Was good in the first half, even defended well but forgettable second half performance. Needs to step up his game but same could be said about most of our players.

'Here we can see the Moyesian deskilling phenomenon in full effect. Remarkable in its swiftness and totality, before long the Mata will blend completely into its surroundings making only rare noticeable appearances on the pitch'.
You sure? Didnt we only win the one with him? 0-1 last season.After reading on Facebook that Mata has won more games at OT playing for Chelsea than us!
That's what I was expecting today to be; the lineup pretty much looked like it would do.please see how shitty play david silva. moyes should do the same. is it so difficult? and with the absence of rvp, why not play roon as the striker and mata in the hole. unbelievable
Yeah, I was livid about that. We're a couple of goals down and what does Moyes do? Takes the best and most prolific striker in our team and asks him to play deeper. WTF?!It doesn't help Mata's cause Rooney having to be a striker, midfielder, and a defender.
Why "definitely" ? Spain are overloaded with similar players and who have been performing much better than him.He will definitely go to the World Cup, just probably won't start. He's been one of our best players since he signed, was poor last night but will only get better.
They've got loads of very good players but he's world class, been part of successful squads before and it would be mental to leave him out.Why "definitely" ? Spain are overloaded with similar players and who have been performing much better than him.
I was gonna bring that point up but you did, I think honestly Mata had more chances of playing for Spain by staying for Chelsea. He didn't have the same playing time but looked a lot better in the first few months of the season despite not being at his best.They've got loads of very good players but he's world class, been part of successful squads before and it would be mental to leave him out.
Only just realised he wasn't in the most recent squad though. You might well have a point.
Their midfield talent is mental.
Midfielders: Xavi Hernandez, Sergio Busquets, Andres Iniesta, Cesc Fabregas (all Barcelona), Xabi Alonso (Real Madrid), David Silva (Manchester City), Thiago Alcantara (Bayern Munich), Koke (Atletico Madrid), Santi Cazorla (Arsenal), Pedro Rodriguez (Barcelona), Jesus Navas (Manchester City)
Astonishingly we haven't won at Old Trafford since he came apart from the first game against Cardiff.You sure? Didnt we only win the one with him? 0-1 last season.
