Swansea City 2:1 Manchester United

vibe · Aug 30, 2015

Can't complain off of that, pen or not, Swansea played us off the pitch today, well deserved win for them.

Hopefully this quells all the absolute tripe about us challenging for the title. Let's make sure we're in top 4 first.

Major major concerns here.

Creepy · Aug 30, 2015

Rooney.... You cant make this shit up. He reminds me of Torres. Brutal.

One word for LVG would be - Rigid

Not a progressive manager like SAF, making a team around some brain dead and rigid play, with players too afraid to take other players on

Will Singh · Aug 30, 2015

LVG tried to play like Barca if it doesn't work then just play like Stoke!

minoo-utd · Aug 30, 2015

We always lose the game in our heads first.

Rooney in Paris · Aug 30, 2015

Excellent first touch and nutmeg, but should've shot much quicker. He's thinking too much, his instincts aren't back yet.

Not exactly inspiring replacements though.

Better than what we have i pitch though.

And LVG has only himself to blame for not improving that area.

World Game · Aug 30, 2015

If Rooney was left footed we woulda scored another 3 today :lol:

HabeasC · Aug 30, 2015

As a defender all you have to do is put Rooney on his left foot and he'll do jack.

LitterBug · Aug 30, 2015

I can't believe our main and only striker is so low on confidence that he chose to play for a penalty rather then bury his chance. This is fecking frustrating!!!!!

Escobar · Aug 30, 2015

just fecking shoot

GifLord · Aug 30, 2015

Rooney chance

askabob · Aug 30, 2015

That was pathetic from the captain.

Away to swansea is one of the most difficult games of the season, it's hardly a disaster to be losing this

Agreed.

Still annoying that a) we've played like rambling idiots at times and b) LVG seems to not see the glaring deficiencies in our squad/team

How can he not shield the ball enough or atleast shoot quickly enough there? It's unbelievably poor. He does well to create the space and blows the easiest part. He's just got to swing that fat leg of his and it's a goal

He didnt need to shield. Just take the shot quickly.

Same old shit

Water Melon · Aug 30, 2015

Louis will be asked certain questions, and I hope he has answers. If not, throw the money at Klopp.

JustAFan · Aug 30, 2015

We need at least another 500mil spending before we can even hope to contend

Ronnie O'Sullivan · Aug 30, 2015

Wonderful, lost to Swansea in the league 3 times in a row. SAF would have ordered executions.

Mr Anderson · Aug 30, 2015

Not a good day for Depay

#07 · Aug 30, 2015

Is Rooney allergic to taking the shot early? As soon as he was around should've hit it with his left. Took the extra touch and got tackled. Van Persie would've buried that.

Shane88 · Aug 30, 2015

Puke football.

Vidicious · Aug 30, 2015

Losing to Swansea City 3 times in a row. Christ.

dive

Nah, it wasn't a dive. Excellent defending by whoever the Swansea player who dispossessed Rooney and nudged him away. Never a peno, but not a dive either.

Yep. Williams won it fair and square, he knew he'd fecked up the chance so he desperately asked for it.

LeftyBlaster · Aug 30, 2015

p-a-t-h-e-t-i-c

Hellboy · Aug 30, 2015

Depay, Schweini, Rooney and Romero cost us today.

Bojan11 · Aug 30, 2015

That was never a penalty.

This is what really annoys me. I like the option that Fellaini gives us, but don't just target him from everywhere on the pitch ffs. Get it into good positions and them aim it towards him like his goal last week.

Rooney dallies on it again ffs.

Agreed.

"Happy with squad"

He didn't play for a penalty, he's just slow and lost the chance.

He's a fecking professional footballer, captain of Man Utd, leading goalscorer in England's history or some shtick like that...ffs he doesn't have to be left footed - he just had to actually TRY and shoot with his left foot instead of being scared of doing so.

DevilRed · Aug 30, 2015

Rooney's typically going to take another few weeks to round into form. Same thing every year with him and Carrick.

We've not had a shot since it went to 2-1.

It's just not good enough

It appears LVG doesn't know how to handle situation by thinking on his feet unfortunately

Twice Rooney has been one on one and refused to shoot with his left foot - BOTH TIMES he cut it back into the course of the recovering defender Williams who just nicked it off him...TWICE!!!!

Not forgetting the pathetic chip when he should have fracking twatted it.
LVGs fault.

No, mate, get with the script - we've had a good window.

Shaw is a fecking clown.
