It still feels as if no one has played particularly well

 

[Trizy]

I just woke up someone give me cliff notes of the first half?

United the better team, more possession, more shots, more chances or half chances really. CSKA done nothing.

 

[Hostekule]

That No To Racism ad just showing how many footballers have strangely shaped heads

Racist.

 

[Spock]

This just isn't working. It's not the result of one player being off form or the tactics demanding too much deliberate buildup play.

There's a lack of energy, guile and risk-taking in the last third. It's all so predictable and thus easy to defend. If we're going to continue this way we'll need a moment of magic out of nowhere to dig out the 1-0 win.

 

[christinaa]

The effort don't deserve it. I see our players trying hard and they should be encouraged for that, not boo-ed. The 'attack' chants are unnecessary too considering we've been going at the CSKA defence all half.

I agree - this was a very good and dominating first half from us.

We have to take care too because CSKA are dangerous on the counter-attack, but I'm quite happy till now.

All we needed was the final shot.

 

[pseudo_canadian]

Just score a goal please. I don't care how, just score. a. goal.

 

[Smores]

The effort don't deserve it. I see our players trying hard and they should be encouraged for that, not boo-ed. The 'attack' chants are unnecessary too considering we've been going at the CSKA defence all half.

We've always shouted attack, you saying we should stop just in case LvG takes it the wrong way and gets upset?

 

[Vilev]

Finally we are playing some decent football in a decent temp, but we have been playing so slow and shit for so long that it seems our attacking players just off the edge, including Martial. Can't really make all this dominance count.

 

[JustAFan]

Another half another goose egg on the board

 

[simonhch]

I arrived in late, cut me some slack

You weren't late you were at a meeting, it's impossible for you to be in two places at one time, for people to write otherwise is just crazy and why I am not so happy. This, I think is hard to believe that you can say you are late when you don't not know. How is this possible, you are with the Uefa you can't be also in here at the same time. People have also said that Pexbo was late but I am very happy with him because he rushed home to put on his suit before coming to the thread and he was very quick about it.

 

[The Law of Denis]

If we are going to do all these long balls we might as well throw Fellaini on

 

[Cina]

It still feels as if no one has played particularly well

I think most of the team, bar Lingard, have been solid, but yeah, no real stand outs so far.

 

[Raw]

How come no one can cross?

 

[SqueakyWeasel]

Nice start again

 

[LARulz]

More of that please Lingard

 

[simonhch]

Martial really has some wheels.

 

[Bastian]

short corner followed by fast break?

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Jeez, Lingard

 

[UnitedinRed]

That half did not deserve the booing, (if thats what it was) OK we did not score but played decent enough.

If we were losing or being outplayed you could perhaps excuse it. Otherwise its pathetic. No doubt someone will point out they paid good money but nobody forced then to go. Why boo?

And BT now stealing our chants. Bastards.

Hmmmm, apparently fly we've never gone 4 games without scoring but suddenly it was 1992 when it last happened.... BT = morons.

 

[Sylar]

What a great ball in there from Lingard, nobody fooking attacked it!!

 

[Cina]

Martial really has some wheels.

Racist.

 

[pseudo_canadian]

God fecking dammit.

 

[Bastian]

OK let's hope that corner means we've learned.

 

[Rado_N]

Rojo should be on a hattrick

 

[Oo0AahCantona]

fecking finish!

 

[Raw]

Agh come the feck on Rojo

 

[Livewire1974]

The last time we went 4 games without a goal was 1992.

 

[Viggers]

I could watch Mata control long passes all day long. That shit makes me hard.

 

[Red Pavan]

SCORE FFS

 

[LARulz]

Should have scored to be honest, at least get it on target

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Rojo!!!! Of all the players for chances to fall to

 

[Drifter]

Much better .

 

[DM07]

Chance from a long corner. Surprise!

 

[El Zoido]

Why are we so bad at hitting the target?

 

[DWelbz19]

should've scored again, Marcos.

 

[christinaa]

What a chance for Rojo!

We can't keep missing these chances.

 

[GifLord]

Rojo chance #2

 

[Inigo Montoya]

4 chances?? He's leading our goal attempts?

 

[LARulz]

Why are we so bad at hitting the target?

Lack of practice

 

[Shark]

What a great ball in there from Lingard, nobody fooking attacked it!!

That's happened countless times this season already. You'd think if we had someone like Hernandez or RVP in there, they'd be tucked away. A poacher.
