Berba would have helped. CM looks weak though.Actually, with the possession we had, this game needed a Berba so close to their goal

Agreed.Why the feck are people blaming our midfield. De Gea isn't having the greatest of matches and Rio had a bit of a shocker. Some of you are fecking idiots.
I'd be very disappointment if that happened. Think Ferguson knows that taking him off will really harm him so may keep him on. But also because he's not exactly going to write of his new goalkeeper after 45 minutes.it will be even worse for confidence if SAF decides to substitute him
Yeah, Jamie just said that.I remember hearing something that De Gea let in more long range goals than any other keeper in La Liga. Just a random thing.
Good summary. We've played better, but Man City's surprise goal has shaken us. Then we've become a bit complacent with our defending. We shouldn't be losing this game, but we are. Need to sharpen up and play with more cutting edge in the second half and we can get back in it.We haven't lacked creativity. We should've scored by now. We had 66% possession at half an hour and we were literally all over them. Passing through their backline for fun. But since they scored we've completely lost our heads.
They couldn't get in the game while it was 0-0 but since the first one went in our positioning has gone to pot. Literally the team is all over the place and that was illustrated graphically by the second goal. Dzeko could've driven a tank through the middle of us even though the Keeper really should've done better.
Its worrying to see us lose our heads like that just cos we go 1-0 down. Irritating as it is we're United we shouldn't just mentally collapse when we concede.
Ball possession is useless unless you use the ball wisely. How many assists had Carrick or Anderson produced?We haven't lacked creativity. We should've scored by now.

Not enough clear chances with 60% possHow many chances have we created ?
Must blame someone. Welbeck has been good.Don't really know why people are picking on Webeck, he's had some great link up play.
The CS winner never wins the League, so there is hopeLosing this match never bothers me, neither does winning give me a glimmer of what's to come. United lost something like three or four on the trot just over a decade ago, including Arsenal thumping them 3-0. United went on to do The Treble that season.
It was a huge gamble by SAF and club to go for such a young keeper. I'm sure it will take some time for him to acclimate to the league. It took Reina a couple years and now he's pretty damn good.I miss Edwin van der Sar.
On the de Gea issue, he had a bit of a reputation in Spain for being dodgy on long rangers.
The first goal was a young keepers mistake, those will happen as he gets experience, but the second could be an issue.
Theyre fecking retardedI forgot how funny the Match Day threads are
Nah we still few months away from 2012.devilish with his usual the world is ending propaganda![]()
O'Shea's fault?Attacking wise we've been decent, just some bad defending on the first goal and a mistake for the second.
11 goals concede from over 25 yds for De Gea last year.![]()
relax, it's good he gets a game this intense before the season starts, right? Now he'll know what's coming at him and what life's like here. The only thing is for him to keep a calm head and learn from all this now.blodoy hell de gea sort yourselves out..![]()
Would a new CM prevent the world ending?Nah we're still a year away from 2012.
on both in factDefinitly on the second goal.
Everyone is recycling this stat, but it means nothing in isolation.11 goals concede from over 25 yds for De Gea last year.![]()
