Krayola2:
I'm sure that was the plan coming into the game.

Ferguson: Guys, we have won this 2ce in a row, and a third time would be catastrophic. Rooney. . .make sure u equalize at the last minute. Evra. . .do what u do best, fukc up!!  Go get em boys!!

Man you are flipping Hilarious. . .
Abeg Tell em.

Happy we won . .
Still not convinced though long term. . .

End of. .

Saved. . .

The spirits of Holland. . .

I will be really surprised if we win on penalty. . .

What were we doing far up like that when we were not looking for a goal . . ?

Can u believe that?

Oh! Common Chac. .
That wasn't a punch . .
Just a little nudge in the chest. .
Sure his arm was raised, it wasn't a punch. .

Ballack frustrated Evra into a Yellow.

Ballack is the Man of the match for me despite playing less than 20 minutes.

He brought the swagger to Chelsea

You are having fantasies. .
You better stop wanking over Ballack. . .

Why Deco for heaven's sake?
What kind of tactics are these ?
He's taken off the only meaningful channel of width we have. . .

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=294608.msg4323488#msg4323488 date=1249832007]What kinda football decision is that?
Ballack punched Evra in the face and the ref did not give it?
This is ridiculous.[/quote]Give what ?
What for?
Ref gave an advantage to Rooney on the ball. . .
He could only have given it if you didn't get the ball. .

It's a pity your fellas stopped playing. .

dayokanu:
Ballack is a full blooded German  

A bad ass Motherfucker. I told you in Germany football is a contact game

Where did that come from ?

Didier did very well there. . .

dayokanu:
Where are the Anelka supporters Mr Silky first touch.

Anelka is a waste of space at least today

Goaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllll

What was that from Ballack. . . ?

jalether:
I couldnt ve analysed it any better, took it right out my mouth. you are better off been our manager

Ibime is a better manager. . .

Unbelievable. . .
Ballack for Mikel. . .

Terry's sorted Nani. . .

Game's lively now. . .

Good shot from Nic. .

FBS:
But they did pass amazingly during the pre-seasons?
formations got to change and I mean now?

meanwhile,  . .

GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

CArvalho. 6 mins into the second half.

Good challenge by DD on Foster. You saw it coming.

The opposition was weak. . .
The prem is a different ball game. .

goal!

As a matter of fact, Carllotti is bent on the diamond. .
Just look at the bench. . .

They are not passing as if they are playing together for the first time
They can't pass. . .

The ManU players pass the ball before it gets to them . .
Until you can do that, you are easy to press and dispossess . . .


Now to tactics. .

The four in midfield are just too similar as far as I am concerned. .
Powerful, slow and need a donkey years to pick out a pass. .
Carllotti wants the full backs to provide the width . .
Fergie knows this . . exactly how he stopped Scolari last year and everyone started doing it. . .
Just put Park and Nani on the wings to prevent the full backs from attacking . .
That way you snuff out the width and Drogba becomes less threatening . .
And since we can't pass our way into their defence, we look like a buncha preg women. .

The problem however will be whether Carllotti will remain dogged like LFS and not change or he'll just dump the diamond for good and revert to a 4-3-3 . . .

chamotex:
Half time . . . . . .

Anyone missing Ronaldo?

I think it's premature to say you don't miss Ronaldo after only a game. . .

jalether:
i feel you, we seriously need creativity in that team

what I keep talking about . .

We need a dribbling central midfielder . . . that can run with the ball and pick out passes. .
If we can't get that, we should revert to a 4-3-3 and use width. .
Generally, we are pathetic passers of the ball. . .


What I said all season last year. . .
