Are people saying Rooney hasn't played well?

I am one of the guys who are sure Rooneys best days are in the past but he has been no worse than anyone else this half.

 

[Bojan11]

feck off with these corners

 

[Rado_N]

Rooney ran away from that pass

 

[FreakyJim]

Even our good is absolute shit.

 

[pseudo_canadian]

feck off with that corner. Are you kidding me?

 

[Hammerfell]

Lingard is the only player running at people and he's the furthest up the pitch. Quit the bashing!

He's overhit or overran everything he's done.

 

[Raw]

We are so fecking shit at corners.

 

[QuackQuack]

People calling for Lingard to be pulled off. He's been our most dangerous player.

His final ball has been quite poor

 

[Revan]

Short corners must die.

 

[Loublaze]

Rojo is shit

 

[Ish]

What the actual feck are we doing with corners FFS

 

[buckooo1978]

much improved first half - my biggest gripe has been Michael Owen's commentary

moving the ball much faster and the players are getting more space to operate in....

give it 10 minutes and see if Lingard needs replaced by Memphis/Darmian and move Young to LW

with the control we have surely we can use Herrera in place of Carrick or Bastian?

 

[Irrational.]

feck off with the short corner. FFS.

 

[LARulz]

Lingard has to go off

 

[Someone]

This corner routine is about the stupidest thing i've ever seen us do.

 

[Summit]

What is going on with these corners?

 

[Sylar]

That corner was even worse than the last one ahhahahah

 

[Tarrou]

the corners, deary me

 

[Speak]

You just don't see Carrick play passes like that as often as Blind, Carrick uses the ball brilliantly but he doesn't have the end product Blind does.

No way is Blind a better passer than Carrick.
His 'end product' or 'killer balls' consists of a long ball over the top. That's it. It's impressive, but Carrick's driven pass between the lines from midfield is more impressive.

Passing from midfield is harder than passing from defence too, and Blind doesn't look as good at passing when he plays the holding role compared to when he plays in defence. He does better with that bit of space and time, as his one-touch/zippy passing game isn't great.

 

[VanGaalyTime]

Rojo's been taking crossing lessons from Valencia. The entire team deserve those boos for the short corners. Disgrace.

 

[dannyrhinos89]

SHORT CORNERS

Will be the death of me

 

[Drifter]

FFS Rojo crossing as been woeful.

 

[Dobba]

Dracula is better with crosses than our players.

 

[J-Stander]

Lingard for - anyone. Schweinsteiger has been impressive. Still pretty average overall.

 

[Inigo Montoya]

I'm liking this … very much !
A goal wouldn't go amiss but it'll come if we keep this up!

Are you a CSKA fan

 

[Rado_N]

Crowd getting on LVG's back a bit there?

 

[Hellboy]

get that clown out

 

[Maradona10]

Eh?

and another short corner....

 

[untitled_6899]

Lingard got worse as the game went on

Severely lacking any quality in his final ball

 

[Angelinho]

Much more positive, better tempo, but still no goals

 

[ottosec]

Those short corners are fecking terrible.

 

[Joemo]

Take Lingard off for Herrera. He's trying but it's just not coming off for him.

 

[the hea]

Jesus fecking christ these fecking short corners are so stupid.

 

[Organic Potatoes]

Again, what the serious feck are we doing on corners?

 

[pauldyson1uk]

hate to hear the crowd shouting ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK so early in a game.

 

[Smores]

CSKA look suprisingly poor so far, wish we'd have grabbed a goal as worry they'll come out much improved

 

[Blodssvik]

CSKA know they can get a 0-0 with great probability just by doing nothing.

 

[Razvan]

Was that booing after the whistle?

 

[United22]

Lingard stinking up the place. Need to have Depay on...

Getting out of this game without 3 points would be a travesty

 

[Marcelinho87]

Hmm booing and 'attack, attack, attack' chants.

 

[Djemba-Djemba]

Slight boos at the end there?

Crowd are definitely turning

 

[Irrational.]

A much better showing, CSKA have parked the bus but it is up to us to quicken the tempo and get through.
