team with his sluggish game. I really am enjoying the fast pace football we are playing now.

RVP should play in place of Welbeck, but he should try and touch the ball more than he has been doing so far this season.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:54pm On Dec 23, 2013
0-0

We are 8 points behind. Almost same effort needed to get to top 4 is needed to get to the top. So tight.

dayokanu: Thats why you need to watch games. Kompany is one of the main culprits for goals conceded when he's not getting turned inside out by Osvaldo, he is scoring own goals himself
^^^
I see no correlation with my comment.



Meanwhile, Kompany is scoring too. He scored at both ends last weekend. You have only concentrated on the own goal. Who doesn't concede an own goal?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 2:07pm On Dec 23, 2013
dayokanu: Januzaj role model is Ashley Young

His diving style is very similar

https://i.minus.com/iIB9WaCiDexoC.gif
I don't blame Janujaz at all. He was kicked too much in the match as in previous matches. This incidence happened just after he was denied a penalty. It is better to jump when you see you marker appearing to aim at you for a kick, rather than stand and get a heavy kick which will send you out for 6 months. He was simply protecting his much promising career.

I eally didn't think he was looking for a free kick. I think he was avoiding to get being kicked. You have to pity the poor lad on the number of kicks he gets. There is what is called trauma.

SailorXY: If we collect all the points from now till January (which we should if we are serious coupled with the fact that we have 'winnable' fixtures this Christmas) including the Spurs game of course, we will be 3rd or 2nd by second week of January.
One game @ a time still... & Moyes still can't be fully trusted with his selections & formation. Let's hope he's turned the corner
I still expect at least an above average midfielder to come in this January
You just got me nervous.

Make we do am one at a time before my body go dey hot. This one na unnecessary pressure for me. grin grin

I think we will get there, but my calculation is aiming at a later date- February, March. However, I will be very optimistic for an earlier date should we get 100% with Hull and Norwich.

afrodoc: I think you are very right.
City should be playing Lescott and Demichelis from now on, i as a United fan would not mind that one bit
shocked shocked shocked

If City win more games with Kompany, then he is the best for them at the rear.

May be he pushes high. A defender who pushes high is more likely to conceded goals, but even more likely to get his entire defence line (plus midfielders) to help the forward players.

dayokanu: Kompany played 2 of the 6 CL games and in those 2 games City conceded 3 goals

In the league with Kompany playing 90 mins no single clean sheet
You have deliberately refused to mention he had one clean sheet. He conceded 3 goals against Munich and got a clean sheet in a certain 3-0 win at away.

I have also mentioned that City are bad defensively so I am not really part of the argument. I only came in when you said City conceded 10 goals in UCL, and it appeared though Kompany played all matches.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:27am On Dec 22, 2013
One more thing that impressed me was Smalling first touch of the ball under defensive pressure. He doesn't panic and kick away.

Things are getting better.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:22am On Dec 22, 2013
dayokanu: Kompany led defence conceded 10 goals in cl group phase this yr. One of the worst defensive records along the remaining teams.
I don't have the stat, but I think Komapany has been injured for some time until now.

charlesazeh: Kemi Olunloyo is the daughter of a former Oyo state governor, Victor Omololu Olunloyo and below is what she said about Pastor Adeboye.

Cultist and Gay Pastor PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE will be in Ibadan Monday. Since he is coming to leave my city with his CURSE, I hope his private plane crashes on take off at Alakia if curses rain that day. Post a comment and try disrespecting my views on my page and you will see the block button fast. Do you think Adeboye is an overstretched modern cultist who sells pure water, bread, schools with N635,000 a term tuition filled with cocaine addicted children and simply turned his congregation into religious bondage? The church is a business and not a place to fool and lie others.

The bold part got me thinking. There appears to be something between them. Do they know each other before?
