Rvp is our best bet for pens. Followed by Rooney ,giggs,scholes.then Anderson,Nani

What did Carrick do wrong now?!!He was on the pitch for about 20 mins and kept things ticking along nicely.

Yeah, Giggs definitely rolled back the years tonight for one of his best performances in a while. Good to see but Im still hoping he retires at the end of this season.

Good to see Nani and Anderson back, hope they catch up to their best form asap.

mbulela: If bought he will be at Selhurst park till the end of the season. That is the only condition in which crystal palace will sell.

I personally don't see much in the kid.

chrisley024: Y r top clubs like Madrid n recently Barca afta DDG?. 'Daily mail' has it dat he's on top of Barca's list 2 replace Valdes n guys r here slating him. Am afraid he might leave cos players bcum high wen it comes 2 Barca's interest in dem.

Ignore the tabloids,they are full of it.

chamotex: This Zaha rumour is gathering pace.
I'd take him ahead of Valencia at the moment.

I'd take myself ahead of Valencia at the moment.

Firstly good to get the 3 points. The most important thing really.

1st half was good, sad that we only had 1-0 to show for it. We really should have been out of sight. I thought Carrick was absolutely excellent particularly in the 1st half. But we were very poor in the 2nd half. Couldnt believe how careless we were and could have very easily drawn that match.

I really hope Nani can get back firing as our other wingers are so poor right now. ALso need Anderson to hit the ground running back to full fitness.

Cant believe Welbeck got the MoTM award. ridiculous.

Thought DDG could have done a bit better with the goal but again the sloppiness from our midfielders tippy tapping in front of our 18 didnt help.

Nani and Anderson back in squad, Rooney reportedly out. Huge game on Sunday. Not really looking forward to it as our defence has been woeful for sometime now.

Any win will do.

Lampard is not joining man utd. Unless he joins this summer

My point is we have conceeded loads of goals without scholes and giggs in the lineup. That would be us covering our ass just because we have rvp.

That's not strictly true, how many clean sheets do we have this season?

I still want a solid midfielder. We're struggling defensively, I wish we went for javi Martinez.

Also I can't wait for nani to be fully fit.

Yay,good to get another clean sheet. Good strong win and happy Hernandez and rvp are banging them in.

StarBoard: Yeah best in the league.
A league that has Petr Cech, Pepe Reina and Joe Hart.
Ask me how line-ups determine that you parry shots to on-coming attackers in successive games.
Ask when the clown with the dodgy beard last kept a clean sheet before ranking him as the best in the division.

Well as good as Hart is he has shown that all keepers have howlers in them not just once but numerous times this season. In fact he has been guilty of the same pushing the ball to oncoming strikers error you blame DDG for numerous times this year. I like Cech though and personally I think Cech is still the best in the division but with Reina, Im sorry but Reina has been awful this season for Liverpool. Infact he's been awful for a while now. DDG is definitely currently better than Reina.

lynxnoon: ehen? ... did they ship to nigeria? . . tried it but wasnt allowed, even with my $ mastercard already attached to my account.
or did u order it from uk?

Sorry, uk based.and apparently no stock now till march.

StarBoard: Elementary keeping suggests Newcastle shouldn't have had the first goal.
Similar to the Swansea goal-parrying to the opposition directly in front of you.

But peeps here were slating Lindegaard after the Reading game.
De Gea is a mediocre keeper, abeg.

Far enough, but ddg has shown heis capable of something special. Al has only shown he can be abit more commanding in his area. for every ddg mistke he has pulled off world class saves lindergard hasnt come close to. Ddg is also younger and if given the chance will only get better and could even set us up for the next 10 years.

lynxnoon: cool
how did u get it and how much?

Ordered from google play on the 4th dec. arrived of the 21st. 16gb £289 + £10 shipping fees. Very slick device. I'm only worried about the glass back. Need a case ASAP.

StarBoard: David De Gea is equally as dodgy as Anders Lindegaard.
He Palmed the ball for Michu to score Sunday.
Did same again today for Toon's opener.
Generally shaky.
Please i Hope the Begovic link is valid.
We Need a decent ans consistent Figure between the sticks.So far none of the two clowns we Parade van help generate any confidence.

Just seen the goals, he was at fault for that one but I'm not having him at fault for michu's goal. It was pretty much a one on one strike and he had to get anything on it, unfortunately it deflected to michu and not Vidic who was in front of it. That was bad luck, but the perch goal was very poor goalkeeping.

Didnt see the match so cannot say much about the performance. very unhappy about conceeding 3 goals at home though.
For those who thought we have the title sown up, its not like we've lost the league with an 8 point lead with a month left in the season is it.

Really enjoying the nexus 4.

Likewise, Merry Christmas all...

RE: Rooney and Valencia. I admit Rooney was beyond awful today. We all know he has those games once in a while but with Valencia its been a pattern for a while now. Everything from decision making to first touch and quality of crossing has been woeful recently and its very frustrating. I really want Nani back. I would prefer to watch Nani stink up the place than Valencia stink up the place personally.

RE: Swansea's goal, Evra was caught sleeping but shouldnt a midfielder have been tracking the Swansea attacker's run considering how deep he made his run from?

On a positive note, Carrick was indeed excellent.


RE: Real Madrid. My main issue is SAF still doesn't think our squad needs strengthening, This is my main worry.

All of you complaining about Nani, I hope you're been enjoying Valencia's performances these few weeks? Worst player on the pitch in our last 3 matches.

Carrick and the whole team were awesome in the first half. some of our play was very very impressive. The passing and movement was possibly some of our best passing and movement in a while. Obviously all that went away in the 2nd half but good to see we kept our heads.

With city beating Newcastle currently it'll be typical of us to drop points in this match.

Let it be known that after they defeat at thy hands of the almighty Bradford, no Hassena fan should ever set foot in this thread again, 'lest they smite us with thy anti-silverware ways.

I definitely understand fergie going for rvp because a world class player with guaranteed goals at the price is simply unmissable especially if the player also wants to join.

Yeah Valencia was our worst player.

Well that's what world class players do. Huge win which I never expected but I did think the performance wouldnirpve with the mobility cleverly gave us and also Ashley young picked a good game to have his best performance of the season. Rvp was quiet but what a winner. Overall a top performance I really wasn't expecting that good a performance. We were very sloppy on defending those city goals mainly the first one were Carrick should really have done better getting to yaya. And then the 2nd goal no one marking the edge of the box is crazy.

Onwards and upwards.

I simply won't watch the match if scholes or giggs start. If both start, then...

We are going to get raped on Sunday.

I missed the match but I've seen the goals. By all accounts our defending was very poor again. I still put that down to our poor defensive midfield cover as has shown for a while now. Admittedly the defence itself could do with some fine tuning and stability. Also Ddg needs to be the number one, the chopping and changing must stop. Ddg vs al performance this season, Ddg has been far better.

I do fear city can and should put 6 past us again.
