3-1.. all is wellGood win in the end... Second half wasn't amazing but it was a hell of a lot better. First half arguably worst half I've seen from us in a long, long time. Southampton drew at home which is huge for us as well. In third, 2 clear of Arsenal in 5th, 1 ahead of Southampton, 4 ahead of Spurs, 5 in front of Liverpool. Need to improve though.
It's written in his contract. Otherwise, he'd be found out as not Utd quality.And Jones injured again?
shocking can't give a player 0Wank performance but we got the win. I'm just worried that our results will get found out against some of the better teams.Herrera with another good performance but what does that matter?Why can't you give a player 0 as a rating?OT - Love the coverage the Americans get, one game finishes they switch for the last 10 mins of anotherHaving serious doubts about top 4 right now.Another team rolling over for the LVG juggernaut. Looks like title is on.3 points in the bag and encouraging to see us make OT more of a fortress this season.
Not the best performance ever but we are getting to that period where it doesn't matter how you win anymore. Its how many points you pick up. At this point I could give a toss if we put Fellaini upfront and hoofed it for the rest of the season as long as we get top 4. We can sort out the pretty football over the summer and what not.
ADM was MoM for me. Full of running and our most dangerous player by far. I thought the introduction of Herrera improved our passing a lot and I believe it was Herrera who put ADM through on the break at least twice.
Hopefully no long term injuries to Jones and Blind. Having said that, Smalling was immense today. He has really come to the fore after that red card against citeh.Right - 3 points - job done. United really need to get themselves in order. Have to do much much better.Di Maria was much more involved which was promising considering what his just been through on a personal level
We're back into 3rd at this moment.Much much better second half. Smalling improved defensively and post 60 minutes when Burnley ran out of legs to press, our death by possession football did the job.LVG didn't look happy going back to the changing room.
Me too. I think top 2 is real possibility.
So LVG got it wrong the first time again. We have to thank the football Gods that Jones had to be subbed.Moyesesque. Regression on a grand scale. Hopefully there's somebody with enough balls to sit the big stubborn orange bollox down and tell him enough is enough. I will weep salty tears of despair if we start with RVP and Falcao up front next time out.Their goal was one I'd of been proud for us to score … the cross was a beauty!Kevin was not our Friend today!
As I predicted we scored 3 goals but in no way walked the game.
Oh and I'm sad for Falcao.Burney really are the most attractive group of players, aren't they? Juicy stuff.Don't mind Jones injured or Evans for that matter But will miss Blind. As long as Herrera gets a chance though...
Well then he better do something about it.Who would've thought that Smalling would score 2 goals(both in the 1st half!) after he came on?! Great match by him, and I have to say it got better when Herrera came on aswell. Blind started very slow imo. Anyways really happy with the result, not that happy with the performance, even though it got better in the 2nd. Falcao didn't score in this match either, but he got one assist at least!
He has to. he needs to be starting even if blind is backDon't mind Jones injured or Evans for that matter But will miss Blind. As long as Herrera gets a chance though...
We won but if we do not shape up and fast we will miss out on the top 4. It's quite worrying our play style.Evans shouldn't see the pitch in a premier Manchester United 11. He has lost a step and his passing isn't good enough.
Hopefully we will b play a 442 from now on.

Valencia. rojo. Smalling. Shaw
Adm. Herrera. Blind. Young
Rooney. Rvp
I can't read this without thinking "GREASE"
Yeah probably because he has to concede that 433/4231 is the best formation for us and the we did play better in the second half because of it and obviously Herrera did help us control the midfield a little better
That was the only other score I was watchingSouthampton draw
Although I did notice that Chelsea scored on 89 mins !! Would like to see Di Maria out wide more often rather than in the middle it's evident he's much more dangerous out there!Only managed to catch the second half, but it seems like Smalling really saved our butts from another embarrassing result.
Di Maria looked decent in the second half, seems like he's finally managing to get to grips with the Premier League style of play. Was inventive as well as industrious.
oh, I missed the memo. We went from 3-5-2 to 4-4-2 diamond is the best and now it's the 4-3-3 and the 4-2-3-1?
I'm in general pretty positive about the state of the club right now.- Status
