Another disjointed performance. LvG has to take the blame here. Setup the team wrong and they don't have any incisiveness. Spending 150m and putting out performances like that is unacceptable.

I dont like the horrible feeling about DDG's future this Valdes signing gives me.

The way we abuse our defenders ( Me included) With the injuries, chopping and changing we've had to deal with, we've conceded 1 goal less than City/Chelsea. They are still both the clear favourites for the title rightfully. But we have to make a push for the title next season.

Dont call Keky, I heard he went to hug transformer on his way back from St Marys.

Has anyone seen Keky? I hope he's ok. He hasnt been to troll in our thread so just getting a little worried. Hope he's ok not slashing his wrists.

I think LvG has to take the blame for this one.

Shouldnt have removed Falcao.
Young has never been effective on the right. If he was going to sub Shaw, it should have been for Rafa so Young goes back to the left.
Adnan was useless and this is probably not the game to bring him back after being out for a while.
Evans is useless. Maybe should have switched to 4 at the back and removed Evans.

Not a bad draw but should have been so much more. All our defenders are just so unsteady.

Yeah, Young has never been good attacking from the right. He seems to attack better coming from the left so we miss that. I'm just not sure Rafa will handle the stoke attack from that side well though.

Shaw has not been bad at all, unfortunately he's pretty limited in attack but I think he has defended and played ok.

Evans though.

For you to have started the new year on this note, it further confirms my initial fears that you have been cursed from birth.

Quote me again and watch your entire lineage perish in penury and abject poverty!!

Bros, no need to start 2015 like this.

Really starting to worry about Di Maria

Odunharry:
United XI: De Gea, Young,
Jones, Smalling, Evans, Shaw,
Carrick, Mata, Rooney, van
Persie, Falcao


United subs: Lindegaard,
Blackett, Rafael, Fletcher,
Herrera, Januzaj, Wilson

no 352 today thank God

Hmm, interesting. Should dump Evans for Jones in the middle and Rafa at RB. Im assuming Young on the left of midfield.

Apparently the transfer window doesnt open till saturday not today.

Happy Birthday to Sir Alex.

Agba ti de oh

Yeah, i think DDG has won a few already so time for someone else. I'm not his biggest fan but i have no problems with Young. He's been very good most of this season.

--------DDG
Rafa Jones/Smalling Rojo Shaw
-------Carrick Blind
Mata --Rooney--Di Maria

----RvP

Keky:
And Man U won't? Loooool

Are you just upset we're not talking about your yeye team? O ma se oh.

After we waxed your teams ass at home shouldnt you still be in hiding?

Its just one of those games that our strikers have let us down.

Atleast Mata was good and really improved.

I definitely won't sign Falcao this summer based on his performances so far. His wages and sign on fee arent worth it at all.

Tough away match at stoke next.

Our strikers have let us down in the first half. which is disappointing considering how much they cost. We absolutely have to put away one of these chances. We've been the better team in the 1st but meaningless if we dont take our chances. Falcao was poor in that first half.

So Smalling and Shaw are fit. Yet can't get in the lineup

Need everyone to be fit so we see less of this 352 jor.

elampiro:
What are you even saying sef? Someone missed three obvious chances in a match, and it's not the first time and you are here talking, that I shouldn't have mentioned it even though I praised him to high heaven for other things?

When Rooney did a solo great job from midfield moving past three City markers into the box but only failing to shoot, it was over highlighted here as if Rooney committed murder. He only took the wrong option under tight marking. Yet I agreed he should have shot with his left foot instead of trying to beat the last man to his right foot.

Rooney is not pardoned for even half error, and all his good works in a match are forgotten when you guys start focusing only on his slightest errors.

Abeg just park. I don't even know why you had to bring Rooney into this matter.

None of us mentioned above are coogar so no need to imply that. If you want to believe you're the only objective poster here that's fine. No one has pardoned any Falcao errors. But if you don't think stating that he missed 3 clear chances is a bit of an exaggeration then no problem. I hope coogar returns soon so you get what you're looking for.

elampiro:
I dont see both starting together with all our big players fit. Both are DMs and we can't play two DMs. Our creativity will just die.

We can do it because they are both passing DMs and not traditional defensive midfielders. In the bigger games and away from home, I would definitely prefer to play with both.

larride:
What will happen to Carrick once Blind is fully fit? Will he drop to the bench or LVG will pair the both of them?

Guys, drop your opinion.

Its not even up for debate in my opinion. Carrick and Blind both start if both fully fit. I would gladly talk 2 very good passing midfielders in the middle + either Herrera/Fellaini/Di Maria next to them depending on the opposition/ availability of Falcao/rvp/rooney.

LvG says Rojo 2 weeks away, No Fellaini and Januzaj against spurs. Di Maria doubtful as he got injured just before the match .

SailorXY:
Jones will remain & is actually the best CB we have when all are fit

That may be the case but he's probably our most unreliable. fitness and decision making hasnt improved. Also lacks intelligence as a CB. I simply do not trust him.

Also, I really hope LvG is as ruthless with Jones and Evans as he was with Welbeck.

JayKayMaybachz:
na u get the money?

Well no, I'm just saying I dont see the club paying all that money without that amount of productivity.

SailorXY:
can i be that beggar & receive the full cash meant for the acquisition of another striker please

We'll need a striker in the summer because no way will we pay all that cash for Falcao.

elampiro:
A comfortable win today and total dominance. As the game progressed our defenders grew in confidence.

Good all round play at the end with all the starters having a good game.

Falcao did well but he keeps missing clear cut chances. I know he will be great for us eventually.

Wilson keeps regressing.

Let's carry on like this.

Actually, there was a headed chance from a cross we should have done better with. Outside of that.Struggling to remember a clear cut chance Falcao missed today.

The way we defend,Any team with decent strikers will hurt us. Really hope we get it together defensively asap as Spurs are also on a good run and they have enough in attack to really hurt us. Just hope our attack continues to bail us out.

OMG Fletcher.

So far so good. I just dont want to see this when all our defenders are back as we still look ripe for the taking defensively. No looking forward to spurs.

This position Rooney has behind Falcao and RvP is very good for him because while they worry about rvp and falcao, Rooney can just ghost in for the goals. Looking very good.

I dont see Di Maria anywhere?
