Everyone a 4 except VDS -6, Scholes-7, Rooney-5.
They all looked like they had no emotion and no energy.Perhaps too many matches lately coming from behind. You can't keep doing that. Hope they show up for City. |

VDS - did nowt wrong
Sheasy - lacked his usual composure Wes - only defender who turned up at all...still pretty crap; orange Vidic - crap Heinze - sorry all you Gaby enthusiasts, but I hope that's the last time I see him in a European match. Not a top-level full-back. Carrick - never at the races Scholes - absolute class Fletcher - didn't half try, but failed Rooney - not that bad but not very good either Ronaldo - terrible Giggs - even worse Fuck |

VDS 6 - might have done more to prevent the third goal
JOS 5 - some times played ridiculous balls upfield instead of keeping it simple on the ground WB 5 - some good tackles, overall did not make the defense confident NV 5 - still in need of match practice GH 4 - more was expected of him DF 4 - a decent player but when switch to the right wing was an absolute liability to the team. screwed the layoff from Rooney which could have meant an away goal to build upon. Gave possession away with a wayward pass while attacking which resulted in the 3rd goal. Passed to own defenders in tight situations which led to Heinze's disaster. But, still the usual huff and puff, engine, around the pitch. PS 6 - just could not exert himself, perhaps the yellow hanging over his head did affect his performance. MC 5 - stray passes, and slow reaction from a normally efficient Carrick RG 5 - Never really get into the game, opted for the fancy when a simple pass would have suffice. CR 5 - tried too hard to run at the Italians, and with Gattuso double-teaming against him, it was going to be futile. WR 6 - playing the lone striker is not suitable for Rooney, he would have been better if he was paired with Saha or Smith. LS 6 - No impact |

Hello Kevin
|
VDS 7.5 - Kept us in it at 2-0 down. Solid throughout.
OShea 5.5 - Kept giving the ball away Vidic 4.5 - Dominated by Kaka. Lacks match fitness Brown 5 - Not very good Heinze 3.5 - Absolute tripe Fletcher 6.5 - Hard worker, had his moments here and there Carrick 4.5 - Invisible Scholes 6.5 - Our best player on the night, not saying much though Ronaldo 5.5 - Not the 'best player in the world', that's for sure Giggs 4 - Slow Rooney 5 - Isolated, worked his balls off all the same but made little happen against a comfortable Milan defense Saha 5 - Too little too late. Did little of note Shambolic |

VDS - 6: His defenders let him down.
O'Shea - 5: Get ball, hoof. Vidic - 5: Rusty. Struggled with the pace of kaka. Brown - 5: Pretty shit. Heinze - 4: Worst player on the pitch. Carrick - 5: Quite a poor performance. Scholes - 7: Best united player. Worked his socks off. Fletcher - 6: Worked very hard. Giggs - 5: Gave the ball away cheaply on most occasions. Ronaldo - 5: Quite shit. Rooney - 5: Crowded out by the milan defence. Fergie - 4: Why the feck do you wait until 75 minutes to bring on saha? |

VDS 7 - kept United in it..with little help from his back four
OShea 5 - gave the ball away a too much Vidic 5 - Too rusty. Missed Rio badly. Brown: 1 - He get one for just being on pitch. Useless Heinze 5 - Terrible first half. Gave away the ball. Caused the second goal with stupid pass into our box. A liability like Silvestre at center half. Stepped up second half but the damage was done. Sillvestre would have done better than him tonight at left back. I'm certain. I still feel he is our best left back on recent evidence. That injured Frenchman..... Fletcher 7 - one of few to come out with a little credit. worked his socks off Carrick 4 - Poor game. Out classed. Scholes 7 - best United player on pitch... Ronaldo 4 - awful touch, sloppy passing..His worst United game of the season Giggs 0 - He was the captain. showed no leadership no drive. Couldn't pass, control the ball or beat a man. Worst game of his career imo... Rooney 5 - why, why, why do we keep isolating him on his own against arguably the best defence around? Worse still why the fuck did he go for a bicycle kick when the logical thing as to head the ball Management: 2 We were going to have a go eh? Lined up defensively, Rooney on his own, standing off rather than closing down as a team, too deep in our own half. Concede a goal with in 15 minutes . No wonder Milan had all that space to curve us open. Their fullbacks were allowed to bomb forward into acres of space because we lacked natural width and this standing off crap. .. Worse still they waited to 15 mins from time to make a sub? Why not arrest the slide at halftime by bringing on Rio, Saha and Smith for the ineffective Giggs, Carrick and Brown? Questions, questions.... ![]() |

![]() The above summed up Wesley's performance yesterday VdS - Steady in every game, which is a huge improvement from Carroll and Howard or even Barthez but I have seen all three of them pull off some blinders. Better than most keepers around, not in the class of Cech and co. and currently not even Freidel. As I said before, at times I do hope he pulls off a blinder in a game O'Shea - No composure which summed up the defence Vidic - Not match fit. Clearly lacked a yard of pace Heinze - Woeful. Still, huge overreactions by many. Fletcher - Put some effort into it. Which was better than anyone in the team Carrick - Read Brown Scholes - Was the only player looking to do something in the second half. Rubbish first Ronaldo - Worst game of the season, by a country mile Giggs - Poor. Gave away possession far to cheaply Rooney - Out of position, hence rubbish Fergie/Queiroz - idiots. All season long we have attacked our way out to beat teams. Tried to see of the game |

everyone was poor.but it seems that Scholes cant do no wrong in this forum even when he has a bad game .
Apart from last night where weve lost the game in defense and midfield - its fair to say that being over run by well organized midfields has been our downfall in europe over the years. Midfield is where the likes of liverpool,chelsea and Milan win their games in europe. In 99 the only powerful organised midfield we came up against was Bayern in the final. So in ten years we have suffered at the hands of Monaco, Leverkusen, Dortmund, Milan x2, Real x 2, Potro, Benfica, Bayern etc And I believe that scholes inability to control a midfield against powerful opposition has been one of the main factors. Fergies midfield tactics are also a factor. Scholes attacking game and vision is second to none and he played 1 or 2 decent passes last night but that was about it. Pirlo for example is stong in both attack and defense even though he has seedorf and gattuso beside him |

I agree. Milans lack of history, experience and finesse was terribly exposed. Their total reliance on the long ball explains just why Serie A is an inferior, obselecent product compared to the Prem. Bit off far more than they could chew. |

Manchester United Ratings
Van Der Sar - 6: Couldnt really do much more. Heavily let down by team. O'Shea - 4: Bad Defensive Play. Bad Attacking Play. Vidic - 4: Lacking everything. Slow, Out of sorts due to time out injured. Brown - 5: Best defender. Overall poor game though. Heinze - 4: Awful Game. Defending sloppy. Distribution wayward. Carrick - 4: Stage Fright. Couldnt pass or play for shit. Scholes - 6: Best of a bad bunch. Which doesnt say much. Fletcher - 5: Ran about and worked hard enough. Quality was not there. Giggs - 4: Experience didnt show through at all. Played like a newbie. Ronaldo - 4: Why you gotta be Anonymous? Shockingly bad. Rooney - 5: Bad service-He is not fookin Crouch! Still woeful though. An Absolutely Disgraceful Night of Shame ![]() |

Strange. Lots of people are saying Brown was rubbish and invisible, others are saying he was united's best defender/player. I didn't really notice him that much myself, especially for the third goal, so what did he do so well?

O'shea - 5.5 Defensively good, with the ball awful Vidic - 5 Wasn't fit, sloppy Brown - 5 Never got going Heinze - 4 Terrible Ronaldo - 4 Same as above Scholes - 7 Feel sorry for him. Deserves to play in a CL final, worked his sicks off Carrick - 5 Never got going Fletcher - 5.5 Worked hard Giggs - 4 Awful Rooney - 5 FFS he's not a striker who holds the ball up with his back to goal. |
