The Manchester United Thread

Think Rooney's been quite good, putting himself about, finding himself pockets of space, but set pieces been wank and has to finish that chance.

Good end-to-end game this :)

His passing has been poor. And his lack of closing down players running at our back for is frustrating resulting in them having 2 good efforts. And what was he doing when through with the keeper? Should of berried that or at least squared to Mata for a tap in. Suppose it's how our seasons gone in front of goal.
 
not really get the def sorted and you dont need a world class keeper just a good 1 but having a world class 1 helps
Agreed, interesting to note United have got to the Semis of EL with Romero in goal. So De Gea is not to vital to the team as he once was. It mustn't be forgotten however, they haven't lost him until he is actually sold and we all know what happened last time.

Pretty much, swap with Navas or whatever and they're still good. They had best defensive record in the league 2 years in a row now, and De Gea heroics had little to do with it. It's not Moyes days anymore when he singlehandedly kept them from finishing far lower lower than 7th.

Dudes like Schmeichel and saves you 18/20 points a season.

And how many did you go through after Schmiechel before you dropped on Van Der Sar? Even given Mourinho's negativity I think he'll be a far bigger loss than what many seem to think. Obviously, a 'keeper is only as good as what's in front of him but still the drop off from De Gea to anyone else man .... We don't see much of Neuer but if there's a better goalkeeper in World footie he must be one **** of a player.
 
Has Romero even had one striker worthy of being called 'world class' to play against in the EL?
 
Oh Herrera. Just as Ive been with most in praising you to damora you go **** out and turn your back.

Poor that.
 
What the **** happened? I just went out for 10 minutes and things turned to ****. Typical United.
 
What did he put out a full strength team for I'll never know.
 
A fluke deflected strike and **** poor defending from Smalling!

Thought Herrera's 'defendeing' was far worse personally.

Yeah, maybe Smalling's positioning could have been better. But the deflected first ..... NEVER turn your back on the play. That was **** poor.
