Wow, simply amazing performance from United. I was definitely not expecting this after the "Baselgate" fiasco.
Passing was superb. We have attempted to do these Barca-style layoff passes all season but theyre finally connecting now. It's reminding my off the 1998-1999 season United style.
Jonny Evans - dare I say perfect game? especially that tackle in the 80th-ish minute, that ought to silence his doubters.
Ferdinand - smart as usual
Fryers - WOW. He;s not too big or strong but what a left foot he has, he has quick feet and is very technical in his tackles. He's definitely one to look out for.
Smalling - meh. He simply wasn't fast enough to keep up with Jarvis.
Jones - the new Hargreaves? I think so.
Carrick - decent performance. It's good that he's staying back and not straying too far forward.
Valencia - Superb. His stats sum up his performance.
Nani - great unselfish play. His stamina's letting him down again though.
Rooney - great game. Amazing passes (we needed more of those on Wednesday). When the second goal came around I stood up and watched in awe. Impeccable technique to score and impossible goal.
Welbeck - movement was good. Needs to improve technique though.
Macheda - same ^
Young - stop floating across the pitch so much!!!
All in all I was very pleased. One of the best open, attractive matches I;'ve seen all season.
