And that article was written by a Paul 'Hince'. Predicting Ronaldo will be the player that Manchester United will need to get them to the final this season. Now that's journalism.

Sure didn't he say that missing the penalty isn't a problem because he'll score on Tuesday?

what the fuck was ferguson doing leaving both ronaldo and tevez out yesterday

surely a game of that impotance has to be top priority
he'll be fucking slaughtered if they throw away the league

Starting Silvestre was bizarre as well, given that he's shite and has hardly played in months.
Completely deserve to lose for starting a ridiculous team and following up with ridiculous substitutions.

resting evra for silvestre wasnt the worst change to be honest. his changes and formations in the last few weeks have been bizarre!

 

[oh shit]

united's tactical acumen this season has amounted to buying players for £15m+ to fill up the middle of the pitch, then letting ronaldo, tevez and rooney figure something out up front

it's incredibly effective but a chimp could have figured it out. all about the money

same with chelsea - avram grant is a fucking disgrace, he has no idea what he's doing, no idea how to inspire his players. yet simply because they've spent £200m on some world class veterans they've grinding it out effectively by themselves (and cate)

as soon as either fergie or grant has tried to play 'tactically' this season they've shown themselves up as complete chumps

shanks is rolling in his grave

Playing your best players in their best positions Bill.

Except when Essien is at right back.

Or Ronaldo is at the top of the front 3.

Or Rooney is played on the wing.

Or Anelka for that matter.

Only caught the second half of this on Saturday. When I saw Ronnie on the bench I assumed that he had come off injured, and then when I saw Tevez.. very strange decision. Then taking off anderson and putting on Dong O Shea to hold for the draw? I usually have to hold up my hand to Ferguson's attacking optimism when they succeed, but he got it very very wrong on Saturday. And then the bull crap about the ball heading to Ferdinand anyway, despite admitting that Carrick handled it? Come off it. United got what they deserved, but i'd still fancy them to win the last two.

it was a peno! no doubt

with leaving ronaldo and tevez on the bench, if the handball didnt happen then its 1-1 league wrapped up and players rested for tuesday.

yeah, and if liverpool didn't drop all those points against all those other teams...etc

mind you, if chelsea didn't get that gay peno at anfield, it'd alraedy be over.

Of course, but that was a calculated risk and it backfired. United were losing a game to their only remaining challengers with their two top scorers on the bench. Rooney looked to be getting them out of jail, but instead of killing them off as they normally so effectively do, United shut up shop and were punished. Cue frenzied last minute attempts when they could have been champions long before the penalty was given.

a united fan said to me earlier "roy got alfie back good, though, didn't he?"
i had to disagree.
do united fans really think what roy did was revenge?

Sure Haaland was grand after that, played the next couple of games before he got himself properly injured.

 

[Hector Grey]

payback for what but? roy banjaxed himself trying to snap alfie in half.

 

[ratmonkey]

For not standing still and letting Roy kick him.

 

[oh shit]

for standing over him and accusing him of faking an injury!

 

[Hector Grey]

not like roy to be gobby to other footballers, not at all.

 

[oh shit]

"take that you cunt!"
