Looked pretty shit to me. Shame it was him who scored. He did bugger all else.
He's our own Evita Peron. The reincarnation of Shirley Temple.Maybe its just me but it Rooney was in Welbeck's place, playing for Chelsea, Arsenal, City whatever and he celebrated his goal wildly he would get a ton of abouse.
But our danny boy, people applaud him, people are happy for him (happy that he scored a winning goal which has sent us out of FA Cup) and dont see anything wrong with it.
Yeah but with Law it seems genuine (looking at photos) it's so insincerely over the top now. I didn't expect him to celebrate but I don't mind that he did, much like I don't think Arsenal fans should care about RVP celebrating against them. It was hardly like Tevez celebrating against us in fairnessTo be honest, I quite like former players not celebrating. It's one of the remarkable things that adds to Denis Law's story with us. Having said that I don't begrudge a player for celebrating and in Welbeck's case it was largely muted as well. Anyone kicking up a fuss about it needs to sort their priorities out.
ABUs being ABUs.Can't believe the media's portrayel today is that we lost on on selling him and using Falcao as a stick to but us with. Other than the goal last night, he was poor. LVG has got a fair few decisions wrong this year, however selling Welbeck wasn't one of them.
Well I doubt he'll receive a dodgy back-pass in both the semi-final and final.If Danny played like he did yesterday and continuously kept scoring, he'd be very highly rated because of the goals he scores.
Game in game out, you'll see strikers have shite games but score the winner and get lauded by their fans. If Danny continues to play like he played yesterday and scores the winner in the Semi Final and Final, do you think the Arsenal fans will give a feck? I know I wouldn't.
Perhaps not but Welbeck worked his socks off to get that. He was constantly harrying our defenders and forcing errors. He may not get another dodgy back-pass like that but he will definitely create chances either for himself, or his teammates with the way he played last night so I think it's unfair to discredit him.Well I doubt he'll receive a dodgy back-pass in both the semi-final and final.
He won't get gift wrapped opportunities like yesterdays game in game out.If Danny played like he did yesterday and continuously kept scoring, he'd be very highly rated because of the goals he scores.

Whether he does or not, if he scores and has a poor overall performance, then their fans will be over the moon.Well I doubt he'll receive a dodgy back-pass in both the semi-final and final.
Wouldn't exactly say it was gift wrapped. Still had a fair bit to do. As others have said, not sure Falcao and RVP would have scored that. Rooney, due to his lack of acceleration over 5-10 yards, would have struggled to get there before De Gea.He won't get gift wrapped opportunities like yesterdays game in game out.
He almost took the ball out of his range with his first touch, only plus is he somehow managed to stay on his feet for once. One goal doesn't change who he is.If Danny played like he did yesterday and continuously kept scoring, he'd be very highly rated because of the goals he scores.

I don't know about that, he was poor last night.Welbeck did more for Arsenal last night then RVP and Falcao have done in about 90% of their games for us this season.

Well that's sort of the point... and Falcao and RVP have been absolute garbage in about 90% of their games (granted that's not exact maths)I don't know about that, he was poor last night.
Yup. I'm saying that Welbeck did more last night than Falcao or RVP have done in 90% of their games this season. Can you let me know which part you're struggling with?Do you even know what you're saying?
If Rooney left to one of those teams because the manager didn't rate him and was not really in his plans, and so Rooney left to get regular football, I very much doubt it.Maybe its just me but it Rooney was in Welbeck's place, playing for Chelsea, Arsenal, City whatever and he celebrated his goal wildly he would get a ton of abouse.

He wanted to go. And yes he does owe the club and the fans. I don't know about your world but I personally respect a bit of loyalty. David Beckham was pushed out and had a big falling out with SAF, you never see David doing that or talk shit about the club. Danny thinks he's better than he is imho.Why should he? He gave his all whilst at the club and was pushed out the door. Danny owes nothing to MUFC club and fans.
I think Smalling was the sole architect of most of the problems he had. Danny was poor and looked well off the pace.
As for the celebration good for him. He's a professional football player who has just scored for his club in a big game back at the team which recently told him he was surplus to requirements. This whole not celebrating agaisnt your former clubs is a modern nonsense and feck knows where its started from - a weird and superficial affectation that's all. It's a fashion and hopefully, like all fashions, it will stop being the thing to do
I dont doubt it. Lots of hypocrisy all around.If Rooney left to one of those teams because the manager didn't rate him and was not really in his plans, and so Rooney left to get regular football, I very much doubt it.
Not getting top 4 will maybe cost him his job, not Welbeck.Well Van Gaal shouldn't have been horrible to him, Welbz will probably cost him his job.
Load of nonsense.Welbeck did more for Arsenal last night then RVP and Falcao have done in about 90% of their games for us this season.
Standing ovation I think. Heard a few Chelsea fans hate him now though, but don't think it's too many of them.How did the Chelsea fans react to Lampard again?
Right, because RVP and Falcao have been brilliant in most of their games this season. Have added a ton of movement too our forward line, scored a shit load of goals, won us games, and we don't have a striker problem....Load of nonsense.
Yeah fe.k me, you act as if Welbeck was brilliant last night or sthing and he clearly wasnt.Right, because RVP and Falcao have been brilliant in most of their games this season.

Feck Me
Was thinking after the Etihad game but I just remembered he didn't celebrate. Think a few Chelsea fans are a bit off by him but that's due to the lack of truthfulness behind his City move.Standing ovation I think. Heard a few Chelsea fans hate him now though, but don't think it's too many of them.
I clearly haven't... the point, if you take a moment and actually have a think - is that a poor Welbeck was still more effective then RVP and Falcao have been this season.Yeah fe.k me, you act as if Welbeck was brilliant last night or sthing and he clearly wasnt.
I think they applauded him when he came on at Stamford Bridge too, it might have been mixed, a bit like with Welbeck though.Was thinking after the Etihad game but I just remembered he didn't celebrate.

Same, and yes he was.Big Danny fan, always have been. He was actually pretty awful yesterday though.
He was very poor - but he at least offered something with his pace & running - which isn't much, but yeah... it's something. Also he was constantly reducing the time our CB's and Blind had on the ball, which meant none of them were as assured on the ball as they normally are (or in Smalling terms, completely useless).Big Danny fan, always have been. He was actually pretty awful yesterday though.
