We are such an ordinary team right now that it hurts. What on earth was Fergie doing with his subs tonight? He's making the same mistakes again and again. He just waits so bloody long. How exactly did Jones play the full match today?

4 points from Stoke and West Ham away isn't bad, we are on the right track here.

Ferdinand was pretty terrible out there. Are Evans and Smalling injured? Vidic was having to do the job of both defenders against West Ham's hoof it and lump it tactic.

And the last five minutes or so, when we should have been pushing for the winner, it looked like our players were incapable of controlling the ball.

I don't usually lose the plot but feck sake I'm pissed.
Jones isn't a CM , stop trying to play him all over the fecking pitch.
Andy Carroll is fecking horseshit infested cuntswallop, Rio needs to stop with the fecking long balls, half the team need to actually give a feck, and our tactics lately have been fecking abysmal.

Yeah coming back from behind twice is so ordinary.

Feck off.

United do it the hard way because fergie invariably messes the tactics up when you least expect.

I dont think we will beat villa - this will go to the wire. we dont have a midfield.

Keeping Jones on and taking Kagawa off was the most stupid decision i've seen this year.
This this and this.

Kagawa made both our goals with a bit of magic, and he takes him off?!?!!

My head hurts

Fair result, we have a 13 point lead, citys next game is a tough one away to spurs on sunday, and we have villa at home on monday.

No reason for panic.

I am frustrated with our performance more than the result. If I had been told on Saturday we would get 4 pts from these 2 away's I think I would have snapped your hand off.

Just felt like we were not sure if we should really go for it or not, felt very lacklustre and slow.

Another point ticked off tho, shame Wigan were so close to doing us a favour.

We're by no means ordinary, but we're nowhere near ruthless enough. We're efficient, and do what needs to be done. Lately however, we've been doing the bare minimum. I'm just pissed at our tactics, has he suddenly lost faith in Cleverely that he felt the need to put Jones beside him who literally looked and acted like Beaker from the muppets.

The one time we looked interested was when we were down. Both times that we equalised, we completely lost any tempo. Why can't we play that way without waiting to go down?!

Er...sorry...near Southampton.
I'd like to see how we play with all the players who are on form playing in their own positions with subs made at around 70 mins. And no Giggs. (Sorry, Ryan - but no more this season.)

i think the biggest fear I have in the Arsenal and Chelsea games is Fergie will pull a crazy team selection like Scholes or Giggs in midfield or Rooney out wide.

Why was Kagawa taken off?

fergie set us up 442 but kagwa is better coming infield. Then Jones was given some stupid instructions to play past Rooney and Rooney to drop deep.

Sky being useless at maths. If City lost on Sunday we can still win it on Monday nigh.
